So she CAN do classy!

She is becoming well known for her love of barely-there outfits, raunchy dance moves and risqué music videos. But Rihanna proves she can rock a much classier look in next month’s Glamour magazine, where she poses in a series of striking vintage-inspired dresses. The 23-year-old singer manages to look chic and sophisticated in the evening-style wear, all of which provide more coverage of her assets than usual. In an accompanying interview, the singer admits that she likes to shock with her outrageous choice of outfits. “Getting dressed, I want to pick the most bizarre pair of shorts so I can figure out how to make it look right, or work an outfit that will make people go, ‘What the hell is she wearing?'” she says. “I hate drama,” she added. “But at the same time, nothing bothers me more than when life’s perfect. And that’s the sick part. I just love a challenge, whether it’s a relationship, my career, clothing…” And she certainly seems to relish her current freedom, in stark contrast to the more clean-cut image she had to cultivate at the start of her career. “In the beginning of my career, it was really strict for me,” she recalled to Glamour. “I couldn’t wear pink or red lipstick; it was just bizarre. We had a young fan base, and they were trying to keep me fresh. But I just really wanted to be myself. I wanted to be sassy, the attitude, all these things that I am.”

‘I’ve got separation anxiety!’

With her baby daughter a mere 10 days old, it’s no surprise that Ivanka Trump missed little Arabella when she ventured into work yesterday. The Apprentice star revealed she went to her office, but missed the tiny tot so much, she ended up racing back home to see her. She wrote on Twitter: “Ventured into the office for a few hours today but raced home to see Arabella this evening. I’m already experiencing separation anxiety!” The 29-year-old businesswoman and TV star certainly loves being a mother — Arabella is her and husband Jared Kushner’s first baby. “Jared and I are having so much fun playing with our daughter!” she wrote on Twitter. “Arabella Rose is beyond adorable. She’s truly a blessing.” And a few days ago she added: “Best day ever. I love hanging out with my little girl!” Ivanka announced the birth of Arabella on July 17, writing on Twitter: “This morning Jared and I welcomed a beautiful and healthy little baby girl into the world.” She also appears to have recovered from the labour she had previously admitted she was ‘terrified’ about. “I have enough anxiety about the type of mother I’m going to be and the nuances of being a parent,” she told People before the birth. “I haven’t focused too much on the actual delivery part, which is seriously terrifying,” she said.

Like father, like son

Justin Bieber and his father posed topless, showing off their matching tattoos. A newly released photo shows the father and son in Israel earlier this year where they had the etching done together. The pair had the word ‘Yeshua,’ — which many believe to be Jesus’ Hebrew or Aramaic name — etched onto the left side of their torsos. Bieber first showed off the etching when he went on a Hawaii break with girlfriend Selena Gomez in May. It came as Justin’s second tat, with the teen seemingly sharing his father’s love of the ink. The Baby singer also has an etching of seagull on his left hip, which he had done to celebrate turning 16. Justin’s Christian faith is important to him, with the star saying prayers in English and Hebrew before going on stage to perform. The singer was raised primarily by his mother Pattie Mallette, but he has remained close to his father over the years. “I have a great relationship with my dad,” he told Seventeen last year. “When I was younger, he taught me how to play some songs on the guitar, like Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door by Bob Dylan. He taught me how to drive, too,” Justin added. “He’s cool.”
