"The Rihanna Effect": Toxicity defined: the closer you get, the heavier the dose, and the harder you fall:

1.) Chris Brown (thank God for talent and work ethic).
2.) Matt Kemp - But wasn't it only after publicly been seen with her that his career began to slump in 2010? Wasn't it only AFTER distancing himself from her that he then began to regain his "Pre-Rihanna" form? YUP!
3.) *Sigh..* And now 'Battleship' - Rihanna's $400-$450-Million failure. "Hers" and 'hers' alone!

Rihanna is cursed. She brings her bad luck where, whoever, whenever!

X,Y,"and Z" -- OUT..!!
