Flame-haired Rihanna sets the stage alight at ACMA
Rihanna dispensed with her R & B roots last Sunday night as she took to the stage for a stunning duet at the Academy of Country Music Awards. The 22-year-old singer joined forces with Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles and the pair brought the house down with their rendition of California King Bed. It came on a night of big performances, as Taylor Swift took to the stage and former American Idol winner Carrie Underwood shared the microphone with one of the show’s current judges, Steven Tyler. Speaking ahead of her performance with Rihanna, Nettles said she was excited. “It’s the first time that Lady Ri and I have ever sung together, and the first time that this song will be performed live, so we are thrilled,” she said.

Tori Spelling and estranged mom seen out shopping, holding hands
There was a time when the mere mention of her mother’s name would send Tori Spelling into a meltdown. But after years of bickering and estrangement, the duo finally kissed and made up last year, and now it seems their relationship is better than ever. And to show, the three generations are now enjoying a loving relationship, the ladies all held hands as they walked in the Upper East Side of New York last Sunday while on a shopping trip. Tori’s two children Liam, four, and two-year-old Stella put on their cutest outfits to impress their grandmother Candy and looked adorable. Tori’s family outing comes amidst rumours that Candy is shopping around a new tell-all book that will dish the dirt about her often rocky relationship with her 37-year-old daughter. But Candy, 65, has dispelled these reports saying her book Golden Girl, Silver Lining will be about her journey from an ultra-pampered, wealthy housewife to finding herself and her own path when she was widowed nearly five years ago. Her husband, TV mogul Aaron Spelling, passed away in June 2006, leaving her an estimated $500 million.

Sarah Jessica Parker heads out in public looking like she’s just rolled out of bed
Fashion forward Sarah Jessica Parker made a bold sartorial statement as she stepped out in what looked like a dressing gown. The 46-year-old actress was pictured last Monday leaving her New York apartment in the white ‘robe’, which she teamed with jeans and wedge heels. While to most it may look like a bath gown, the Sex And The City star was wearing a very trendy hooded coat. It was exhibited on the runway at the Halston Heritage Fall 2011 runway show during New York Fashion Week recently. Later on in the day the actress changed into something more normal-looking — Converse trainers and a cardigan-style jacket.
