“We’ve been working together for a long time and he trusts me,” she explained. “I wanted to do something ‘very Michelle Pfeiffer from Scarface.’”
Rihanna sparkled in Neil Lane jewels – diamond and gold snake armlet, a wide gold cuff, jazzy gold and diamond rings and geometric diamond and gold triangle earrings. She finished off her look with Jacquie Aiche body necklaces,Christian Louboutin shoes, and Jimmy Choo clutch.

Jay-Z and Beyoncé do their own spin on 2Pac’s classic“Me And My Girlfriend”, only with a twist: While 2Pac was actually talking about his gun, Jay’s talking about his actual girlfriend — making it a romanticized Bonnie and Clyde-type story that many listeners initially took 2Pac’s version as (but considerably less violent)
Kanye West does production duty, and he keeps the main sound of 2Pac’s original while still making it sound fresh
The song was released on Jay’s 2002 double album The Blueprint²: The Gift and the Curse, and it was one of the biggest hits on the album: It was not only Jay’s second top ten single, but Beyoncé’s first top ten single as a solo artist. Check out the video below:
