Is Rihanna redoing 'The Bodyguard'? Shades of Whitney Houston!


Rihanna made a quick trip to N.Y. this past weekend for project meetings, one of which was a remake of “The Bodyguard.”

Rihanna would do Whitney Houston’s role in the update.
“GI Joe” hottie Channing Tatum’s name has been mentioned as the bodyguard

We can almost hear Rihanna's version of "I Will Always Love Chris Brown!"

But that's not all. Rihanna is reportedly also considering a “Charlie's Angels” sequel, as well as possibly starring alongside Justin Timberlake, with whom she released her hit single “Rehab.” No confirmation on any of this, folks.

Hey, gots to get this career back on track, right, RiRi?

Her new album will be released by late 2009. Two new tracks have been cut -- “We Own the Night” and “Pretty Girl Blues.”

But don't look for Ne-Yo's credits on the new album.

“Ne-yo’s been talking about Ri and Chris, which has really hurt her feelings," says the Daily News source. "She thought they were cool with each other.”

Ne-Yo spoke to MTV about the alleged assault: “I spoke to Rihanna. She says she’s fine. She didn’t go into detail about what happened. ... I understand it’s a painful situation; I didn’t push.”

Rihanna also spent time with Jay-Z and his wife, Beyonce, at the Spotted Pig.

The following night, she dined in the West Village at Da Silvano. She wore sunglasses inside the restaurant for the late dinner with five friends and a security guard.
