Rihanna Takes on a Classic: "Vogue"
Sorry for the grainy quality, guys, but this video needs to be seen! It's Rihanna performing Madonna's classic "Vogue" at CBS's Fashion Rocks. The feathers! The original moves! The voice! I daren't say it's better than the original, but it's a very close second. The music has been updated to sound modern and Rihanna-esque. I could've sworn I heard some snippets of "Don't Stop the Music" in there!
It was a bold choice for the young starlet. She gave the song new life, bringing the gay street moves back to the forefront, while at the same time reinforcing her risk-taking image (first a dominatrix at the VMAs, now a rippin' cover of a classic). I'm diggin' it, Ri. What's next in your fashion/music arsenal?
