Rihanna and Chris Brown are pictured here shopping together at the Louis Vuitton store around Champs Elysees on Thursday (December 18) in Paris, France. She’s in France because tomorrow (Friday 19) night she’s going to perform live on the Star Academy final show.

Love the sunglasses at night.

Rihanna is wearing a black on black ensemble. I quite like the ruffly top and skin tight legging pants. Chris played the dutiful boyfriend role and waited around while she shopped to her heart’s content. He is wearing a necklace with a Stormtrooper pendant (the soldiers with white body armor from Star Wars.)

Here are Rihanna and Chris Brown performing at Z100’s Jingle Ball at Madison Square Garden in New York City last night.

Chris talked to Billboard about making guests spots on other albums:

“I did (a song titled “Human”) with Tim McGraw. It’s incredible. I wanted to do something more along the country line. That’s a bigger and different audience for me. I also did a song with the Japanese group called the Teriyaki Boys out of (producer/performer) Pharrell’s camp!”

He added:

“I actually have a couple of songs written already that would be dope collaborations between me and her [Rihanna]. And I’m writing for her new album now!”

He continued:

” [I] did a couple of songs for the Jonas Brothers, but I don’t know if they took any of them. And I did a couple of songs with the Backstreet Boys and the Pussycat Dolls. I’ve also been writing songs
for several new girl groups who are coming out.”

Chris Brown is pissed off that one of his new singles Electric Guitar off his third album has become available on the Web. The album isn’t due out until next year and he is telling everyone how he feels about it:

“I’m mad that it’s leaked. The record’s not finished. It’s supposed to be me and Rihanna.”

Electric Guitar will not be Chris’s first collaboration with his alleged girlfriend. He was featured on the remix of Rihanna’s hit song Umbrella, and he also co-wrote one of her latest tracks, Disturbia
