• 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.”"

Thoughts??

Rihanna has overthrown Lady Gaga for the title of “Queen of YouTube“. She has obtained a total of 2,033,848,822 video views, which is over 2 million more than the former leader’s total and growing exponentially. This comes on the heels of Rihanna’s recent crowning of “Queen of Facebook” late last year, where coincidentally she also replaced Gaga. Rihanna is also the “Queen of Digital Downloads“.

We want that CAKE! And it looks we’re getting one soon! RihannaNavy surely thought the released snippet (cupcake) of “Birthday Cake” wasn’t long enough and asked Rihanna to extend it. She even promised it to us it’s the “first on her 2012 agenda”. Now The-Dream, who wrote and produced the song, tells Boombox that the interlude will be turned into a full song. Rihanna always listen to her fans requests!

I was just talking to Rihanna about that, because she [originally] made an [just an] interlude. I was like, “Your fans are going to be so mad at you.” As soon as I said that, I got back, and I guess she released a piece of it, and they saw how long it is. Man, they tore me up on Twitter! So I hit her on the phone. I was like, “Yo, your fans, they’re going crazy on me right now, like I could make you do something.” So ‘Birthday Cake’ is on there. It’s going to turn into a whole song because the fans are ganging up on me, and I don’t want to be murdered by the Rihanna Navy!
