We know that ELLEis one of the hottest fashion magazines out there, but they certainly know how to pull off a "Women In Music" issue -- which is exactly what they're doing for the month of May!
RIHANNA is currently ruling the radio, whether on her own single or a collaboration with another top-selling artist, but music isn't the only thing on the mind of the 24-year-old Barbadian beauty.
Next month you can catch her motion picture debut as Raikes in the Peter Berg-directed "Battleship"; the action flick based off the popular Hasbro board game.
For Rihanna's cover -- photographed by Tom Munro, Fashion Editor Joe Zee styled the newly blonde popstar in a vibrant yellow ensemble from the Spring 2012 collection by Versace.
