Rihanna news: Rihanna signs up for TV talent hunt to find a fashion designer hosted by Nicola Roberts
The as-yet-untitled show will be hosted by Girls Aloud singer Nicola Roberts.
And the winner will get to create an outfit for Bajan beauty Rihanna to wear for her performance at the Wireless festival in London's Hyde Park in July.
The chart-topping star will executive produce and appear in the ten-part series. And she hand-picked fashion addict Nicola to host the show.
Nicola is following in the footsteps of Girls Aloud bandmates Cheryl Cole, Sarah Harding and Kimberley Walsh by getting into telly.
The show, which airs on Sky Living in the summer, will see Rihanna and Nicola — who has created her own make-up range — search the UK for undiscovered designer talent.
Host ... Nicola Roberts
Insiders said Rihanna, who has sold more than 20million albums, would be "heavily responsible" for casting and would be involved in the show's editing and post-production.
Rihanna said: "I've always had a great love of fashion. It's a constant source of inspiration and is a big reason why I've grown into the artist I am today.
"I am excited to follow the journey of our aspiring contestants and see how their individuality influences their efforts."
Nicola added: "I am so excited to be working with Rihanna on finding a new up-and-coming designer.
"I was so flattered when she asked me to work with her on this show. I'm so excited for us to get started."
Jane Johnson, director of Sky Living, said: "I am thrilled we are working with Rihanna on her first TV project.
"She is a great talent with a huge international following and a brilliant and individual fashion sense."
