Rihanna’s summer smash-hit ‘Umbrella’ was originally intended for Mary J Blige, it has been revealed.

The ‘Family Affair’ singer was offered the song at the beginning of the year - but she was too busy to record it.

Rihanna, the new Jr. diva on the block, was seen leaving “The Late Show with David Letterman” yesterday, and she was giving off major divatude! The songstress was all things diva; dog in hand, mass security, and an awaiting SUV. Someone’s been taking notes!

Fans called to the uninterested singer to sign autographs — or even just throw a wave their way — they got neither. One new ex-fan yelled, “Don’t do that Rihanna! We won’t buy your CDs!”

A girl gets a hit or two and starts getting all snootified! Hope her umbrella can cover that big head!

After lackluster years in Miami and New York, MTV went west this year to seek its fortune for the Video Music Awards at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas.

But like most Vegas gaming rooms, the VMAs were filled with dizzying lights, an air of heightened anticipation, and very infrequent payouts.

The plan was to shake things up, but unfortunately it felt like MTV shook a little too hard.

R+b star Rihanna reduced a crew member on the set of the video for Umbrella to tears because she was “the most incredible thing she had ever seen”.

The singer, 19, was decorated in silver paint for part of the video accompanying the hit single, and director Chris Applebaum admits the sight made those on-set extremely emotional.

He says, “I had one eye in the camera and the other one was closed. And I heard this odd sound, and so I opened the other eye and looked down, and the camera assistant was crying.

When Rihanna set out to record her third album, Good Girl Gone Bad, she had one strict goal in mind: Take more chances. Musically, lyrically and even visually, the Bohemian beauty wanted to reintroduce herself to her fans and the music industry alike.

According to director Chris Applebaum — who helmed the clip for “Umbrella,” the album’s first single — Rih Rih was adamant about exacting her objective, even if she wasn’t so specific about the details for the job at hand.

“She couldn’t stress [enough] to me how much she wanted to take chances,” he said. “She said, ‘Please send me something, but I want to do some choreography. I really want to do some extraordinary performance, but please don’t send me anything unless it’s really, really out there.’ It was probably one of those things a director is dying to hear from an artist, especially one that I respect and love as much as Rihanna. I knew it was going to be an incredible challenge. And that it was going to be really exciting.”
