She may be in the middle of recording a new album, but it seems Rihanna has no interest in protecting the gem that is her voice.
For, in what might explain those raspy and oft flat vocals, the starlet was snapped enjoying a Shisha pipe during her time in Baku, Azerbaijan 10 days ago, where she performed at the city’s ‘Crystal Hall’.
Ever the rebel, eh?
More backstage snaps below…
Is i any wonder Nivea were forced to cut ties with her?
Sure, though her behavior may not seem all that detrimental to those in her corner, it’s the lack of self control or her inability to censor herself that has some both worried and all the way turned off.
For, at 24, snaps like the above are ‘cute’… for now. However, what happens in five years or so when the tabloid dramas run dry and force Rihanna to depend on say… talent she doesn’t have.
Sure, though the above may seem harsh, one just has to look at the careers of the Celine‘s and Sade‘s of the world, whose careers have been sustained by a quality that can be found on and off the stage.
Not the partying, the “I still love Chris Brown‘s or the short lived eras fueled by material she has little to no hand in creating.

The only thing she’s a god of is of having successful singles made by everyone but herself. Her albums sales are shit for a pop artist. She releases albums like she changes hair styles and none of them have been massive. If you want to look at a real goddess look at Adele who shit all over Rihanna and everyone else last (and this) year.

The “navy” can attack all they want but Samantha actually has a rational point (for once). In five, six years these antics and stunts that fuel her career aren’t gonna be cute coming from a 30 year old woman. Her drying out her vocals every night won’t help her either. I hope something outside of music kicks off for her so she can remain somewhat relevant in years to come as I only wish her nothing but success. But her career in music doesn’t seem to be set up for the long haul..

give you a Big Shout Out Rih, Rih!!!
The world successful fashion designer Tom Ford, who is famed for his classically cut designs as well as the occasional bondage style pieces and form-fitting dresses, has revealed that singer Rihanna makes his ”knees go weak.”
The ‘We Found Love’ singer has made Tom go weak at the knees with her risque and sometimes dominatrix style, and is even a fan of his designs as she recently rocked a pair of Ford’s Anaconda over-the-knee boots, which set pulses racing, accordingly.
PS
Thanks Mr Tom Ford, Rih love you designer chothes.

Rihanna is an open book and isn’t disingenuous like Beyonce.
Let Beyonce tell it, she’s a kind hearted soul in a loving and honest relationship. The truth of the matter is that Jay Z only got with her when he heard Nas and R Kelly showed interest in her.
Her fans the nerve to paint Rihanna to be a stupid rebel when it was Beyonce who supported Jay in court after he stabbed the producer who leaked his music, google it if you don’t believe me.
She says she a savvy business woman but look what happened to the first album she put out once her domineering daddy was out of the picture.
I’ll take a rebellious rihanna over a fake Beyonce any day of the week!

How do you know Rihanna’s antics and behavior isn’t fake as well though? I’m not staning for Beyonce but you can’t say someone is genuine just by the way they “portray” themselves to the public by photos, tweets and blog stories. Rihanna said herself in the Oprah interview she’s uncomfortable with the “sexy” image and actions she does in her career, but to you, that’s who she is in person. Point is, no one really knows if Rihanna is “genuine” other than her close friends and family.

I hear you on the whole Beyonce/ Jigga thing. But I am and have been interested in knowing what makes Rihanna a rebel? Is it the tattoos(the same tattoos that everyone who was born in the 80′s has), Is it the smoking weed (the same weed that most celebs smoke but reframe from doing it for instagram purposes), is it the teen pop songs about sex (the same types of songs that Britney and Christina were doing 15 years ago), or is it the fact that just because her personality is the opposite to Beyonce’s this automatically makes her “rebellious”. I don’t understand, please enlighten me as to why she refers to herself as Bab Gyal Riri… because to be fair, she seems quite tame!
Real question… No shade

This post is tired through and delayed get yo life Sam I know you are truly a big fan of Rihanna and she’s not givin you much to post about lately but its ok there are many of other artists out there for you to talk about…but then again they don’t get you the type of comments Rihanna does so I understand lol I don’t know how old you are but if you are her age then I’m sure you was partying enjoying yourself doing the damn thing so let the girl live…Whitney Houston said (not that im comparin the talent im comparin the age) one reason she got so wild and out of control is because she didnt have normal twenties or teens or anything she never got a chance to enjoy her life because she was always doing business thats a mistake many young artist make their image becomes more important then their sanity so when they hit 30 or older ages you see them actin out and in the press looking like they’re losing their minds so I don’t mind Rihanna acting out now because that means later there will be no excuses she had her fun and when its time to settle down with kids and a family whoever that man may be (side eye) she can say ok im ready to do this because i’ve been there done that let’s try something new..so let the girl live she’s 24 hell half of ya 34 doing the same shit lmao

Rihi felt inspired. So she called up Sia, “Yo Sia I WANNA SHINE BRIGHT LIKE DIAMONDS!’
