Rihanna's known for changing her hair; so far this year she's had long red locks, a shorter red cut, brunette curls and her newest blond do that she has in her "You Da One" music video.

TWIST chats with Diggy Simmons!

DSC00515.jpg

Hey Readers,

TWIST sat down with 16-year-old singer/rapper Diggy Simmons! We chatted with the youngest son of famous DJ Rev. Run, about who he'd like to do a duet with, his ideal girl, and even his celebrity crush! Check out our exclusive interview below!

Plus, pick up our October/November double issue for all the stars' secrets, on stands now!

xoxo,
TWIST

TWIST: Can you tell us a little bit about how you got started?
Diggy: I just started writing and penning down things that I felt. That's really where it came from... I was just falling in love with the artistry and my craft. I didn't really want it to be a career. I didn't really have intentions of that at first.

TWIST: What types of things inspire you to write your music?
Diggy: Anything... girls, past experiences with people... that's just kind of the theme of my album. And it will be the theme throughout my whole life: experiences and real things that I go through.

TWIST: If you could do a duet with anyone, who would it be?
Diggy: A song with Kanye [West] would be dope.

TWIST: What is your favorite song of yours?
Diggy: It would probably be "Thinkin Bout U". It's on my mixed tape Airborne. I just love it because I really went into a deep place inside of me... it just feels good and it's relatable.

TWIST: What would your ideal girl be?
Diggy: Definitely someone that's not just beautiful on the outside but someone that is on the inside too. Someone that I'm compatible with and I can be real with and talk to just about anything with. So somebody that I can just be close to on not only a relationship level but as a best friend.
I believe in true beauty on a girl so I don't want her to feel like she'd have to wear makeup all the time. I'd always want her to feel comfortable around me.

TWIST: Do you have a celebrity crush right now?
Diggy: It would be Rihanna or Eva Mendes... I love Eva Mendes.

TWIST: What can we expect from you in the future?
Diggy: Definitely my debut album. [I also have] my sneaker line-- it's called "Chivalrous Culture".

Who Was The Best Dressed At The Billboard Music Awards?

Hey girls,

I know, I know - the Justin-Selena kiss was quite distracting last night at the Billboard Music Awards, but you know I'm still all about the outfits! The Billboard Music Awards is a chance for celebs to have fun with fashion instead of playing it safe. Check out what everyone wore and speak up in the comment section to vote for your fave!

One of the night's big winners, Miss Taylor Swift wore a long, gold sparkly gown. This country gal just can't get enough of sequin dresses! Selena wore a floor-length gown too, but the daring slit and cut-out sides make it look anything but prim.

Ke$ha's always a walking party on the red carpet and last night was no exception. From the back, it looked like she was wearing a long, gray gown but when she turned around - surprise! Not to be upstaged, Nicki Minaj wore a light blue jumpsuit with glitter on the sides. She wore her pink hair down in waves, Little Mermaid style.

Fergie's short black dress was so edgy! The studs and chocker take her look to the limit. Props to her for walking in those platform heels. Rihanna's white pantsuit was one of the safer outfits of the night. It must have been super tricky to keep that outfit clean!

Who Was The Best Dressed At The Grammy's?

Hey girls,

Last night was a fashion breath of fresh air! For once, the stars had fun with their red carpet looks instead of playing it safe. Obviously you came to the right place to see all the looks from last night. Speak up in the comment section on who won best dressed!

Katy Perry's look definitely reflected her latest single - she was a walking fairy tale! Miley's glittery dress is so rock and roll, and Selena went for understated elegance in a long, sparkly pale dress.

Rihanna's gown may have been floor-length, but it was really revealing! Ariana Grande was more covered up than she was, even though her white style was much shorter. Niki Minaj is giving Willow and Lady Gaga a run for their money when it comes to wacky red carpet fashion. Wild!

Paramore frontwoman Hayley Williams rocked a black and pink ensemble and showed off her new blunt bangs! Do you like them? Hillary Scott of Lady Antebellum - the night's big winner - gave her look a country touch by adding a big, oversized belt buckle. Miss Willow Smith donned a cape and platform sneaks. Too crazy, or not crazy enough?
grammys3.jpg

Glee's Lea Michele's dress had a romantic touch a lace and a super high slit, showing off her athletic legs. Jersey Shore star Snooki put her fuzzy slippers away for one night and got all dolled up in silver sequin. What a change! Kim Kardashian followed her golden rule last night: show some skin, but not too much - and always sparkle.
