Rihanna Moving To NYC?

Rihanna is chilling in the city this summer.

The 21-year-old pop star is close to signing an $18,000-a-month lease for a SoHo apartment on Greene Street. The unit was originally listed at $22,000 a month. The 2,300-square-foot residence has three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a sitting room. It has a 500-square-foot terrace, where the “Umbrella” singer plans to erect a small tent to shade herself from prying eyes.

It’s a far cry from the Stamford, Conn., manse she moved into at age 16, when she left home in Barbados to live with record producer Evan Rogers and his wife. But it might be the perfect spot for Rihanna to practice her lines as she prepares for her first film role. She’s currently taking acting classes and will start filming “Personal Protection” later this year.

Speaking about the movie, “Rihanna will start filming ‘Personal Protection’ later this year,” says a insider. “She’s not ready, actingwise, yet, so she’s meeting with a coach.”
