Capturing the chemistry between Drake and Rihanna on the set of their new video wasn’t very hard, the director of the clip, Yoann Lemoine, told MTV News. The video for “Take Care” was shot during the Super Bowl.
“They seemed to be super close and that’s what I wanted for the video,” Lemoine, best known for directing Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream,” Taylor Swift’s “Back to December” and Mystery Jet’s “Dreaming of Another World,” told us. “They fit together pretty well so it was just easy.”
Lemoine said the three-day shoot — which took place in a studio as well as a park — had a “very minimal” and “mellow” vibe, even though the track itself is decidedly more upbeat.
“Visually, it’s a very humble video … it’s not crazy,” the alternative indie musician who also goes by the stage name Woodkid said. “It’s actually the most indie video I’ve done my whole life. It’s probably the most famous artists, and they were so open to a project that was so minimal. There’s a lot of space in the video and I wanted the visuals to pay tribute to that,” he continued. “It pays tribute to nature. When I listened to the track, I was seeing a landscape … involving animals and massive landscapes. I won’t say too much, but it’s very surprising that there are very few elements in it. It’s very simple but there’s this big sense of emptiness in it. It’s not narrative at all, and it involves animals.”

Henry Holland has talked about Rihanna and the Britsh TV show they’re working together:
‘She’s the coolest woman in the world. She looked so f***ing amazing at the Grammy’s!’ he says. ‘She knows what works on her; she never looks like she’s been dressed; [by a stylist] you can tell she loves fashion’.
So Henry’s about to start filming a new TV show for Sky Living with the body-baring one herself in her debut role as a TV exec. The show will feature ‘young aspiring fashion designers and stylists, who each week will be given assignments to design and style for a string of celebrities and musicians.’
Heading up the project alongside Mr Holland will be Nicola Roberts, singer, make-up entrepreneur, and regular “face” on Henner’s front row; ‘from my very first collection’. He explains that when Roberts wore a crochet maxi dress of his recently, it ‘instantly’ sold out ‘she sells clothes’ says Henry, with heavy emphasis.
The show, which starts on Sky Living this Autumn will give an insight into ‘how the stylist-designer-musician collaboration works; for cover shoots, for tour wardrobes, within an musician’s specific image.’ Henry, in case you forgot, left his career (all of 7 years ago) at teen magazine Bliss where he was Fashion Editor, to become a designer, so he understands both the styling and designing ends of showbiz. Of course, Henry’s client list is full of big name celebrities, and Rihanna has previously worn House of Holland; on her album sleeve and also on stage at the Capital Radio Summer Ball last year – but both those looks were ready to wear pieces that the star fell for and snatched straight from the catwalk. But Henry has also created custom looks for Kelis’ tour wardrobe – all hosiery body suits and metallic leather – and offers this advice to the show’s contestants; ‘it’s about creating something that fits within the musician’s brief and image, but it also has to stay true to your own aesthetic as a designer.’
And for the lucky unknown who can crack that, the prize will be to design Rihanna’s on-stage outfit for this year’s Wireless festival. Wow.
‘It was all Rihanna’s idea’ says Henry, explaining that Rihanna is the show’s Executive Producer, ‘so she really is my boss’.

Whitney Houston, one of Rihanna’s idols, has passed away this Saturday (February 11). Rihanna tweeted:
No words! Just tears #DearWhitney
I honestly can’t think of anything else!!!
Feels so strange being at the Grammy rehearsal right now!!
Rest in Peace, Whitney. We will always love you!
If I should die this very day
Don’t cry, ’cause on Earth we weren’t meant to stay
And no matter what the people say
I’ll be waiting for you after the judgment day
— Whitney Houston “My Love Is Your Love”

It has only been announced that Rihanna will perform “Princess Of China” with Coldplay at the Grammys this weekend. However, Rihanna’s dancers are rehearsing as well. Maybe we should expect a few surprises… The 54th Annual Grammy Awards will be held on February 12, 2012, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles being broadcast on CBS 8:00 p.m. ET.
Would you like “Birthday Cake” to be a single? That’s what Rihanna asked her 13 million Twitter followers yesterday. She also tweeted: “Now here’s the trick question! #IF I put collaborator on it, who would u wanna see lick the icing off????? #CAKE I need somebody #DIRRRTY on my Birthday #CAKE ;) lol And please!!!! No girls allowed on #CAKE” Thoughts??
Rihanna is this year’s 9th most desirable woman according to AskMen.com. “In her memoir Bossypants, Tina Fey cheered Beyonce for “bringing back the leg meat.” Well, Rihanna has taken that “leg meat” torch and run with it. Watching her dance makes us forget that we ever desired supermodels with sticks for legs. Even the snooty Brits can’t get enough of her. When Coldplay’s Chris Martin needed a female vocalist for his recent “Princess of China,” he got Rihanna — even though his wife Gwyneth Paltrow is trying to jumpstart her singing career. Sorry, Gwyneth, you’ve got no “leg meat.”"
Rihanna’s 24th birthday is just 2 weeks away! If you wish to be a part of our Birthday Project, make sure to click here.
