'Umbrella' singer Rihanna is said to be spending £14,000 a week on one of Hollywood's leading hair stylists.

The 23-year-old singer pays top celebrity stylist Ursula Stephen £2,000 a day, to make sure she looks her best.

"Rihanna likes to pioneer new styles but it's costing her a fortune. She makes several public appearances a week, and the cost soon stacks up," the Daily Mail quoted one of her staff as saying.

"Ursula is a close confidante and they are together all the time.

"You have to wonder why she insists on keeping such an expensive member of her entourage on the payroll 24/7. Most of these costs are paid for by her management," the staff added.

Rihanna has changed her hairstyle 13 times since it was dyed bright red last November, including a huge red afro that got her the nickname 'Side-Show Bob' after the Simpsons cartoon character.

Expectations on this Vijay starrer are sky-high, and the many reasons for this need not even be explained upon. Fans are eagerly awaiting the audio release date of this film but no official announcement has been made yet, although it has been confirmed that this would be an August release.
 
Meanwhile, the director's brother and actor Jayam Ravi, has expressed to Ilayathalapathy fans that 'Velayudham' will see an audio launch around August 15!
 
"Got this out of the lions mouth, director Raja says Velayudham audio launch will be around August 15, enjoy Thalapathy fans. The wait will be worth it", says an excited Jayam Ravi who will be shortly traveling to Goa for the shoot on 'Aadhi Bhagavan'.
 
'Velayudham' is Vijay's superhero project where he romances Hansika Motwani. Genelia D' Souza plays a television reporter and the tunes are composed by Vijay Antony.

It is quite known that its not just fans, but stars also worship Rajini. In fact, that's the magic of the Superstar, who is ruling the roost in Kollywood for more than three decades. And Ajith, always known for his admiration towards Rajini, has hailed the Superstar as 'God'.
 
"No on has seen God in reality. However, after my mother and father, Rajini sir is God whom I had met in person. My only wish is that he should always have a smile on his face", said the 'Thala', in his interview to a Tamil weekly.
 
Recently, Ajith has made his parents to stay with him. "We are a joint family now. Because my daughter Anoushka, who is in LKG now, should get the affection of her grandparents. Shalini's father and mother too are visiting us once in a week".
 
Expressing gratitude to wife Shalini for all the love and affection she has been showering on him, Ajith says, "She is the only reason behind our successful married life for the past 11 years. I should thank her always".
