Hip hop diva extraordinaire Rihanna was rushed to an NYC hospital after a hard night of partying at the Met Ball Monday night.

After being admitted, the 24-year-old singer Tweeted the above picture of herself, but offered no explanation as to why she was down for the count, although a source tells Entertainment Tonight that the oft-controversial star,

…had a fever and flu since last week and needed an IV but is fine now.

Apparently, RiRi’s been battling a bug for some time now and even had to skip out on last Friday’s dress rehearsal for her Saturday Night Live appearance.

Wait, is a “bug” the same thing as partying way too hard for your own good?  We’re confused….

Hopefully, this trip to the ER will get the “You Da One” singer back on the straight and narrow.

We know she’s a style chameleon, but Rihanna’s latest transformation even threw us for a loop!

The hip-hop diva took to her Twitter (via Instagram, obvi) to showcase her new, darker and sort-of-chopped-off locks.  And what we mean by that is that the 24-year-od totally dyed her hair black and then shaved one side of her head.

Yeah, you read that right.

According to the “We Found Love” singer, she opted for the half-shaved looked because she “was missin” her short hair, but “ain’t ready to chop.”

Right, because cutting your hair short is a much bigger commitment than SHAVING YOUR HEAD!?

What do you think of RiRi’s new look?  Sound off below!

Me-OW!

Pop star Katy Perry pulled out her razor-sharp claws during a recent interview with BBC Radio 1, and took a swipe at fellow diva Beyonce and her 2007 hit “Beautiful Liar”.

According to the interview, Perry and her bestie Rihanna, are currently working together on a duet to be released later this year and they are absolutely not using Beyonce as their muse.

We’ve collaborated on a lot of things, but just not songs yet… It’s one of those things that’s got so much build up that we have to deliver… I want it to be like that Eurythmics and Aretha Franklin song ‘Sisters Are Doin’ It for Themselves… Not ‘Beautiful Liar.’

Katy are you sure you really want to go on the offensive with Ms. Beyonce Knowles?  Not only could she probably beat you to a pulp, but she’s got a new baby and those mama bear hormones are not something you want to mess with.

Just a little friendly advice.

Hip hop superstar Rihanna went under the needle again this week, this time to get a tiny cross tattooed on her collarbone.  This ink marks the sixteenth tat for the 24-year-old artist.

Yes, that’s right – this is her sixteenth tattoo.  That’s waaaay too much time around sharp objects for our taste!

According favorite her tattoo artist, BangBang, the “Talk that Talk” songstress went in for the ink on Thursday night and was extremely pleased with the results.

She said her cross meant a lot to her and she totally loved it…

We aren’t surprised.  Rihanna could get a picture of a Tasmanian Devil tattooed on her forehead and still look fierce, so of course it rocked.

Although Grammy-nominated singer Rihanna has been linked to ex-boyfriend (and confirmed King-of-Douchery) Chris Brown of late, the  24-year-old swears she’s still as single as they come – and is hating every minute of it.

Single life is so overrated… It sucks. I have such incredible experiences in my life. You don’t want to live your life and then meet someone. You want to share your life with someone. That’s what I’m missing right now.

Now, we don’t want to come off sounding like a bunch of old fogies here, but maybe, just maybe, those spiked denim shorts of yours aren’t quite sending that “come hither” message you’re looking for.

At any rate, no matter how much you may hate flying solo – anything’s better than spending the rest of your life with a guy who treats you like garbage.

Can I get an “Amen”!?

Rihanna stepped out at an exclusive Stella McCartney’s Evening Wear Presentation during London Fashion Week yesterday, dripping in glamour and wearing a floor-length, emerald green dress with a super high slit and plunging neckline.

The dress was daring to say the least, but can we really expect anything less from the “We Found Love” songstress?

According to sources, the 23-year-old chatted the night away with pals Kate Moss and the lady of the hour herself, Stella McCartney.

Check out more pics of Rihanna’s sultry gown below…

The 2012 Grammy Awards are upon us and it’s time for GossipTeen fans to weigh in on who will be taking home the coveted “Album of the Year” gramophone.  The five nominees run the gambit from rock to hip hop to pop to well… whatever it is that Lady Gaga does, and we think this year’s vote is going to be closer than ever!

So what say you oh fans of GossipTeen?  Will it be Adele and 21?  The Foo Fighters and Wasting Light?  Rihanna and Loud?  Bruno Mars and Doo-Wops & Hooligans?  Or Lady Gaga and Born this Way?

Let us know who YOU would give the Grammy to below!

Ummmmm okay.  I guess this is cool?  No no, I’m sorry.   I just cannot get down with knuckle tattoos – I don’t care who you are.

Hip hop diva Rihanna flashed her latest ink via Twitter earlier today, tweeting,

All these b*tches screaming that 2pac back #THUGLIFE

Yeah, I have absolutely no idea what that means.  I guess it’s somehow a reference to the fact that she now has the same tattoo on her hands, that Tupac had on his stomach?  Why she chose to use that collection of words to express that message – I’m not sure…

The 23-year-old singer, who’s recently been rumored to be sneaking around with ex-BF (and notorious scumbag) Chris Brown, is no stranger to the needle – the knuckle tats bring Riahnna’s tattoo tally to a whopping 15!

Do you like Rihanna’s new ink?  Let us know below!

If this is true – I quit life.

Sources have revealed that former hiphop lovebirds Rihanna and Chris Brown have rekindled their romance and have been sneaking around together for the last year.

Rihanna loves to live dangerously… [H]ooking up with Chris is all part of that.

Living dangerously – you have to be alive to live dangerously girl.  Do you not remember what that boy did to your face three years ago???

Apparently, these two have been meeting up casually and taking time out to see each other whenever they are both in L.A.  According to another insider,

They can’t get enough of each other. I don’t see it ending well.

Not to be crass, but – DUH!  Someone needs to talk some sense into this chick and quick!
