London, Apr 25: Chris Brown's girlfriend Karrueche Tran, who had a not-so-secret but incredibly confusing spat online with Rihanna last month, has ended it once and for all by tweeting a snap of the couple along with the caption "Head over heels".
The romantic picture was taken during their trip to Australia this week, with Karrueche accompanying her man on his promotional trip around the world.
The pair, who live together, have also been travelling through the Middle East.
Karrueche's twitpic is likely to rile Rihanna, who is believed to have sent. »

Kimbra's crooning vocals and eclectic rhythms bridge the gap between funk and Bjork, and spill from speakers like heated, bubbling honey. Quickly mellifluous with quick pops of sound. Her music is not only pleasant to the ear, but it's just all around fun to listen to. The Kiwi's album Vows debuted last September and she recently collaborated with Gotye on his track "Somebody That I Used to Know" off his album Making Mirrors that came out on January 31st. Her music is well worth seeking out, and to help get you hooked, we've included the music video for her hit "Settle Down", "Cameo Lover", as well as a radio recording session of Kimbra's mash-up of Grizzly Bear's "Two Weeks" and Tears for Fears' "Head Over Heels", and finally the music video for her collaboration with Gotye "Somebody That I Used to Know".

Wow, where to begin with Catherine? Originally released in Japan in February 2011 and the Us in July of the same year, I originally played the demo of the game that was made available in the Us Playstation Store, a demo I fell in love with (pardon the pun) straight away.
