Rihanna, Lady GaGa, and Kanye West are all intertwined in the news this week – and since they’re 3 of my very favorites, I’m all over it!
Rihanna made her live comeback this week, at a fashion event in New York.
She performed two impromptu songs with her friend Kanye West at the Costume Institute Gala.
An eyewitness tells E! Online: “Kanye asked her to do it. It was his idea, but (Vogue editor / event organizer) Anna Wintour obviously had to approve it.”
Lady GaGa has said that Kanye West’s remix of ‘Poker Face’ is “exactly what the song is about“.
She dismissed fans’ claims that West, Kid Cudi and Common’s version gives the song a different meaning than she intended it to have.
In fact, in an interview with MTV News, Lady GaGa said: “It’s funny, because a lot of my fans were like, ‘GaGa, Kanye wrote a song…and it’s not about what your record’s about. Your record is about gambling. And this song is about dirty things’,” she said.
“I said to them, ‘You’re wrong. Kanye was right’.”
“It was really exciting that he had so much insight into what the song was about,” GaGa added.
Lady GaGa also spoke about how excited she was about Madonna attending one of her shows in New York. Yeah, I guess!
The gorgeous pictures of Rihanna in the post are from May 4, 2009: “The Model as Muse: Embodying Fashion” Costume Institute Gala at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. I LOVE the strong “I’m back” statement she’s making with the clothes, the stance, and the direct eye contact with the camera. She looks amazing and it’s great to see her back.

Well, it doesn’t get much better than this. Arguably American Idol’s most talented winner, David Cook, and arguably the hottest female artist of the moment, Lady GaGa will both make live appearances at the result show of “American Idol” on Wednesday, April 1.
