Rihanna Shakes It Up For Her 23rd Birthday

Rihanna toasted the night away with Barbadian inspired drink and decor for her 23rd birthday over the weekend in L.A.  We've got pics from inside the bash...and her celeb friends like Jay-Z and Beyonce who came out to help the Only Girl party it up...

Rihanna danced it up in this interesting dress that makes you feel like you're at Carnival at her birthday bash.  She and her bestie Melissa and party goers played the Wii and ate Sprinkles cupcakes covered with her hometown Barbados' flag:

And a yummy candy station for the guests to chow down on.

Snoop, Christina Milian, Cee Lo, MJB, and even Ryan Phillipe (who she's rumored to be getting it in with these day) were all there as well.

And even The Carters were there to kick it.  This pic is some kind of priceless...
