Photos: Rihanna stuns for Elle magazine


Rihanna is the cover girl for the the November/December issue of Elle magazine and some pics taken for the mag were released today on Elle's blog. Rihanna was surprisingly demure and wore minimal make-up for the issue, where she revealed a lot of things about herself that we probably didn't know. See more photos and some of the stuff she said after the cut...












ELLE: What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?

RIHANNA: That’s still a secret.



What do people misunderstand about you?

I’m shy.



What’s the sexiest thing a man has ever said to you?

Any man that tells me what to do is sexy!



What’s your mantra?

“Fuck bitches, get money!



Your worst fear?
Childbirth!



Do you ever sound like your mother?

My mother doesn’t say much, but that one “ummmm” is a full paragraph of things I was grateful she didn’t say. I catch myself doing that a lot recently.



If you weren’t a singer, what would you be?
A wife.



The last time you were starstruck?

When I met Aaron Paul at the Spike awards.



The best hangover cure?
Ice, Chinese food! And an upside-down trash can and towels, preferably next to the toilet.



If you had to listen to three albums on repeat, what would they be?

KoL’s Only By the Night, Buju Banton’s ’Til Shiloh, and Michael Bolton’s Greatest Hits (1985–1995). And the Waiting to Exhale soundtrack.

Russia dismantles Apple statue after CEO comes out as gay


I said it when Apple CEO Tim Cook came out as gay that there might be consequences, unfortunately it has started. A human-sized iPhone statue featuring a screen that displays a photo and video tribute to Apple Inc founder, Steve Jobs, which was erected in St Petersburg, Russia in 2013, was dismantled by the people who put it up, a day after Apple CEO, Tim Cook, came out as gay.



The Russian group of companies that erected the monument released a statement today saying it was taken down on Friday Oct. 31st, because they needed to abide by 'a law combating gay propaganda". Whatever that means. I guess more to come...
