She is indeed the only girl in the world! Rihanna has sold more that 10 million records in the UK. The S&M singer, who recently won the Best International Female Artist at The Brit Awards, achieved the milestone after surpassing 10 million sales of her albums since her first release, Music of The Sun, back in 2005. RiRi’s current LP Loud is said to have sold over a million copies already in the UK, despite only being released last November  – giving the 23-year old her fastest-selling album to date. With this being the last album on the Def Jam label everyone is turning to Roc Nation to see what madness is going to be unleashed with Rihanna

The Rude Boy hitmaker also became the only female artist to achieve a No.1 single in five consecutive years, as well as her 2007 hit Umbrella holding the top spot for the longest amount of time over the last ten years.

Nicki Minaj has talked about how she can’t trust that all her Twitter followers are true supporters. At times I do wonder about Nicki Minaj, with this only being a début project, has the fame got to her and made her very insecure and paranoid? She told sources: “All of those people who follow me on Twitter? They aren’t my friends. Some of them are fans, but many of them are people who hate my guts and are just waiting for me to tweet something that they can put on their blogs. Yes that may be true, but surely Nicki Minaj knew that twitter was a door wide open to spin? “It’s easy to see 2 million followers and think, ‘Look at all these people who love me!’ But not all of them love me. Whether I’m smiling or not, I know that people are always waiting for me to slip up.”- I don’t know about you, but Nicki Minaj 4 LIFE!!!

Things got hot and heavy on the set of Nelly’s “Gone” video co-starring Kelly Rowland. The collaborators hooked up in Cancun, Mexico, earlier this month to shoot the follow-up to their 2002 smash “Dilemma” with director Marc Klasfeld. In new images from the set, a shirtless Nelly and glowing Kelly are seen flirting by the pool and cuddling on the sandy shores at night. Nelly posts up at the poolside bar while Kelly reclines on a lounge chair in additional scenes.

“It’s kinda like an extension of the story,” Nelly told us of their latest duet, “and still playfully having fun with it like we did with the first one.” See more pics from the sizzling shoot before the video premieres early next month.

Legendary female rap star Lil Kim has spoken about how Jay-Z and his label, Roc Nation, have reached out to her in the past and attempted to sign her. – EW! Please please don’t! Kim said that she and Jay are really good friends and that Mr. Beyoncé understands that she is just trying to do her thing, independently, at the moment. Lil Kim was released from her five album deal with Atlantic Records, and since has operated under Queen Bee Entertainment. But if Lil Kim wants a huge release, she needs a proper label behind her“I did get offers from representatives from Roc Nation and I did get phone calls from representatives from Roc Nation. A couple representatives from Def Jam had also reached out to me.

Melody Thornton shows fans how to be a rock star in the firstepisode of her “MeloDIY” (Do It Yourself) web series, where she flaunts her dress-making skills. The former Pussycat Doll reveals her secret to applying rhinestones and gems to her customized dress, using a baby syringe filled with glue to add her own flair to an American Apparel onesie. A new mid-tempo tune from the singer can be heard in the background, touting burning synthesizers and a powerful chorus. Listen up as Melody offers her fashion tips.

Beyoncé has sparked controversy for darkening her face in a photoshoot for French fashion magazine, L’Officiel’s 90th anniversary issue. The Single Ladies hitmaker donned African-style clothing and black face make-up  magazine’s snaps, paying tribute to African musician, Fela Kuti – bad call I guess! Although many people defending the photos arguing it showed the African influence on this season’s fashion many have turned against Beyoncé “I’m not quite sure as to why she would agree to do a photoshoot that associates her with one of the most deeply rooted racist images in American history.”. Beyoncé’s management are yet to comment on the issue.

After performing at the NBA All-Star Game in Los Angeles, Rihanna raised a toast during her 23rd birthday party on Sunday night at a private home in Beverly Hills. The Bajan songstress mingled with guests including Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Mary J. Blige, Diddy, Cee Lo Green, Snoop Dogg, Zac Efron, and Christina Milian, chowing down on Sprinkles red velvetcupcakes and playing Nintendo Wii in a cutout dress with purple fringe.

M.I.A. and Amber Rose turned the streets of London into a catwalk while attending the Ashish show during London Fashion Week. The blonde Brit stood out in black boots paired with an electric blue pantsuit and olive green trenchcoat, while Kanye’s ex-girlfriend showed off her curves in a body-constricting dress, later throwing on a fur coat to brave the cold. Yeezy taught her well.

Chris Brown appeared in a downtown Los Angeles courtroom today where a judge lifted the restraining order prohibiting him from going near ex-girlfriend Rihanna, reports US sources. Judge Patricia Schnegg reduced the ban to level one, meaning that the former couple can have contact as long as Brown doesn’t “harass, annoy, or molest her.”

A solemn Breezy, wearing a gray suit, sat beside his attorney Mark Geragos, who spoke on behalf of his client. The 21-year-old singer nodded when the judge asked if he wanted to waive his next court appearance.

Rihanna’s lawyer Donald Etra appeared on her behalf, telling the judge that she had no objection to the new ruling. “I have spoken with my client and she does not object to the reduction from the stay away order to the level one, or the do not annoy, molest, or harass order,” said Etra.

Brown initially requested the removal of the restraining order after completing his 52-week domestic violence counseling last month, and will remain on probation until 2014.

Rihanna will be shooting the video to her smoldering new ballad “Skin,”. With the lyrics reading “So why you standing over there with your clothes on? Baby, strip down for me, go and take them off.” The song’s real hook is the fuzzy electric guitar that begins sawing through the melody about three minutes in, and continues building until it reaches a, er, climactic solo at the very end. I do adore the record and I suppose Rihanna will sex it up more in the video. The last minute kind of reminds us of Sade’s achingly beautiful “No Ordinary Love,”which was just as sensuous but perhaps a little (okay—a lot) less graphic, lyrically. – The video will be shot in LA later on this month. “No teasing, you waited long enough / Go deep, I’m-a throw it at you, can you catch it?” Ri Ri sings on the sultry “Skin,” as synths snake around the track before a slow beat kicks in.
