Must See: Rihanna’s Controversial Esquire Interview

Published: Sunday 3rd Jun 2012 by Sam

Since the genesis of her career, Rihanna has been renown for her horrible vocals. Yet, more recent times have also seen the model’s public persona take a turn for the worse.

Be it genuine or a calculated attempt to legitimate her “bad gyal” gimmick, something is up. A fact underlined in her recent interview with Esquire magazine.

Initially another Ms. Fenty interview by the numbers, the feature took a dramatic turn when her musical reunion with ex Chris Brown was brought up.

See what we mean after the jump…

Esquire: What has been the Twitter response to the Chris Brown remixes?

Rihanna: Some love it, some hate it, some love it but hate that we did it. But the response in the end has been incredible.

Was that [the recording session] the first time you’d seen him in a while?

When would we have seen each other? We’ve both been working and touring. [changes the subject]. This is really good food.

It proved quite a controversial thing.

Well…definitely. Definitely. It caught me a little off-guard to be honest…especially the amount of…negative attention. Because it never occurred to me how this was a problem, you know. It really didn’t.

Because enough time had passed that it was OK?

I thought people were gonna be surprised that we finally did a record together, but I didn’t see how people could think it was a bad thing, you know? In my mind, it was just music.

Some people felt it sent the wrong message.

[Angrily] What was that? What message would that be?

You’d gone back to someone who put you in the hospital?

[Getting angry] Oh really? Did I?

Well… yes

Did I? Did I? Did I?

You went and recorded with him, yes.

Ok. In a completely professional environment. And on a complete professional note. I mean, if I went back to him [as a girlfriend], then that’s a whole different discussion. And if I ever do, then that’s something that y’all have to talk to me about when -if- that ever happens. Until then, look at it for what it is. I think a lot of people jumped to an assumption that was incorrect and they ended up looking stupid.

The assumption you were dating again?

Because of a song. How stupid. If I was together with every collaborator I worked with… fuck my life

Still, the lyrics didn’t do much to dispel that impression. His opening line is “Girl I want to fuck you right now/been a long time/I’ve been missing your body”. You reply “Remember how you did it/If you still want to kiss it/Then come and get it”

That was the tone before he was even on the record. You think it was going to about hopscotch or jump rope?

So neither of you for a minute thought “This is going to put the cat among the pigeons”?

I could never see anything wrong with making music

Maybe the thing is that as an artist your personal and private life are intertwined, and you’ve already played on this. The first song you put out after the beating incident was “Love the Way You Lie”, about domestic violence

Absolutely. But LTWYL was me as an artist working with Eminem as an artist, telling our stories individually. On a track together. I’m lost. I’m confused as to what you’re trying to get at.

That it’s hard to separate the person who’s been the victim of domestic violence and the pop star singing about domestic violence

I know. And that’s how fucked up society is. There’s a lot of shit y’all can’t get over. Y’all holding your breath on a lot of stuff that doesn’t matter. When you realize who you live for, and who’s important to please, a lot of people will actually start living. I am never going to get caught up in that. I’m gonna look back on my life and say that I enjoyed it – and I lived it for me- and God. This is turning into a tacky interview. What do you really want to talk about? I’m not here to [talk] about messy shit.

It’s just what’s been making the headlines recently

OK! So do you want to talk about everything on Google? Or do you want to talk about stuff that my fans want to know? Let’s get to the real stuff. The stuff that’s important.

What do your fans want to know

You tell me, as a journalist. You’re asking the questions and I give you the answers. I can’t give the questions too.

I’m sorry it’s upset you

It hasn’t upset me. It upsets me that you keep asking the same kind of questions about stuff that’s trivial. What’s there to talk about? Are all your questions like that? Let’s move onto the next one.

It’s just that you haven’t given an interview for a while. A lot has happened

You think I haven’t given an interview for a while? I did four this morning

Did they go any better than this?

We’ll see [when they come out] tomorrow.

****************

Easily the the funniest thing we’ve seen this side of her last tour! Granted the Chris Brown slant needs to be wrapped already (it’s been 3 years), the interviewer deserves kudos a plenty for “going there…and staying there”.

It’s one thing when you’ve fervently guarded your private life and present a compelling enough product to not warrant attention “beyond the expected norm”, like say Beyonce. Yet, as the interviewer potently pointed out, Rih’s career has thrived on scandal (in the absence of any discernible  talent). Hence it’s both shocking and insulting that she takes such offence when probed on it – especially when a “next question” would have sufficed.

She can’t have her cake and lick the icing off too.

    • josh June 3, 2012

      Now I see why Chris won’t do anymore interviews. I think Rihanna handled that quit well. This is what she should have done in 2009 20/20 but hay,

      • LIFE June 3, 2012

        I CALL BULLSH-T!!! RIHANNA NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND THAT SHE PUT OUT THERE HER MUSIC IS ABOUT HER EXPERIENCES & WHAT SHE BEEN THROUGH! NOTHING ELSE. SHE’S TALKING SH-T & HONESTLY I FEEL SHE’S QUITE EMBARRASSED ABOUT HOW SHE’S RUINED CHRIS’S CAREER!!! SHE WANTS HIM EITHER AS FRIEND OR MAN, BUT HE AIN’T GIVING HER SH-T! KARMA GOT THE B-TCH… SHE’S THE PERSON WHO WAS DOING INTERVIEWS/CAMPAIGNS AGAINST THE WHOLE ”CATCH A FADE” INCIDENT… SHE WEAK AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT!!! THE BAD GIRL ACT IS PLAYED OUT MADGE DID IT AND DID WELL. RIHANNA NEEDS TO RELEVANT BECAUSE MUSICALLY SHE’S NOT THERE!!!

  2. LAX June 3, 2012

    This is one hot number now watch the haters try and
    make something out of it.

  3. That’s Right! June 3, 2012

    Rihanna is dumb.

    • Lax June 3, 2012

      But shes rich & famous

      • GagaSlaysYaFav June 3, 2012

        That doesn’t justify s***. Some of the wealthiest people are the dumbest.

  4. mobwife June 3, 2012

    YOU SOUND LIKE A FOOL @TGJ!

    The interviewer deserves a boot in ths A$$ for trying to grill her about ONE 3 YEAR OLD fight! WTF is there left to say? The only reason the society goes on about these two is that they are BLACK, YOUNG & WEALTHY! If he wanted to discuss LTWYL then talk to EMINEM ABOUT HIS MANY YEARS OF BEATING THE SH*T OUT OF HIS WIFE KIM MATHERS! That is an actual case of DOMESTIC VIOLENCE! Chris and Rihanna had 1 t*** altercation!

    I’M NOT A FAN OF RIHANNA (& WILL NEVER BE) BUT, SHE HANDLED THIS MOTHERF***ER BEAUTIFULLY! Although she should have shut him down much sooner!

    • wendy June 3, 2012

      No she couldn’t have shut it down because their was big monies involved half n*** pictures and all, so they feel that they are paying her well enough to answer those questions

      • mobwife June 3, 2012

        LOL You do have a point! I’m just confused as to why she or like her handlers, allowed this interviewer to go this far when her handlers abruptly escorted her out of an interview in Australia when the interviewer asked her a simple question about Ashton Ketcher (sp?)! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Again, Yeezy *shrug*

    • LIFE June 3, 2012

      B****. RIHANNA MADE THAT 3YEARS AGO SH-T ABOUT HER LIFE… SHE NEVER LET IT GO REMEMBER!!! IT WAS HER IN THE INTERVIEWS, NOT CHRIS.

      • mobwife June 3, 2012

        S*** W****,

        I don’t even know WTF you just said. You and your illogical rambling! Are you angry because they questioned her? Are you angry because she got angry about being questioned? Are you angry because her lips once again parted to speak about Chris Brown? Or are you angry that the interviewer questioned her about that 3 yr old bullsh**? Which is it? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  5. Viciousss June 3, 2012

    DEAD at “Did they turn out better than this?” They ripped her ass, props to Esquire. They got her to strip and show off her titties (not a tough job) and STILL laid her of in the interview. Smh.

    I’ve lost so much respect for her over the years and this interview just made her look like a moron. So you record multiple songs on domestic violence and put that boy’s ass in the song or video everyway you can, but then you’re surprised people thought he was f****** you when you did the cake song? Chile, boo. You can’t have it both ways and that’s what’s hitting her hard. Then the very same man dissed an easy girl in a song and YOU think it’s about you so what’s this ‘artist from the person’ b******* RiRi?

    Dumb dumb dumb girl. No wonder Jay Z setting Rita up, he can see his old money maker is about to have her Britney Spears moment in a few more months.

    • HeavyHeavy June 3, 2012

      I think she just needs a break from this life for a bit as this is something she’s never had in her career.

    • Really? June 3, 2012

      Have to agree with you on that one – if it was old news she wouldn’t need to keep rehashing it and hinting at it in her songs. If she had moved on from it in her music the interviewer wouldnt have a leg to stand on as it has been 3 yrs. The truth is she knows it sells, put it in a song and people will lap it up, but when it comes to actually talking about it – having a conversation – thats too personal. Rihanna likes to be in control yet shes losing it, once you’ve gone down this path – where else is left to go.

      • wendy June 3, 2012

        Did it ever occur to ya’ll that the incident was not all it was said from the media. I seen some great photoshoped pictures made up of Rihanna & Chris like if they were dating so why can’t it be done for the 2009 picture. I believe Rihanna know that this is not what happen 2009 but she was told by her handles to go along for pitty fame and it worked.

        I never forgot when they were to VA and he was talking to his fans and Rihanna slapped the s*** out Chris that it was all over the airwaves of how she slap him and made his face RED.

      • mobwife June 3, 2012

        @wendy

        DING DING DING give this girl a GOLD STAR! Of course the story given to the media was scripted! Rihanna admitted to beating on him 1st after breaking into his cell phone reading a text from another female and confronting him after that female called him on their drive home! I’m so tired of this story and the RACIST AMERICAN media trying to place her as the eternal victim & Chris the eternal villian because of 1 teenage fight from 3 years ago! They were kids, this is f*ckign crazy to me.

        I remember seening that video on Youtube!

      • Steven June 3, 2012

        The interviewer said that Chris beat her and put her in the hospital. There are no records of Rihanna being in the hospital bed only in the ER which is the norm. Rihanna getting upset because when the interviewer said she was put in the hospital she most likely don’t remember what was said in 2009 because she went along with what she was told to do blame Chris and your career will be set in stone.

    • Lax June 3, 2012

      Sooooooooo

      • Really? June 3, 2012

        @mobwife Rihanna probably did ht him first – she has that type of peronality. Its not right for anyone to hit anyone male or female but regardless of wheher she hit him first or not – she didnt deerve that beat down – I think drugs & alcohol were involved tbh but thats still not an excuse! Either way the issue was not what happened – it was whether or not it was old news or not and therefore is a valid topic to be brought up in an interview or not. I think its old news but Rihanna keeps it relevant by referring to it in her songs and making money of it – a lot – her and Chris Brown never needed to have anything to do with each other again but either Ri or her management knew the controversy would be a huge money making opportunity – and thats her job at the end of the day to make money – so if she is going to exploit the issue she cannot deny or stop tacky reporters from doing so. Examples include “We found love in a hopeless place” and more recently the Princess of China song lyrics. She should have left it out of her music if she didnt want to be asked about it. I like Rihanna – feel sorry for what happened to her but this is the plain truth unfortunately. But shes young she will learn and has some growing to do – who doesnt?

  6. HAHAHAHAHAH June 3, 2012

    LOVE IT!!! lol Who is this journalist? Amazing.

  7. S****** Blonde June 3, 2012

    The interviewer is an asshole, good for Rihanna, why do people care so much for celebrities private life, i mean get over it, they’re not gonna do what you want they to do, they could care less about what the world think of them, they are rich and they want to live their life, f******, drinking, getting high ect, ect. enjoy what they do with their Music and stop worry about their asses.

    • mobwife June 3, 2012

      I totally agree! Funny how the media harps on some ppl and their lives while never discussing the tour fights, drug addictions, wife/husband beatings, child abuse/neglect, alcoholism, etc of others!

      I will say it again, had Chris & Rihanna resembled JUSTIN BIEBER & SELENA GOMEZ this story would have stayed in 2009!

  8. muhaha June 3, 2012

    well. can we put that to rest. we all know about the cake. their staged lyrics didn’t do it with their background. professionally she’s a bit wise since then.

    cut

  9. sashay June 3, 2012

    So Rihanna is ridicule for continually talking and according to some profiting from the Chris Brown incident. and we have an interview where she doesn’t want to talk about it ..however still she’s wrong.. she just can’t win with some of you…Just goes to show and why she lives her live according to her rules., you just can’t please everyone…so just do you.

    • Steven June 3, 2012

      But her fans said that talking about the incidentt in interviews and her songs was good and making her heal. Now it’s a different story. Watch people aboard will fugure out the 2009 incident was fake also.

  10. I remember June 3, 2012

    Rihanna has been walked thru more than the subway……….. She like giving up that cake cake cake cake

  11. X,Y,”and Z” June 3, 2012

    Well, we now know one thing for sure, her acting career is off to a less-than-spectacular start – It’s official: The very Movie Studio that made ‘Battleship’ now calls it “AN UNFORTUNATE, LARGE MISS” (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/comcast-ceo-universal-battleship-332158)

    “Comcast chairman and CEO Brian Roberts on Friday called Battleship, released by the Universal Pictures unit of the cable giant’s entertainment arm NBCUniversal, an “unfortunate, large miss,”

    Mr. Roberts continues “But the current quarter has been negatively affected by the “unfortunate, large miss in Battleship and another one in The Five-Year Engagement,” he said. “We’ll have a negative quarter at NBCUniversal,” driven partly by the two flops, Roberts said, which will leave first-half financials flat to slightly down but right around where the company had expected — except for the effect of the Battleship flop.”

    Usually, it’d be “three strikes and you’re out”, but after giving Rihanna an $400/$450-Million stage, and placing her face and name squarely in the middle – under white-hot spotlights – whereby making HER “the face of ‘Battleship'”, and now failing so badly, it’ll only take one more “under-performing” film to end any hopes of her ever again appearing in a movie. The walls are closing in on Rihanna:

    1.) Chris Brown doesn’t want her. Look at how she ALMOST ended his career!
    2.) Matt Kemp can’t be seen with her. After they “made it public”(after being seen on that boat in Mexico), it ALL then went down-hill for Matt Kemp.
    3.) Nicki Minaj is the new “IT GIRL”.
    4.) Rita Ora is now luxuriating, and flourishing, in the comforts of Jay-Z’s attention.
    5.) Rihanna’s first role ON A BIG STAGE, $400/$450-Million ‘Battleship’ is now a certified complete and utter disaster-at-sea.

    Enjoy what little sunlight remains, Rihanna/Camp-Fenty. An “eternity of nights” now fast removes the days.

    • Really? June 3, 2012

      Oh come on Beyonce sucks at acting too but is still a big megastar. Plus when has the success of a whole movie depended on one star??? Surely if the script writting and directing and rest of the cast were up to much it wouldnt have been that bad? Its a little early to be closing the curtains on Rihanna IMO.

  12. YouDoRealize… June 3, 2012

    I have to have a big bro to lil sis moment with Robyn F****** Rihanna Fenty. Rihanna wake the f*** up. Clearly you recorded with this man after he almost near put you in a coma. Ofcourse people are going to ask you questions you dumb bunny. After that whole baby bump crisis with Bey did she do any interviews about it? From that point on except for Katie C she kept quiet. She didn’t do interviews and then expect to not be questioned. Rihanna, when you put your LIFE on tumblr, twiiter, instagram, and work with people who have did you incredibly dirty don’t expect to not be questioned. Yeah your personally life is yours blah blah s*** but your not an everyday girl. You are Rihanna everyone knows you. So when you do some stupid s*** expect everyone to smell it and complain about the smell. When you sneeze expect everyone to ask if you have h*****. Hey it might be tuff but that’s the price for being rich and famous. Now work on your artistry and maybe just maybe people will ask you about your next project and not if you f***** Ashton Kurcher.

    • X,Y,”and Z” June 3, 2012

      @youdorealize – re: “after he almost near put you in a coma.”

      “Coma”..?!

      Who? Where? When?!

      Do tell! Because you couldn’t be talking about Feb 8th, 2009. Because on THAT evening, according to TMZ:

      “Sources say Rihanna was the first one to strike — slapping and striking Brown “numerous times” while he was driving, after seeing the text message from another woman. And Rihanna was fighting Brown. We’re told much of this is reflected in the official police report based on what Rihanna told cops.”

      And, had Rihanna had flew-off into her jealous-fueled rage, then attacking Chris, then caused him to lose control of that vehicle, then causing an in-an-instant-life-changing accident, what THEN would’ve been your thoughts on the matter? The possible results of her actions are such: life-altering, and possibly lethal.

      Your “gifts” for hyperbole, drama, and sensationalism are duly noted, Sir!

      X,Y,”and Z”

    • mobwife June 3, 2012

      See and that’s where idiots who don’t think for themselves go wrong! Rihanna was no where near placed in a coma or IN THE HOSPITAL hence the “Oh really? Did I?” comments!

        Very nice photoshop picutres of Chris & Rihanna so what makes you think it was not done in 2009 picture of her face as someone pointed out on this post. After she was seen jet skying with Chris which the media cut Rihanna picture out to make it look like Chris had no heart in the matter.

      • Steven June 3, 2012

        @YOUDOREALIZE

        Rlihanna was jet skying after the incident. Why did the media cut her picture out? Is it because her face was not like what the media posted? Many questions and this interviewer get a thumb ups.

    RIHANNA IS A BUMB B I T C H

    RIHANNA DOES THINGS FOR ATTENTION AND CONTROVERSY AND THEN WHEN SHE GETS GRILLED ON IT SHE TRIES TO BE DEFENSIVE

    LET’S KEEP IT REAL

    RIHANNA MADE AN ENTIRE ALBUM ABOUT BEING A VICTIM “RATED R” AND THEN CRIED ON A SONG “LTWYL” BUT SAYS THAT SHE DOESN’T WANT TO BE LABLED AS A “VICTIM”

    THEY HAD EVERY WRITE TO ASK HER THOSE QUESTIONS BECAUSE AS SHE SAID , THOSE ARE THE THINGS HER FANS REALLY CARE ABOUT.

    This b**** needs to grow up and quickly.

    She is 24 years old acting like she is 16. When is she going to take accountability for her actions and stop acting like the world is against her. She has built a career on controversy and now that it is backfiring she wants to be all defensive. The ENTIRE world thinks that she is a stupid s*** for going back to a man that beat her to a pulp EVEN IF IT WAS JUST FOR A SONG.

    Her attitude is very cocky and rude now. She has definitely been smelling herself a bit too much. I don’t understand why tho because the sales of TTT and her reign as “Singles Queen” is OVER.

    This is just another episode of Rihanna pulling the plug on her own career.

    I miss the “Loud Era” where she pretended to be so bubbly and happy. I understand that she is a fake Madonna and wants to “re-invent” herself every era but the TTT “image” is so sloppy.

    She looks dirty, talks trashy, acts like a s***, and worst of all is proud of herself. People need to realize that we STILL don’t’ know who Rihanna is because every era she manages to change her ENTIRE personality. She needs to be in a straight jacket if you ask me because all these personalities is just weird.

    While I dont always agree on negative things being brought up I must give credit to the interviewer for sticking with the topic at hand, I hate that Rihanna gets offended when they are all up in her ass about profiting on the 2009 incident in her songs and then the Navy have the nerve to bash chris! I still dont believe that pic that was leaked to TMZ something aint right but yeah we should not focus on 3 years ago. The reason this b**** irritates me is the fact she overplayed being the victim and made money on that and everyone claims its speaking out against DV? give me a f****** break!

    • mobwife June 3, 2012

      WELL SAID! 🙂

      Dv is a repeated action not 1 t*** fight! The media knows this but will use Chris & Rihanna (who has willingly played the vicim for 3 years now) until ADULT’S IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY STAND UP & STOP IT!

      Truth be told it was said that the picture of her face was given to the police the next morning by Rihanna’s PR team. I think this is why Chris got new dancers beause the olds ones wanted to tell the truth but the courts blocked their statement

If you’re gonna do a song with him why do that song of all the other songs on the album? The more interviews she does the dumber she sounds. Girl bye!

Funny how she’s such a ‘bad girl’ and can be snappy with interviewers and ‘clapback’ to people on twitter, but her ‘bad girl’ self couldn’t ‘clapback’ and evidently mute, when she was been called for being a w**** by drake, chris n meek lolololol.. Anyways she’s more known for a beatdown then talent, so i don’t know what I’m expecting from a runover.

You guys get so upset when people bring up Rihanna’s private life yet go around worrying whether or not Beyonce really did or didn’t have a baby. Pot meet kettle, again!

    • Lax June 3, 2012

      You stfu because you or the ones who stated that she needed to stop
      talking about it in interviews. Either way i hope that this
      will end the chris and rihanna saga and we can all turn the page.
      This is old news and the interview did not score jack s*** for bring it up shyt let it go and rihsnna has a right to answere or not to answere, and besides that whos going to check Rihanna????

      • NATURALBEAUTY June 3, 2012

        I like Rihanna, love her on Twitter. Just not all of the Navy. Matter fact I ALWAYS DEFEND Rihanna when it comes to Chris Brown & his immature ways. I just hate when the Navy brings up “fake baby” then get mad when we comment on the s*** Rihanna posts on Twitter & Instagram.

      • wendy June 3, 2012

        Sorry but Rihanna HAD to answer those questions. Stripping & that Interview is how she is getting paid

    • Lax June 3, 2012

      People can bring up what thry want to bring up. People always got something
      to say it can be positive or negative but they or still saying
      something about her and most of the time its negative as all get out, excuses, excuses, excuses to find a way to be negative toward her.

    this S*** is CRAY.

    that Interviewer DID It , like really , he DID it !! BEST interview EVER.

    and she sound so Dumb By the way , whenever he had he ass whipped she give him the ” making music” tasteless excuse , i’m so over what happened in 2009 , f*** them Both , but Do NOT fool YOUR heart , YOUR Fans and Non-fans as well and call it ” making Music” !

    i do appreciate she’s REAL Tho. i have always liked that about her , but that “interview” showed HER fans the Not-cool side of RIHANNA.
    oh and about “Making MUsic” , dear Rihanna , YOU lost fans because of this “CB” remix , i hope you are happy.
    and :

    “Birthday Cake ” album version >>>>>>> Birthday cake ” remix”

    the song was just BAD BAD BAD with CB in it. bad to a painful way !!!
    it was just a publicity stunt and it BACK-fired !! K ?
    and IDGAF at this point if they are meeting or F****** with each other , but don’t Milk the story of him F****** your face for 3 years till we got bored and felt sorry for your BEATEN ass and after that you go ” professionally” and do a song with him and make it out as if the people who sympathized with you for 3 years were wrong and that they ” don’t let you live your life as you want ” , you addressed the incident every f****** time in 3 years , k ?
    made an album about it , k ?
    you sat there and looked as if you represent the victims of domestic violence , k ?
    and ppl actually believed you , k ?
    and you made it the main cause of your life ON T.V , ok ?
    then you spitted on their faces with your “CB” remix , K ?
    that’s schizophrenia !! Rihanna ” the person” should be in coordination with Rihanna ” the pop star”. especially if what happened to rihanna ” the person” affected rihanna ” the pop star” Deeply and vice versa. you can’t separate the two like that to the point the two Rihannas do opposite s*** . one is getting beaten ” the person” and the other wanna have s** with her beater ” the pop star” , WTF is that dear rihanna ?
    that’s mind-F****** anyone who care about you and a spit on their face as well !!!
    and this is the last time i’m talking about this stupid situation of Cb and rih. F*** them both. they just want s** and they attack anyone who give them a decent advice for THEIR life …..
    that’s what do you expect from such Cocky , dumb , non-mature s**-driven young Celebs.

      WORD.

  28. ADELE June 3, 2012

    It’s her private life yet she tries to make it public at every turn. This woman is nothing but a media w**** who would do any and everything to stay relevant. She tries being tough, but a tough chick would never have a man beat her ass, then turn around and go back to him. Then 3 years later befriend this person. Then this person disrespect her by calling her a w**** to million. This broad is an industry w**** who would stop at nothing to get what she wants, and she’s finally getting called out by people in the industry. So happy that movie of her’s sank like the Titanic. Now brag about that navy.

  29. Stephen June 3, 2012

    What I liked about the interview is that she is reasonably articulate. But I think that this site should stop the constant mentioning of Beyonce’s name in every Rihanna post and vice versa. It’s becoming childish

  30. Viciousss June 3, 2012

    And one more thing:

    Please leave acting alone Rihanna. All this repeating what the person said and going “Did I? Did I?” is fine for your sad little bad girl singer image, but all it shows is that you’d break down CRYING if you got the kind of interview questions actors get. That’s when they ask you the real s*** and no movie studio wants you embarrassing them like you did with Battleship. The sad thing is RiRi has done so little ain’t a damn thing to talk about.

    She don’t want to talk about Ashton.
    She SURE don’t want to talk about Chris.
    Battleship is a flop, her album is sliding down the charts and her weave gets changed more than her underwear. All she does is drink, party, wall around half naked and smoke blunts.

    Interviewers are runnin out of s*** to talk to her about and that’s why she’s mad. Because past Chris and her s** life ain’t a damn thing interesting.

    • Lax June 3, 2012

      No matter what shes not giving acting up she has great acting chops.
      What you do is you give her up because shes not begging you
      to like, love or log on to a post on her at all.

  31. JER June 3, 2012

    PULEASE you fave never would call B******* on a f****** B******* interview like this. They obviously prepped her for different questions. She read the HELL OUT of that interviewer “oh i did 4 this morning” READ IT HONEY! Yal BeYAWNce stans stay pressed like Rihanna said. Riding hard on s*** that happend 3 years ago and has been talked about a million times since.

    How about asking her about Battleship? Doing more movies? Is she gonna be dancing more in her performances? Are there any collaborations on the horizon? Does seeing BeYAWNce have a baby make her want one? Is there a re-release in the making? a new album? What’s the next single? When’s the next tour?

    ARE YOU TELLING ME THEY COULDN’T COME UP WITH NOTHING BESIDES TALKING ABOUT CHRIS BROWN. Disrespectful.

    • YUMADTHO June 3, 2012

      Why would they bring up Battleship if it’s flopping? It’s called damage control especially when the production called it a flop. That would be embarrassing. I’m sure Rihanna would be dreading the Battleship questions. Is it Beyonce’s fault that when they interview her she doesn’t have to call b******* cause they know specifically what they can & cannot ask her. They never get out of line with Beyonce for a reason. The last question they asked Bey that was “controversial” was about the fake baby rumors, she replied by saying they were stupid rumors & they left the topic alone. Rihanna made a song with the man who beat her, why wouldn’t they ask her about that? The timing is correct. Why would they ask Riri questions about Beyonce tho lmao? Love how you call Bey BeYAWNce, I’ll hold back from calling your fav R****** tho.

  34. Really? June 3, 2012

    You all hold so much hate for someone you’ve never met. One thing to have an opinion another to be thriving on venom and bile. Is spreading hate on blogs paying your bills? Say what you want about Rihanna but I bet her pay cheque bigger than yours. She made one movie that flopped so what there are many entertainers out there with at least one dud in their vault who are still going. Plus have any of you actually seen the movie yet?…Probably etter to reserve judgement until you do unless you like being sheep. I for one dont always agree with the critics opinions most are old and out of touch any way.

  36. Katie June 3, 2012

    You mean that Dumb B*tch got handled like that in an interview and she didnt even know?!!!
    I like when he told her personal and professional life is intertwined. Thats the absolute truth. But that is all Rihanna’s doing, just for the attention and to put on that fake bad girl persona.
    She continues to put her private life out there on twitter with those nasty n*** pics, and when she’s smoking marijuana. How can you make your PRIVATE life so public and not want to be questioned about it?
    she will not stop because she likes ATTENTION. In the interview she really comes across like the dumb broad she is.
    She did the remix with chris Brown just to get ATTENTION again and then he repay her by calling her a w****. That girl is just a big hot pile of mess!

  37. WHUT June 3, 2012

    OH she READ him into the DEEPEST PART of the ABYSS!!!!!!!!!

    I MEAN the PART where Fossil-yonce’s 4closed album LINGERS!!!!!!!! KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!

    “You tell me, as a journalist. You’re asking the questions and I give you the answers. I can’t give the questions too.”

    AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! READDDDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!!!!!!! LIFEEEE!!!!!!!!!!

    Look I was NEVER here and I have still not listened to EITHER of those remixes cause really, they just didn’t make it LICK of sense and I expressed that s***, but AT THIS POINT this bum was simply trying to get a hit interview.

    RIh is OVER IT and she EVEN got slayed by some of ha own fans on twitter and eventually submitted that the s*** was a mistake. The fans who were pressed are OVER IT like Fossil-yonce’s age ago and MOST IMPORTANTLY the s*** NEVER saw an Itunes chart release EVER whereas “Where has the LORD THY GOD Been” did and is now POSITIONING ITSELF to SLAY.

    What is it top 4 Itunes?? Top 11 BB100???

    FUN TIP. You know if you add 2 zeroes to that 11 you’d AUTOMATICALLY know End of Time’s chart position Without having to look?? KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!

    • ADELE June 4, 2012

      TTT is flopping to, so whats your point. Beyonce did not make a deal with top 40 radio stations to play her songs. Maybe if she did her songs would have gone higher. Before you say it’s a lie, it was all over the internet around the time Rihanna went crazy back in December that Def Scam made a deal. Also, don’t forget the huge flop which was Battleship. The biggest flop for a big budget movie in history.

  40. Lax June 3, 2012

    Rihanna is over the shyt and it is news to many ears, and many or pissy
    because what was is all over done and now she is turned the page and shes on her grind. To those who don’t like it you can lump it because nobody cares. And by now
    you know very well that you can talk until yo booty falls off and she will still be doing
    it her way. I don’t sweat the small things like all of the negative crap but it is good to
    say you do not matter a dam in the final anaylsis because she have got a well greased machine and she pays them well to keep things lined up and on track for her while shes a champ at doing her own heavy lifting.

    And since she can’t seem to pour p*** out of a boot i wonder why do those who
    dislike her even care and who do they follow her every move? Why do you who
    dislike/hates her even care? Who in the hell follows closely behind some one the dislike in each and every way? Oh i know its because shes a mega artist and she
    keeps things interesting now don’t she? She has carefully made many of you loose booty bytches lose yo cool so many time. I mean you talk about her around the clock and you can’t stand her why do you log on? why? Is something wrong with yo asses? Yes it is well anywhoo the nave could care less because rihanna is who we support and theres nothing you can say to any of us or about us that will make us change our minds.

    She don’t need Chris and Chris don’t need her, i feel that it was a good thing to do the songs together but they was causing all kinds of conflict of interesting and causing a split in their fan clubs so now that they or thier own entity perhaps they can boh grow and do their own thing again without each other crossing.
    Ps i feel she did not answere because she want to not bash chris name and felt
    that its pass time to let it go and she do not have to keep defending why she did the remixes that is water under the puking bridge right about now. And now talking about it was the best thing she could have ever done. They or two super stars working on their careers and i hope it stays that pucking way from now on. And this is a photo of her in the barbadian army and if she bleached herself she sure in the hell did star a long dam time ago. Many will be paying close attention to how she and Chris will be doing on their careers and i trust that the navy don’t cause problems like XYZ tries to cause Rihanna by downing each and everything she does and i hope to see chris on that FORBES LIST SOON XYZ. Hopefully Rihanna will work her job and leave chris’s sweet name out of her mouth, for ever.And i am not aganist chris i feel that theres enough paper out there for him too. Hes young and still growing too and i do not dislike him and no matter how big of a PUKKKKKKIN ASS “XYZ” ACTS OVER RIHANNA AND HER HUMP IN THE ROAD WITH HER MOVIE OR HER LOVE LIFE I WILL STILL NOT STOOP TO “XYZ’S LEVEL OF DOO DOO, EVER UNLESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

      I’m curious, are you Bajan, LAX? It’s just some of the words/terms/phrases you use..interesting.. LAX, you ever met Rihanna? Is she as obnoxious, as she seems? Or is it all our imagination(s), and she’s really..”everyday” people?

      Hey, LAX, that picture of Rihanna as a cadet, was it taken at that barracks in St. Michael, it’s on the same side of the road as that big gas station, right? And both aren’t too far from that police station too, right?
