Rihanna "Diamonds" Music Video & Makeup Look

We're beautiful like diamonds in the sky....

Rihanna has finally released her video for her amazingly awesome song Diamonds!!!

I had patiently waited for this video for weeks, and now it's HERE! \o/

In this video, Rihanna SLAYED.

The video plays out like a mysterious story. You'll see a bit of chaos during the video, but even through the chaos, the lovely Ri-Ri is at peace :)

Diamonds music video also highlights the different elements like earth, water, wind, and fire in each different scene. Don't know why. It just does. *shrugs*

Sidenote: Did yall see that arm of the hand she was grabbing throughout the video?!? Did that arm remind you of anyone in particular *cough* Chris Brown *cough* or was it just me?

And, of course, her lovely eye makeup in the video just takes the cake!

You can see the Diamonds video below:

I loved her makeup in the scenes with the horses, so I recreated the makeup look and made it my own :)

Makeup Look: Rihanna VMA/Video Music Awards 2012

The Barbadian beauty strikes again!

Pop princess Rihanna was looking like a classic Hollywood beauty at the Video Music Awards this year! 

Her lovely self also won VIDEO OF THE YEAR! *fist pumps*

Yes, that's why I'm crowned queen, and I ain't lookin' for the prom king!

This makeup look was inspired by the look Nicki Minaj wore in 2 Chainz music video for the song "I Luv Dem Strippers". Yes, I know, the title of the song can be quite off-putting....

but I love my rachet music, and this song fits the bill! Don't judge me... ( .__.)

No...I'm not cross-eyed. I'm just not photogenic. At all.
