When your vocal skill is on par with that of a tongueless mime, one must do what one has to do to keep one’s fans interested- at any cost.
Take Rihanna for example- with her latest movie ‘Battleship’ slipping and sliding on Box Office tallies worldwide and her latest LP ‘Talk That Talk’ yet to live up to its hype commercially, she turns to Esquire to do just what she does best.
Getting naked.
Snapped by Melissa Forde back in January, Riri posed for the publication’s July edition, sporting Rita Ora’s look and as per usual-not enough clothing.
More below…
Pick up the mag when it hits news stands June 4th.

Glad Chris has moved on from Rihanna. Yea Drake & Chris called it right. How would you like it if all these dudes and women telling you they had Rihhanna? After the remix that’s just what they did to both of them. I guess they both got angry and made that didd song. Chris does say in his remix that he’s tired of people coming to him about his ex who they had. That is why she blocked him because he was telling the truth.
But great news Chris gave Kae a 2 ban rings with dimonds all around both of them, and had a birthday cake sent from Maimi to L.A. OMG the cake is so nice. Glad he has moved on

The proof is Chris Brown “calling someone out” and she feeling guilty because she knows she gets round and respoding to it. Not to mention Russell Simmons basically throwing her under the bus too. Now where is the proof Beyonce is a whore?
Rihanna has been with:Omarion, Chris, Drake, Mike, Travis Barker, Rashard Lewis, Shia, Josh, and Ashton….the girl gets around.

LMAO the Navi is so delusional. She squeezed TTT with LOUD tour, she performed on Xfactor, award shows, talk shows, festivals etc…She promoted this album. She was on SNL and released WHYB and the album still decreased in sales this past week.

So..it’s ok for men to run around shirtless, grabbing their crotch but when Rihanna does it it’s not ok to the public eye. Evidently, it’s a total double standard! Rihanna is a beautiful young woman and she have the right to live, run around butt ass naked if she wants to. Those who likes to complain about her lack of ‘clothing’ u must be one jealous ass and insecure individual. Batttleship slipping?? Oh c’mon it was released in an International market almost a month prior to the U.S. release! The overseas total already cover the budget and overhead cost of the movie and whatever they make here plus DVD sales are their profits. Do u home Sam before u start running nonsenses!

For Battleship to be a success, the movie would have to bring in 6-$700mil. Mind you they thought Battleship would do at least 350mill overseas but it fell short to barely 200mil. What movie would want to just cover the budget of $250 mil.
XYZ had the real breakdown of what Battleship should bring in.

4 with its horny aroma scent is well above 2.5mill. And I don’t thnk it was a “flop”.
A “flop” is when you could’ve slayed the shit, but you messed everything up.
Unlike 4.
4 was wery well promoted. About 5 huge live performances. A 4-night concert that was aired on TV. 3 singles, 3 promo/urban-only singles, all being the best single choices, and all with videos. Plus, another video for a deluxe track, and 4 live videos. A documentary video.
It was heavily promoted but DIDN’T SELL MORE THAN TWO AND A HALF MILLION COPIES, WHICH IS NOT BAD AT ALL.
I still don’t find the “flop” part.
