Rihanna Celebrates Cinco De Mayo, Estelle Is A Style Muse and Keyshia Cole's "Trust" Video Ft. Monica
Posted on May 6, 2009 3:20 PM
I got to see Rihanna party it up first hand last night, when she showed up at NYC's Tillman's Bar and Lounge to celebrate Cinco De Mayo, which just so happened to be where I was having my birthday party.
I wasn't going to make a big deal out of it, but MTV News did ...
The "Umbrella" singer was spotted partying at Tillman's Bar and Lounge with (Katy)Perry and a circle of friends. Sporting a bright yellow leather blazer adorned in rhinestones on the lapels, Rihanna appeared upbeat and in good spirits throughout the night. She even told one patron born on the same day as Brown, "Happy Birthday, bi---!"
That birthday bi--- would be me. So I figured I'd share this candid of us. It was taken with my Blackberry and it's not the most flattering but oh welps!
BTW, she's holding up a 5 in honor of Cinco De Mayo 5/5. In addition to Perry, members of Gym Class Heroes were also with Rihanna.
Yesterday was also Chris Brown's birthday. Enough of that though -- moving on.
Rihanna gets tons of style accolades but Estelle is definitely making some fashionable strides of her own. The singer was featured in Papermag.com for her role as style muse and spokesmodel for accessories designer Jonathan Kelsey.
Yes, I've loved his shoes for awhile! They are actually really comfortable; his footwear is workable, and that's rare. So, when he approached me to represent the Belvie bag, I was like "hell yeah!" I love his designs, so I had a bit of a girly moment. And I have to say the design of the bag was pretty dope. I think it reflects the way I like to dress.
Apparently Estelle is a girl after my own heart, with a major shoe fetish. She says her personal style is a reflection of "Grace Jones crossed with Audrey Hepburn and Edie Sedgwick." Congrats on the new gig Stelly!
Before I forget, Keyshia Cole just released her video with Monica for their new single "Trust". Check it out below:
Love it... I'm dying for Monica to make a comeback. I'm glad Keyshia called on her for the song.
Oh and for all y'all in the know about Colin Munroe -- I'm super excited to see him perform tomorrow in NYC along with Wale and Tanya Morgan. I'm gonna try to get some Live footage for Soulful. If you're in the city come check them out!

On "Trust"... I just wasn't understanding the concept of blacks in "Tuscany, Italy". lol.. But I guess that's just me. Imagination runs wild in these videos sometimes. But Keyshia still my girl.

We got to see our cute blogger again. This is good. It makes up for having to deal with Ms. No Talent Rhianna.
So what's up, when is SOHH going to let you move to podcasts and video blogs? Cause text-only blogs at this stage of the game is backwards.

Please don't start that "putting yourself in every picture you take, like Gyant use to do" thing. Anyway I'm not feeling that Keyshia Cole song, everytime I heard it I can't wait for it to end. So I 'm not really in the mood to watch the video.
Happy Belated B-Day Rebel..Never thought that you would of posted a pic of yourself..Always thought that you really wanted to remain anonymous...But then again, your a woman..All women wanna be seen..I was trying to figure out what the hell is that on your nose but at least your pretty...Lol...
Does anybody know what Tasha from theybf.com looks like??? I need to know, cause she be talkin like she's the absolute shit & that she is classy and that all of her female friends is classy...Lmao,
because everytime I hear her speak, she tries to hard to sound like she' keeping it ghetto fab w/class and the majority of the time is does not come across as well as she thinks..
Then she bragging about being engaged to CNN's TJ Holmes, when dude was just engaged to Chil from TLC just last year...LMAO!!!!
She stay clowning women that she talks about, so I really want to know how this chick looks...The way she talks and acts, she better be a certified dizzy!!! Real Talk!
