Last night in NYC, L.A. Reid hosted the annual Island Def Jam’s Spring Collection. This event is held in order to showcase new Def Jam artists and celebrate the achievements of current ones. The party was held at the Stephen Weiss Studio here in New York City. It appears that Rihanna was the star of the night, as she was recently certified 12-times platinum! (And this was the girl people thought was going to be a one-hit wonder.) The room seemed like it was filled with pure excitement and joy, and Rihanna looked amazing as usual. The hair choice is a little different though…we guess it was her version of a “mushroom cut”. You can check out more pics and the Def Jam new signees after the jump..

Damn Rihanna hit the tanning salon heavy. Is it 12 million platinum on all albums combined? Or just the last one?
