Jesus, just say "yeah, I'm takin' it from him." What's with the big friggin' mystery? Does all the suspense really sell more records? Rihanna spoke to Elle magazine and is still playing coy about her relationship with Chris Brown. I need a cocktail to take the edge off because this is making me grouchy.
"We've always been friends," she tells the magazine, "but we're very close now." And that's it. What the eff are you afraid of? What - he won't commit? F*ck him and the horse he rode in on. Just find some new D! You sell more records than him, what the hell are you afraid of? Get with Kanye, you're on his tour and he's newly single. That'll show Chris Brown!
Another thing that Rihanna won't talk about are those age-old rumors that she got after it with her mentor, Jay-Z. She knows better than to talk about that because Beyonce will find her.
"I get asked about it all the time and I'm like, 'You're asking, but you know the answer,'" she says. "I don't even like to address it anymore."
Rihanna was reportedly "surprised" by Hova's April wedding to Beyonce. Which means her ass wasn't invited or it's even more lies! I wouldn't be shocked if she wasn't invited, though. Beyonce probably spent her bachelorette party throwing darts at a picture of Rihanna's face and texting her death threats.

It's easy to forget that Gwyneth Paltrow dated her Se7en costar Brad Pitt back in the 90s -- in fact the two were even engaged at one point.
And up until now Gwyneth has always wished him well, and she even admitted once that she was lucky to have been with him because she was "such a mess" at that point in her life.
But for some reason this weekend when OK! Magazine caught Gwyneth at the Iron Man premiere, Gwyneth wasn't quite as kind.
Reporters asked Gwyn if she had any well wishes for Brad and Angelina, who are expecting twins. According to the article, "The Shakespeare In Love star twisted her mouth and pertly pronounced 'No!'"
Perhaps she didn't realize that the baby has been confirmed, and didn't want to give anything away. She probably is stuck in that mode after having to be so mum about Jay-Z and Beyonce's wedding.

It's true. I went to journalism school, and if there was one important skill I learned, it was how to snoop around public records.
But unfortunately, I was on an extended weekend vacay, and just let People Magazine do all the hard work locating the official signed marriage license of Beyonce and Jay-Z.
According to the Scarsdale town clerk, the license was received on Friday -- which is more than the 5 days allowed after the wedding to turn it in. The document lists the wedding date as April 4.
No worries though, as the license is expected to be processed without any penalty because the requirement is frequently waived.
Now the two can stop hiding their love -- and more importantly, Beyonce can stop hiding that bling. You know that's what everyone has really been waiting for!

Jay-Z and Beyoncé's honeymoon period appears to have lasted about as long as Eddie Murphy's last wedding. This happy moment between the recently wedded couple was short-lived, with witnesses claiming that the couple engaged in a lover's quarrel at a recent performance of Jay-Z's at the Hollywood Bowl.
Jay-Z was on stage while the first strains of their collaborative single, "Crazy In Love," started playing at which point Jay told the DJ, "F**k that. Sorry B. but f**k that--let's play something else."
The gist was that he was simply joking around, but a source dished to the The Mirror that the hottest chick in the game was not pleased. "After he came off stage, she confronted him, demanding to know what the hell his comments had been about. She was gesturing wildly and not looking happy," said the witness.
However, it sounds as if Jay-Z had sufficiently apologized because later in the evening they kissed and made up. Did Jay momentarily forget the hidden track from The Writing's on the Wall? Thou shall not trip so soon after the wedding.

Joining Dykes on Bikes after you just married a dude is a weird move, but celebrities are confusing.
Someone's breaking their confidentiality agreement! The florist from Beyonce and Jay-Z's wedding is speaking up and ruining their marketing plan! Florist Amy Vongpitaka, owner of Amy's Orchid's in NYC, is running her mouth about how the flowers went.
"It made the apartment like a heaven, like a palace," says Vongpitaka. "You walked in, and it was all flowers -- everything white and creamy." White and creamy wedding? Uh, ok. Vongpitaka says the couple ordered over 750 lbs. of flowers.
Beyonce specifically requested foot long garlands to hang around Jay-Z's crib, according to the florist. She was only given "one week's notice" before the nuptials.
Beyonce's going to read this and this bitch will never work again. Beyonce might already be emotional, due to her possible pregnancy. She won't sit for this. Amy will be selling flowers out beside her van on Easter. She'll be the woman sitting on the old boom box, holding roses and working a crazed look.

I don't think she's ready for that belly...
Beyonce and Jay-Z's suprise wedding this weekend is still unconfirmed, but it is already fueling more rumors about the couple.
A few outlets are reporting that Beyonce has a bun in the oven, but there have been no other details released about a possible pregnancy.
As for new details about the wedding, it seems the couple's first dance after becoming man and wife was to none other than their hit duet, "Crazy in Love."
Here the newlyweds are seen leaving the Bloomburg Building to catch a flight to Atlanta.

Jay-Z might need to go undercover as a single guy. There are videos to shoot, and women to entrance. Nothing kills a mood like that band of gold, Freda Payne! Here's Jay-Z smiling and carting around a briefcase. He's still not talking about his wedding.
But, it looks like he's pulling out of a major music festival in the UK to spend some time with the world's favorite spokesmodel, his wife Beyonce. Reports say that Hova isn't going to keep his previously scheduled appearance at the Glastonbury Festival in England in late June.
The word is that he won't be joining other headliners The Verve and Kings of Leon because bitches are squawking that he's led to "disinterest" in this year's festivities.
"He [Jay - Z] hasn't liked all this talk of how Glastonbury is more urban and hip this year because of his appearance," another source said.
Tickets haven't sold out, as in previous years. Blame the Verve! They had one hit song! I think if this means that Jay-Z can spend some cuddle time with this bride, it's all good. Anything that shows us this wasn't some elaborate marketing marriage of convenience to get us to spend more money on things we don't need. Like infallible lip color.

I thought the guests were supposed to wear ivory? That's white, isn't it? Beyonce must have been ready to start ripping wigs when she saw this one. And here I figured Kelly or Michelle would be the bitch to go renegade and try and ruin the wedding. Here's Gwyneth Paltrow rolling up on Beyonce and Jay-Z's wedding.
Speaking of marriages, Gwyneth's moms Blythe Danner is defending her daughter's. Blythe addressed rumors that Gwyneth's marriage to Coldplay guy Chris Martin has hit the skids.
"Oh good god! It's just tragic that people have to make up stuff and write stuff. I've never seen two happier parents and people. I don't get it," Danner said.
I do. Happy marriages are boring. Haven't you ever watched the soap operas?
Blythe also said that Gwyneth hasn't given up her career, she's just trying to find a "balance" between acting and motherhood. In the meantime, she's getting her kicks by acting like an attention whore at people's weddings. Why didn't she just wear a black dress and a veil?

This is my new favorite outfit of all time. Get it, Mary! So people are still not confirming that Beyonce and Jay-Z got married on Friday. But Mary J. Blighe kinda did on stage in Greensboro, North Carolina on Saturday.
"Congratulations to my man, Jay-Z, and my girl B," she said before launching into "You're All I Need."
Jay-Z and Mary J. are on tour together. He performed sans wedding ring and didn't say a damn thing. This is all so romantic. Why didn't they just get married at a drive-up in Vegas? Who works the day after their wedding? How much money hustling do you need? Fly to a private island and enjoy your new wedded bliss, weirdos!
