Rihanna is now single and definitely ready to mingle after reportedly breaking up with her baseball player beau Matt Kemp. The sexy singer, who spent the Christmas holiday in her homeland of Barbados, grabbed a bite at Philippe Chow in Los Angeles with friends.
The food must have put the Barbadan beauty in a great mood because on the way out, she told our videographer that her New Year's resolution is "sex."
Thanks for the mental picture, RiRi.

Samantha Ronson and CoverGirl ... not two words you'd typically see in the same sentence, however SamRo attended the cosmetic company's 50th Anniversary celebration at BOA Steakhouse in West Hollywood.
Dressed for the occasion in jeans, a beanie, black Converse sneakers and wearing no CoverGirl products, our favorite DJ kept a low profile while spinning for party-goers including CoverGirl Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia de Rossi, Drew Barrymore, Sofia Vergara, Kendra Wilkinson ... and the face of CG's NatureLuxe line, 21-year-old country cutie Taylor Swift.
Too bad SamRo's gal pal and next door neighbor Lindsay Lohan didn't go along for the ride. Would've been the perfect place for the two former lovebirds to kiss and
make-up!
On her way out of BOA, Samantha buys a rose ... and is asked if it's for Lindsay! Listen to her witty response below. Loves it!

Zac Efron is putting his heart, soul and hair into his upcoming role
The Lucky One in which the 23-year-old actor will play a marine.
The newly buzzed hottie left a Hollywood studio with a new Canon camera ... wearing a tight shirt, khakis and shades, and we can't help but notice that ridiculous bod! Zac has definitely packed on the muscle for his role as a member of the armed forces, and we don't mind.
This guy is picture perfect!

Looks like Mariah Carey and her soon-to-be-born twins will be cruising around LA in style ... thanks to hubby Nick Cannon!
The 30-year-old radio host bought his pregnant wife a Rolls Royce Phantom for Christmas. A Phantom will set you back around $400 thousand. Not bad for only being married two years.
Mariah didn't want to keep the generous gift to herself, so the divalicious singer tweeted a pic of her brand new ride with the following message:
Still getting over my Christmas gift from @NickCannon. License plate:mommyMC : )"
Ok, the license plate is a bit gag inducing, but congrats to Mimi on her gift. Let's hope she doesn't mind spit-up and crumbs on those nice leather seats. Get ready for those babies, Mariah!

Just when Lindsay was doing well, staying out of trouble, trying to get back in the judge's good favor before her next hearing on February 25th, girlfriend goes and gets a parking ticket!
She went to visit a pal, parked in a permit-only zone, and parking enforcement wasn't gonna give her a free ride ... Lindsay got smacked with a $60 ticket :(
Come on, Linds, read the signs!
Meanwhile, Lindsay seems to be OUT of trouble as far as Dawn Holland, former Betty Ford tech, is concerned. The rehab assistant who was paid for an interview by a gossip website, claiming Lindsay assaulted after a drunken evening out, has since recanted her story and dropped charges against Lilo and has now gone so far as to have her lawyer issue this statement:
"“It is important to note that it was Ms. Lohan, and not Ms. Holland who called 911 on December 12th. Had Ms. Lohan not called 911 – this incident never would’ve been public knowledge, let alone criminally investigated. Ms Holland has long held that recovery is not always a pretty process and the workings of a recovery center have never been for the faint of heart. As a recovering addict herself, Ms. Holland is proud of Lindsay for making the always difficult voyage toward recovery. Had the interaction between these two ladies occurred in front of a police officer anywhere in this Country, no probation would’ve been violated, no arrests would’ve been made and certainly no criminal charges would have been filed. The recent reports of criminality and probation violations are much ado about nothing.â€Â
Do we smell a payoff here? ...
