Rihanna at LAX airport in Los Angeles (September 15th 2009)

Fresh from her performance with Jay-Z and Kanye West the night before at the Jay Leno Show in Los Angeles, a very cheerful Rihanna was spotted making her way through the terminals at LAX airport Tuesday (Sep 15) to catch a flight out of the city so that she could soak up the events of NY Fashion Week this week.

It seems as though her ex boyfriend Chris Brown still has feelings for her. He posted this to his Twitter early this morning:

MY HEART IS INCOMPLETE… the part that is complete is my love for fans, career, friends, family.. god. but im missing someone or somthing.

He then linked to a fan-made YouTube video featuring old pictures of him and Rihanna with “Changed Man” playing in the background. Of course, he later deleted the tweet and replaced it with this message:

I AINT POSTIN S*** ELSE ABOUT ME(PERSONALLY)…. IM SO OVER ALL THIS BULLS***..

Kanye West interview with Jay Leno + "Run This Town" performance (click to watch!)

Following his much publicized outburst at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, rapper Kanye West sat down with famous TV personality Jay Leno for a short interview aired on the live premiere of Leno’s new primetime show, “The Jay Leno Show” Monday night. In the interview, a very somber Kanye West apologized (for the third time) and explained his side of the situation while making sure he wasn’t trying to justify his own actions.

When Leno recalled meeting West’s late mother Dr. Donda West (who passed away in November 2007) and asked Kanye what she would have thought about his actions Sunday night (Sep 13) at the VMAs, the Chicago bred rapper sat silent for more than 20 seconds to try and compose himself. The live audience was also dead silent as they wanted to hear what Kanye had to say.

“Obviously, I deal with hurt, and so many celebrities, they never take the time off, and I never took the time off, really,” West explained. “I’ve really never taken the time off. It’s been music after music and tour after tour. And I’m just ashamed my hurt caused someone else hurt.”

Leno said West asked to speak prior to the Jay-Z-led performance and thanked the superstar for honoring the commitment to perform. West said the past 24 hours had been extremely difficult for him. He said he immediately knew his behavior was inappropriate and apologized for stepping on Swift’s emotion, as the young starlet was jittery onstage celebrating her big VMA win. “It was just very rude, period,” West said. “I’d like to apologize to her in person.”

Leno tried to lighten the mood at times, asking West when he knew his protest crossed the line. “As soon as I gave the mic back to her and she didn’t keep going,” he said to a small laugh from the audience. West, however, was anything but humorous throughout his three minutes with Leno. He teared up when the talk-show host brought up his late mother, whom he lost in November 2007 due to complications following cosmetic surgery. The rapper addressed his broken engagement and mother’s passing in his last album, 808s & Heartbreak, but he’s attempted to deal with his emotions onstage rather than behind closed doors.

Now, he appears to be ready to confront some buried pains in private. “I have to analyze how I’m gonna make it through the rest of this life and improve,” he said.

Chris Brown with his mother Joyce Hawkins and his attorney Mark Geragos

Troubled star Chris Brown appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live Wednesday night (Sep 2) and partook in his first interview since his February 2009 altercation with his then girlfriend Rihanna. If you’re a regular celebrity gossip blog reader and enjoy keeping up with celebrities in the news and tabloids, you probably didn’t learn too much from the interview. In fact, the main topic of discussion from viewers had nothing to do with the incident at all! Most people were fascinated with Chris Brown’s blue bowtie and cared nothing about what was going on in the interview. Someone even created a website for it (ROFL!)

But anyway, continue reading for the full interview where Chris admits to still loving Rihanna and all that good stuff…

Rihanna and Tweety Bird at Six Flag's Magic Mountain in Valencia, CA (August 31st 2009)

The ride you see her getting on is called the “Tatsu,” and apparently it’s one of the world’s longest, fastest AND tallest flying roller coasters, boasting 3,602 feet of track and speeds up to 62 miles per hour. It also reaches heights of up to 17 stories high.

Chris Brown and his mom Joyce Hawkins on Larry King Live

Singer Chris Brown has slammed reports alleging that he “forgot” what happened the night he beat Rihanna. The internet went crazy yesterday when a 30 second clip of his hour-long interview with CNN’s “Larry King Live” was released and posted all over blogs, social sites and other websites. In the short clip, Brown tells Larry King he doesn’t remember all of the details from that February night, but according to Chris, that 30 second clip doesn’t represent the entire interview and was totally taken out of context:

“There have been reports on the internet that I didn’t remember what happened that night with Rihanna. I want to try and set things straight. That 30 seconds of the interview they used of me was taken from a one hour interview during which that same question was asked something like 4 or 5 times — and when you look at the entire interview you will see it is not representative of what I said.
