Wyclef Jean treated in hospital and recovering from stress related sysptoms.

Wyclef Jean is recovering in hospital after 'an exhausting eight months' since the Haitian earthquake, his spokesman said.

One week after ending his campaign to become leader of Haiti, Wyclef Jean has been taken to hospital in New Jersey to be treated for "stress and fatigue". The singer-turned-presidential-hopeful-turned-singer has reportedly been suffering from severe headaches for weeks, and now plans to "take it easy" and regain his health.
News of Jean's hospitalisation was issued by Jean's political site, AFACeAFACe, yesterday. The singer later re-tweeted their announcement. Speaking to MTV News, spokesman Marian Salzman said the singer was recovering from "an extremely gruelling three months – truly an exhausting eight months, since the earthquake when he recommitted himself to our homeland".
"[Wyclef] is currently suffering the effects of lack of sleep and stress, global travel, even the endless public eye," she said, "and has asked that his fans and supporters bear with him for the next several days as he regains his physical health and stamina. Then he will be back out in front of the crusade to rebuild Haiti and his pledge to make it even better for business." FULL STORY

Sean Combs, aka Diddy, and fellow R&B artist Ne-Yo hanging out at the Mayfair in NYC

Sean Combs, aka Diddy, and fellow R&B artist Ne-Yo leave C restaurant in Mayfair.

The mogul dined at trendy C restaurant with rapper pal NE-YO, who had popped round my way to perform a Bizarre session earlier in the day.

He was still wearing the new hat he bought for his trip to The Sun HQ.

He said: "The fedora doesn't really work when it's cold so I thought I'd seasonalise my hat choice."

But the Closer singer added he doesn't mind the chilly climes in the capital: "I like the weather.

"I couldn't wait to come to London. I just love the night life and the people."

Rihanna Films a new Music Video in NY

Rihanna shoots a video on the streets of New York.

Rihanna fans got a peek at two of the pop diva's upcoming videos.  

The singer posted a pic from the set of the clip for "Only Girl" to her Twitter last night. The shot featured Rihanna waving a shawl in the air as giant bright balloons bounced around her in a field.

She put up the pic with a caption, reading, "What up #RihannaNavy I've been busy being the "Only Girl In the World" wanna see more?!?!"

Cameras also caught Rihanna was also caught shooting the video for "What's My Name?" in New York this weekend.

We saw the new look for the first time at the MTV Video Music Awards earlier this month, and it divided fans. Some of you loved it, and others memorably compared it to the Mozilla Firefox logo. Maybe she is just keeping it around for her music video, but we ave a feeling this is the look Rihanna is going to be wearing for a while.
