This is probably coming a tad late, but all you need to do is set the selectioncolor to the color you want before appending the text to the richtextbox, then reverting back to the original color after that, e.g

With RichTextBox1
  .SelectionColor = Color.Yellow
  .AppendText("Processing: ")
  .SelectionColor = Color.LimeGreen
  .AppendText("el senor de los anillakos.avi" & vbCr)
End With
