Photos: Rihanna’s Two-Piece Barbados Vacation (in Bikini and at her Granpa's Birthday Bash)

Who says you can't squeeze family and bikini time into the same vacation?

Rihanna proved she has mastered the art of multitasking during her recent trip to Barbados, spending ample time hanging at the beach and at home.

The "Pour It Up" singer — who is always bikini-ready — put her toned body on display on Wednesday, rocking a teeny white two-piece during a break from her Diamonds World Tour. Looking effortlessly gorgeous in Ray-Bans, loose wavy hair, and red lipstick, RiRi appeared to be enjoying her downtime. She was photographed drinking some beers with friends, Jet Skiing, and even posing for what looks like an impromptu photo shoot.

However, the 25-year-old superstar covered up (well, covered up for Rihanna, at least) for her grandfather's 85th birthday earlier in the week. see more photos after the cut...

Rihanna Ranks No.1 in Touring Revenue

While Kanye West is canceling shows because of poor ticket sales, Rihanna is selling out concerts. Her Diamonds World Tour has been ranked No.1 in touring revenue...

From Billboard 

Rihanna ranks at No. 1 on Hot Tours with sales reported from her Diamonds world tour. The Diamonds tour, in support of Rihanna's 2012 album Unapologetic, kicked off on March 8 in Buffalo, N.Y. and played U.S. and Canadian arenas through May 7, closing with a packed house at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. With revenue from the European dates added, the tour's overall gross passed the $100 million mark from more than 1.2 million sold tickets.
Following the run through Europe, the Barbadian singer spent September and October on brief jaunts through markets in Asia, Australia/New Zealand and South Africa as well as stops in Abu Dhabi and Tel Aviv. She is currently on the road for a final North American trek that wraps on Nov. 15 in New Orleans.

Rihanna covers her tribal hand tattoo with a more hideous tattoo

Earlier this month Rihanna shocked her fans by getting a traditional maori tattoo performed with a chisel and mallet. She just got the painful memento covered up...with a more hideous tattoo.

According to reports, Rihanna was so over her maori tattoo that she flew her New York tattoo artist Bang Bang to the Dominican Republic to cover it between tour dates! Check out the new ink she got after the cut...

Chris brown Blasts Rihanna in new Single

Last night Chris Brown released his previously unheard verse from DJ Khaled's single 'I'm Still' containing a clear and present shot at ex-girlfriend, Rihanna...

On the verse Chris raps,

"Every nigga in the industry done fucked my b***h/ And all my nig*as said I told ya/Now all these rap ni*gas wanna be political/Nah, f**k that I'm a real lyrical/killer"

Grow up, Chris Brown, she hasn't been with that many - only Drake, Kanye West, J.Cole, Eminem, ASAP Rocky, Ashton Kutcher, Matt Kemp, Justin Timberlake and Josh Hartnett (rumoured)... that's not everyone in the industry. *sigh* Listen to the song after the cut...

Johannesburg press dub Rihanna's show a rip-off

I'm sure most of you are more interested in the 'Abused, killed, dumped; do you know this boy?' story but we are talking about Rihanna here...:-) So she made history at her concert in Johannesburg South Africa last Sunday October 13th by becoming the youngest person ever to sell out the 67 thousand seat FNB Stadium, but the local news dubbed her show a rip off...

From The Star SA

Sunday night’s Rihanna concert has left some fans complaining of lip-synching and a below-par performance. She was trending on Twitter yesterday morning after her performance at the FNB Stadium on Sunday night, with a mix of adoring messages and not-so-glowing reviews.
The latter included allegations that Rihanna was miming some of her songs, did not do a single costume change, had not performed some of her biggest hits and lacked vitality. “It’s obvious, you know when someone is lip-synching – I was in the Golden Circle, I could see it,” said Sharon Seretlo, a photographer at The Star.

Some of these artists like to come to Africa and do anything they like...continue...

Rihanna's new tattoo inspired by Chris Brown

Last week Rihanna underwent a painful chisel and mallet traditional Maori tattoo procedure in New Zealand, now her tattoo artist reveals the new ink symbolizes a spiritual cleansing from her abusive ex Chris Brown...

Tattoo artist Inia Taylor tells Celebuzz

"I didn’t realize she had such a hard time. Apparently, she had such an asshole of a boyfriend she said. The tattoo is just a reminder of the things in the past. Lord knows, she overcame a lot of that shit. It’s not about getting a tattoo, it’s a ceremony. Tattoos aren’t fashion. They are a way to get rid of pain in your life. You have to create pain to get over pain."

Video and Photos: Rihanna gets a traditional Maori tattoo

Legendary New Zealand tattoo artist Inia Taylor yesterday shared images of Rihanna getting a permanent traditional Maori tattoo on her right hand. The Maori tattoo is one of the most painful kind of skin marking out there because instead of needle puncture, this one is performed with chisel, ink pigment and mallet...and rather than a smooth surface like modern tattoo would give you, this one leaves the skin with grooves.

She got the tattoos in New Zealand after wrapping up one leg of her world tour. Rihanna seems to like pain, sha! Y'all need to watch the video of her getting the tattoo, painful to watch. See the video and the end result after the cut...
