Body issues

• Rihanna showed up in this body-hugging re-creation of the Guggenheim Museum at Glamour magazine's Women of the Year Awards at New York's Carnegie Hall on Monday night. "As usual I decided to wear the tightest dress I could find," Rihanna joked about the white mermaid outfit after she made her way slowly to the stage to accept the "back on top" prize.

After staying silent for months following the abuse she suffered at the hands of Chris Brown, Rihanna is now back in the spotlight. She's got several hit new singles on the radio, she recently did an in-depth interview with Dianne Sawyer and now, she's picked up the Glamour Woman of the Year Award. In her acceptance speech, Rihanna thanked her mom, scolded Maya Angelou, and spoke about her PMS. You can't say she doesn't do things her way.
Said Rihanna, "I am shaking right now - I am so nervous, but overwhelmed and honored... to be Glamour's Woman of the Year."
Rihanna accepted her award with tears in her eyes, which she explained with the joke, "I'm PMSed, sorry." Rihanna wasn't done with her comedy act, then explaining that she'd been waiting in the wings because she knew she wouldn't have been able to make it up the stairs in her dress.
