  • Rihanna's Look-Alike Is Making a Career Out of the Striking Resemblance: Andele Lara Hopes to Meet Singer [WATCH]

    One woman who was constantly being mistaken for pop star Rihanna has decided to make a career of it. Andele Lara has benefited greatly due to the striking resemblance to the "Stay" singer: She has gotten into clubs for free, had drinks paid for and even scored some apparel contracts."The moment I step out anywhere, everyone starts staring and whispering before I get bombarded by strangers asking to take their photo with me," she told "The Daily Mail." "This happens every day — it doesn't matter what I do. I can't go 24 hours without hearing Rihanna's name."Ey yoll, meet Andele Lara... Rihanna's look alike. pic.twitter.com/UIW9BoxXcC — ♥NELLY♥ (@PlusSizeNelly) November 19, 2014She told the "Maol" the comparisons started when Andele was 15 in 2007. Rihanna had achieved mid-level fame by then with her first two albums, 2005's "Music of the Sun" and 2006's "A Girl Like Me." Once the singer dropped "Good Girl Gone Bad" and "Umbrella" blew up, people really began to notice the similarities."When 'Umbrella' came out, a lot more people began commenting that I looked like Rihanna," she told the "Mail." "But after RiRi released her album "Loud" in 2010, the attention I started to receive for looking like her was undeniable. People began approaching me in the street asking if I was her and I would see photos of myself going viral on social media."Lara has yet to meet Rih, but she hopes to one day take a selfie with the celebrity, she told the "Mail."

  • Kanye West May Appear on James Blake's Next Release; English Artist Talks New Album

The album, which has yet to be titled, could arrive as early as April, the singer told the "Miami New Times.""I have a lot of respect for [Kanye], for what he has been releasing for years," Blake said. "We haven't done a great deal of work in the same room yet, but we've done a few things, kind of helped each other with our own music. In terms of the actual collaboration for this record, it looks like we should be able to get something done. I know that there's a specific song I would like him to be on, and if he can do that by the time my record comes out, that would be fantastic."The release is coming along, with Blake saying he is more than halfway done with it.

  • Brad Pitt to Play Bruce Springsteen in Biopic? Rumors Surface About Possible 'Boss' Flick

    Let the rumors begin. A-list actor Brad Pitt is reportedly trying to play Bruce Springsteen in a biopic. Early reports claim that Pitt is raising funds to make a movie tentatively titled "The Boss." Springsteen has been approached many times before, but a source told the "The National Enquirer" that Pitt's involvement has peaked the rock star's interest.Now, you have to take anything from "TNE" with caution, but it's certainly a discussion worth having. A comprehensive biography titled "Bruce" came out in 2012, and it would provide decent source material for a movie. The aging rocker is still as active as ever in the music scene, which would potentially hinder a film production, though. And it's great that Pitt may want to do this, but there are other actors to consider for the part of the polarizing frontman."Bruce is 65 now and he feels it's time, and this is Brad Pitt, so he is thinking it over," the source said. "Bruce and Brad share a desire to unite the world and serve the underrepresented and help the working people around the globe."

  • Foo Fighters Selling Ugly Holiday Sweaters Featuring an Evil Gingerbread and Emperor-Inspired Font

    Ugly holiday sweater parties have become a holiday tradition in recent years, and retailers have been cashing in on the trend by offering dated designs on new clothes. The Foo Fighters are getting in on the action now, too, with their own tacky Christmas gear. Rather than cheerful imagery, Dave Grohl and Co. opted for a scary gingerbread man and font that pays tribute to the Norwegian black metal band Emperor.As Blabbermouth points out, the sweaters are available for $30 on the band's Web store. They come in — you guessed it — green and red.In the most recent episode of the band's HBO series and companion piece to their new album, "Sonic Highways," Grohl and the boys visited New Orleans. They recorded at the historic Preservation Hall, which is rich in history, none of which Grohl knew anything about, admitting, "Before I turned on the camera with Ben Jaffe from Preservation Hall [Jazz Band], I said, 'I don't know s--t about jazz and I don't know shit about New Orleans. We're rolling.'"
