The musical superstar from Barbados will be hunting for undiscovered design talent in Britain on a new TV show, currently unnamed, in which she will star and executive produce.
Sky Living HD announced Thursday it has commissioned media company Twenty Twenty to make the series and say Rihanna will be working mainly behind the scenes.

Together they will challenge fashion newcomers to create stage gear for musicians and celebrities -- with the final task to dress Rihanna for her July 8th performance at the Wireless music festival in London's Hyde Park.

LMFAO To Join Madonna At Super Bowl
One year later, Will.i.am has taken it upon himself to reveal one of the performers expected to spice up Madonna's upcoming halftime extravaganza: those lovable party rockers, LMFAO.
Will.i.am says, "I'm going to the Super Bowl this year to see my group LMFAO perform with Madonna." LMFAO, who scored a pair of Hot 100 chart-toppers last year with "Party Rock Anthem" and "Sexy and I Know It," are signed to Will.i.am Music Group.
Madonna, a recent Golden Globe winner whose 12th studio album "M.D.N.A." is expected for a March release, was announced as the Super Bowl halftime show performer in December after months of speculation.
Nicki Minaj and M.I.A are also rumored to show up at the Super Bowl performance, after the hip-hop stars and pop legend collaborated on Madonna's forthcoming single, "Give Me All Your Love."

Mary J. Blige On Oscar Snub: "It Saddens Me"
Although the category normally sees four to five nominations, the 84th Annual Academy Awards has only two songs in the running for Best Original Song: "Real in Rio" from "Rio" and "Man or Muppet" from "The Muppets."
Blige's theme song "The Living Proof," for the film "The Help," appeared to be a frontrunner in the race, however the singer along with other speculated contenders such as Madonna and Elton John were astonishingly not nominated.
Shortly after the nominations were announced, MJB took to Twitter to express her grief over the snub. "I'm so thankful for true fans like you all. It saddens me & feels like the Academy is being mean. 2 only nominate 2 of the 5 slots is……." She continued to re-tweet reactions from her fans who shared her sadness.

Madonna Gets Denied Five Star Hotel In Indianapolis For The Super Bowl
Don't worry, she's still performing at the Super Bowl, but the Pop DIVA won't be in the same city for very long.
A source tells us that Madonna wanted the penthouse at the Conrad, but they told her it had been reserved a year in advance. Instead of settling for another room either at the Conrad or another 5-star hotel, she's staying in Chicago and flying into Indianapolis the day of the big event!
She must not have liked ANY of the other accommodations the Indiana city had to offer. Or she wanted to prove a point — don't say NO to Madonna!

Rihanna Gets A 'Thug Life' Tattoo
Newly emblazoned across her knuckles is the phrase "Thug Life," as seen in a photo the singer, 23, posted to Twitter. It's apparently an homage to Tupac Shakur, who had the same phrase tattooed across his stomach.
And indeed, Rihanna has mentioned Tupac in a series of occasionally obscene Twitter posts over the past day, many of them in response to fans' outrage that she would identify with thug culture.
In fact, Rihanna has been fond of the "Thug Life" phrase for some time. She wrote the words on her knuckles with a pink Sharpie last September, the Daily Mail reports.
