Does Rihanna have what it takes for movies?

Rihanna is venturing into new waters with her first big-screen acting gig! The singer has signed on for Battleship, the film adaptation of the classic board game, except, you know, with Taylor Kitsch, Alexander Skarsgard, and aliens.
The premise makes this one sound like a risky project to use as your big debut, so here’s hoping it’s not yet another singer-to-actor sinker, like Glitter was for Mariah Carey.
What do you think — does Rihanna have what it takes for movies? Or should she stick to her music?

At What Age Does Virginity Become a Stigma?

The average teenage girl loses her virginity at 17.3 (17.0 for boys), but the age at which it becomes a stigma can vary among subcultures, religions, and even schools.
Tina Fey famously held onto her virginity until she was 24, but one woman wrote about waiting until 32! …And not because of religion! Reasons ranged from fear it would hurt, anxiety about pregnancy and STDs, and a five-year illness until the reason was simply virginity itself. Why give it up if you’ve waited so long? Plus, sometimes the fear of revealing …

The origin of the French Kiss…

So we thrashed them in the Fifa 2010 Soccer World Cup, but we have lots of things to thank France for! Crepe, lingerie, romance and of course the French kiss!
What we call French kissing, the French call baiser avec la langue (kiss with tongue) or for slang patin (ice-skating shoe). Like a figure eight, I guess? I can’t even imagine what horrid imitations come out of that!
It’s unclear who coined the phrase, but France has been the unofficial romance capital of the world for centuries. If France equals romance, …

Signs it’s time to leave the Bar!

There comes a time in every young woman’s life when she looks at her friend laying on the bathroom floor at the bar and says to herself “it’s time to take her home.” 
Of course there were signs all night that it wasn’t going to end well. Like when she went outside to boot and rally. Or when she wrestled some stranger’s phone out of his hands (she lost hers) so she can call her ex boyfriend. And of course there was that moment when she was standing on top …

Crimes of Fashion!

While most people would choose a demure pants or suit to court, It seems Hollywood stars don’t seem to understand that logic. Lindsay Lohan sneaked a not-so-secret “f**k u” to the judge who sentenced her to jail for 90 days this week.
The Mean Girls actress will spend three months behind bars for breaking the terms of her probation in a 2007 drugs case. But the judge would have probably added a few more months to that sentence if she had spotted the “f**k u” written on top of the nail …
