RIHANNA BRIT COLLABORATION CANCELLED
The collaboration between Rihanna and the Brits has cancelled and she will not be performing. "Tinie's team thought it was in the bag but there seem to be problems from Rihanna's side. It doesn't look like her schedule will allow enough rehearsal time," a source told the Daily Star.
It means those who were going to tune in to the show to see the Caribbean artist sing may be left saddened.

SHEERAN BATTLES WITH RIHANNA
Ed Sheeran is battling Rihanna for the top spot in album chart. At the time of writing, only Grammy award winner Rihanna has sold more copies - for her album, Loud.
No 5 Collaborations Project was funded by Ed and sees him joined by 10 of the UK's leading MCs.
"I feel great, but it's a lot to take in," said Ed. "It's all down to the fans being really supportive - they are the main reason it is where it is."
RIHANNA BREAKS UP
Rihanna and Matt Kemp have both broke up due to various issues. Dodgers baseball player and her boyfriend of almost a year. Matt apparently wasn't too pleased with his famous girlfriend either. "Matt's sick of always following after her like a puppy dog all over the world.
He wants something more normal," a source said. The pair was first spotted canoodling in Mexico last January and were most recently photographed cozying up in Paris in last month.
If RiRi and Matt really did call it quits, she hasn't looked too upset about it during her holiday trip to her native Barbados.
CARDLE ENJOYED DUET WITH RIHANNA
Matt Cardle says that he loved the steamy duet with Rihanna. Rihanna arrived on stage in a black dress slashed to the thigh and Matt could hardly keep his eyes
off her.
And there was some real chemistry between them as they danced seductively towards the end of their show-stopping performance.
Speaking on The Xtra Factor, ladies man Matt admitted he had loved the duet.
RIHANNA FINISHED ABOUT BROWN
Rihanna has said that she is done talking about Chris Brown. It's been nearly two years since the pop star's infamous pre-Grammy-night altercation with then-boyfriend Brown. But Rihanna hasn't shied from dishing on the topic; just look to her upcoming feature in British GQ, the December issue of U.K. Marie Claire, or her megahits, Love the Way You Lie, Parts 1 and 2.
But when one of Rihanna's fans called her out on Twitter recently, the singer blasted back on the defensive.
