It’s the feud that has engrossed us all – and now that Katy Perry (AND inadvertently, Rihanna) have chipped in too… things have just got a whole lot better.

Following on from yesterday’s explosive social media battle between Tay-Tay Swift and a seemingly snubbed Ms Minaj, yet more A-listers have been adding in their tuppence worth.

And leading the onslaught is certainly Ms Perry, who seriously got the claws out when she accused her former BFF (and now arch nemesis) Taylor of capitalising “on the takedown of a woman”.

Tweeting to her 73million followers, the 30-year-old stated: “Finding it ironic to parade the pit women against other women argument about as one unmeasurably capitalizes on the take down of a woman…”

OUCH!

She also then dragged Rihanna, 27, into the dispute, saying the real VMA nominations travesty was that the Barbadian singer’s controversial Bi**h Better Have My Money video wasn’t eligible this year, having only been released recently.

It has long been rumoured that 25-year-old Ms Swift’s hit Bad Blood single was a less-than subtle dig at Katy over unresolved personal issues between the two.

And last September Taylor also said in an interview with Rolling Stone the song was about a female musician and “straight-up enemy”.

Katy furthermore appeared to call her one-time friend a “Regina George in sheep's clothing” on social media.

The feud reportedly ignited when three of Taylor's dancers quit to go work for Katy on her massive world tour, with Swifty explaining in the same Rolling Stone interview: “She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour.

“She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me.”

The pair have also both at one time or another dated Hollywood player, John Mayer.

Rihanna has become the victim of another alleged stalker only a year after a previous stalker had been arrested.

The 27-year old Umbrella singer has been the victim of threatening messages on social media. The man had even posted a photograph of a gun and bullets.

On April 30 the alleged stalker posted a selfie outside Riri’s home but when police arrived to the location he had left. Reports from TMZ have said that the user account from where the tweets were sent is registered under two separate names.

The police in the U.S are now tracking the suspect electronically. While the selfies outside her home are not the most pleasant, the other messages he wrote are far more disturbing.

In a tweet the man, named as Alex Mercer, wrote “Should of killed @rihanna a minute back I would be good right now. Sorcery is a weapon I use guns, bout to get a gun licence, can’t use my hands.”

In early June he posted a message saying “Imma marry @rihanna Lord willing s#omebody might die or something.”

Gossip Cop reports that some of the messages, which included Bible verses, were sent to Rihanna’s ex-boyfriend Chris Brown as well as the singer herself.

Some of the man’s tweets refer to her as his “baby momma” and others even refer to the singer’s young niece: “@rihanna tell majesty that her step uncle said happy birthday.”

His Twitter account was suspended but he appears to be using an alias in order to continue to bombard the star with messages. He even directed one to Jay-Z, whose record label Rihanna is signed with: “@S_C_ tell them in not a stalker you know me other page got suspended.”

Early in June a man was reportedly arrested after attempting to gain entry to Rihanna’s New York apartment building but was stopped by her bodyguard.  

This is not the first time Riri has had to deal with situations involving trespassers and stalkers. This time last year a 53-year old man was arrested after he was hand-delivering unsettling messages to Rihanna’s Soho apartment.

Have you ever wondered how it is that Kanye is just nailing the style game again and again?

Well, we found the answer, and by answer we mean a pair of brothers from Staten Island that are possibly the coolest siblings we have ever met (sorry Hemsworth brothers).

Twins Dee and Ricky Jackson, grew up in a not so great neighbourhood with their grandmother, who they credit for keeping them out of trouble and getting them into the fashion world.

“Our grandmother, who is a seamstress, is the one who taught us how to sew,” Ricky tells the New York Post in the run up to their designs being featured in an exhibit called “Rise of Sneaker Culture”. Sounds amazing.

At the age of 15 the twins started to make belts and other accessories out of their Xbox controllers. Ricky says this made their designs original and quickly helped them to be recognised in the street style world:

““We had to find a way to distinguish ourselves… So we took our love of all things fun and colorful and incorporated it into our daily looks.”

In 2007, they made their debut on the Marc Jacobs runway and quickly after could count Kanye himself and Rihanna as two of their biggest fans.

Miley Cyrus is also known to sport some of their colourful designs.

The pair’s customised accessories and trainers have been coveted by many celebrities, with Beyoncé being the latest to have requested a unique piece from the boys: a pair of jeans for Blue Ivy.

Dee and Ricky aren’t just content to cater for the celebrity cliques though, when asked who their dream customer would be their answer was only a little surprising.

“I would love to see President Obama in one of our sneakers… Like, ‘Yo, did you see what Obama was wearing while he was walking the family dog?’”

We reckon Boo and Barack would just love to bring some serious style to the lawns of the White House.

 

Boolin and Coolin.

Right now the pair are focused on launching their site deeandricky.com and their Instagram page is an education in fashion.

We feel more stylish after just scrolling through their feed to be perfectly honest.

As the first solo song from her forthcoming eight studio album, the accompany video was always going to demand LOTS of attention.

But was anyone expecting quite so much blood and boobs??

Less than 48hours ago, Rihanna – well-able to cause controversy at the best of times – unveiled the B***h Better Have My Money video… and it's already notched up close-to 10million views.

Ri-Ri, 27, went behind the cameras too for the shoot – directing the action herself.

And apparently (are we surprised?) the songstress also came up with the concept: a bad-ass gang kidnapping a wealthy woman from her apartment, then taking her to a warehouse and motel where they torture and torment her because they want ransom cash. 

The video concludes with a shot of the Grammy Award-winner, naked and covered in blood and lying on a trunk filled with cash.

 

IT'S HERE!!! WATCH #BBHMMvideo NOW on #VEVO !!! —> http://smarturl.it/BBHMMvideo

The song itself, which boasts Kanye West as a producer, has garnered considerable air-time since being released in March, and no doubt the video is about to get a seriously epic amount of attention too. 

Here, we look at the strictly NSFW moments from the video…

 

In the opening scenes, the soon-to-be kidnapped wealthy lady strolls around her apartment in a see-through bra (as you do):

 

But even a see-through bra is too much for Ri-Ri – the kidnapped woman is stripped naked and bungled into a car:

 

The songstress even engages in a spot of torture – with the wealthy woman sporting a metallic grill (no, we don't know either):

 

Rihanna gets really nasty then, sharpening up knives when the kidnapped woman's husband refuses to pay up:

 

Still, there's always time for a bit of pool-party action:

 

And in the end, Ri-Ri ends up in a trunk, naked – and covered with blood and money:

 

Or just watch the whole thing here:

Earlier this morning Rihanna finally dropped the video for her current single B*tch Better Have My Money. Last Sunday the singer treated the audience at the BET Awards to a one-minute preview, but it was nothing compared to the real deal.

If you've listened to the song itself, you'll already have an idea of what the video is like – fierce, empowering and VERY explicit. The short film begins with a beautiful Taylor Swift-esque blonde applying her make-up before leaving her house. Walking into the elevator, she comes face-to-face with Rihanna before the doors close.

When the elevator doors open again, the blonde is gone, and all that remains is RiRi and a mysteriously large trunk… so we can guess what happened there.

What follows is not for the faint-hearted. The moral of the story? B*itch better have my money.

Check out the video below… it's RiRi at her very best.

Chris Brown is no angel but it seems he has been working to turn his life around over the last year.

The singer took to Instagram yesterday to share a small progress update, posting a before-and-after shot showing the weight he has lost over the twelve months. Speaking at the BET Awards earlier this week, Chris said his weight was just one of many parts of his life that he was trying his best to change.

"Last year, I was fat on this stage, dancing, trying to get my stuff together," he told the crowds. "A lot has changed in my life, a lot of mistakes, a lot of lessons learned." Chris' Instagram post (which he deleted shortly after) was captioned simply with a series of laughing emojis. 

The singer was released from jail for the second time last June, having been sentenced to an additional 108 days for violating probation during the Rihanna domestic abuse case.

Six months later, in January of this year, Chris discovered he was father to a toddler daughter named Royalty, following a one-night stand with old friend Nia Guzman. While he still has a long way to go to atone for his past sins, the singer does appear to be making a real effort to focus on positive growth, telling the audience at the BETs that meeting Royalty had changed his life.

"The best thing, I’m most thankful for is my daughter. At the end of the day, love is love. I love everybody," he said during his performance. And given that Rihanna herself stopped by during Chris' rehearsal to watch him perform and give him some words of encouragement, it seems he really has been trying to make amends for his mistakes.

Rihanna definitely caught everyone's attention during her appearance at the Black Entertainment Television Awards (BETs) last night.

The 27-year-old singer stepped out bra-less and in a short gold suit to the awards ceremony where she was debuting a clip from her new video for Bitch Better Have My Money… but her outfit was the last thing on people's minds.

Before taking to the stage, Rihanna seemed to get into an argument with BET’s president of programming, Stephen Hill, and luckily for us the whole thing was caught on camera.

She can be seen talking to Stephen backstage before she says “Why not? This is why I don’t like coming to BET” before throwing a wad of cash in his face and strutting on stage like nothing had happened. It's thought RiRi had wanted to throw the cash into the crowd but was prevented from doing so by Stephen.

But not to worry, she will definitely be allowed back next year after the pair both took to Instagram to show they had kissed and made-up and that they were pals again.

Rihanna was also spotted carrying some duct tape when she turned to Floyd Mayweather and taped his mouth shut and his reaction was priceless!

Rihanna seemed to confuse everyone with this stunt but if it's attention she wanted, she definitely got it.

Rihanna has had some absolutely perfect Snapchat stories. She’s possibly one of our favourite celebrity social media users.

Rihanna does whatever she wants and she really doesn’t care what the haters say. Whether it’s the media attention that surround her love life, or her fashion choices, Riri does Riri and that’s how she likes it.

So you can imagine our delight when we opened her latest Snapchat story and were not only greeted with the Umbrella singer herself, but the latest addition to her family.

We were only mildly disappointed that it wasn’t rumoured beau Karim Benzema. Instead, we got Pepe.

Last night Rihanna hit the club with some of her besties and came home with Pepe. Who looks to be some sort of Pomeranian pup. He’s a tiny ball of fluff.

Where do you even buy a puppy at 5 o’clock in the morning? Only Rihanna has the answer.

We’ve all seen people go out to the club and come home with some random item in our handbag at some point. To be fair it’s generally a surprise lipstick, or napkins.

Rihanna goes out and brings home a dog. That has to be one for the books.

Pepe is absolutely adorable and we hope that Rihanna keeps the little guy around because he’s already the best thing that has happened to her Snap chat since the time she went fishing in Hawaii.

If you’re not following Rihanna already you need to start now.

We thought that we knew Rihanna as an eight-time Grammy winning pop star and social media extraordinaire (check out her Snapchat stories for guaranteed laughs).

Now though, it has finally happened: Riri is set to have her very own fashion line.

Never one to just go with the crowd when it comes to her fashion choices, the one-time creative director for Puma and the River Island collaborator is going to have her very own line of clothing. Yay!

According to reports by Grazia the Umbrella singer has filed an application with the US Patent And Trademarks Office for the name $CHOOL Kills. The patent is filed under “leather products” and “clothing products” categories.

If the rumours are true and the patent filings mean what we all hope they mean, this would be Rihanna’s first ever exclusive clothing line.

Not too surprising considering Rihanna has had previous ventures into the fashion industry.

Her Rihanna For River Island designs were responsible for boosting the retailer's sales in 2014.

But given their chief executive Ben Lewis has previous said there were no further collaborations planned with the singer, we’ve all been hoping her unique style choices would be available to us mere mortals soon.

We're thinking lots of sport luxe bomber jackets and dramatic maxi dresses. Also, plenty of gold accessories and snapbacks. 

While we wait impatiently for further news on Riri’s future fashion adventures, we can always check in with the superstar’s Instagram account for some fashion inspiration.

After all, no one rocks a crop top or over the knee socks quite like this fashion icon.

Is there love in the air? It certainly looks so for Rihanna, 27, and dashing French soccer player, Karim Benzema.

The pair were spotted yesterday in the Griffin nightclub in New York, and the duo afterwards went for a spot of late-night, post-clubbing grub (in Ireland, we call that 'the chipper').

Romance rumours have linked the Grammy Award winner and the 27-year-old Real Madrid player before.

Indeed, a year ago Rihanna tweeted at Karim saying, “I feel your pain right now,” when his national team drew with Ecuador in the World Cup. The soccer star promptly responded saying: “No pain no gain, thanks for the support.”

A source told E! News: “Rihanna and Karim were sitting across from each other,” adding that “they came separately and they were speaking French at some point”.

Wait, now she speaks French too? Yup, her talents are pretty much boundless at this stage. And while any romance has yet to be confirmed, with Ri-Ri’s busy schedule the union may not have the brightest future.

In a recent interview with V Magazine, the Diamonds singer explained just how hectic she really is: “The past two years are the hardest I’ve ever worked,” she said.

“I’ve been working on two albums, an animated film, shooting for multiple magazines, designing for Puma and Stance, a new line of fragrances, a summer tour, I launched my first annual Diamond Ball at the end of last year, and I’ve also been developing several projects to be revealed in the near future.”

Wow! If she has time for a summer romance on top of all that we will be seriously impressed.

She announced her pregnancy on Sunday – but clearly Kim Kardashian has no intentions of covering up just because she’s expecting her second child.

The 33-year-old appeared on the red carpet last night alongside her husband of a year, Kanye West, at the CFDA Fashion Awards in Manhattan. For the occasion she wore a custom-made see-through creation by New York-based label, Proenza Schouler.

And while it is thought that the reality TV star is due on a date in December, she certainly wasn’t showing any hint of a baby bump just yet.

Styled by Jenke Ahmed Tailly, who is well-known for also styling Beyonce, Ms Kardashian evidently was delighted with the look too.

“I seriously can't thank you enough for this amazing dress!” she said on Instagram, directing her appreciation towards the designers.

However, the reaction from her fans was less enthusiastic.

“Sorry but this is awful,” one commented. “Don't like it,” another said bluntly. “Sorry. This dress is NOT amazing. Very ugly,” said a third individual. Someone else simply declared: “Normally like your style… But this is not a good look.”

Still, the CFDA Fashion Awards – which aims to honour the best and the brightest in American fashion – certainly encourages a more daring look: last year Rihanna turned up in a figure-hugging dress that exposed her breasts.

Vogue US has just released the front cover for its special edition Met Gala issue, and there's one glaring absence from the list of celebrities who made the cut.

Singer Rihanna was crowned Anna Wintour's style winner on the night, and graces the cover in her stunning canary yellow floor-sweeping gown, a creation by Chinese designer Guo Pei.

Riri shared the exciting news with her 18.6m Instagram followers today, posting an image of the vibrant cover and writing, "WOW!!! I am very honored to have this image selected for the new cover of @voguemagazine !! #metgala2015 #art #fashion #Vogue"

The competition was stiff at this year's Gala, with Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Kendall Jenner and more all looking downright fabulous, and receiving their rightful recognition in the list of celebrity names featured on the special Vogue cover. 

However despite Kim Kardashian's stunning Roberto Cavalli ensemble, her name didn't make the cover – something which many are taking as a direct snub from Anna Wintour to Kim and Kanye.

The star couple's names were featured on last year's Met Gala cover, and they even graced the front of Vogue themselves back in April 2014.

Since then though, Kim and Kanye's appeal seems to have worn off for Anna, and it seems once you're out of the editor's good books you won't get back in.

After all, who can forget her face earlier this year when little North West had a temper tantrum in the middle of Kanye's Adidas show at New York Fashion Week?

We can't decide who looks more upset, Anna or North…

Kim didn't exactly make things easy for herself on the night of the Met Gala by outright ignoring Anna's "selfie ban" and posting a number of pictures from inside the event, which many say may have led to the decision to cut her name from the cover.

 

I just love this girl @ladygaga

As for Rihanna, she definitely seems to be the star of the moment at Condé Nast, as this is her second year running as cover star for the Vogue Met Gala issue:

It's definitely well deserved for RiRi, but we doubt Kim's too happy all the same.
