Rihanna’s New Guns! … Tattoos that is

Rihanna's new gun tattoos.

No, Rihanna hasn’t gone and got herself a pair of “real” guns. If she did, we’re pretty sure a certain someone would be somewhere peeing his pants right about now. In the midst of all of the drama, confusion and just outright chaos, Rihanna went and got some new ink. She reportedly flew in tattoo artist Bang Bang all the way out to L.A. to get a tattoo of two guns on each of her ribs. Bang Bang says she originally wanted them on her shoulders, but decided to put them in a location a tad bit more discreet.

“She loves the gun tattoo. She got the tattoo last Thursday, March 19,” Bang Bang tells Life & Style.

“She flew me out to LA for the day because she was getting a tattoo for one of her friends as a birthday gift. She’d been toying with the idea for a while to get another tattoo. I’ve done other tattoos for her; I added stars to the ones she already had. So when I was done with her friend, we talked about what she wanted to get. She was doing research on what would look good, and I drew up a couple of things on the back of her arm, but they weren’t the perfect one.

Lil Kim going to rehearsals for \"Dancing with the Stars\" in Los Angeles (Mar. 25th 2009) Lil Kim going to rehearsals for \"Dancing with the Stars\" in Los Angeles (Mar. 25th 2009)

They say Lil Kim went under the knife (once again) for some good old healthy facial reconstruction before filming for Dancing With the Stars to fix what her previous surgeries messed up, which makes a whole lot of sense. Right? What business is it of ours anyway…

Lil Kim was concerned with her appearance on the show, so right before Dancing With the Stars, she had reconstructive surgery to fill in her nose, and fix all the deformities that her previous surgeries caused. She is shooting a music video this Saturday for a new song she’s been working on.

The paps caught her on the way to a dance studio in Los Angeles, CA Wednesday for rehearsals. Catch her on ABC’s hit series, Dancing With the Stars, Monday nights at 8:00/7:00 central. Check your local listings for more details.

Stacy Dash // CW's The Game

The beautiful (understatement, we know) Stacy Dash will appear on an episode of The CW series, The Game, Friday. Our people over at Hip Hollywood caught up with the 43-year-old actress in between takes. When they asked her how she felt about being a part of the cast, she had no shame in announcing her excitement.

I feel so welcomed. It’s like I’ve been there the whole time. It’s just … the energy! You’re happy to be at work, which is rare! But you know what? After this scene, I think I scored! I think I’m in there. So, you know, fingers crossed, I don’t know.

Stacy’s character will be introduced to audiences this Friday (March 27th) as the new love interest of Jason Pitts. The show airs on The CW Fridays at 8:30/7:30 central. Check your local listings for more details.

Blender Magazine // Kelly ClarksonPun definitely intended. Signs of a troubled economy pop back up after it was announced in a staff meeting Thursday morning that Alpha Media Group would be shutting down Blender Magazine, eliminating about 30 jobs and reducing its portfolio of titles to only Maxim Magazine. The current April 2009 issue out now, with Kelly Clarkson on the cover, will be Blender’s last, with its Co-CEO leaving and its editorial staff moving over to Maxim and Maxim Digital.

The remaining CEO, Stephen Duggan, said in a company memo that the company was closing Blender with great sadness. “Since 2001, Blender has provided unmatched music coverage and entertainment news in its unique voice to a profoundly dedicated audience of music enthusiasts,” Mr. Duggan wrote. “We are particularly grateful to the sales team and to the tremendously talented editorial staff for their hard work and commitment to Blender.”
