Rihanna continues to promotion her new album ‘Rated R’ with a visit to BET’s 106 & Park to perform new single ‘Hard’.

Normally I can get over the crazy looks Rihanna wears pretty quickly, but I have a feeling this horror will be etched in my memory for a long while because this has to be the worst she has ever looked.

The Jean Paul Gaultier Spring 2010 dungarees are incredibly unflattering, as they are in the style of harem pants.

Then she adds a hairnet into the equation, plus fishnet gloves and multiple chains and D&G boots.

I wouldn’t even clean my house in this get up. *shakes head*

On Saturday night before the X Factor final on ITV, we got see more of Cheryl Cole on her one-off show “Cheryl’s Night In”.

She was still fighting for this love wearing her favourite Alexander Wang boots, she’d worn in her first performance on the X Factor a few weeks ago.

This time she swapped the military outfit for a pink ninja-style look.

My favourite look of the show as when Cheryl perform “3 Words” a duet with Black Eyed Peas rapper Will.I.Am.

She looked stunning wearing a her 3rd look from the Stéphane Rolland Fall 2009 Couture collection this year.

This black gown with a sheer yoke had a dramatic train which Cheryl used to full effect during her performance.

Last season Cheryl wore a pink Krystof Strozyna dress on the X Factor, so it wasn’t a surprise to see her wearing the same designer again.

Whilst Cheryl was being interviewed by Holly Willoughby wearing a teal Temperley London gown, Cheryl glowed in an orange and black Krystof Strozyna Spring 2010 pencil dress.

This digital print dress has geometric fabric panels which I absolutely loved.

Love her or loathe her, she’s given us some interesting fashion choices this year.

Alexandra Burke has worn many Emilio Pucci pieces.

When she performed her hit single “Bad Boys” on “Cheryl’s Night In”, she wore an exclusive ‘one-of-a-kind’ outfit designed by Emilio Pucci’s Creative Director Peter Dundas.

The white two piece was covered in studded eagle motif, which sparkled as she performed her energetic dance routine.

A big wow for Alexandra who after one year in showbiz already has big name designers making looks especially for her.

Mr & Mrs Smith almost got ‘jiggy with it’ on a Norwegian talk show last night.

The clearly loved up couple couldn’t hide their affections as they kiss during an interview with host Fredrik Skavlan.

The couple are in Norway as they’re due to host the Nobel Peace Prize concert today in Olso which honours President Obama.

Will Smith looked dashing in his navy suit, whilst his beautiful wife looked gorgeous wearing a navy and gunmetal floral lame brocade sleeveless Naeem Khan Resort 2010 dress.

No wonder they couldn’t keep their hands off each other.

Do not adjust your screens yes this is Lady GaGa without sunglasses and wearing something other than just her pants.

I’ve gotta say it, the girl scrubs up well.

This picture was taken during a taping of “Barbara Walters Presents: The 10 Most Fascinating People of 2009″ which airs tonight in the US at 10pm EST on ABC.

I love that she smartened up for Barbara wearing a black Chanel Fall 2009 boucle skirt suit WITH all the trimmings so many people opt out of wearing.

GaGa even adds more bustle to her ruffled shirt, plus a jeweled brooch to add more fou fou to her look.

I’m guessing she toned down her look as not to give poor Barbara a heart-attack.

I hope I can find this interview on YouTube.

Others who will appear on this show include politician Sarah Palin and American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert.

The first thing I noticed when Cheryl Cole took the stage on Saturday nights X Factor was her shorter hair.

Normally when it comes to hair on this show I’m more interested in Dannii’s forever changing styles.

Cheryl normally doesn’t leave her home without an added 200g of hair extension, so why the sudden shorter style?

I’m guessing it’s because of the flak she’s received for using very obvious extensions in her “5 Problems, 1 Solution” L’Oreal TV ad.

This week Cheryl opted for a black and pink draped Chapurin Spring 2010 mini dress.

The dress looks like it was paired with a large statement necklace on the runway, but as Cheryl sports the same style and it leans in the same way as the runway, I think it’s safe to say this is actually part of the dress.

I love this dress, but the black Louboutin ankle boots aren’t doing it for me…I’m sure you’ll be surprised to know that.

On Sunday nights result show Cheryl opted for another Stéphane Rolland dress after wearing 2 last week.

This time she opted for a dress from the Fall 2009 Couture collection.

Her black lame short dress had an amazing train and voluminous sleeves.

It may have seemed a bit OTT for some of you, but it had just the right amount of drama for me.

Her hair was pulled back on this occasion with a few pieces framing her face.

She finally ditched those ankle boots for a pair of Pierre Hardy chain detailed heels.

I admire Dannii Minogue for continuing to support Australian designers.

On Saturday nights X Factor the judge wore an orange Aurelio Costarella Spring 2010 one-sleeved orange gown paired with Kara Ross jewels.

The colour is gorgeous on Dannii, but I felt there was just too much material, especially around the waist.

The model pulls off this look as she’s taller.

On Sunday night she opted for something short and dazzling from the same designer.

I much preferred this silver Aurelio Costarella Spring 2010 embellished mini dress with slash detail and cold shoulder as it suits her style, plus it complements her figure and shows off her toned legs.

The silver theme continued with silver peep-toes and hooped earrings.

I’ve been dying for someone to wearing a look from Stella McCartney’s Spring 2010 collection, and that honour went to Natalie Portman.

The actress was on the show to promote her new movie “Brothers” also starring Tobey Maguire and Jake Gyllenhaal, which hits theater’s December 4.

Letterman called it “The finest movie made in the last 12, 20 years”, in fact he gushed non stop about the movie during her interview.

Natalie is radiant in her strapless blue mini Stella McCartney Spring 2010 button down dress, with fold detail on the neckline and an A-line skirt.

Her hair is swept to one-side with a jeweled clip decorating her hair, plus she wears her dress with the same purple Aldo heels which she wore with her blue Jason Wu dress.

Unfortunately the screen-grab isn’t doing this dress any justice, so please view the you tube video below.

I WISH this was worn on the red carpet, it has to be one of her best ever looks and Natalie has had plenty of fine moments.

Now I’m the one gushing.
