Justin Bieber Sings About Killing Black People, Joining KKK In New Video (Video)

And for his next trick…a 14-year-old Justin Bieber did a horribly racist version of his own song 5 years ago … looking into the camera and singing … “There’ll be one less lonely n*****.”

 
We’re told when Justin was 14 … he had seen a random video online in which a comedian parodied his song, “One Less Lonely Girl,” but the guy replaced the word “girl” with the n-word.

Justin then parodied the parody … right on camera.

We’re told years ago Justin told both Usher and Will Smith about the videos, saying he knew almost immediately it was a stupid thing to do … Usher took him into a room and showed him historically racist videos to drive home how hurtful these words can be.

Bieber and his team say various people have tried to extort him over the last few years — demanding money for both this video and the one he made when he was 15. Justin says he will not be shaken down anymore. He says he wants people to see the video and he wants to accept responsibility.

Justin apologized several days ago … saying, “I thought it was OK to repeat hurtful words and jokes, but didn’t realize at the time that it wasn’t funny and that in fact my actions were continuing the ignorance.”

Rihanna Twerks Her Cakes In A See Through Dress At CFDA Fashion Awards (Video)

2014 CFDA Fashion Awards - Cocktails
 
Rihanna shined bright like a diamond Monday night at the annual CFDA Awards in New York. Amongst some of the biggest names in fashion, Ri Ri was honored with an Icon Award. Afterward, she celebrated backstage with some twerking. Below is footage and a transcript of her acceptance speech.
 


 
 


Growing up I didn’t have a lot of access to fashion. But as far as I could remember, fashion has always been my defense mechanism. Even as a child I remember thinking, “She can beat me, but she cannot beat my outfit.” [Laughter and cheers.] And to this day I mean, that is how I think about it. I can compensate for all my weaknesses with my fashion. And so really, you really can … I enjoy the most that you can tell so much about who someone is just by their style — the way they put fashion together. And I think fashion has been an outlet for me to express myself, to speak up, to say who I am and to be very loud about it at times, and I just like to have fun with it. Fashion is just a world of thrills, it’s exciting, there’s no rules, there’s just … I mean, SHE has tons of rules [gestures at Anna Wintour, audience laughs] … Scratch that! Scratch that! [More audience laughter.] There are RULES! But rules are meant to be broken. [Audience cheers and claps.]

I want to thank MAC for being so supportive and for keeping my face so cute. I want to thank all of the stylists who I’ve worked with because it’s steps, it’s stages to get here, and now I can’t believe that we’re here at the CFDA awards. Mel Ottenberg, thank you! You GET ME. You honestly get me, and you understand what I’m trying to say. I can send you two pictures, and you bring back the rack full of exactly what I wanted. There’s nothing better than that because fashion should never be frustrating. It should be fun! Make it easy to me. I want to thank everybody here tonight, my friends, my family for being supportive, thank you guys! Good night.

Oh For Real: Justin Bieber Caught Using N-word In Racist Joke (Video)

Pop star Justin Bieber was caught on camera dropping the N-word, while telling a tasteless joke to pals.
Bieber is seen sitting on a couch with a woman, whose face has been blurred out, when he asks, “Why are black people afraid of chain saw?”


A male pal off camera tried to stop Bieber from finishing the joke: “Dont even say it, don’t say it,” according to the video posted on the London Sun’s website.
But Bieber can’t help himself and delivered the nasty punchline: “Run n–ger, n–ger, n–ger, n–ger, n–ger.”
The Sun reported that Bieber’s team knew about the offensive video clip and had offered big bucks to keep it quiet.
A rep for the puny pop star could not be immediately reached for comment.
Bieber, 20, was believed to be 17, still sporting his signature mop top, when the video was recorded.

Chris Brown & Drake Battling It Out For Rihanna…Again?

Grammy-winning singer Rihanna is proving she’s worthy of some serious attention as reports claim one-time music rivals Chris Brown and Drake both have their eyes set on their former girlfriend.

 
According to reports, Chris Breezy has started to rekindle the flame with RiRi. R&B star Brown — who just completed a 90-day stint in anger management rehab — has been texting the “Diamonds” singer, and friends say they’re “freaking out” that Rihanna could rekindle a romance with Brown. At the same time, the sexy singer performed and partied with Drake in Paris, sparking rumors of a relationship. “Chris started texting Rihanna on her birthday [Feb. 20], and the two have been sending each other a flurry of texts ever since,” said a source close to the singers. (New York Post)
Reports claim RiRi eventually responded to Chris Breezy’s texts and has kept in contact.
“Rihanna didn’t write back right away .?.?. but later that night she started getting sentimental and texted back, ‘thank you,’ and asked how he was,” our source added. “Since then, the two haven’t stopped texting each other and friends are freaked out that she’s going to start dating him again.” Brown infamously assaulted Rihanna in 2009, but the pair reportedly engaged in an on-again-off-again relationship when a restraining order against Brown expired in 2011. (New York Post)

Earlier this week, Drake hooked up with the R&B vixen during one of his Paris concerts.
Drake and Rihanna brought some sizzle to the stage when his “Would You Like a Tour?” rolled through Paris on Tuesday. The crowd went wild when the Barbados babe joined Drizzy onstage at Paris-Bercy for the first live performance of “Take Care.” They showed off their chemistry during the intimate set, cozying up to each other. RiRi also performed her strip club anthem “Pour It Up,” while Drake danced alongside her. “RIH,” wrote Drake. (Rap-Up)

A few days prior, Drizzy and RiRi were spotted hanging out together.
Rihanna is one lucky lady! The singer showed up to L’Avenue, one of Paris’ most famous celebrity hotspots, on Feb.23 to have dinner with her on-and-off again boyfriend, Drake. It looks like Rihanna, 26, and Drake, 27, are still going strong! The singers met up for the second time this month, and just in time to celebrate Rihanna’s 26th birthday, which she celebrated just a few days earlier. (Hollywood Life)

WINNING: Rihanna Bags $10M in Settlement Against Former Accountant

I can’t even imagine how salty Peter Gounis and the firm Berdon LLP must feel right now. While they’ve taken a major "L", Rihanna is rolling in the dough!

Rihanna's former accountant nearly drove her to bankruptcy after giving bad financial advice, and now the pop superstar is getting restitution in the form of $10 million. She sued accountant Peter Gounis and the firm Berdon LLP, claiming he gave her the go-ahead to buy a $7 million home, despite the fact she was bleeding cash at the time.

After being guided into buying the home and making other financial mistakes through her accountant, Rihanna was left with just $2 million at the end of 2009. Her lawyers claim that Gounis was aware that the home she bought was badly in need of repair, due to water and mold damage, leaving her to foot a $1 million bill to fix the place. She eventually sold the home at a $2 million loss, and later dropped the accountant, suing him for $35 million in 2012.

Berdon LLC has reportedly chose to settle for $10 million, and the papers are lined up to be signed this week.

Rihanna's financial situation has greatly improved over the years since dropping Gounis, with her net worth hovering around $43 million.

 
The lesson here kids is...ALWAYS do your own books!

Rihanna Announced As The New Face Of Balmain (Pics)

Erykah Badu will be a part of Givenchy's Spring 2014 campaign and now Rihanna announced she is the new face of Balmain. Described as an "icon" by the label's creative director, Olivier Rousteing, the singer stars in the forthcoming spring/summer 2014 campaign - due to appear in magazines from January.

rihanna balmain
 
Rihanna's love affair with the fashion industry is apparent. The pop star is the executive producer of the fashion reality show "Styled to Rock," she designs a signature collection of threads for River Island, her Instagram feed is a virtual runway showing off her impressive collection of designer duds and jealousy-inducing adventures amongst fashion royalty.

And it's safe to say that fashion loves her back. Case in point, Rihanna has been tapped as the new face of Balmain.

 We're not completely shocked by the news -- Rihanna and Balmain's creative director, Olivier Rousteing, haven't been shy about their friendship and admiration for each other.
"When the woman that inspires you wears your creations, your vision feels complete," Rousteing told WWD.

The 27-year-old designer says working with RiRi was "a dream come true" and that the Barbadian beauty is uncompromising, fresh, modern and the "icon" of his generation.
"Rihanna embodies my vision of Balmain in this new campaign," Rousteing said. "In front of the camera, she makes you feel like she is the only girl in the world."
The campaign was shot in New York City last month by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. RiRi, who was styled by her personal stylist Mel Ottenberg for the project, looks like she's in a steam room where she's providing all the heat needed in two ensembles by the famed French fashion house. One ad shows the "Diamonds" singer dressed in a pink-and-white Kimono style coat accessorized with white lace gold-toed and heeled booties, while the other is an edgy off-the-shoulders denim-and-gold chain getup.

This marks the second music star to land a major spring 2014 fashion campaign, after Givenchy revealed that Erykah Badu would be fronting their new ads. Move over supermodels!

Drake & Rihanna Light Up The Dating Rumors Again, Steamy Hook-Up Goes On All Night

Young Money star Drake and Rihanna can't seem to stay clear of the dating rumors as reports claim they spent some quality time together earlier this week in Los Angeles.

 
 
Reports Sohh:
 
According to reports, Drizzy and RiRi were together at an after party Monday (November 25) night.

Rihanna and Drake have people whispering yet again if they’re an item or not after the two partied together in Los Angeles following the rapper’s L.A. concert last night. Bootsy Bellows in West Hollywood was where Drake hosted his exclusive after party, which saw Rihanna arrive around 1 a.m. She left close to 4/4:30 a.m. Besides helping him celebrate, her mere presence is all anyone has to go on regarding their dating status. (Holly Scoop)

According to exotic dancer Jhonni Blaze, Drizzy and RiRi recently lived it up during an outing at a Houston strip club.

Jhonni Blaze, who says that she danced for the pair for over three hours last night, exclusively told E! News that Rihanna arrived at V Live Gentlemen’s Club alone at around 2 a.m. and, half an hour later, Drake showed up and asked club security to move Rihanna over to his section. “I bet you want to be sitting with Drake, right?” Blaze said she overheard a security guard asking Rihanna, who smiled and said yes. And once they were together, they “looked like a couple,” sat very close to each other and were even dressed alike, Blaze recalled. She said the two were “really cool people” and that Rihanna even gave her advice about her budding singing career, telling the dancer to “dream big” and not be afraid to put herself out there. (E!

Men lie, women like, Rihanna’s #s don’t. Last night, Ri Ri was honored the AMA’s first Iconic Award and graced the stage for her single, “Diamonds”. Afterwards, she received her award from her mother and even got a message from Hov. Congrats to Ri Ri but she could've done a better job with her wig though.

It all started when Chris, who you may remember from his “Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop”/”No Better Love” Rocafella days as part of the group Young Gunz aka Chris and Neef, posted a yacht photo on his Instagram for Throwback Thursday. Chris eventually deleted the photo but not before it went viral, sending Twitter into a tailspin over whether or not the naked woman on his lap was a young RihRih.

Oh Wow: Rihanna Shines Bright Atop Hot Tours With $68 Million

Rihanna ranks at No. 1 on Hot Tours with sales reported from her Diamonds world tour’s European jaunt that spanned nine weeks from late May through the end of July. Ticket sales from the summertime swing through 14 countries totaled more than $68 million from 34 performances. The top grosser among the summer dates was a two-show stand in London on June 15-16 at Twickenham Stadium. With an attendance of 95,971 for both nights, sales at the 82,000-seat rugby venue topped £5.5 million ($8.6 million US$).

 
 
Reports Billboard:
 
The Diamonds tour, in support of Rihanna’s 2012 album Unapologetic, kicked off on March 8 in Buffalo, N.Y. and played U.S. and Canadian arenas through May 7, closing with a packed house at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. With revenue from the European dates added, the tour’s overall gross passed the $100 million mark from more than 1.2 million sold tickets. Following the run through Europe, the Barbadian singer spent September and October on brief jaunts through markets in Asia, Australia/New Zealand and South Africa as well as stops in Abu Dhabi and Tel Aviv. She is currently on the road for a final North American trek that wraps on Nov. 15 in New Orleans.

Brad Paisley lands at No. 2 among the week’s top-grossing tours with $5.7 million in revenue from eight Canadian markets during a fall swing of his Beat This Summer tour. The lone September date in the mix was a two-show engagement in St. John’s, Newfoundland with more than 10,000 fans in attendance at the Mile One Centre. The remaining seven shows all occurred during October, and the Edmonton concert on Oct. 26 produced the largest crowd. A sold out show at the city’s 16,000-seat Rexall Place drew more than 12,000 fans.
