Rihanna and Robin Thicke grace the pages of the latest RollingStone magazine. The photoshoot is simple, sexy and if we wanted to assume so, we could say they were dating. BUT, we all know that is far from correct. Rihanna and Robin both toured with Beyonce this year. Speaking of Beyonce, be sure to enter our LUXE LADIES LIVE DVD giveaway contest. It’s free! Back to R-Squared. The photos were taken by the rather comically dark, Terry Richardson. He also did the album photos for Justin Timberlake’s latest album, FutureSex/LoveSounds. Check out the photos below. View more of Terry Richardson’s work here.

The soulful, talented, sexy Alicia Keys is on top of the world right now. Her new album As I Am is critically acclaimed and one of the highest debuting albums this year. Our dear Alicia has the #1 album in the country selling over 740,000 copies in her first week! Alicia is supreme. Her album surpassed the certified gold selling quota of 500,000 in 7 days. Alicia is a little over 200,000 albums away from her third consecutive platinum selling album. With her heart felt songs like No One and Like You’ll Never See Me Again (a personal favorite) she will surely meet that in no time. Support Miss Keys! It really is an amazing album. A little boring, but amazing.

Whoa! So am I the only one who was tricked?! After watching the previews of this episode I just knew Heidi and Spencer where finished! I mean she totally threw her engagement ring on the table, and Spencer took his bags and hit it. I’ve realized that Spencer is a spoiled, controlling little man. What kills me is I really used to like him at first. Ugh, what was I thinking? So he basically gets mad at Heidi because she wants her family and friends there for her wedding and doesn’t want to elope in Vegas? What a prick. I know I was reaching for the stars, but the perfect ending would be for Heidi and Spence to have broken up and Heidi running back to Lauren’s door. Man that would have been perfect!

Now on to the others. Whitney has to be my favorite. She is beautiful, talented, intelligent and for the most part stays out of all that drama the rest of them can’t seem to live without. (but I love the drama). However, I think Whitney’s a lesbo. I mean seriously think about it, why is she NEVER with any hot guys? So yea on last nights episode she went on a date with the trainer dude, but there was really no sparks there. She seemed really uncomfortable. Maybe its Lauren she really wants.
