Rihanna prompts health scare fears after IV drip photo
Rihanna has sparked fears for her health after showing fans a photograph of an IV drip attached to her arm. The pop star posted the picture on her Twitter.com page on Tuesday night, just days after telling fans she was feeling unwell following her performance on “Saturday Night Live.” The IV snap was uploaded with no comment or caption after one of her followers asked where she was as she had been “quiet all day.” The image is believed to have been taken recently as it clearly shows the same elaborate fingernail design she sported at New York’s Met Gala on Monday night. However, the singer was well enough to board a plane a few hours later, tweeting, “My ride home NY days LA nights.”

Rihanna Would Give Her 'Entire Life' To Play Whitney Houston
Because of the larger-than-life pop-star status Whitney Houston left behind with her untimely death in February, it comes as no surprise that Hollywood would be interested in making a biopic to honor her legacy.
The competition for the role is sure to be fierce. Some ladies who have been mentioned as potential candidates to play Houston at various stages in her life include: "Dreamgirls" actress/singer Jennifer Hudson, who performed the heartfelt "I Will Always Love You" tribute at the 2012 Grammys, Vivica A. Fox, Meagan Good and "American Idol" alum and Houston's "Sparkle" co-star Jordin Sparks.
"My first song that I remember falling in love with was a Whitney Houston song: 'I Will Always Love You,' " Rihanna said. "It was really inspiring, and it made me develop a passion for music, so really, she's partly responsible for me being here in this industry.
"That would be something that I would have to give my entire life to do, because I would really want to pull it off," the "Talk That Talk" singer continued. "That's a huge, huge role, and whoever does it has to do a good job."
We'll all get to see RiRi's acting chops when "Battleship" opens in theaters next month. Director Peter Berg told MTV News that Rihanna brings "a real intensity" to her role, which could offer a glimpse of what she might do if given the opportunity to portray Houston in the biopic, if it is green-lit.
