Pop stars Rihanna and Keri Hilson are gracing magazine covers.  Rihanna is posing on the cover of W magazine and talking about tattoos and Chris Brown.

Though her dulce de leche skin is lineless and her eyes bright as a baby’s even after a long workday, it’s easy to forget that Rihanna is only 21 years old. Perhaps that’s because she has released four hit-filled albums in only four years, making her debut at age 17 seem aeons ago. Or maybe it’s that her performances are a paradigm of cool self-possession; in the video for “Run This Town,” the Grammy-nominated song she recorded with Jay-Z and Kanye West last year, her voice is so full and centered, her panache so effortless, that she makes the world’s biggest hip-hop stars seem little more than backup singers. Finally, of course, it could be because, over the past year, she has endured not only the now infamous abuse by her then boyfriend Chris Brown but also the subsequent leaking of photos of her disfigured face, months of paparazzi stalking and incessant news coverage. The Barbadian-born pop star, however, has her own explanation for her preternatural maturity: “I’ve been paying my own bills since I was 17, living in a foreign country,” she says out of expertly shellacked fuchsia lips that are almost always perched in a half smile. “And I’ve always been a little older than my real age. People always said that to me, and I always felt that in my head.”

Keri Hilson delves deep into explaining her relationships with men in the new issue of Jet.

“I like a guy that is wise and can stimulate me with conversation..I don’t fancy entertainers or ballplayers..” –Keri Hilson

There have been some controversial statistics about why attractive, successful Black women are still single and looking.   Keri has access to eligible entertainers and ballplayers who have bank and clout. She doesn’t need to limit her dating pool to someone who is not in the same league and can barely offer conversation. C’mon girl. Why do beautiful,talented and intelligent sisters have to downplay their accomplishments to get a date? Do you think Kim Kardashian and her sister Khloe were thinking about that before they landed their bankrolled ballers? Ask Tiger Woods about the technique. Beckys know how to play the field.
