Rihanna: Giorgio Baldi Babe

Rihanna wears a navy sweaterdress as she leaves Giorgio Baldi restaurant on Saturday (March 19) in Palisades, Calif.

The 23-year-old singer visited the restaurant for dinner earlier in the week – it’s one of Ri‘s favorite spots to eat!

Ri graces the cover of Vogue‘s April 2011 issue, and in her profile, Battleship director Peter Berg dished that he wanted to cast her in his film after seeing her team up with Andy Samberg in SNL‘s “Shy Ronnie”!

“I thought, Wow, this girl is just an inherent performer,” Peter told Vogue. “She has a very strong presence – people are going to be surprised. Let’s put it this way: She kicks a–.”

FYI: Ri is carrying a Prada natural city calf double top handle tote bag.
