Rihanna

      *British-based Web site NME.com is reporting that Rihanna will be releasing her own line of umbrellas in the wake of her monster hit single, “Umbrella,” which just became the longest-running U.K. number one single in a decade.

      The Barbados-born artist has teamed with British clothing company Totes to put out a collection of five different umbrellas in the U.K. The series will be available in different colors.

      “Umbrella,” meanawhile, has lodged its tenth week at No. 1 on the British charts, and there’s a joke going around Britain that the track is the cause of this summer’s heavy rains and flooding in the area. 
     
      The song spent seven weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart in the U.S.
