UK Navy! Jonathan Ross has said that Rihanna will be on his show, The Jonathan Ross Show, in about 4 or 5 weeks. RiRi will be performing at this year’s Brit Awards and celebrating her 24th birthday in London next month.
Watch Rihanna performing “Russian Roulette” at the show back in 2009.
UK Navy! Rihanna is set to join the Sky Living family. In her first ever television project, she’ll be executive-producing and appearing in an original and hugely ambitious new fashion series exclusively for Sky Living HD.
Synonymous with cutting-edge style, Rihanna is searching Britain for the next generation of raw, undiscovered designer talent and has hand-picked Girls Aloud star Nicola Roberts to head up the challenge for her.
The show will celebrate the extraordinary talent and creativity in the British fashion scene. With Rihanna, a fashion icon herself, and Nicola, who created her own Dainty Doll make-up range, at the helm, the show will recognise the increasing influence popstars have on mainstream trends.
With her world-class reputation and passion for style, Rihanna is perfectly placed to find an aspiring designer worthy of the chance to break into the hugely competitive world of fashion. Tasking Nicola with fronting the search, Rihanna will be heavily responsible for casting and will be involved in editing post-production.

Rihanna has become the first female artist to simultaneously top the UK singles and albums charts twice in a year.
The Bajan popstar achieved the feat after “We Found Love”, featuring Calvin Harris, won its sixth week at the head of the singles chart, while new album “Talk That Talk” has also gone straight to number one, selling over 160,000 copies in its first week of release.
Rihanna previously did the same in January, when “What’s My Name”, featuring Drake, and “Loud” topped the singles and albums chart respectively.
Rihanna also becomes the first solo female artist to rack up two UK number one albums in the same year, equalling the record of Michael Jackson, REM, Elton John, Blondie and Robbie Williams, and to have six number one singles in five consecutive years.
She also still currently holds the record for most weeks at number one in the UK singles chart in 2011 with seven, which is one week away from equalling the Spice Girls’ career total.
