RD: How did you start working with Rihanna?
JB: I was introduced to Rihanna by Ursula Stephens, whom I work with together with on another celeb client. She told me I just had to meet Rihanna and do her lashes, cause she would love them. So I went to a photoshoot with Ursula and did Rihanna’s lashes and she loved them and the rest is history!

RD: How do choose a lash for her and why?
JB: I always tell people to pick a lash that goes with your lifestyle. With Rihanna she is a rock star so her look changes day to day, but I alway pick a lash that is not to over powering that it takes away from her natural beauty, but complements it.

RD: Are you planning to work with her durning her 2010 Tour?
JB: Yes, im designing a special lash for her tour. But that is Top Lash Secret so I can’t tell you anymore. Sorry you will just have to wait until the tour.

JB: My website www.JaMaalBuster.com , The Lash Placement Tool is designed to make applying false eyelashes fast and simple.

Tone did an interview with Kerin Rose. We already mentioned she’s responsible for creating all the fierce eyeglasses Rihanna was sporting recently (I already found 4 types from a-morir she had on – 5 including the latest Glamour photoshoot). Watch it!

ImNotObsessed.com did an interview with Mariel Haenn recently. If you don’t know this already, Mariel is responsible for Rihanna’s fierce look – she’s her stylist! Read below the interview:

“As is probably already obvious, I’m (not) obsessed with Rihanna’s style. I met up with the stylist behind her many looks, Mariel Haenn, and got to know what she’s doing with MasterCard and Saks Fifth Avenue to bring you that celeb-worthy style without the celeb price tags.

Mariel looked casually cute in a Nanette Lepore jacket, Christian Louboutin sky-high stilettos, Seven jeans and a crazy, in a good way, four-finger ring by Jessica Robinson. When she’s not styling Rihanna for red carpets and music videos (she recently did the “Run This Town” video shoot), she’s styling Ciara, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, Kerry Washington, Rachel McAdams, Jeremy Piven and QTip. Mariel seems to have her finger on the hottest items this season, because she’s partnered with MasterCard and Saks Fifth Avenue Fall 2009 Want It! Collection comprised of statement pieces that you gotta have, to help everyone update their wardrobes.

With items like the Rocker Boot, the Cozy Knit and the Strong Shoulder, Mariel shows ways to make these trendy pieces your own. For instance, if you’d like to bring out your inner rockstar but aren’t quite ready to debut thigh-high leather boots, try the bootie with some studs. Here’s what Mariel had to say:

What was it like working on the “Run This Town” video shoot?

It was really great because everyone had creative input. We wanted to go for a kind of rebel, militia feel and Rihanna wanted to keep it sexy, at the same time, with the garter belt and hooded sweatshirt. It’s all about being edgy and pushing the envelope.
