RIHANNA SPARKLES AT MUSIC AWARDS. Rihanna, in a dramatic Zac Posen gown, performed a classical rendition of her smash hit Umbrella with string accompaniment and a Hate That I Love You duet with Ne-Yo at the 2007 American Music Awards on Sunday. Rihanna was named the favourite female Soul/R & B star, beating out BeyoncŽ and Fantasia. For the first time in show history, winners were chosen by public votes cast online.
