Rihanna debuted a new hair do at the 2008 NRJ Music Awards which was held at the Palais des Festivals on Saturday in Cannes, France. It’s super short especially if you’re looking at it from the back. It’s super sexy though and she was looking mighty stylish. I can’t wait to see what she’ll look like at the forthcoming Grammy Awards which will take place on February 10. She will be performing at the show along with Beyonce, the Foo Fighters, Carrie Underwood and Mary J. Blige. And you fans better watch out because it’s being reported that Beyonce and Mary J are being rumoured to be performing a duet.
