Be sure to look for Rihanna as she performs on Wednesday’s American Idol results show, just as she has announced her 2010 North American tour, ‘Last Girl On Earth.’

Ke$ha and female rapper Nicki Minaj will open all dates on the Live Nation-produced tour. Tickets go on sale Friday at LiveNation.com.

Set to launch her sold out spring European tour on April 16 in Antwerp, Belgium, Rihanna plans to make 25 stops, at mix of top amphitheaters and arenas throughout North America this summer, beginning July 2 at the White River Amphitheater in Seattle.

Saturday night the stars hit the town for Nickelodeon’s 23rd annual Kids’ choice Awards and you know what? They all looked pretty great. after all, if we were going to an awards show where there was even a slight possibility of getting slimed, we would probably wear our oldest hoodie and tennis shoes. to get the dish on the orange carpet wears, check out our fashion recap below!

TAYLOR LAUTNER
Taylor Lautner must have loved his life at this weekend’s KCAs. Not only did the guy take home the first award of the night for favorite movie actor thanks to his role in “New Moon,” but he looked great doing it. he dressed pretty much how we’d like all guys to dress — simple but sharp in a dark blazer and white tee. he gets bonus points for accessorizing with a silver necklace that wasn’t over the top.

NIKKI REED
While Taylor’s look definitely got our stamp of approval, his “New Moon” costar Nikki Reed left us a bit disappointed. Nikki chose a strapless, floral printed Cynthia Steffe dress that we thought lacked some much needed oomph! Next time, we’d love to see Nikki in something brighter and bolder.

JACKSON RATHBONE
We’ve got the opposite advice for fellow “Twilight“-er Jackson Rathbone. We couldn’t decide whether to look at his printed shoes, his t-shirt or the gold chain dangling from his jeans. It was just too much. Luckily, his look did become more one-toned later in the night — after he got slimed!

JOE JONAS AND DEMI LOVATO
The KCAs must have been memorable for Demi Lovato and Joe Jonas, afterall it was their first major award show outing as an official couple and we’ve got to say, they looked great! Joe looked chic in his grey Hugo Boss suit and white tee, while Demi was ultra trendy in a Black Faith strapless dress. most importantly though, the lovebirds, who recently admitted that the feelings between them were “always there,” rocked some major smiles.

KATY PERRY AND RIHANNA
We were all smiles when we saw Rihanna hit the red carpet, mainly because for once she wasn’t wearing black! We liked that Rihanna dressed KCA-appropriate in a light pink Christian Dior dress. The silver accessories were great too, but her Brian Atwood shoes paired with socks pretty much made no sense to us whatsoever. We should probably go easy on Katy Perry too, after all, the girl did get majorely slimed, but we just can’t get over the fact that her The Blonds dress corset dress needed … well, more dress! sure we understand that the KCAs are all about fun, they are also about the kids.

LEA MICHELE AND CORY MONTEITH
On to the “Gleeks,” we thought Lea Michele looked fab in pink and a ponytail, while Cory Monteith effortlessly pulled of casual cool in a leather jacket and printed tee.

MIRANDA COSGROVE
Kudos to the ladies of Nickelodeon for looking all sorts of fantastic. seriously, we were totally impressed by these young fashionistas, starting with “iCarly” star Miranda Cosgrove, who hit the red carpet in a bold Christian Siriano dress and Christian Louboutin shoes. We thought the color and fit were just right for her!

VICTORIA JUSTICE
One of our favorite looks of the night though was courtesy of “Victorious” star Victoria Justice, who stole the spotlight in a fantastic green Catherine Malandrino dress with off-shoulder sleeves and Alexander Wang ankle shoes. We loved the entire look and can’t wait to see what she pulls out of her closet next!

KEKE PALMER
“True Jackson, VP” star Keke Palmer also made it onto our favorites list in a floral Adam dress that we would totally love to borrow for this spring. We’re sure Keke won’t mind sharing, right?

SELENA GOMEZ
Speaking of fabulous young ladies, Selena Gomez was pretty much the definition of youthful elegance this weekend in an eye-catching yellow Christian Cota dress. We also adored her braid and Sergio Rossi shoes!

MILEY CYRUS
Fellow Disney star Miley Cyrus also attended the KCAs, although her look was markedly different (although, not necessarily in a bad way), than Selana’s. Miley, who took home an award for favorite movie actress, went with something a bit edgier in leather pants and a loose top. Our favorite part? The shoes, which totally had their own attitude.

ZOE SALDANA
We thought “Avatar” star Zoe Saldana also looked really great, albeit a bit mature in an Isabel Marant tweed jacket. at first glance, we thought the jacket was a bit too “workish” for an event like this, but then we decided that pairing it with jeans and heels saved the look.

JUSTIN BIEBER
When we saw Justin Bieber on the orange carpet, the first thing we noticed were his shoes. after all, they were lime green! We’re not usually fans of lime green shoes, but in the context of the event, we liked ‘em! also, props to Justin, who performed his single “Baby” later on in the night, for choosing to pair his green shoes with a nice pair of dark jeans and an awesome vest. Similar to what we said about Joe though, we didn’t think the sunglasses he wore on and off were necessary…like, at all.

DEV PATEL
“The last Airbender” star Dev Patel wore a collared shirt and brown sweater. While we liked his clean-cut vibe, we’d love to see him rock something a bit bolder next time!

ZACHARY LEVI
It seems like “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel” (which won for favorite movie!) actor Zachary Levi took the fun-not-formal notion one step too far. he wore faded jeans and a hoodie. That’s cool when you’re heading to the mall or something, but come on Zachary it is an awards show after all, and we know you can do better!

What were your favorite looks from the Kids choice Awards?

Rihanna kicked off Nickelodeon’s 23rd Annual Kids’ Choice Awards in Los Angeles on Saturday (March 27) with an energetic performance of a medley of her hits, including her latest, Rude Boy.

After descending upon the stage aboard a miniature pink camouflaged tank, the Bajan-born singer got the party started with a watered down version of her rather racy song.

CLICK HERE to check out Rihanna’s performance.

While it was obvious she sang live as there were indeed some “pitchy” moments, the crowd of teens and her fellow peers certainly didn’t seem to mind as they cheered her on from beginning to end.

Rihanna attended the Echo Award 2010 at the Palais am Funkturm in Berlin, Germany today (March 4).

Never one to miss an opportunity to make a fashion statement, the Rude Boy singer donned a green catsuit with oversized shoulder pads and billowy sleeves.

Meanwhile, Rihanna’s toned physique has got her in big trouble as her former personal trainer has sued her for unpaid wages.

Fitness expert Cindy Percival filed a suit in Los Angeles County Superior Court last week. The papers state that the Umbrella hit maker owes her payment for several weeks of intense training.

Percival has alleged that she charged the star $1500-a-day for her services, and is still owed a total of $26 000 for her work with Rihanna last year.

Who knows how the lawsuit will turn out, but the results were clearly on display this evening!

Waging on with her worldwide promotional tour, Rihanna attended an autgraph signing at Alexa in Berlin today (March 3).

Proudly sporting a bowl cut hairstyle and a spiked denim jacket, the Rude Boy singer was on hand to meet and greet her many German fans.

Meanwhile, though she’s riding high on the success of her current album, it appears Rihanna is already working on new music. And she promises that her follow-up disc will be “more energetic.” Producer and songwriter Sean Garrett is one of the people helping to spruce up Rihanna’s edgier sound.

“I got a record on Rihanna’s new album,” he says. “She’s got some surprises. The record I gave her was very, very positive, very big. It’s a f*cking smash.”

He adds: “It’s just so infectious. It’s about getting past any drama and just being happy to be alive. It’s an encouraging record. It feels great, and it’s got great tempo. I made sure that it was bulletproof. It should be a single unless something crazy happens. It’s hot as f*ck. I think it’s a record that’s gonna stay on the radio for a long time.”

Rihanna celebrated her 22nd birthday on Saturday (February 20) with a party put on by Los Angeles Dodger Matt Kemp in Phoenix where the center fielder is at spring training.

At one point, the birthday girl — who reportedly flew out a some of her BFFs for the soiree — could be seen getting a sexy lap dance from a pint-sized stripper from Bridget the Midget.

Rocking a beige mini-dress, Riri was later serenaded with Happy Birthday as Matt rolled out a birthday cake decorated with the her many famous tattoos.

Just last month, sources close to the couple said that Rihanna was very happy with Matt. “Rihanna wants the world to know that she is happy with Matt,” an insider said. “They really like each other.”

Rihanna was up bright and early on Sunday (February 14) to attend a photo call at the Intercontinental Hotel in Sydney, Australia.

Dressed in a sexy tribal-inspired ensemble, the Rude Boy singer spent much of the morning striking various poses during a short promotional tour for her new album Rated R.

Rihanna told The Sunday Telegraph she was happy to be in Australia and hoped to have fun.

As well as conducting key media interviews, the Bajan-born singer will attend an exclusive VIP party at hot Sydney nightspot Ivy tomorrow night before celebrating her 22nd birthday next weekend.

Waging on with her worldwide promotional tour, Rihanna arrived at Sydney international Airport in Australia today (February 11) to spend a few days pimping her new album Rated R.

Always one to make time for her fans, the Hard singer kindly posed with a few adoring wellwishers before being escorted to her awaiting SUV by her burly bodyguard.

Meanwhile, it appears Rihanna has established her diva status in South Korea where she reportedly showed up an hour late to her recent promotional gig.

Writes the Korea Herald: “A PR spokeswoman had to haphazardly rush in front of the photo line stitching up a list of excuses to subside the brewing anger abound the Rose Hall of the posh hotel, saying the songstress had been having problems with her make-up.”

S looked radiant during a press conference to promote her latest album Rated R at the Intercontinental Hotel in Seoul on Thursday (February 11).

In honor of her 22nd birthday (which goes down February 20), the Hard singer was given a gift from the South Korean press as she answered questions about her new album.

Meanwhile, Rihanna says she plans on going into acting at the end of her current world tour.

“After the tour, we’re definitely going to focus on that a little bit more,” she tells Extra. “I’ve never done a tour to this capacity and the production level is really exciting,” she adds. “I can’t wait for the world to see it!”

Welcomed to much fanfare, Rihanna was seen arriving at Gimpo International Airport in Seoul, South Korea on Wednesday morning (February 10).

Casually dressed in denim, army fatigues and oodles of bling, the Hard singer offered fans and wellwishers a quick salutary wave hello before being escorted to an awaiting SUV.

Meanwhile, Rihanna was reportedly almost bashed in the head by a flying champagne bottle as Super Bowl partygoers got out of control in a Miami nightclub.

The messy scene went down when Riri was chilling with a drink at Miami’s Liv club with reality star Kim Kardashian and music producer Timbaland. Within moments, five huge bottles of champagne fell down from the balcony above, one just missing Rihanna as it smashed on the floor. The troublemakers shouted ‘”Touchdown!” as each bottle shattered on the floor.

In an act of revenge, a person from Rihanna’s crew retaliated by throwing a bottle of their own –which only prompted an even bigger bottle to be hurled from above.

Finally, security poured in, blasting: “Everybody get the f*ck out! Super Bowl is ruined.”

A frightened and screaming Rihanna was ushered away.
