Rihanna's 2009 had some highs -- Glamour's Woman of the Year, highest debut album ever, cover of GQ. But homegirl has some real lows, too -- getting her ass kicked in public, missing the Grammys, messy fall-out with very famous boyfriend.
Yet, in wrapping up the year, Ri stepped out in style for her New Year's Eve performance at Rockefeller Center in a getup that at first seemed weird, but on second glance worked.
Starting from the top -- the Bajan beauty sported a top hat with flower and veil. Moving on down, she wore a lovely white cropped fur (PETA!) and bustier, showing a little skin. The accessories were on point, too. Even the cocktail ring over the long satin gloves was lovely. Though you can't see her bottom in the shot, she wore jodhpurs and flat boots just to give it a touch of androgyny. I call this Oliver Twist meets Patricia Fields.
Rate it: Hot or not?

For coming back from what she was coming back from, I thought she was really rockin it out, then I read that she wore flat boots. If she was going to wear flats, she should have worn tighter pants for one, but that get up was begging for a lil ... transition?

Being half nacked in public is no new style.My opinion this type dress is what makes America hated by the Muslin fanatic groups.

How can anyone be "sick" of Rihanna when she is only doing what countless others do- Beyonce- how can anyone not say that they are not sick of her- Beyonce is so full of herself- I don't know if anyone has noticed, but anytime another female performer threatens to outshine her or is on top other than her, what does she do- do a video with them- examples Shakira and now Lady Gaga- it's like she is set on making sure that she will not be forgotten- it's like she wants to show the world a comparison of her and that woman so that she can show the world she is hotter- this woman is off the charts full of herself. If I was a performer and I was on top and doing well, no way in the world would I let Beyonce come in supposedly want to colab with me on a song. Leave Rihanna alone- she is not half as bad as some of these other performers and overexposure is a basic of the game. Just stop hating period.

They are all in the same boat: Using tastless sex inunendos as props to cover up for their horrid singing! For someone that was sooooo battered and bruised by another talentless wonder, she really bounced back when her album dropped. When will the pimping of mainstream R&B by these big time record companies end???

Wow, I thought this was about Rhianna. Stop hatin on Beyonce! She can draw a crowd and hold her own all by herself, she really doesn't have to make a record with anyone else. Collaborations are normal in this industry!
