Rihanna

IDIOT QUOTE OF THE DAY: RIHANNA

” Definitely the high risk guys. I don’t like cream puff, corny guys. Usually they are the nice guys, the ones that won’t hurt you. They’ll pull out the chair for you and the whole nine yards. Everything is perfect and boring. I like the risk, I like the edge. That’s the thrill for me.” (Via Rhymes With Snitch) So what are you saying Rihanna? Are you telling us that you enjoyed it when your former boyfriend Chris Brown gave you two licks and one box []

PURCHASE RIHANNA’S NEW ALBUM RATED R FOR $0.99

  Island Def Jam and the dark priestess must be REALLY desperate! It looks like the styling and profiling around the world, the 20/20 interview, and the new dark ‘risque’ image have all FLOPPED big time.  The public simply isn’t interested. Insiders say that Rated R is set to shift only 160k units first week sales.  When you consider the amount of money spent on the album’s promotion/marketing etc – that’s DIRE! NINETY-NINE CENTS!!!! Oh the shame! Click here for more information

RIHANNA GIG REVIEW – THE O2 BRIXTON ACADEMY (LONDON)

Last night (November 16th) I attended Rihanna’s highly anticipated show at London’s O2 Brixton Academy in association with Nokia. The event was billed as being a private gig (invite only) that was due to be hosted at a private location. I initially thought that it would be taking place in a sophisticated dark intimate setting in some trendy night club. But I almost choked on my D&G Grape Soda when I heard the words “Brixton Academy”.    “Private” and “invite only” were both []

RIHANNA COMPETITION: AND THE WINNERS ARE…..

I received a huge amount of replies minutes after posting news of this competition. I had no idea Rih Rih aka the dark priestess was so popular! Anyway today I picked 2 winners using the old skool childrens TV style/method of picking competition winners (put entrants info in a bag, shuffled and then pulled out winners names).   The two lucky individuals (plus one) that will be going to see Rihanna perform tracks from her forthcoming album Rated R (invite only/secret location) on Monday November 16th in London are: *drum roll* Bizu Yaregal []

RIHANNA – SINGLE COVER FOR ‘WAIT YOUR TURN’

Rihanna’s image has changed drastically in short period of time. The singer entered the murky world of music when she was 16 years old and now at the ripe old age of 21 the industry has succeeded in convincing her to go down this road…… Via PunchBowl Blog Well it was bound to happen at some point!

RIHANNA FINALLY SPEAKS – 20/20 FULL INTERVIEW

Rihanna finally sits down and talks about that fateful night in February of this year, when her former boyfriend Chris Brown boxed and kicked her in a rented Lambo. To be honest Rihanna I am past caring. Let’s move on now. Oh and best of luck with the new album which conveniently drops soon….. As for you Chris…. I’m afraid it’s a wrap son! Everything had been planned down to the last detail (hair, outfit, make-up, facial expressions etc) and Rihanna had been coached for weeks. Bravo Rih Rih! But it was []

NEW MUSIC/VIDEO: RIHANNA – ‘WAIT YOUR TURN’

Why is Rihanna singing like that????  Just stop woman! She sounds like an American struggling to speak in a West Indian accent, which is odd considering she was born and raised in Barbados.  She’s obviously been hanging around Jay-Z, Beyonce, Kanye and crew for far to long. Anyway I actually like the chorus but the rest of the track gets the thumbs down from me. And as for the new look….what is that all about Rihanna???   Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?

NEW MUSIC: RIHANNA – ‘RUSSIAN ROULETTE’

Via Pinboard Blog Yes Rihanna has taken a break away from traipsing up and down the streets of New York City like it’s a catwalk, looking like mutton dressed as lamb (on the odd occasion) to release her “highly anticipated” new single Russian Roulette. In my opinion it sounds like a mid 1980s Pop ballad. Mad News Verdict: Dry! Russian Roulette is nothing to write home about. Click here to listen. Your thoughts please. Hit or Miss?
