Several blogs have posted pics of Rihanna in London sporting a ring, and of course most surmised that it was an engagement ring. Volia:
Well here she is and wooosh. No ring. Once again Chrianna are having fun people, having fun with the media. Or not. One blog looking for something to write in the absence of a ring...OOoh look ya'll she s hiding a cold sore. Sorry no cold sore pic here...

BTW the awards season has kicked off and Rihanna failed to win in any of the categories she was nominated for in the People Choice Awards. Favorite Pop Song honor went to Katy Perry for `I Kissed A Girl,` while Alicia Keys won Favorite R&B Song (she lost to Rihanna last year) and Carrie Underwood won best female singer of 2008.
I just took the holiday as another day to just give thanks for all my blessings. I wish the best for you all in 2009, especially the youth of the region. Right now there is a serious lack of respect in society for any kind of rules, regulation or authority. Too many young people are out there committing senseless acts with no regard for the sanctity of life. Just yesterday a childhood friend of mine was stabbed in the chest because he confronted someone who shot him twice with a pellet gun. So now you can't even tell somebody they wronged you? This boy's life could have been gone in an instant had they hit him in the left and not the right side. And over what???? Bullshit. (Taking a breath). Yeah I'm pretty disgusted about that. But I still have hope.
I really would like to implore to artists to be more positive with your lyrics. Yes I believe in freedom of expression, I can listen to a "gangsta" type song and not necessarily want to go out there and emulate the artist, but young kids, especially boys really buy into that image and lifestlye. Parents too need to play their part. I go out and see high school kids in fetes where I feel grown folks should be. My first night in a club was when I was in college. I dunno, kids just growing up too fast these days. And its funny, cause I'm sure the same was said about my generation when we were kids. Life is a cycle, you know. Wow, O.K I was talking about Christmas right? Well lets just carry the spirit with us to 2009 and "Bring Back The Love!"

Well, parang season is here again and Angostura is bringing this song back to life with a little twist. They are doing a promotional spot using the song this time replacing Lord Kitchener with his son, Kernel Roberts. Here is a still shot from the ad showing typical Christmas merriment in a Trinidadian household. Peep Machel in the background making a cameo.
