SOCIAL COMBUSTION

RIHANNA: THE FORCED MEDIA WHORE


POSTED BY LACKLUSTRE


Does anyone else find it funny that rihanna finally turns to the media about the chris brown debocal not three weeks before her brand new album drops? Hmm… so let’s think here. Rihanna stays completely silent about the whole thing… hides out of the limelight… decides to record and album… then POOF becomes a media whore spitfire? Talk about a strategy! That girl has a smart (but pathetic) team behind her. They are capitalizing on something that happened a year ago to make her the centre of attention right before her new album hits the streets? I think that what happened was that they saw that her single was not being overly well received and knew that they needed to beef up her profile in order to get (ANY) hype around “Rated R”’s release on November 23rd. This will be riri’s first studio album since 2007’s “Good Girl Gone Bad”. Hmmm, it bothers me that they are really putting pressure on her to talk about her experience with C-brown the douchebag in order to sell albums. She has made it very, very clear that she wants nothing to do with the media on this matter… yet here she is. I think it is very unfortunate. For her sake, I hope it works. Otherwise, reliving this over, and over, and over again would all be for nothing. (Get Rihanna’s album, “Rated R” on November 23rd.)
