Rhianna arrives at LAX airport in Los Angeles with her BFF Melissa. Over the weekend, the 21-year-old Bajan babe taped her New Year's Eve segment during the Big Apple blizzard.
Rihanna recently shared her her fave song of 2009 with MTV: "[Jay-Z and Alicia Keys'] 'Empire State of Mind' was definitely one of my favorite records of 2009... one of the biggest records of 2009, also. It's timeless.
It's epic, and it makes me want to be from New York every time I hear it. I'm like, 'Wow, I wish I was i n New York, or I wish I was from New York.' It's just that great feeling when you hear it." Rihanna's Favorite Artist of The Year: "[Lady Gaga]. She has a very bold, fearless image and, I have to say, I have so much respect for original artists... who aren't afraid to do what they do. That's what I respect the most. She's awesome."
