first ! yah neyo do whats righttttt

damn, i was.

HA!

congrat eddie…….neyo what you have to do..
i didn’t go becasue neyo was dropped…seem as though i didnt miss much

SOOO I WONDER IF SHE IS KEEPING EX-HUBBYS LAST NAME? HMMMMM

Can some one tell me when in the hell did neyo become a rapper (as stated above)?!
n-e-ways do the damn thang to all!

I don’t blame Ne-Yo for suing. I’d rather see him not touring with R.Kelly narcassitic self.

I wonder if Rhianna lip-synched her performance b/c for $500,000 she would have to sing “Umbrella” live and in russian. Rhianna better watch out, that billionaire may be looking for a 3rd wife. lol

Tracey & Eddie (sigh) - I wonder if she signed a pre-nup and did it include “you must bare at least 3 or more children for me” clause.

Wow at Rhi, and people say she can’t sing, well obviously everyone don’t feel that way to the tune of $500,000….damn for one performance….get it girl.

Next to Eddie and Tracey….Tracey, what goes around comes around, you are no better a woman than nicole or mel b…why is it that some women seem to think they can do a better job than the other woman, or that they are just better than the other woman? Ever thought none of the women are the problem, maybe it’s the guy? Wait, let me guess, Eddie said they both were crazy and liars and so forth…right, right….he’ll be saying the same shit about you when you tire of his ass and move on….right about the same time the next woman steps in and rolls her eyes at you, thinking SHE can do better…..i swear it’s just a vicious circle, but hey, whatever.

go ne-yo….sue that pedo’s ass!

LMAO@NEYO, MY MAMA LOVES DAT BOY, LOL, I WAS WONDERING WHERE RIHANNA WAS DURING NEW YEARS EVE, AND HEY THATS TRACY AND EDDIE, GOOD LUCK TO THEM!

Neyo should definitely get his money. Rkelly is always jealous when someone outshines him on tour. First with Jay-Z and now with Neyo. SMH I hope Neyo gets his money.

Who cares about Rihanna anymore? She has no talent and I’m sure the performance she gave the Russian involved her being on her knees. She’s the next Mya.

Congrats to Eddie and Tracey, but I’m tired of hearing about them. Eddie needs to be taking care of his baby who he hasn’t even seen yet. SMH

hmm, Im not that big a fan of Neyo, so It doesnt bother me he was kicked off the tour. I think he’s salty. Get your own tour Neyo and You can kick who you want off too..R.Kelly Rocked Columbia, Holla

Ne-Yo, boo you need to sue for more cuz that was very bad on Kelly’s side and plus he can spare a few mil since he’s going to jail soon!

Good luck with that Neyo cause first off, he’d have to prove the crowd liked him better than kellz, and two, i heard there were contractual issues not met by both sides. Whatever, may the liar in this be revealed and the good guy the victor. I refuse to take sides cause no one knows what happened but them two of them.

I hope Ne-yo gets paid. R. Kelly is so pathetic.

I hope that is not a slit i see in Rih’s pants. Sooooo Russian Billionaire huh? I know that lots of celebs do ‘private performamances’ for rich folks for a lotta money but I’m tempted to say something here…. or was… till i read that reggie thread (they are reportedly engaged btw). Some of y’all black men really hate black women huh?

Congrats to Eddie and Traccccccccccciiiiiiiiiiie. They desrve each other (smiles sweetly)

Not sure if I would have married Eddie (Hell no I would not), the alimony from Baby Face had to be serious! Oh and uh, Eddie’s gay. Glad Ne-yo is going after R. Kelly with his can’t share the spotlight *ss! I hope he gets his money!

GET IT NE-YO!! GET YO DAMN DOUGH!!! that’s how we do it….Ne-yo knows he’s that shit and them niggas juss poop stains!!!!!!!!!!

Who cares about Rihanna anymore? She has no talent and I’m sure the performance she gave the Russian involved her being on her knees. She’s the next Mya.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

SMH at that comment made above. If Ri did get on her knees for 500,000 dollars thats better then you getting on yours for $5.

And yuke, Eddie looks gay as hell in this pic….tracie is either blind or willing to look the other way…and how can you respect a man who “for whatever reason” is not seeing his child? I don’t know if it’s true that he hasn’t seen Angel Iris, but if it is, Eddie is pathetic and so is Tracie.

LMAO @17

Ne-Yo will probaly get paid. R. Kelly is paying out of the a$$ right now so maybe his lawyers will put up a good fight for him. Who knows?

Rihanna, work it out girl. She probably didn’t charge that much, it’s probably a number the billionaire threw out there when he requested her. What wouldn’t she do for a half of a mil? LOL!!

Congrats to Eddie and Tracey. Hope it works out for them.

i give eddie 6 months tops…

SMH @ the 2 Rihanna stans. I’m not saying anything that other people haven’t already said. She can’t sing, she can’t sell records, and people say she fucks for tracks so I’m just telling it like people are saying it. I feel sorry for Rihanna stans the truth must hurt huh? Unlike Rihanna I don’t get on my knees for anything by the way. Why didn’t ya’ll pay more than $5 to buy this bitch’s flopped c.d. then maybe people would think she got talent. SMH

Neyo is about to be paid.

Rihanna’s 15 mins are up everybody’s all about Alicia who has REAL talent now. And $500,000 is not that much. I’ve seen bigger stars like Janet and Beyonce get paid triple that for a performance.

Eddie and Tracey make a beautiful couple. But he did do Mel wrong so Tracey better watch out.

Go head then Neyo..I aint mad at cha’.

LOL @6 talking about the russian man may be looking for a 3rd wife..that was a good one!

Good luck with that Ne-Yo, next time be sure to sign your contracts.

I love Neyo so I hope he gets his money.

Rihanna? Next! She’s old news.

Eddie and Tracey are too cute but Eddie does need to handle his business as a man and take care of his child. Has he even seen her yet?

Why isn’t R Kelly in jail yet?

Rihanna is a joke. I wouldn’t pay $5 to see her for 40 minutes, let alone 500K. But, as her boy Jay would say, “I can’t knock the hustle.” Get that money girl, with your no talent self…LOL!

One word for Tracey Edmonds Murphy - BEARD!!! I’ll bet in their minds, Johnny Gill and Eddie Murphy were really exchanging those vows to one another.

Here’s the article about Rihanna. Can’t tell if there dissing her or were pleased.

In the Spotlight

One of the guests invited to hear Rihanna sing was Roman Abramovich, who quietly danced on the spot.

By Anna Malpas
Published: December 28, 2007

This year in a new spirit of austerity and cutbacks, RusAl head Oleg Deripaska treated his colleagues and friends not to a Tanzanian goat apiece, but to the nearest thing for an oligarch: a New Year concert whose star, Rihanna, only charged $500,000. George Michael, who sang for Vladimir Potanin last year for a reported $3.3 million, wouldn’t even get out of a Ritz-Carlton featherbed for that. Still, she’ll learn. As Komsomolskaya Pravda put it, “she’s a young singer, so she charges practically nothing.”

The best coverage of the party last week was in Tvoi Den, which headlined its article “Deripaska Gave Abramovich a Black Woman for $500,000.” There’s a real craft to writing headlines like that, which pack so many offensive implications into so little space. Still, the article wasn’t so bad, even giving Rihanna the privilege of a name at the end of the second paragraph. The Abramovich reference is due to the fact that Roman turned up to the party, with his girlfriend Darya Zhukova. But tabloids differed on whether the designer-stubbled one tapped his toe to “Umbrella” or broke into a full-blooded boogie.

A blurry photograph in Tvoi Den shows Abramovich looking bored, and a reporter wrote that he “observed the young people having fun with his famous half-smile, quietly dancing on the spot.” However, Komsomolskaya Pravda said he “danced away all night to Rihanna’s catchy hits.” Which admittedly would have been difficult, given that her performance only lasted 40 minutes.

Rihanna insisted on the presidential suite at the Ritz-Carlton for her six-hour stay, Tvoi Den wrote. It comes with an “oversized dressing room” and a security room with an “autonomous energy supply system,” the hotel’s web site boasts. But there were no wardrobe malfunctions, debauched afterparties or late-night fallings out of night clubs, so frankly she didn’t provide the paparazzi with value for money.

Sadly, Rihanna’s concert has been the most bling New Year’s party reported in the tabloids, which is painful to write of an event that also included a performance by local pop sensation Tokio. And there seems to be little prospect of celebrity shenanigans in the city over New Year’s, given that all the beautiful people are heading for warmer or snowier climes.

In Star Hit magazine, television host and celebrity editor Andrei Malakhov drew a handy map of the Russian elite’s vacation destinations. And if he’s right, it looks as if Courchevel is so January 2007. I don’t know whether the arrest of billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov earlier this year had an effect on bookings, but Malakhov writes that the French ski resort will be a forlorn ghost town this holiday. Its only visitors will be former Miss World Oksana Fyodorova and teenage designer Kira Plastinina, who will probably sulk in her young executive suite.

Instead, the people who matter will be sipping glЯhwein over the border in Switzerland’s St. Moritz. Among them are Abramovich, Zhukova, restaurateur Arkady Novikov, Dima Bilan’s producer Yana Rudkovskaya and film director Fyodor Bondarchuk. And Swiss hoteliers are probably adding zeroes to the price of fondue as we speak.

Another destination likely to be offering overpriced Sovietskoye Shampanskoye this New Year’s is Miami, where many Russian pop stars have second or third homes. We’re talking blond crooner Nikolai Baskov, permed superstar Valery Leontyev and the local version of Posh and Becks, popster Natasha Korolyova and her stripper husband Tarzan.

But one beach destination stands out as the ultimate no-no. Ashen-faced vacationers will be canceling their bookings and sticking to the safety of Khimki as they read that Jamaica is due to be invaded by rapper Timati — who, no doubt, will be affecting the local patois within hours of landing. And troubles never come alone. He will be accompanied by celebrity It Girl Ksenia Sobchak.

Damn LMAO @ CeeCee. That’s mean but I kinda agree with you. LOL

Neyo should get whats owed to him.

I also agree with whoever said Rihanna is a joke. Enough said.

Good luck to Eddie and Tracey. Hope he treats her better than he treated Mel B.

seems like ri-ri is turning into a bit of a DIVA…when she was in london my friend saw her in selfridges and said hi, apparently rihanna just looked at her funny and walked off without saying hi back…..OUCH

When Ne-Yo sues R. Kelly, will this make R. Kelly go to jail. They lock you up for any and everything nowadays, except for rape and murder.

Congratulations to Tracy and Eddie……..I guess.

Oh and to you as well Rihanna….

also i agree with 23, rihanna has reached her peak…i dont think she has much more to show the world, she’s just got a great stylist and marketing team behind her…she’s good now, but i dont know if she’ll sustain it….someone like ciara has still so much potential to give…and i agree alicia keys is great too…

@ # 22..RIHANNA’S CD HAS SOLD OVER A MILLION PLUS COPIES,SO HOW DA FUCK IS DAT A FLOP..IM SURE U ARE ONE OF THOSE GHETTO FOLKS WHO DONT KNOW UR FACTS..UR JUS GOIN BY WHAT EVERYONE SAYS..LOL..LAME!!

AND @ # 23. $500,000 IS ALOT OF MONEY FOR 40 MINS..AND WHY ARE U COMPARING HOW MUCH SHE MADE TO JANET & BEYONCE..SHE JUS CAME OUT 2 1/2 YEARS AGO..THEY HAVE BEEN OUT SINCE SHE WAS A LIL GIRL. SO OF COURSE THEY WILL MAKE MORE THAN HER..YA’LL JUS TRYNNA FIND REASONS TO HATE..

Jumpoffs- The award goes to them! They had the best YEAR ever!

Rihanna go suck a D*CK!!!!!

Ne-Yo is going to get his money and probably more than he is asking for.

Congrats to Tracey and Eddie I guess.

Rihanna is doing it big, I ain’t mad at her.

I’m sure Rihanna did more than a musical performance in that hotel room for $500,000…let’s be realistic.

Good for Ne-Yo and congrats to Eddie and Tracey.

Rihanna better watch out. She’s talentless and yet keeps making demands. She had nothing to do for New Year’s because Jay had everyone performing except for her and her management found somewhere for her to perform. I’m sure the Russian guy said after she performed that “it’s only peanuts the $500K, but I could’ve spent it on a stripper.” Real singers collect $1 mil - even J.Lo got a mil.

I can’t wait for her time to be up - people sweating her is going to her head. She can’t sing, dance, sell albums or concert tix.

Also, Rihanna’s c.d. has not sold a million in the U.S. as of yet. Her sales in London totalled with the U.S. is what takes her to 1 million, but that’s not good. None of her c.d.’s sell because she’s a one trick pony. For the demands that she makes and the shit that she pops, you’d think she was selling like Alicia. She needs to sit down somewhere.

Riri should get da heck out of this country. That lil ingrate be dissin her own people!

RIhanna HaS N() TaLeNt!!!!!!!!!!!

She’s a waste of the record labels money.

They should stop signing the mediocre people and expecting them to sell records.
I understand that it take the black people off the streets, but at who’s risk? They’re messing up the industry with their cheesy songs. It sad to see these teenagers just being sucked into the soulja boy’s, laffy taffy’s, and walk it out’s and they’ll never know what REAL music is something with a statements or meaning behind it not just shaking ass. You won’t even give a Common or a Talib kweli the time of day but Soulja boy’s one the HOTest “rappers” out their. THey should change it from Hip Hop to Dance and from R&B to POP. It’s damn shame of what it has come to.

I Love Neyo, I hope he does sue that molester and win.

Eddie, take care of your 7 kids first before you wife somebody up.

Rihanna is the shiit. Love u mama. She must be doing something right, Cause everybody is Talking !!!

and she taking it st8 to the bank,,, hahahaha

@ # 39, umm check billboard for your facts . RIHANNA HAS SOLD OVER A MILLION COPIES IN THE U.S.A… KNOW UR FACTS..THANX ,AND HAVE NICE DAY!!

Thanks for the article #28.

When people are dissing you in other countries for the local star, you know your time’s almost up - LMAO.

She better make as much money as she can in pictures because that profession’s short lived too. Also, how she thinks she’s outdone her peers that she’s not even on their level to be mentioned in the same sentence, there’s a new crop of young hot singers coming out in ‘08 that can actually sing and dance, i.e., Vanessa Hudgens, Kat DeLuna, etc.

#44 - Get with the times. Everyone knows Billboard doesn’t post the actual numbers, but post the AMOUNT OF RECORDS BEING SHIPPED by the record companies. NOT THE SAME AS WHAT’S BEING SOLD.

FOR EXACT NUMBERS, GO TO SOUNDSCAN.

i read that ne-yo is only asking for $785,000 for the 25 dates, that’s like $31,000 a city, that’s nothing to what i thought he could get but GET IT!!

rihanna is going to be fuckin for that money, 40 minutes to half a mil, she’ll be some russian billionaire’s jumpoff that night.

and eddie and tracey are married, i don’t care because i doubt it will last, it mocks russell and kimora match made business venture marriage.

Make that bread RiRi! Ne-yo is owed so why not get payed! I choose not to support The Kelster, I wanted to support the others, but I will have to get at them when they tour again w/o “Sir-Piss-Alot”!!

Right is just right Ne-yo get your money!!!

Get your money Neyo, Kelly should’ve been glad you even considered doing his tour.

I hope that Russian billionaire got more than Umbrella for all that money. He’s sitting somewhere right now mad as hell, wondering where the other $499,999 went.

Haters are ridiculous…..if that russian guy wanted a pretty face and/or nice body, he could have called up a call girl service or went to the local strip club….so OBVIOUSLY, it’s not that type of deal…i see the haters on here throwing more than salt, they throwing shoes, chairs, and whatever else….lol….and this people is why she WILL be around for a long time, controversy….controversy, keep people talking is the key today….so keep talking, keep throwing them chairs, and Rhi keeps getting paid….lol

You say Rhi has no talent, but nobody spending $1.00 on your asses to even sing the star spangled banner. Obviously, some people, not all, think she has talent, and like i said, to the tune of $500,000. She could have requested more, and i’m sure he would have paid it. I’m proud of her.

so eddie can go get married but cant do ish for his baby? umm a real man. and what kind of woman is tracey that you would marry a man who hasnt even seen his new baby? that dont bother her? i guess not. i mean when the last time you seen her with her own damn sons?

@ # 46, IF U HAVE A SUBSCRIPTION TO SOUNDSCAN OR BILLBOARD WHICH OBVIOUSLY U DONT..U WOULD FIND THIS…

AND THIS ON BILLBOARD…
The first single from the album, “Umbrella”, reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the issue date June 9, 2007. It is the second lead single of an album by Rihanna to reach number one in the U.S, after “SOS” from A Girl like Me. “Umbrella” also hit the top spot in the UK Singles Chart for ten consecutive weeks, the longest running chart topper in a decade.[7]

On the issue date June 23, 2007, Good Girl Gone Bad entered the U.S. Billboard 200 at number two with 162,000 copies sold in its first week. Epiphany by T-Pain snagged the number one spot away from Good Girl Gone Bad, selling just 8,600 more copies. This is Rihanna’s best opening week album sales to date, significantly improving on the 68,000 first week sales of Music of the Sun and the 115,000 first week sales of A Girl Like Me. In the United Kingdom the album sold 53,000 copies in its first week, debuted at number one, and so far has sold over 557,000 copies, earning Platinum certification. The album has sold over 1 million copies in the U.S. and more than 3.3 million copies worldwide.

ne-yo is an R&B singer, not a rapper.

I hope Neyo wins…this is not the first time people touring with rkelly has had a problem or complaint….so I believe Neyo on this and hope he gets all the money owed to him….Congrats to Rihanna for the 500grand…do your thing is all I can say….as far as eddie and tracey?…I guess congrats…why they still callin her edmunds…did her divorce go through? I hope Eddie is taking care of his kids running off to get married.

GOOD 4 R. Kelly ass.. Go Ne-Yo.. u my baby!

Damn @ Rihanna! she doin it big lol

Eddie Murphy –> *blank stare* Relevance?

Damn… children not invited to their own parents weddings anymore?
So much for the whole blended family

good for rihanna make that money girl..@whateva thanks for doing your research bc i didn’t know where to look for her sales…i’m glad she went plat..get em ri ri..

EM’ I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THAT PICTURE OF RIHANNA LOOKS ALOT LIKE CIARA FROM HER “THAT’S RIGHT” VIDEO WHEN SHE HAD ON THE BLACK SPANDEX PANTS AND THE BLACK BRA AND SHE WAS DANCING…LOOKS TO ME AS IF SHE’S SWAGGER JACKING B-CUZ ON THE”GOOD GIRL GONE BAD” TOUR WITH CIARA RIHANNA HAD A SHORT BOB AND THEN WHEN CIARA WAS ADDED TO THE TOUR AND SHE HAD BLACK LONG CURLY HAIR AND THEN RIHAAN SWITHED IT UP AND START WEARING HER HAIR LONG AND CURLY THATS WHY CIARA SWITCHED HER HAIR COLOR TO LIGHT BROWN…CIARA ORIGINALLY WANTED TO CUT HER HAIR AND DIE IT BLACK BUT RIHANNA BEAT HER TO IT…I LIKE RIHANNA TOO BUT I ALSO LIKE CIARA IT SEEMS TO ME THAT RIHANNA LOOKS LIKE CIARA ON THE PICTURE UP TOP B-CUZ SHE USUALLY HAS SOMETHING SHORT ON WITH HER LEGS OPEN……OH YEA CIARA ALSO WORE THAT OUTFIT TO PERFORM “LIKE A BOY/THAT’S RIGHT” AT THE BET AWARDS WHEN SHE RIPPED OFF HER #25 JERSEY…(RIHANNA STICK TO THE BOB GIRL…JUS LET CIARA HAVE SOMETHING OF HER OWN FOR ONCE)

who cares about rihalien ?!
that girl has not talent
she’s just pretty like cassie those girls needs to stick to modeling

Alright RiRi!!

Get that shit!!

Im proud of her. She is the next big thing.

I think its about time Ne-yo took some legal action against R.Kelly. His head is way too big. You can’t go around and kick someone off a tour that has a legal binding contract involved. His already in enough ish right now with those Child Porn Charges still pending.

Thanks WHATEVA, but you still showed me what I said. ALL HER ALBUMS DID NOT GO PLAT IN THE U.S., BUT WITH THE HELP OF WORLDWIDE SHE GOT TO GO PLAT. SHE FINALLY REACHED THE PLAT GOAL, BUT LOOK HOW LONG IT TOOK.

EITHER WAY, she’s still not selling like she should for the shit she pops. Also, I didn’t know the exact numbers, but I knew she’s not where she should be. These mediocre sales are a joke to other artists that she compares herself too. ALL HER ALBUMS COMBINED STILL HASN’T GOTTEN HER DIAMOND.

SHE’S STILL A ONE TRICK PONY THAT CAN’T SELL ALBUMS, CONCERT TICKETS OR EVEN UMBRELLAS.

ROTFLMAO….. got some more stats for me to laugh at? You posted those like you were doing something…. LMAO.

there are so many talented girls out there and only skinny ass bitches are famous im sorry but that is the truth

What’s with all the trash talking about Rhianna she’s alright but you see this is what i dont get it when you say something bad about beyonce your hater, sorry to bring her name up but its true. Rhi keep doing the damn thing i aint mad at ya.

Kudos, to Neyo coz lord knows R kelly had it coming to him, the damn pervert!!

rihanna….. yawn….. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

and we wonder why music is going down hill. you can’t make a studio chick into a star. we might as well bring britney back.

I hope Ne-yo gets every penny he is suing for.
Get your loot Rih!
Eddie & Tracey…whatever! Eddie is gay. She ain’t nothing but a beard.

Okay @ WAKEUP not that many artist have a Diamond and that you dont combine that’s off of 1 album alone. Go to Billboard.com and find out who has a Diamond then comeback and talk about it. How about you do some research before you start hatin RiRi is doing a lot better than you right now. Whether she can sing or not.

@ # 62, ACTUALLY I WAS POINTING OUT THAT HER CD HAS SOLD OVER A MILLION COPIES IN THE U.S.A. ALONE (1.3 MILLION TO BE EXACT) AND 3.3 MILLION WORLDWIDE..SO NOW SHE HAS TO PLATINUM PLUS ALBUMS(IN THE U.S.A ) ALONE,,I DO MY RESEARCH..MAYBE U SHOULD TOO..LMAO!!

AND SINCE WHEN DID SHE COMPARE HERSELF TO BEIN A BIG AS THESE OTHER ARTIST??

I don’t know what world these people are living in, but Beyonce, Janet, and Rhi-Rhi are the same. I am a huge Beyonce and Janet fan, but lets be honest. Neither of these women have the best voices, but they can entertain the heck out of any performance. This is all Rhi-Rhi does. How are we going to criticize Rhi-Rhi just because she has not been out as long. The last time I checked, especially on an international level, that girl is selling and gaining fame. So….

NO PROBLEM @ # 58..I HAD TO THO..LOL..ITS BEST TO KNOW FACTS

i dont know wat rihanna has done to BLACK PEOPLE that they are treating her like OSAMA BIN LADEN. explain that to me, DID RIHANNA BLOW UP THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY WITH C4 OR SOMETHING? THE GIRL IS TREATED LIKE A TERRORIST.

HATERS NEED TO SPEW THEIR HATE ELSEWHERE CAUSE IT IS MAKIN DEM LOOK FOOLISH. 6 GRAMMY NOMINATIONS, AMERICAN MUSIC AWARD FAV RandB SINGER, VIDEO OF THE YEAR, MONSTER SINGLE OF YEAR, FEMALE ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR AND WORLD’S BEST SELLIN POP FEMALE AWARDS seem not to SATISFY that RIHANNA IS DOIN HER THING, with talent or not.

EXPLAIN SOMETHIN TO ME, WHY DO TALENTED ARTISTS LIKE WHITNEY, LAURYN HILL, AMY WINEHOUSE, ETC TURN TO DRUGS? TALENTED ARTISTS NOWADAYS ARE REPLACED BY THE LESS TALENTED CAUSE THE TALENTED ONES ARE THE DRUG ADDICTS. rihanna aint no KIM K, BRITNEY, PARIS HILTON OR LOHAN but she is ridiculed by BLACK PEOPLE. she aint partyin, sexin around like those mentioned nor ON DRUGS LIKE WHITNEY HOUSTON, but blacks still hate the girl. RIHANNA DID NUFFIN WRONG.

she is earning money, sellin albums, etc gettin GRAMMY NOMINATIONS and people say she is a JOKE. THE WHITES NEVER TAUGHT BRITNEY SPEARS WAS A JOKE WITH HER DANCIN LIP SYNCHIN SELF until she turned to drugs, etc. BRITNEY WAS APPRECIATED BY HER OWN PEOPLE BACK IN THE DAY.

@ 69. No that’s just it. Ri CAN’T perform. Have you seen her! LMAO. She’s sooo DRY! Her face doesn’t even move. Now Janet…nuff said (everybody already knows) and although I’m tired of Bey, I think she Can sing and she performs well too. With Ri she can’t sing, she can’t perform. SHE IS SO PACKAGED that we can all see right through her. Somebody tell me, does she write her own stuff. IDK but Beyonce does and I think Janet writes some too.

I’m Sorry, we the public arn’t hypin up trash anymore. Give us some substance.

RIHANNA HAS WAY MORE INTERNATIONAL FAME THAN CIARA, KEYSHIA, ETC. THE ONLY FEMALE BLACK SINGERS WHO ARE WELL KNOWN INTERNATIONALLY ARE BEYONCE, ALICIA, RIHANNA, JANET, AND TO A LESSER EXTENT MARY J BLIGE.

CONGRATS RIHRIH FUH EARNIN $500K.

BTW, IF JAYZ WANTED RIHANNA TO BE AT THE 4040 LAS VEGAS HE WOULD HAVE REQUESTED HER TO BE THERE. RIHANNA EARNED 500K FUH 40 MINS, THAT GOES TOWARDS HER NEXT ALBUM.

RIHRIH. CONTINUE TO EARN THAT MONEY, I CANT WAIT FUH THE GRAMMYS. TELL THE HATERS THAT U HAVE THE SONG OF THE YEAR AND RECORD OF THE YEAR NOMINATION. THOSE ARE TWO OF THE BIGGEST GRAMMY CATEGORIES.

@JAY, DOES CHRIS BROWN WRITE HIS SONGS? NO HE DOESNT. BEYONCE DIDNT WRITE THE BIGGEST HIT OF HER CAREER, IRREPLACEABLE. SO SHUT UP BOUT IF RIHRIH WRITES HER OWN STUFF. TIME WILL COME WHEN RIHANNA WILL DO THAT. THERE ARE A LOT OF ARTISTS WHO DONT WRITE THEIR OWN STUFF. STOP POINTIN OUT RIHRIH, CAUSE CHRIS BROWN DOES NOT WRITE HIS OWN SONGS.

BTW, CHRIS BROWN SOLD 750 000 AND HE HAS A PLATINUM CERTIFICATION NEXT TO HIS NAME ON BILLBOARD, YET NO ONE IS INDICATIN THAT. BUT SINCE IT IS RIHANNA, PEOPLE WANT TO SAY THAT IS SHIPMENT.

THANKS FUH DE INFO ON SOUNDSCAN AND BILLBOARD.

CONGRATS RIHRIH ON UR PLATINUM CERTIFICATION.

Are Rhianna and Ciara trading styles? I swear that outfit looks like what Ciara wore to the BET Awards. And there was a picture of Ciara on here not too long ago with hot pants on and a body shirt looking like something Rhianna wore.

I hope that Russian billionaire got more than Umbrella for all that money. He’s sitting somewhere right now mad as hell, wondering where the other $499,999 went.

Bill Said:
Dag, Dude paid $500,000 for Rihanna to sing Umbrella……
I hope he got some payback underneath the table

WHATEVER I COMPLETELY AGREE
RIHANNA’S TIME IS LIMITED COS SHE’S FAR LESS CHARISMATIC THAN HER PIERS SUCH AS CIARA WHO IS HUMBLE AND FUNNY AS HELL

SHE WAS SO DULL AND TALKING IN CLICHE’S WHEN I HEARD HER ON AN INTERVIEW THE OTHE DAY…I SAW HER AND CIARA LIVE AT WEMBLEY (LONDON) AND ALTHOUGH HER PERFORMANCE WAS MORE GLAMOROUS/ BIGGER/ WITH MORE DANCERS….CIARA KNOCKED HER SOCKS OFF (EVEN THOUGH HER SET WAS SIMPLE AS HEELL)

FIRST OFF, RI-RI WAS BETTER THAN I THOUGHT SINGING LIVE (GOOD ON HER) BUT SHE WAS SO IMPERSONAL, SHE STOOD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STAGE FOR HALF THE TIME..NOT ONLY THAT, SHE WAS AN HOUR LATE ON STAGE “TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES”….BUT THEY JUST PLAYED THE SAME MUSIC ON REPEAT FOR THAT HOUR WHILST WE WERE WAITING….IT WAS A DISGRACE, HER VERY OWN FANS WERE BOOOING!!!!! (BIG TIME)

THE PROBLEM IS SHE’S BLOWN UP FAST, AND ITS OBVIOUSLY GOTTEN TO HER HEAD……………IF SHE DIDNT HAVE THE MARKETING TEAM AND STYLISTS THAT SHE CURRENTLY HAS, SHE WOULDNT EVEN COMPARE…

FAIR ENOUGH SHE’S STILL YOUNG AND IMPROVING, BUT ITS NOT HER OWN

DEF JAM, OR WHOEVER IT IS, IS SELLING A “LOOK” AND “IMAGE” RIHANNA IS THE GUINEAPIG, THE RELTIVELY PRETTY YOUNG THING WHO CAN SING ALRIGHT WITH A GOOD BODY…NOW TELL ME HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD ARE LIKE THAT?….SHE ON HER OWN, STRIPPED OF ALL THE DOMINATRIX CLOTHES AND FANCY STAGE SETS WOULD BE NOT MUCH AT ALL…I’M NOT HATING PROPERLY, AS I DO LIKE HER SONGS…I JUST DONT THINK SHE’S PARTICUARLY TALENTED.

I ALMOST FEEL LIKE I’VE SEEN HER PERFORM ONCE, AND THERE’S NO NEED FOR ME TO SEE HER PERFORM AGAIN………WHERE AS CIARA - I WAS ABOUT TO START SCREAMING ENCORE ENCORE….I WENT IN LIKING THEM BOTH EQUALLY AND WENT OUT HAVING A PREFERENCE..POINT MADE.

AND I’M SPEAKING FROM SOMEONE IN THE UK WHERE RIHANNA IS SUPPOSIDLY VERY POPULAR

ne-yo is a class act and i think he’s gonna get every penny that he is suing for and then some. he wasn’t greedy about it by suing for more than what he was supposed to get for the actual tour, and that shows great integrity on ne-yo’s behalf…

i can’t understand why so many ppl continue to hate on rihanna and other female entertainers…you can’t please everybody-rihanna, do your thang lil lady!

eddie and tracy: who cares???

beyonce stans are so jealous of rihanna

500,000 for 40 minutes. That is inconcievable!! You got to luv a “go-getter chick” that knows how to manipulate the power of the almighty dollar. And for the people who are implying that she did sexual favors. Shit….I’m a dude that earns a nice salary, plus I own a condo, and I would’ve f*cked ‘em for 500,000. You youngn’s have no concept of survival and better yet striving for that matter. Jump out into the real world and let’s see how much wealth you can accumulate, because right now I can say Rihanna is a winner. And even if her career is short lived; @ this rate she won’t have too much to worry about when it comes to money.

#68 - you must be the biggest riri stan going….

no research needs to be done on an artist that has 3 solo albums and still hasn’t sold the numbers that it should - forget diamond, she’s obviously still struggling to make platinum - it takes her a year and change to go platinum and you’re bragging on her sales? Do you realize Dangerously in Love is #1 for albums that are still selling according to BB’s Year End Charts. Her 3 albums combined aren’t doing that. Need I mention Ms. Keys? LMAO.

an interviewer overseas recently made Rihanna cry because he told her she was a hamburger to Alicia Key’s steak. which is the god honest truth. she can’t hold a candle to Alicia, Beyonce, etc., but she’s steady running her mouth putting herself in their league when she needs to fall back.

again, she’s a one trick pony that can’t sell albums or concert tickets and can’t sing or dance, but thinks she’s one of the greats….. as do you - ROTFLMAO.

MUSIC IS RUINED THANKS TO 1 TRICK PONY’S AND SNAP FINGER ARTISTS!!!

Rihanna stans so wish she was Beyonce.

Bajan shut the hell up and sit your ass down somewhere. Damn everytime Rihanna is ridiculed your ass is jumping to her defense like she’s paying you. Black people don’t care about Rihanna b/c we know talent when we see it and Rihanna is catering more to white people in order to sell more records and she still flopped. LMAO

Oh and don’t even compare her to the best of our generation like Beyonce, Alicia, and Janet. She’s nowhere near their level and she never will be b/c she’s talentless so just get over it. Independent Women is the biggest hit of Beyonce’s career and she wrote that one so get your facts straight. Ciara is known internationally b/c she sold way more than Rihanna her first week. Alicia sold more than Rihanna’s album in total in just 2 weeks. There’s no comparisonn to Janet. So please spare us of you being delusional as hell. Rihanna can’t sing or dance. Period. That’s why she gets no love. That and people are sick of you stans comparing her to people who can sing and dance circles around her any day. There’s nothing she’s done that bigger stars like Beyonce, Alicia, or Mary haven’t already done. Please sit down.

Wow at these comments, I’m not even a Rhiana fan but I think enough is enough. All this tearing down an artist is getting out of hand, no wonder some of our own brothers and sisters can trust our own people. All we do is degrade, degrade, degrade.

Damn right Neyo get ur money.

Rihanna get ur money.

If you don’t like the artist why do you even waste your time typing with your fingers into the blog.

@ Bajan. First of all. Calm yourself. Now, I was asking a question which you answered with way to much hostility, lol. I repeat “Somebody tell me, does she write her own stuff. IDK but Beyonce does and I think Janet writes some too.” Even if it wasn’t a question.. I was comparing her to the two other female entertainers that urban girl mentioned. None other need apply, nevertheless Chris Brown. But if you want to go there….

Chris Brown can perform his butt off AND can sing. (Ri can do neither)
I looked it up. Chris Brown co-wrote 4 of the albums on his cd. I don’t care to research Rihanna, I’d rather somoene told me. Her last name is Fenty, look it up yourself and let me know.

@ # 82..WHAT DA FUCK ARE U TALKIN BOUT?? RIHANNA’S LAST ALBUM CAME OUT JUNE 5th. 2007. SO HOW DA FUCK DID IT TAKE HER A YEAR TO GO PLATINUM…AND WHY ARE U COMPARING HER TO BEYONCE & ALICIA KEYS?? THESE ARE 2 ARTIST WHO HAVE BEEN OUT SINCE RIHANNA WAS A LIL GIRL..LIKE I STATED DA FACTS..RIHANNA IS DOIN HER THING..DONT HATE ON HER, CUS UR MISERABLE!! LAME

I HAVE NEVER READ ANYWHERE, WHERE RIHANNA COMPARES HERSELF TO ANY OTHER ARTIST… WHERE THE FUKK ARE YA’LL GETTING THIS FROM ????

* songs

CRABS IN A MOFO BUCKET !!!!

Correction *Can= Can’t

Hold up! Now Rihanna aka Pon de Forehead is swagger jacking Ciara! Someone please tell this bitch to stop swagger jacking everybody. Damn! Fefe dobson/victoria beckham/Beyonce/Ciara damn she done swagger jacked everybody. I used to like Rihanna but she need to stop stealing people shit and get her own image. No wonder so many people can’t stand her ass.

EM’ I THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THAT PICTURE OF RIHANNA LOOKS ALOT LIKE CIARA FROM HER “THAT’S RIGHT” VIDEO WHEN SHE HAD ON THE BLACK SPANDEX PANTS AND THE BLACK BRA AND SHE WAS DANCING…LOOKS TO ME AS IF SHE’S SWAGGER JACKING B-CUZ ON THE”GOOD GIRL GONE BAD” TOUR WITH CIARA RIHANNA HAD A SHORT BOB AND THEN WHEN CIARA WAS ADDED TO THE TOUR AND SHE HAD BLACK LONG CURLY HAIR AND THEN RIHAAN SWITHED IT UP AND START WEARING HER HAIR LONG AND CURLY THATS WHY CIARA SWITCHED HER HAIR COLOR TO LIGHT BROWN…CIARA ORIGINALLY WANTED TO CUT HER HAIR AND DIE IT BLACK BUT RIHANNA BEAT HER TO IT…I FON’TLIKE RIHANNA…I DON’T HATE HER BUT I LIOVE CIARA IT SEEMS TO ME THAT RIHANNA LOOKS LIKE CIARA ON THE PICTURE UP TOP B-CUZ SHE USUALLY HAS SOMETHING SHORT ON WITH HER LEGS OPEN……OH YEA CIARA ALSO WORE THAT OUTFIT TO PERFORM “LIKE A BOY/THAT’S RIGHT” AT THE BET AWARDS WHEN SHE RIPPED OFF HER #25 JERSEY…RIHANNA STOP THE MADNESS!!!!…CIARA IS THE BEST ALONG WITH BEYONCE,ALICIA KEYS,JANET JACKSON,MARIAH CAREY…ETC!!!

lmao what’s up with these long ass novels about rihanna being a flop.
if you dont like her why do you pay so much attention her danm? and i thought i was a fan
anyway rihanna’s shitting on you haters now wonder you’re mouth is full of shit you feel me
and that’s all i got to say
i gotta admit you got my attention, at laughing at you lmao
SIGH anyway

um..if you are going to hate on diffrent screen names atleast type diffrently DANM
yall are so hillarious
i need some popcorn

Oh hell no why this bitch swagger jacking my girl Ciara!!!!!! Rihanna has to be the number 1 copier in the industry. She must be very desperate trying to sell more copies of her flopped c.d. Rihanna stans won’t admit it but she did flop she barely went platinum after all those months. And ain’t nobody paying Rihanna no damn attention. We just stating the truth and you stans are getting upset.

Rihalien is a swagger-jacking, no talent, flat ass bitch end of story. SMH Her and Cassie both deserve the title for most nontalented black female artists ever in history.

KennyandPebbles everybody can say the same about ya’ll Rihanna stans. Both Whateva and Bajan type in all caps so they probably the same person too. And if Rihanna was really all that then you wouldn’t care what anyone said about her swagger jacking ass.

Dnt get all excited, according to the article, that was pretty cheap considering george michael did a performance for 3.3million…they got her becuz she charges practically nothin..hahah…thats more than i have in my pocket but still, still aint doing big things…..

TECHNICALLY EVERY ARTIST OUT THERE BORROWS LOOKS OR SOMETHING FROM THE NEXT WETHER IT BE A DANCE MOVE ETC. SO THE FUKKK WHAT !!!

i wonder if eddie invited charlie murphy to the wedding….now what did the five fingers say to the face?…..slap!!!

lol i have the right to like whoever i do but unlike yall i dont go to post about celebs i dislilke and give them that much attention
and 99 it’s not about posting in CAPs but repeating the same thing over and over again esp one comment after the other and it’s not that hard to notice seriously
i love cici too and when she was wearing the same boots as rihanna i wasnt all up in her face because they’re just clothes i didnt know ciara owned leather please how would you like those ciara/janet/aaliay comparisons i bet you love them

(I SEE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT NOTICES THIS…HUH)

What the hell is a “stan?”

#89 - Your name says it all WHATEVA - LMAO. Your the biggest Lame on this board arguing about a whack no talentless wanna.

Don’t hate because she takes forever to go platinum - her first two barely made it over the hump.

Don’t also hate that SHE’S comparing herself to greats and is getting chopped down because she’s not that good.

I hear misery in your voice boo - calm down. No matter how hype you get, you’ll still be the lame you want others to be and she’ll still be a talentless trick.

ROTFLMAO…..

FACE IT CIARA IS WAAAY MORE TALENTED AND SELLS MORE…RIHANNA IS JUS HER FOR NOW AND WILL BE GONE 2MORROW WITH ALL HER GIMMICKS

its true…rihanna has done this whole bad girl/rock chick mixed with r’n'b so she can appeal to a wide market and sell records….i doubt shes ever listened or like any rock in her life…..PLUS SHE BARELY WRITES ANY OF HER MUSIC when ciara was 16, she wrote for fantasia and mya - before she was famous….RIHANNA IS ANOTHER GIRL NEXT DOOR BEING TREATED LIKE A MOULDABLE PUPPET BY HER RECORD LABEL…

I FEEL U #108…PLUS SHE’LL NEVER GET FAR WITH THAT BITCHY ATTITUDE UNLIKE RIHANNA CIARA IS HUMBLE AND SHE DIDN’T 4GET WHERE SHE CAME FROM…HOWEVER RIHANNA HATES HER HOMETOWN BARBADOS I SHOULD I SAY THEY HATE HER

I WOULD HAVE MORE SYMPATHY IF SHE ACTED IN A HUMBLE GRATEFUL WAY…BUT THIS IS JUST ANOTHER STREAM OF EVIDENCE TO SHOW SHE AINT….literally i have more than one friend that has bumped into her in london and to both of them she COMPLETELY IGNORED….WHEN SHE WAS IN NIGERIA FOR THE INDEPENDENCE DAY FESTIVAL, SHE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE WATER, AND DIDNT WANT TO WASH IN IT

MY FRIENDS WHO MET BEYONCE AND CIARA WHEN THEY WERE IN NIGERIA SAID THEY WERE SO HUMBLE AND GRATEFUL

CIARA EVEN GREATED THE CROWD SPEAKING IN A COMMON NIGERIAN DIALECT….TO TAKE THE TIME TO LEARN THAT SHOWS SHE’S THANKFUL

how come she hates barbados????
thats silly to admit to that, even if she does

good for neyo send that fucking looser in a downward spiral he is a looser rkelly your TIME IS UP!

CIARA WILL GO VERY FAR…I THINK SHE IS THE MOST UNDERATED ARTIST IN TODAY’S INDUSTRY…SHE’S NOT THE NEXT JANET NOR THE NEXT AALIYAH…BUT SHE IS THE FIRST CIARA…I THINK SHE HAS TOTAL CONTROL OF HER CAREER AND SHE’S HER OWN PERSON UNLIKE RIHANNA WHO WANTS TO BE MADONNA/BEYONCE/FEFE DOBSON/ETC…..!!!

I AGREE D-SNUB (ALTHOUGH THIS IS OFF TOPIC LOL)
CIARA IS UNDERATED, BUT THATS COS SHES NOT PUTING IT ALL OUT ON A PLATE AT ONCE….SHE’S PACING HERSELF - THATS SMART, SHE KEEPS PEOPLE HANGING.

LOOK WHAT HAPPENED TO MADONNA, EVERYONE THOUGHT CINDY LAUPER WOULD BE MORE SUCESSFUL, IN THE 80′S MAYBE SHE WAS…BUT THEN SHE BURNT OUT AND LOOK AT MADONNA NOW!!!

TAKE XTINA AND BRITNEY, AT FIRST EVERYONE THOUGHT BRITNEY WOULD HOLD IT DOWN….LOOK AT THE TWO OF THEM NOW.

GIVE IT 3 YEARS AND CIARA WILL BE (I HOPE) UP THERE RIGHT AT THE TOP LIKE SHE DESERVES, SHE AINT HAD IT EASY….AND FOR NO APPARENT REASON

Why does ppl say that Rihanna is not talented?
To me i think she is very talented
& just because she was paid 500,000 doesnt mean she got on her knees!

C’MON PEOPLE!

D-SNUB I agree with you 100 percent! I don’t hate Rihanna or any celebrity for that matter because let’s face it we don’t know these people. BUT she does swagger jack people a lot and that pisses people off especially since white people be giving her credit for a style that’s not even hers. I mean it’s one thing to be influenced by someone but to continuously copy people and then take credit for it is a completely different story. Do ya’ll Rihanna stans really believe she wore the bob first? Hell no, everyone from back to T-boz been rocking that look for years and since Rihanna catered more to white people they gave her credit for it. SMH At least Ciara done gave Janet and Aaliyah their credit but Rihanna’s bitch ass keeps copying people and not admitting that she’s not the originator. There is nothing original about Rihanna. There’s nothing she’s done that someone else hasn’t already done. So excuse me if I come across as a hater but the truth hurts and everybody except for the Rihanna stans see it.

Ignorant CBS journalist writer calling Ne-Yo a rapper…(Shaking My Head)…can’t people tell the difference between a rapper and a R&B singer? =/

#98 & #104…..u seriously need the Lord

Neyo , you go on girl and get your money!

Don’t know if I believe the Eddie’s gay rumors - the man has a hundred children… Congrats I guess. Tracy is beautiful.

Rihanna seems to be getting a BIG HEAD. And the Russians dissed her in that article too. This fame game rarely lasts too long…she better learn from artists like Janet, Alicia and Beyonce about having longevity. Here today gone tomorrow.

Happy New Year to all, I hope you all have a blessed year !

I loved Rhianna’s first album, everything after that I didn’t like. I will admit she can’t sing but I think why people are so fustrated with her because she is a gimick now. The second album she was trying to be a knock off Beyonce and the third album she trying to be rock something she aint. People want real music and artist.

If Eddie and Traci are really in love and happy then congrats.

Neyo should be paid if he is owed.

I wish them all the best.

AND ANOTHER THING WITH RIHANNA I THINK IS THAT SHE IS MOVIN TOO FAST SHE IS ONLY WHAT?…19…SHE’S ALREADY CHANGED HER HAIR,STYLE,MUSIC…SHE’S ALREADY STARTED TO TAKE OFF HER CLOTHES AND GET NAKED…SLOW DOWN BABY U HAVE ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD TO DO THAT…..SEE IF U THROW IT ALL OUT THERE AT ONCE LIKE RIHANNA THERES GONNA BE NOTHIN LEFT TO SEE FROM HER IN THE FUTURE…WHERE AS CIARA IS REAALLY MAKIN HER FANS WANT HER LIKE THE”THAT’S RIGHT” VIDEO HER FANS WERE DIEING TO SEE IT…CIARA KEEPS HERSELF AWAY LONG ENUFF TO BE MISSED AND IN THE FUTURE SHE CAN CHANGE UP HER MUSIC/STYLE/HAIR/ETC…LIKE U SEE NOW HOW HER STYLE IS SLOOOWLY CHANGING/HER IMAGE IS SLOOWLY CHANGING SO BY THE TIME HER NEXT ALBUM CUMS OUT SHE’LL BE TRANSITIONING …B-CUZ SHE HASN’T DONE THAT YET AND SHE’S ONLY 22 SO SHE HAS MORE THAN ENUFF TIME TO DO THAT….RIHANNA JUS COULDN’T PACE HERSELF AND SHE JUMPED FROM A COMPLETELY TO Z WITHOUT A WARNING

I’m so sick of that child molester…I cannot believe that people still support his concerts…I wouldn’t go if it were free….It amazes me that when the charges first came up he started performing Gospel songs…”He Saved Me” now that the publicity has died down he is back to the same type songs before the controversy….Child molestation very prominent in our community and I see why… we are too quick to forgive…… The dude has problems….Get your money!!!!

AND ANOTHER THING WITH RIHANNA I THINK IS THAT SHE IS MOVIN TOO FAST SHE IS ONLY WHAT?…19…SHE’S ALREADY CHANGED HER HAIR,STYLE,MUSIC…SHE’S ALREADY STARTED TO TAKE OFF HER CLOTHES AND GET NAKED…SLOW DOWN BABY U HAVE ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD TO DO THAT…..SEE IF U THROW IT ALL OUT THERE AT ONCE LIKE RIHANNA THERES GONNA BE NOTHIN LEFT TO SEE FROM HER IN THE FUTURE…WHERE AS CIARA IS REAALLY MAKIN HER FANS WANT HER LIKE THE”THAT’S RIGHT” VIDEO HER FANS WERE DIEING TO SEE IT…CIARA KEEPS HERSELF AWAY LONG ENUFF TO BE MISSED AND IN THE FUTURE SHE CAN CHANGE UP HER MUSIC/STYLE/HAIR/ETC…LIKE U SEE NOW HOW HER STYLE IS SLOOOWLY CHANGING/HER IMAGE IS SLOOWLY CHANGING SO BY THE TIME HER NEXT ALBUM CUMS OUT SHE’LL BE TRANSITIONING …B-CUZ SHE HASN’T DONE THAT YET AND SHE’S ONLY 22 SO SHE HAS MORE THAN ENUFF TIME TO DO THAT….RIHANNA JUS COULDN’T PACE HERSELF AND SHE JUMPED FROM A COMPLETELY TO Z WITHOUT A WARNING…NOW WHEN RIHANNA IS 25 WHAT IS SHE GONNA DO SHE ALREADY CUT HER HAIR,STARTED WEARING LESS CLOTHES,OPENING HER LEGS ,BEING NAKED ON A VIDEO…I THINK THE WHOLE TRANSITION WAS TOO FAST AND A GIMMIC”..”OH NOW DAT BITCH WANNA BE A BAD GIRL AFTER 2 ALBUMS?…GET DA FUCK OUTTA HERE”…PUT IT LIKE THIS BEING BAD IS TO BE NOTICED NOT SAID…IF YOU HAVE TO LET IT BE KNOWN THAT UR BAD NOW THAN U MUST NOT BE THAT BAD OF A GIRL IF IT IS NOTICED BY SOMEONE ELSE THAN ITS OFFICIAL BUT SHE NEED TO TOP GOIN AROUND SAYING SHE A REBEL…!!!

R- Kelly washed up ..only ppl buy his albums are those 30-40 y/o ghetto women…R.kelly on that Britney Status right now…Suing Jay for 75 million…bc of pepper spray? wtf..kicking Neyo and Keyshia Cole off the tour, not allowing them to look him in the eye …what kind of shit is that?

Not to mention I never like that fool for preying on Aaliyah and marrying her when dhe was 15

#5………ignant white ppl, thats all i gotta say

125
please dont make racial differences….cos i’m caucasion and i think my opinion is just as valid as the next….yeah it pisses me off how rihanna pretends to be this bad girl….it seems so forced
to churn out 3 albums in 2 years or so proves to me she cant be takin much time herslef to write the content with care, thought and originality…churning stuff out like she has is just robotic

also why does she not like barbados?

yo gou ne-yo get that money! get that money!

D-SNUB,

ARE YOU BARBADIAN? I AM BARBADIAN. I DONT HATE RIHANNA. BARBADOS DOES NOT HATE RIHANNA, STOP BELIEVIN WAT U PEOPLE READ FROM THE NET. THERE ARE BAJANS WHO ARE JEALOUS AND ENVIOUS, I ADMIT THAT, BUT TO HATE SOMEONE WITHOUT A CAUSE IS NOT HATE. IN BARBADOS RIHANNA’S VIDEOS ARE SHOWN ON OUR TV STATION, HER AWARDS SHE WON ARE RECOGNIZED IN THE NEWSPAPERS, ETC. THERE ARE ONLY A FEW WHO DOES NOT LIKE RIHANNA. WAT RIHANNA SAID BOUT BARBADOS IS NOT A LIE, I LIVE HERE I KNOW WAT SHE IS TALKIN BOUT. IF SHE TOLD A LIE SHE WOULD SEEM FAKE ETC TO US.

DID BEYONCE PACE HERSELF? OR WAS SHE IN THE OPEN ALL THE TIME? BEYONCE WAS CONSTANTLY SEEN ALL OVER AND SHE HAS LONGEVITY AND FAME. SO WHY CANT RIHANNA APPEAR ALL THE TIME? HAS BEYONCE EVER TAKEN A BREAK? NO. WHY SHOULD RIHANNA TAKE A BREAK? IN THE INDUSTRY IF U STAKE UR CLAIM NOW U WILL BE LOST.

PEOPLE NEED TO READ THE ARTICLE AGAIN. THE ARTICLE CLEARLY DID NOT DOWNPLAY RIHANNA.

EVERYONE KNOWS RIHANNA DIDNT INVENT THE BOB. RIHANNA SAID THAT PEOPLE ASK FOR THE RIHANNA HAIRCUT. RIHANNA DIDNT NAME THE CUT THE RIHANNA CUT. PEOPLE NAMED THE CUT AFTER RIHANNA. RIHANNA SAID SHE GOT THE ASYMMETRICAL BOB FROM AEON FLUX WITH CHARLIZE. PEOPLE NEED TO STOP PULLIN DOWN THIS GIRL FUH A HAIRCUT THAT SHE KNOWS AND EVERYONE KNOWS SHE DIDNT INVENT. IN 2007 SHE BROUGHT THE BOB STYLE BACK AND PEOPLE CATCHED ON TO IT. TBOZ WORE IT BEFORE BUT TBOZ BOB IS NOWHERE ASYMMETRICAL. PEOPLE DIDNT STUDY THE BOB UNTIL POSH AND RIHANNA STARTED SPORTIN IT. RIHANNA SAID SHE GOT THE HAIRCUT FROM AEON FLUX MOVIE.

AND TO SAY THAT RIHANNA GOT ON HER KNEES FOR $500K IS SHAMEFUL TO CLASSIFY HER AS A KARRINE STEPHENS.

ASKIN FOR THE RIHANNA HAIRCUT IS MORE IDENTIFIABLE THAN JUST ASKIN FUH A BOB. RIHANNA SAID SHE GOT HER HAIR CHANGE FROM AEON FLUX MOVIE. HER BOB DOES NOT LOOK LIKE POSH SPICE.

PEOPLE GAVE THE BOB THE NAME RIHANNA BOB, RIHANNA NEVER SAID SHE INVENTED IT NOR NAMED IT. SHE SAID PEOPLE ARE ASKIN FOR THE “RIHANNA HAIRCUT” IT IS THE WOMEN WHO GAVE IT THAT NAME AND NOT RIHANNA.

RIHANNA IS TRULY THE SCAPEGOAT TO BLAME FUH EVERYONE’S DOWNFALL. RIHANNA IS BLAMED FUH EVERYTHING.

THE TALENTED ARTISTS LIKE WHITNEY AND LAURYN HILL AND AMY WINEHOUSE ARE DRUG ADDICTS. IF THEY WERE TRULY TALENTED WHY THE HELL WOULD U WANT TO DO DRUGS? AND STILL TODAY PEOPLE ARE BLAMIN RIHANNA FUH THEIR DOWNFALL. SHAME.

BAJAN,

IDON’T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT WHAT U SAID…I DIDN’T EVEN READ UR COMMENT CUZ IT WAS LONG AS SHIT BUT I SEEN MY NAME…BUT I KNO IT IS BULLSHIT….TRYNA PERSUADE ME TO GIVE RIHANNA THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT…DAMN CALM DOWN U ACTIN LIKE U FUCKIN DA BITCH OR SUMTHIN…BAJAN FUCK U AND FUCK WHAT U GOT TO SAY…WHO GIVES A FUCK…DON’T REPLY TO ME WRITIN DAT DUMB AS SHIT LIKE I SAID SATTE UR OPINION AND KEEP DAT SHIT MOVIN…NO ONE GIVES A FUCK ABOUT WHAT U THINK ABOUT WHAT I SAID IT’S MY OPINION…N U LIVIN IN BARBADOS AIN’T GOT SHIT TO DO WIT DIS POST OR RIHANNA…PLEASE DO ME A FAVOR N STOP BEIN SUCH A DIE HARD FAN..U BORED BITCH…U ONE OF THOSE BITCHES DAT STAY IN DA HOUSE N RESEARCH RIHANNA…GET A LIFE SWEETY…!!!….”AS A MATTER OF FACT FUCK RIHANNA AND U AIN’T NONE OF YA’LL BITCHES PAYIN ME FUCK BOTH OF YA’LL

I RESEARCH OTHER ARTISTS BEFORE I POST NONSENSE AND LIES. IF PEOPLE LEARN TO READ UP ON THEIR OWN AND STOP DEPENDIN ON OTHERS TO TELL DEM SOMETHIN THEN WE WONT HAVE PEOPLE POSTIN BOUT RIHANNA AINT PLATINUM IN THE USA YET.

COME ON, DO YA RESEARCH BEFORE U POST. DONT COME POSTIN RIHANNA INVENTED A BOB WHEN RIHANNA SAID SHE DIDNT AND SHE GOT IT FROM AEON FLUX MOVIE. THE NET IS FULL OF STUFF BOUT ARTISTS, WHY NOT RESEARCH AND THEN POST INSTEAD OF COMIN HERE BLASTIN SOMEONE NAME BASED ON HEARSAY.

I AINT GIVE BOUT WHO LIKE HER OR NOT, BUT DONT COME POSTIN THAT SHE HAD SEX FUH 500K. THAT IS A DISGRACE. U COULD SAY THAT BOUT KARRINE STEPHENS CAUSE SHE KNOWS SHE DOES IT. RIHANNA NEVER SAID OR NEVER IMPLIED TO NO ONE THAT SHE HAD SEX FUH MONEY.

STOP MAKIN HER LOOK LIKE KIM K, PARIS HILTON, SUPAHEAD, LINDSAY LOHAN, AMY WINEHOUSE, ETC.

@D-SNUB,

THE REASON U DONT CARE BOUT WAT I WROTE IS BECAUSE U JUST POSTIN WITHOUT LOOKIN AT FACTS. SOUNDSCAN CLEARLY STATED THAT RIHANNA HAS SOLD MORE THAN ONE MILLION IN THE USA WITH GGGB, BUT STILL SOME FOOLS ARE STILL SAYIN THAT SHE AINT PLATINUM YET.

DO YA RESEARCH BEFORE POSTIN. I CHECKED BILLBOARD AND THEY HAVE A PLATINUM STATUS NEXT TO CHRIS BROWN’S LATEST CD, AND WHEN I CHECKED HIS FIGURES HE IS ONLY 750 000+. I DID MY RESEARCH BEFORE I SAID SOMETHIN WRONG.

IF PEOPLE ARE SAYIN RIHANNA HAD SEX FUH THAT HALF MILLION, WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE? IF U GUYS SHOW EVIDENCE BEFORE TYPIN NONSENSE I WOULD AGREE WITH U ALL. BUT SINCE THERE IS NO EVIDENCE LEAVE THAT CRAP OUT.

IT HAS NUFFIN TO BE A DIE HARD FAN, I LOVE BEYONCE, RIHANNA, CIARA, ETC. I DONT PULL DOWN AND ARTIST TO UPLIFT ANOTHER.

I AM FROM BARBADOS AND HER VIDEOS AND AWARD SHOWS ARE SHOWN ON OUR TV STATION. ON TUESDAY THEY SHOWED THE WORLD MUSIC AWARDS. IF BARBADOS HATED RIHANNA WHY WOULD SHE BE ON THE TV. PEOPLE ARE SO CLUELESS THEY JUST LIKE TO HATE AND ENVY OTHERS.

I WISH I HAD MONEY LIKE RIHANNA, CIARA, BEYONCE, JAYZ ,ETC BUT THE LORD SAYS THAT I SHOULD NOT COVET. AND I AM NOT COVETIN CAUSE THEY GOT MONEY AND I AINT. I SUPPORT THEM.

OBVIOUSLY, U DIDN’T READ EVERYTHINIG I POSTED…B-CUZ 4 YA INFO I DIDN’T WRITE SHIT BOUT RIHANNA GETTIN ON HER KNEES 4 CASH NOR ABOUT INVENTING THE BOB..OR I DIDN’T WRITE ABOUT HER GOIN PLATINUM…WHY WOULD I WRITYE SHIT LIKE DAT…U ASSHOLE U ARE STUPID…U WERE READIN SHIT THAT OTHER PEOPLE POSTED N GOT MY SHIT MIXED UP CUZ I DIDN’T SAY NONE OF DAT SHIT U SAID I WROTE…U DUMMY HOW COULD U GET MY WORDS MIXED UP AND THERE RITE IN YOUR FACE..I WROTE ABOUT CIARA AND RIHANNA…I DON’T GIVE A FUCK BOUT HOW MANY RECORDS SHE SOLD…POINT BLANK IS CIARA SOLD MORE…LOOKS BETTER…IS A BETTER ENTERTAINER…AND JUS ALL AROUND A BETTER PERSON…GO THRU THIS POST N READ MY COMMENTS THEY DON’T SAY SHIT BOUT WHAT U SAID I WROTE DAT WAS OTHER PEOPLE…HOW COULD SOMEONE WHO DOES SO MUCH RESEARCH BE SO FUCKIN DUMB????????????????????????…:)

Go piss on that R. Kelly *snickers*

PEOPLE NEEDS TO KNOW WHAT THE HELL ACTUALLY HAPPEN AS FOR THE REASON WHY NEYO WAS TAKEN OFF OF THAT TOUR. BECAUSE I JUST DONT SEE RKELLY HAVING THAT MUCH POWER. AND I HAVE SEEN NEYO IN CONCERT AND HE WAS NOT EVEN THAT GOOD. AND HE COULDN’T OUTSHINE RKELLY ON KELLS WORSE DAYS.

LMAOOOOO #17!

Co-sign #51, its gotten so bad till the same ppl are postin under different names, jokes!! I guess wearing the same/similar outfit is a crime or sumthin…the words: ’swagger jackin’ ‘hater’ and ’stan’ are played out!

I think #62, 116 and 133 need ritalin, LOL!

Anyway, get that money Ne-yo! Grats to Eddie & Tracy…

I’m LMAO at the same Rihanna stans posting under different names. Ya’ll are so pathetic for real. Rihanna doesn’t even care about ya’ll so stop defending her like she ya’ll cousin. So what if people think she’s talentless and a ho. Who cares? It’s not like they talking about your momma. An opinion is like an asshole everybody has one.

I see Rhianna gets Beyonce appearance dollars! At least that what Beyonce’s appearance fee was/is.

On a old episode of Super Sweet Sixteen there was a young lady that was going to get Beyonce to sing at her party and I remember her or her parent(s) quoting that her(Beyonce’s) fee was $500,000 for an hour!

I do hope that NeYo gets what’s his. That was some childish ish that R.Kelly pulled!

I wish Eddie and Tracey the best. I hope he that he decides to make his daughter with Mel B. part of his family,*if he hasn’t already. If I were Tracey-I won’t feel comfortable with the fact he doesn’t acknowledge his child-that’s just me! Only time will tell…………………

Oh ! was anybody else scratching their head-because the news article referred to NeYo as a “rapper”-LOL! It bothers me that some media doesn’t know the difference,I often SMH when the media will refer to a singer as a rapper and vise versa. I know it’s minor,but still annoying!

#138 That episode must have been old b/c Beyonce gets paid like triple that now. The article said that $500,000 is cheap compared to some artists. This other dude (some singer) got paid 3mill for performing. I’m not trying to knock Rihanna but she hasn’t made it into the big leagues yet. She still got some work to do.

I hope Neyo gets his money if he was really done wrong. A lot goes on behind the scenes so we don’t know what really happened. For some reason I can’t believe that Neyo could outshine Rkelly. Neyo ain’t even got that many songs out.

Congrats to Eddie and Tracey. I hope he treats her a lot better than he did Mel. He also needs to step to the plate and be a father to his daughter if he hasn’t already.

Why can’t people just be happy for other people? RhiRhi is doing her thing and whether she has talent or not she is putting the rest to shame…she’s laughing all the way to the bank, that’s for sure!!

And please stop comparing her to other artists…she’s only 19 and Beyonce was still doing DC when she was the same age. RhiRhi’s been doing it all on her own, building her own hype and she’s doing a good job at t. Let her enjoy her time while it lasts.

Ok just wow!!! @ Bajan, D- Snub, Kate and Upset ciara fan; you all need to chill the fcuk out it aint that serious!!!

Rihanna can not sing her looks are average she sings Umbrella like its the only song she has ever made her stans try to make her more then what she is and then they get mad when you say she aint that cute her singing is medicore and it sucks Rihanna is such a gimmick her singing vocals will never change if you cant sing you cant sing Rihanna is one of those people that cant sing and Jay Z is no longer on Def Jam anymore so her time is about up.

omg , yall hating on RiRi….she’s a pop STAR, she has charisma and talent = STAR

Damn Rkelly can’t never tour with nobody. He always gotta make up some drama. First Hov and now Neyo.

Rihanna is aight. She’s no Beyonce or Alicia that’s for sure. Bey has been on top of the game for 10 years since she was 16. Alicia’s been on top too of her type of music. If Rihanna really wants to be like her idols, she needs to get more vocal training and dance lessons because her performances are not up to par.

Eddie needs to take care of his baby. I’m happy for him and Tracey but he still needs to handle his business.

it took me a minute to realize that was rihanna and not ciara….im steady readin the headline yet still thinkin i was readin about ciara cuz that pic looks like her…….anywho get ya money man…i mean she isnt the best singer to me so i dont know if i would pay that much to hear her sing for 20 minutes let alone 40….but its all good….thats what im talkin about starting the year off wit hella chips…im all for that

lol at them callin ne-yo a rapper and lmao at him gettin fired cuz they liked him betta then kellz……actually i would rather see kellz in concert….ne-yo is sort of a boring performer (on awards neway)……but whatev….wouldnt be the first time kellz was trippin on someone he was on tour wit

ok……..and we care about eddie gettin married because….he a grown man he’s allowed to do that….he just betta be takin care of dat lil girl of his and its all good.

I’m LMAO @ Vixen23 admitting that Rihanna should enjoy it while it lasts. rotflmao See even Rihanna own damn fans knows that she won’t have longevity and her 15 mins are about up. It’s funny how no one has ever said that about Ciara because everybody knows she can dance and sells way more than Rihanna and she’s only had 2 albums out. Rihanna’s had 3 albums out and everybody thought GGGB was her first album. LMAO Enough said no one takes this girl seriously as an artist. She doesn’t have longevity like Beyonce, Alicia, Mary J, Mariah, etc. Beyonce has been honored twice, one with dc and one solo, and she ain’t even 30 yet. It doesn’t matter if she was in a group, she was the lead singer and sang and wrote all their songs that made them famous. Alicia went platinum in like a week. She did in a week what Rihanna did after like 6 months. Mary is the Queen of hiphop/soul. Mariah has the best voice out there, so see all these women are legends because they have TALENT. Ciara will be joining them one day soon. Rihanna? Uh not so much. Sorry Rihanna stans ya’ll might as well get ready because in a few months it will be Rihanna who?

POOR R. KELLY, HE ALREADY GOING THROUGH PROBLEMS.

SORRY TO SAY BUT RIHANNA IS NOT WORTH PAYING 500,000 FOR.

AND CONGRATS TO EDDIE AND TRACEY HOPE IT ALL WORKS OUT.

Lots of you are underestimating Rihanna. Ciara don’t have shyt on Rihanna she can dance so what?.She can’t sing at least Rihanna sing live with a live a band. if Ciara is so good why was she opening for Rihanna On her European tour.? Ciara is only popular in the Urban market. Rihanna is know all over the world. Besides Beyonce, Alicia, Rihanna, Janet or Mary J. which other black Female artist has the global appeal. Rhianna has just been in the game for 30 months and look what she has accomplish. Ciara better pray nothing ever happen to her feet, because that would be the end of her career. When Rihanna broke her toe in the summer, she still puts on a concert sitting down. can you imagine Ciara do that?

***LMAO*** Why is R.Kelly always actin like a B**** on tour? ***RiRi is working it! Nice outfit!! 500000 for 40mins you know you doing the damn thang. ***WTF Eddie&Tracee Who cares? BF can do better***btw,how long have they been divorce? ***LMAO@ the people beefing over RiRis stats!!!

132.

bajan
Bajan, you have your job cut out for you - cause these folks ain’t gonna quit. Accept that this is a free for all- the brainy and the brainless(dont forget the weirdos too). Just because some folks on cl post negatively about Rihanna does not mean that blacks hate her - so careful with that - .Most blacks could give a shit about Rihanna, Beyonce, Ciara, R. Kelley, Alicia etc - got more important stuff to worry about. Posting facts are Ok but attacking with all that rant and rave ain’t doint shit - just stirring up the hornets nest - this is america baby and folks gonna fight back. Chill , peace.

um i know somebody else notice when did ne-yo become a rapper??? i guess i missed out on his last album sounded like a singer to me it says so in the first sentence

not a Rihanna fan, but i don’t hate her either. i guess she’s just like every other artist. Like, i don’t normally comment on Rihanna, because I’m not a fan of her and she has done anything awful or great that i deem to be worth of my commenting. but damn i was actually reading a good amount of your comments and think damn, if you dislike her some much why bother even commenting. It’s not like she’s Remy Ma, which I don’t really like either, and she [REMY MA] tried to kill a bitch.. now that’s worth commenting on…Rihanna has done anything WRONG to the point that she deserves all the negative commenting…. New Year.. Let The Child Be!…….

well anyways on to more important people…….
Ne-Yo boo! get that money!

need i not comment on Rihanna, you people are only making her have a bigger artist by talking about her,lmao. do like me! just forget the bitch is even alive.lmao!!!
so yeah — Ne-Yo, getting his paper, Kellz, dumbass should have saw this one coming, Kellz give up with the touring, they never seem to work out for you anyway..
and, I’m not commeting on the pregnancy of Tracy either, let it go.lmao…..

Damn CL, what a way to RING in the New Year, The Rihanna hate machine is still in Full Affect. The Rihanna Stan Machine is working double shifts. The Beyonce, Ciara, Janet, and Alicia Keys machines are all chiming in.. and the people who think they know the music industry, but trully have know clue… STILL have no clue in 08′.. this already is looking to be an interesting year.. by the way. I’m gonna make ya go crazy with this next comment..

can you believe Def Jam is renewing Rihanna and Ne-Yo’s contracts, expect new albums from the 4th quarter… You know they have one album every year….

by the way, why are the comments so fucking long, ya some elaborate speaker i can tell, get in it..lol

LOL at the responses to Ne-YO

He is not suing R-Kelly at all.Did anyone even read the statement ?Hes suing the PROMOTER on the assumption that someone who they cannot name pressured the promoter to fire Ne-YO BECAUSE FANS AND CRITICS LIKED HIM BETTER roflmao .

What lower level opening act has a ironclad contract that says he cant be fired ?

The R-Kelly hate is so strong that people just go along with whatever it is no matter how silly it is .

Ne-Yo is about to get paid.

The guy only paid Rhianna $500,000 to sing a song that only lasted 15 min.

Why would Tracey marry a deadbeat dad who does not care of his own child?

Eddie should be taking care of baby Angel instead of marrying her step-mom.

This thread is off the hook, LOL!

@#82 — did a reporter really say that to Rihanna’s face? Talk about OUCH! DAMN!!! I’m all for people getting that paper and if somebody’s willing to burn $500,000 on her, then so be it. That’s about $499,000 too much in my book because the girl really *cannot* perform (she has a string of horrible reviews to prove it). But she’s out there grinding so good for her. Hope she stacks it for a rainy day. (15…14…13….12….11…..)

Tracey is beautiful and best wishes to Eddie and her and their Brady Bunch!

I SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SICK OF RHIANNA .. NEXT

IM HAPPY NEYO IS FIGHTING BACK

hope things work out for ne-yo ;]
congrats eddie & tracey ;]

the best man was johnny gill.
things that make you go hmmmm…….

i’m glad ne-yo’s sueing. he’s talented, what more can i say?

rihanna……(snooze)

If I were ne-yo i’d sue R. Smelly’s stank ass too. get your $$$ paper dude!!!

I still think Rihanna is fly………..but she is noot very good live.

Eddie& Tracey (yawn….) I give it at least six months. I do not understand certain women always thinking they can change a man when you know DAMN WELL he was that way when you hooked up with him. I would never marry a Man who refuses to see is child……..that is not a MAN that is a P***Y! ( I actually have a friend who married this guy who already has a child and she like is four years old now…. has only seen her twice in her life! How f****d up is that? and she STILL married the dude!!!

Actually I am more inclined to believe that THIS is what Rihanna earned for her performance for the Russian Billionaire. 500,000 Russian Rouble = 20,358.0 US Dollar
The person who initially reported it forget to carry the 1,000! LOL And even at $20K the Russian OVERPAID!!!

I have never posted any comments.. I do read what others are saying. I decided to post because I am fed up with all of the prejudice and jealousy posted on these message boards. It is most obvious to everyone EXCEPT the HATERS, that jealousy and envy to the extremes posted here is just pure EVIL.

1.Rihanna has never claimed to be the “next” Whitney, But she is making hit records that are being recognized the world over. Furthermore, there is no next Mariah or “next” Whitney.
2.Rihanna was supposed to negotiate to get the most money she possibly could, that is her job, this is why her cd’s are not free. You all should be just as aggressive when negotiating business deals for yourselves, i am sure you are.

Rihanna is a pretty girl, by most anyones standards. She is sweet as candy in her interviews, and she comes across as genuine….. and she has $$$$$$. Why cant we just be happy for her? Or at least realize you should be happy for her, hide your hate, keep it inside. I am so tired of hearing it…and that goes for all of my girls you all constantly hate on..
Beyonce, Solange, Alicia, Ciara…MOST OF US LOVE ALL YALL….it just that a select few of the most obsessively jealous people on the planet, come on these internet sites to dog you guys. Most of them are ugly, poor, lonely and hopeless, just look at their pictures next to their posts.

actually malcom ciara didnt move a muscle when she sang MY LOVE in london…..all she had was a back drop and 3 male dancers who didnt do much themselves…its a beautiful BALLAD and she sang it pitch perfect….the whole of fricken wembley had their hands it the air, whether they came in a ciara fan or not.
so yes she can sing staying still and blow you away.

at 142…sayin we need to chill out…i’m perfectly chilled, this does not effect my life….but when you state strong opinions it sounds like you’re getting het up….but i’m perfectly fine thank you.

I also never post on board, but read comments out curiosity. What I see here and on other boards is that people have double standards and try to diss people with the wrong arguments, just to diss. If u want to compare someone do it right. GGGB came around the same time as Timbalands or T-pain’s album. These are huge artist and Rihanna has done a better job in the US and overseas. Most of her concert were sold out in Europe and the reviews over there were great. Did Rihanna put herself in Beyonce, Alicia or Whitney’s level, or are people doing that?? I know that Rihanna said herself that she is still learning and needs to improve and looks up to those people. If U want to compare Rihanna, compare her to people who are also just like her 3 years in the business. If U do that, you’ll see is doing a great job !!!

I agree with @167. People are saying really quick, the bitch can’t sing. We’ll did you here her live ?? I did and she sounded great. She really has improved, because I have also seen the not so good live performances. And she chooses to sing live, probably because she knows she can, unlike Britney spears for example. And she sure can sing !! I know I heard Beyonce a long time ago (DC time) and I was shocked they sounded well how can I say it nice, not so good. I heard Beyonce in May at her concert and she was amazing, so much improved. So I will give Rihanna a break.

Rihanna sure can sing………as for Britney I don’t know, I never heard her live, so will not judge. I have only seen her lip sinc on tv

For all you hating heffas just REMEMBER whos opening for who, yeah thats what i thought ciara is OPENING for rhianna.

colored is good. She has a quality personal profile at interracialloves.com - free community for black and white meeting.

Ne-Yo’s a bitch and Kels should be suing him for running to every radio jock that would listen

#156 you are so right, it’s like that once the hateration starts.

Fuck all you haters I dont hear any of you complainig about Paris Hilton and her sister got $500.000 to say happy new year at some club over the holiday. It seems that black ppl have a problem when other black ppl makes money, but not when white ppl do the same . Willy lynch at work.

@ 164 you must be on drugs she perform for a college crown at some university in Texas and she got $80,000 so why would she perform for $ 20,000

uh ya Ken, the RKelly hate is damn strong. and it has nothing to do with jealousy.

and on rihanna? i mean, the $$/attn she’s receiving speaks for itself. these artists are who the 2007 teeny-boppers like. if you’re above the age of 17 (which i assume most of yall are), why are yall even wasting the time arguing? hell, i used to loooooooooove some Backstreet Boys - a group a lot of people over the age of 16 or 17 couldn’t stand! and they sold millions cus everyone 12-16 was buying their albums. it’s all about the masses.

just find comfort in knowing that your personal taste requires more than jingles and boring hooks to make you a fan, wish the girl luck or not (500Gs or more, that aint what you get after your shrieks in the shower), and keep it movin.

Rkelly needs to sit down.

Everybody’s been saying that Ciara outshines Rihanna on her own tour. Enough said. Rihanna will be a has been just like Ashanti and so many others with no talent.

Good for Eddie and Tracey. Hope he treats her well.

Gold digger, tracy…

bittersweettttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt, you’re gonna get the best of me…..
I love Kanye….the song is the truth…

Question you guys: i havent been here that long, so what does a stan means?

“there are so many talented girls out there and only skinny ass bitches are famous im sorry but that is the truth”

Rhianna isn’t skinny. I think we’ve got one to many fatties on this board.

“i dont know wat rihanna has done to BLACK PEOPLE that they are treating her like OSAMA BIN LADEN. explain that to me, DID RIHANNA BLOW UP THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY WITH C4 OR SOMETHING? THE GIRL IS TREATED LIKE A TERRORIST. ”

I hate to say it but Caribbean chicks get hated big time. Jealousy is a b*tch!!

I’ll give Rihanna $20 for a lap dance……that’s about all the rain I can make

“Dnt get all excited, according to the article, that was pretty cheap considering george michael did a performance for 3.3million…they got her becuz she charges practically nothin..hahah…thats more than i have in my pocket but still, still aint doing big things…”

DA or DUH…Don’t ever let see you internet high-fiving anyone on this site because JHUD got 60k to perform somewhere. I remember when that article was posted you all were so proud of her. Now, it is Rhianna’s turn you want to dismiss 500k as if it is nothing? Hypocrites.

Well all i can say about the Neyo situation is that R. Kelly gave one hell of a performance in Charleston SC! Cant say that the concert lacked any without NEYO but Im sure NEYO did a great job, cuz I love a couple of his latest songs. Hopefully they work it out

That was wrong how R. Kelly did Ne-Yo. I hope everything works out for Ne-Yo.

Rihanna… I don’t know why anyone would pay to see her in concert. Seriously, the girl cannot sing and we have all seen the same pitiful performance of umbrella on youtube.

Eddie and Tracy. Wow. I can’t say anything good about getting married–divorced—and re-married. What makes them think it is going to work this time?

I had the pleasure of attending the R.Kelly concert on New Year’s Eve in Miami. And you guys can say what you want about Robert, but the man puts on a show! I would not have mind seeing Ne-Yo, but I spent over 90 dollars to see R. Kelly only! He performed over 2 1/2 hours and did hit after hit. He was phenomenal and if you ever get a chance to see him in concert you must do it. Keyshia Cole was also great, and it was a plus that Diddy came to perform on stage with her.

Rihanna is needs to stop wearing those dominatrix outfits on stage…other than that i lover her style.

Celeb’s get married so fast these days, didn’t she just split with babyface!?

SMDH @ those hating on Rihanna’s payday. She got that in 40 mins. Most of you wont earn that much in your lifetime!

I will repeat what I just said because I dont think it is posted. Many African Americans hate on black people that come here, work hard and succeed. Call me an immigrant or whatever the fuck you want. So what if you have been here all your life? In one year, I make more money than your mother and yourself will see in a lifetime. You have been here all your life and what have you acocmplished in that time? Not a damn thing! So fuck you!

I recently attended the R. Kelly Concert in Miami on New Year’s Eve. R. Kelly’s performance was outstanding! There’s no way in the world Ne-Yo performed better than him! No Way! Big Up R. Kelly!

tracy ia a beard and she’s willing to do it. Johnny Gill will accept anything because he needs a place to stay. Spice got what she deserves trying to trap a man .remember at the time ahe was a broke bloke.
Rhi is the flavor of the month. lets hope she does not go out like Be and tina: selling out to directtv.

191 Umm no Bey is not selling out to direct t.v. Direct t.v. are just doing what Pepsi, Armani, Loreal, Amex and all the other million advertisements that are asking for Beyonce to endorse their product. She’s number 1 on the list and is highest in demand so how is it selling out if they are asking her? Please if you had the chance to make what she makes you would probably endorse Burger King if they asked you. SMH Don’t hate on Bey because she is in more demand than anybody.

Anyway I hope Neyo works things out.

Rihanna is the next Ashanti just like others have said. She doesn’t have longevity like Alicia, Beyonce, Mary, and so on. That’s what happens when you have a pretty face but no talent to back it up.

Congrats to Eddie and Tracey on their marriage. Let’s see how long this lasts.

PERFECT HOT COUPLE. LUCKY GIRL, AND LUCKY GUY

@Bajan: Dont EVER disrespect the uber talented Lauryn Hill. She is not on drugs.

I dont think Ri is more well known internationally than MJB. MJB has been in the game for 27 years. She’sperformed in not just Eu but Afr S afr) as well.

Other than your crack LH comments, I agree w all that u;ve said.

I hope Neyon gets the $785k plus lawyer’s fees.

Lock up Rkelly’s pedofile *ss already !

Congrats Ri. Dont worry about the haters. You got your album sales $, your concert tour $, your cover girl /umbrella endorsement $. U work hard & deserve it.

Tracey is soooo stupid & I’m so disgusted. After 1 year she has married him. Let the countdown begin.

Many members are discussing this topic on interracialloves.com, it is said that his fans created a blog for him on that page.

Damn Puffy performed with Keyshia. R. Kelly is a show to see he gives you your money worth.

NEYO IZ WACK AS HELL…..CHI TOWN STAND THA FUC UP…KELZ IZ THA KING OF R AND B HANDZ DOWN……AND FA YA INFO THa conCERT WAS BANGIN’….HAV U EVA EVEN HEARD KELZ IN CONCERT OR ON RECORD…FUC OUTTA HERE…….NEYO WILL NOT B HERE IN 2 YRS KELZ IZ ABOUT 18 AND COUNTING…….WITH CLASSICS….NAME A NEYO CLASSIC…..NON EXISTENT…JUS LIKE BLK FOLKZ……..HATE IS THE NEW LOVE……..U HEARD THE MAN SAY HE SUIN THE PROMOTERS….

- I’ve had the op. to see Ne-Yo perform 2-3 times and he doesnt have much stage appeal ; but that doesn’t take away from his artistry. But R. Kelly handled his business on stage.

- Rhi has only been in the game a short while and she has a good voice; her stage show may be a little weak but that can be worked on. If Ciara couldn’t dance, she wouldnt have half the fans she does now. Her performance makes up for where her vocals lack; same for Janet. Janet is a phenom. performer but honestly her vocal isn’t the strongest or the greatest.. she sings songs that fit her ability.

Let’s give Rhi some breathing room.. there are more important things going on in the world.

I think Eddie and Tracy make a good couple and are among the few of black hollywood that actually employ other black actors and actresses, so there’s a lot of money circulating between these two. A true power couple. Congrats!

Eddie has the funniest smirk on his face, like, “you wouldn’t even understand the type of money this union involves” as this man is a comedian first and foremost. lmao

I don’t care I don’t like Rihanna she’s fake. SHe also got a weird look figure. There I said it now waht

Who give a 2 cent about Rihanna. That girl was fake from the start. She can’t dance or Sing. Her career is going to be short. Please don’t compare Riahnna to Mya

For you Informantion Mya can sing and dance.
