Last week, ‘Stay’ star Rihanna ruffled political feathers when she chimed in on the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Indeed, as recent fighting between the pair claimed more lives, the singer weighed in on the matter by tweeting ‘Free Palestine.’
Then, after being slammed by spectators who questioned how much she knew on the subject she was now weighing in on, the singer deleted the tweet, replaced it with another encouraging peace and looked on as a “source close to her” claimed “she didn’t even realise it was a tweet until she started hearing from her fans.”
Now watch as actor D.L Hughley shares his thoughts on Riri‘s supposed political stance.
Why he thinks she published the tweet on purpose?
Watch below…
When asked if tweets published by basketball player Dwight Howard and Rihanna were published on purpose, Hughley told ‘TMZ‘:
I think that they did it on purpose and find out there were repercussions and don’t like dealing with them.
So, let us know…
LOL WHO IS THIS BISH KIDDING
WE KNOW WHAT SHE TWEETED WASNT AN ACCIDENT
THIS HO IS JUST SEEKING ATTENTION ESPECIALLY
SINCE HER POPULARITY IS SLOWLY DECLINING LIKE HER
LAST SINGLE ON THE CHARTS
LOL A 58K CAREY STAN TALKING ABOUT CHART DECLINE?
DEATH @ THE SELF DRAG LOL
@LOL I don’t think a Mariah fan would name their self ‘Cwtfish Carey.’
I don’t get into politics but I saw a pic of a child who head was half blown off because of what’s going on over there. It sickens me that grown human beings can do this and innocent women and children are the real victims. Grow up and act like civilized adults who can get along despite differences. I thank god everyday I was born in the USA.
Don’t act like America is the best place to live
America is far more civillised than most places in the world, so yes it is a pretty amazing place to live. If you don’t believe me just ask all those people who don’t know if they’ll live to see another day because of all the missiles and rockets being thrown at them.
Honey it is.. Everyone wants to be like us in some way shape or form.. We want to be like- nobody except us!
Okay it may be civilized but is it he best place to live? never mind Florida I ain’t never setting foot there and I’m black
America isn’t without it’s problems but at least we make progress as a civilization. What’s going on over in P******** is a tragedy. Over whose religion is better. That’s tragic. We don’t kill each other in the US for that. freedom of religion.
Hmm… you forgot to mention this is happening with the “approval” of the USA, like it´s always been. Israel and America (scared of what might happen if not) are the ones to blame. Sorry. But yeah, obviously anyone would prefer to live in a region with no conflict, like Canad, the USA, Europe, Japan, Australia and so many other countries. You probably think America is the best place to live though 🙂 If it weren´t for the laughable health system…
NEXT THING SHE’LL SAY THAT SHE DIDNT REALIZE THAT BREEZY WAS BEATING THE CRAP PUTTA HER SHE ONLY REALIZED WHEN SOURCES CLOSE TO HER TOLD HER
You Sound Dumb AF
What in the h-e-l-l does that have to do with her political views or how much she knows about the issue she tweeted about?
Stfu u dirty ass p**** go eat cyanide and
Die b****
Y’all just post anything on here. Who cares what DL Hugley thinks. I mean, really
Ignorant b****. Not everybody lives in celeb world dear. Everyone’s opinion is important dear so shut your mouth. World politics is far bigger than who’s more famous than who especially when lives are being lost so have an arena of seats.
@TheTruth. Can I ask you a serious question sis? Besides reading this blog do you actually watch the news?
Watch? Ha! I just visit this blog for entertainment. I’m actually a copy editor, so international news is basically my life.
We all know that this is an anti-Rihanna site but to share the thoughts of a man who jokes about domestic violence and compares President Obama to Carlton Banks is just laughable.
Oh gosh ..
The HIVE are going to get their revenge with this post
There’s nothing wrong with having a world view, but the problem with Rihanna is that what she said wasn’t a world view but rather trend hopping. If she really believed in what she said she wouldn’t have deleted it.
YES DID YOU SEE HOW ANNOYING THIS HO WAS DURING THE WORLD CUP I BET SHE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT SOCCER AND BALLS EXCPET FOR THE ONES SHE CONSTANTLY SHOVES INSIDE HER MOUTH
LMAO..I love Rihanna, but I see know lies spoken.
She is Bajan and bajans are huge fans of football .. or soccer as u call it
EXACTLY
Duh .. She does everything for attention what else is new ? And to those asking who dl is
He heads a nationally syndicated radio show and had a prime time sitcom for many yrs with an all black cast
Dwight and rihanna probably don’t even know what they were tweeting just trying to be a part of the trend
Like she does with everything else from world cup to championship
To answer someone’s question about America being the best place to live in the world. It isn’t. The UK is. They have strict gun laws so have low gun crime rates, they have a welfare system which is funded by the taxpayer which allows everyone (even the unemployed) to have free healthcare AND they actually have a tougher stance on racism. I know all of this because I lived there and i am telling you that some of the s*** that goes down over here wouldn’t fly in the UK.
The only thing I’d say is better about here is that we’re tougher on criminals and they’re really soft on them.
Hmm I agree I´d prefer to live in the UK than in the USA. Obviously. But it doesn´t have to be the best place to live. Basically most European countries have what you just describes about the UK. And I´m sure there are some other countries around the world.
Lol we all know Rihanna is a dumb idiot. This is the dumb h** who posed with chained elephants in Thailand and posed outside of mosque for a photoshop. Dumb and attention seeking and this probably was a publicity stunt because no ones pays any attention to her besides what shes wearing now.
This just proves Rihanna isn’t the one tweeting from her account all the time. Oh but shes keeps it ‘real’ right?
FOR F*** SAY WHO GIVES A S*** ALREADY. COVER REAL F****** STORIES. TIRED OF BEYONCE AND RIHANNA POST. THEM BROADS NOT DOING MUSIC.
We all know Rihfund is dumb as hell. I never believed that it was an accident anyway. Just an attention w**** wanting attention. Politics are not your forte boo boo.
All that happened was the truth came out.
Rihanna can tweet all manner of nasty, insult people in filthy ways, e-beef, but got chicken as fck when people started calling her out and she realized she didn’t really know sht about the topic and couldn’t defend her opinions with memes of her sticking her tongue out.
I’m not even mad at her. She’s not a smart girl, she’s popular and successful but a loud wind blows between her ears. Her mistake was thinking she could jump on a trend for something as serious as this. If she can’t flash her tits about it then she should know it’s not the lane for her to jump into.
Rihyawna always chickens out of s*** she starts when the backlash is worse. #ScardeyAssBeyotch. Finish what you started hoee!
TGJ using Rihannas name for hits again, DL was the same one who was condoning domestic violence not too long ago saying women shouldn’t speak out about it, then tried to retract his statement, who cares what he thinks
Half of TGJ doesn’t even know what’s going on outside of the world of pop singers so she’s honestly in good company kii
You don’t need to be a politician to ask for the freedom of others. Go riri
Another urban blog sells out to racist TMZ
No one cares what anti-black racist Harvey Levine & racist TMZ thinks about Rihanna or Dwight Howard or any other urban celeb
#FREE PLAESTINE
#FREE P********
#FREE URBAN MEDIA FROM RACIST TMZ
She tweeted it on purpose and good for her for finally sending out a positive message out to the world. What’s happening in gaza in an attrocity.
I swear the opinions some of you have of this celebs its alarming being a pop star doesnt mean you dont have other interests besides your career. Rihanna as a human can love soccer, she can also have an opinion on the tragic lose of innocent life… She tweeted what she did knowing full well what it meant and was probably told to take it down after the backlash…for once look beyond you disgusting hate people!
and look at this idiots going on about how america is the safest place to live…like what? Always on edge as to when russia, N.korea, countless arab countries are gonna come after you ass. Just because USA wars dont happen on its soil doesnt mea they arent at war.
The problem isnt with rihanna its with ya’ll attacking her for expressing her opinion in a none hostile manner. One step away from killing someone for their religion? And the funny think is that this idiots all worship the same god just in different ways.
Lol-ed at everyone getting mad at rihanna making more headlines related to the world cup then the actual players…going on about she knows nothing about soccer when its literally one of the easiest sports to understand, or how she knows none of the players when she was naming players by selfies she took with them.
Kii This Delusional Hoee kii. Biitch she made headlines for acting like The Whoree she is. Holding up her shirt, flashing that boy chest. #BYE BIITCH
actually she made headlines from the first kick off whistle by showing she knew a thing or two about soccer and its player with her twitter commentary. ya’ll just hate that she got attention for what every football fan was already doing. do you think she was the only person to flash something at the final whistle? NO she was just the only relevant person to do so and the media only cared about her. and obviously even the players only cared about her. what with them hurrying to give her their shirts and trophies even before they left the field
Well we all know Rihanna is illiterate. Just check out her interviews and you can see how slow she is to utter out a word. Her and Beyonce are the same to be correct. Truth!
I think she was trying to look smart and act like she knew about the situation and thought it was a positive movement and just tweeted it.
Like how can a 25-6 year old just tweet something like this and not know what it’s about? SMH!

*won’t*
Well this is a polarizing political issue and I don’t see the problem with Rihanna having an opinion on it. Rihanna is an intelligent girl who likes to be informed about what is going on around the world.
‘
She is not like some hypocritical thief who calls for an end to gun violence and goes on to shoot a tour promo promoting gun violence.
Lol. I stopped after ‘Rihanna is an intellegent girl’
I’m surprised you can read at all.
Read this: Future isn’t going to marry Ciara. Lol
Read this: Your opinion is irrelevant #StayOnTopic
Bye! She dropped out of school at 15.
and most of us can read and right at age 15. meaning she can read and understand about whats happening over there just fine.
Did I say she couldn’t? That doesn’t automatically make you ‘intelligent’, as you’ve just proved.
Really RihSplice?
Really tho RihSplice
America is AMERICA, the rest are lessers, why is the USA the country with most immigrants? Because everyone wants that American passport, bow down peasants, Europe who?, Asia who?, Oceania who?, Africa LOL, all continents combined + south America+ central America can’t touch the US, everyone hate us because with rule the world, deal with it.
Why lol at Africa? You’d be surprised at the number of immigrants in Africa
There’s no comparisons.
Sips tea and looks at the number of serial killers that hail from America and the number of kids that kill each other with GUNs at american schools……#AmericaTheBest? #really?
Racist! Why are you laughing at Africa?
That ho need to stop up
If Rihanna can ‘have an opinion’ why did she delete the tweet and claim she never did it?
Why can’t Ciara get a wedding date?
Do you have a wedding date yet?
Bloop
Silly troll, I’m already happily married something that Ciara and Xeroxianna will never do. Tell me, what will you do when Ariana runs out of ink?
Who says she’ll never get married? You? Bish take your married ass off this blog and go take care of the children you old broad.
LOL so bc I’m married, I’m old? Sweetheart I don’t children and I’m far younger than your flop fav. Your fav wants to be married so bad, and it’s hilarious to see h*** like you seethe over the fact Flopture rather wear a condom before he walk that dude down the aisle LMAO
Motherfxckin liar. You said you had a son before or did you forget? You’re probably just a lonely single F*** tbh.
I have a daughter f**, not a son and not children. You just are mad that I’m happily married and your fav isn’t successful in her professional or personsl life. You’re so worried about my being… If you and Flopara channeled that energy into Ciara’s life, then she would have a certification AND a ring. Don’t be jealous.
She’s forever thirsty for attention its always about her. People are dying this is not a joke rihanna
People are dying and Ariana is flopping. Sad world.
Recently had a #2 hit on BB 100 plus #1 UK charts. If that’s flopping then she should flop more often don’t you think??
Her new album will flop too. Where is Break Free (from stale 2009 edm) on the charts sis?
It outpeak What Now with no video tho. Let’s talk about that mess. Rihanna can’t even sell double platinum in the States? When was her last double platinum album? She stays being Yoncé’s lessor
Yes honey cling to Beyoncé while your fav can’t even sell 500K copies. Is she even known outside of America? UA sold 4 million internationally. When will Yours Floppy? Ariana is Miley’s lessor.
Diamonds > The Way
Stay > Baby I
Pour It Up > Tattooed Heart
What Now > Right There
Oh and BTW peaked in the top 25 of BB with no promotion. Where is Break Free?
What now peaked in top 25*
Break free is STILL in the top twenty after debuting two weeks ago
Now keep it keep cute and move along
Lol Break Free debuted @ 14 with no video no promo. Plus you’re comparing Yours Truly with Unapologetic are you crazy? You’re delusional, you really are a navy. I’m done with your crazy ass. BTW Yours Truly is more critically Acclaimed than R7 check that heax. Leave me alone now.
All of that chart success and still can’t get an album to go gold or platinum. SAD. I feel for her, because the poor thing won’t even make it past 5 years. She will remain in the shadows of Selena Gomez & Demi Lavato.
Even with the world cup she’s was doing to much & making herself the face of the world tweeting s*** and stuff. Simmer down girl before flopping humbles you
She’s from Barbados, of course she’ll know about soccer and the world cup. Sit your ignorant ass down somewhere.
An Ariana stan talking about flopping? Has Yours Truly even sold 400k yet? MOTS sold 700k
Yours Truly will be gold soon with a top ten just like MOTS which is also gold with a top 10 hit. Yours Truly is still selling on Itunes tho so sit your ass down boo boo
But it’s not gold now, so as long as her fan albums are actually certified, you can’t come to her reply box talking about a Disney girl
A disney girl with 4 octaves & a whistle register? I’d love to be that disney girl. Biitch you stay obsessing over me just because I clocked you with Beyoncé stats selling 140 Million Records WW you stay mad thot
MOTS went gold with 1 hit and one moderately successful single. Yours Truly had 500 singles, videos, performances and a tv show and still couldn’t push 500k lol. Even VILEy Cyrus went platinum.
Ariana is a vocalist we can’t say the same about R****. Ariana didn’t have the hype rihanna had. Ariana didn’t perform for DC3 & being the michelle. Ariana didn’t have a Jay Z cutting deals for her. Ariana used her 4 Octave & a whistle register to come on top she didn’t succk no diick to be signed. Keep trying me
Ariana had a lot of hype! Didn’t The Way peak in top 10? Baby I in top 30? Didn’t she have major award show performances? Talk shows? A TV show on nickelodeon? Doesn’t she have the same manager as Bieber? Excuses. Tamar Braxton shouldn’t be outselling her lmfao. You are dismissed.
Can you explain why Miley?? Taylor?? Beyoncé?? Sold more albums than your fave in the states with less albums?
As soon as you explain why your fav hasn’t sold 400K. My fav has 7 platinum plaques sis….
LOL you didn’t clock me. As mentioned before, you receipts are reception. Ariana doesn’t even have a real whistle register. Chante Moore has a whistle register too, and? She sounds like someone is drowning her in the water. You’re clinging to Beyonce and etc. because your fav is a flop. And last time I checked the only reason Ariana is “successful” is because her d*** jumping ass copied Mariah blueprint. If anything don’t attempt to drag anyone, when your fav is a cheap watered down MK version of Mariah. This is why the real All I Want For Christmas is You will always be over Problem. The real problem she has is that stiff dancing.
Honey that was not just for fun it was a business venture with budweiser. No your facts h**. So what if she post pics of her in brasil. Its her damn twitter account. Anywhere she goes you will hear or see her. So if that bothers you just log off. Other than that deal and accept the fact that she is gere to stay and continuously slay your fave
I don’t understand the “backlash”? Stop focusing on a f****** tweet and channel your energy to the actual issue you phucktards!!!
^^ Agreed. Your opinion and etc. should not be towards Rihanna. It should be towards the actual issue.
But the post topic is about Rihanna.
Since its a music blog not a political one. So the comments will reflect.
Since when has riri given a f*** about “repercussions” gal has done a lot more worse than to have an opinion not shared by the masses…….anyway #freepalestine
#FREEPALESTINE YAAASSSSSS
Ariana never sucked diick to be on top she didn’t have Jay Z doing dogy deals for her to make her relevant
B**** please Ariana is a w****. Wasn’t she f****** that Nathan dude while being in a relationship with Jai?
I’m done that’s what I wanted yes, yous pressed as f***
You should be done. As a matter of fact, keep quiet until your fav goes gold. Ha!
BISH EXPLAIN HOW R**** HAS SEVEN PLATINUM PLAGUES WHEN ONLY SIX OF HER ALBUMS WENT PLATINUM WHAT ARE YOU DUMB AND CANT COUNT NOW?
MOTS sold 1.5 million internationally and she has a plaque to prove it sis. Therefore she has seven like I said. Sit your ugly ass down and count the cold sores around your mouth ugly. 😉
LOL GO FINGER YOURSELF WITH A BROKEN SHARD OF GLASS YOU BUM B**** H** YOU COME HERE WITH FABRICATED RECEIPTS AND RESORT TO PROFANITY JUST TO GET TOUR WAY ACROSS LOL AT THE SAD ASS NAVY
According to the IFPI, unapologetic has sold 2.8 million copies in 2012 and 1.8 million in 2013 wuth total of 4.1 million WW…….unapologetic>ariana’s whole career
Ohh boo hoo…. This is all just pr!!!!! She has an album coming up. This s*** isnt even a big deAl. Just a thread for the hive to come vent. Who just randomly asks dl hugley for his insight on anything. He is a comedian. Negative press or positive her reign still stands intact. So enjoy your faves current accolades while you guys can 🙂
Yes sis but she should have kept it quite since israel is packed with the navy.
According to the IFPI, unapologetic has sold 2.8 million copies in 2012 and 1.8 million in 2013 wuth total of 4.1 million WW…….unapologetic>ariana’s whole career
IFPI counts shipments mot sales.
Either you’re a terrible liar or you’re just as dumb as it can get. 1.8+2.8 is not 4.1 it’s 4.6 which Is totally false. Unappologtic has sold 3,470,000 copies WW as of June 2014 according to the SAME source (Chartnews) that has FLOPYONCE at 3,363,000 copies WW. So basically the both are a lil over 100k apart from each other. It’s nothing to brag about . You Navy are complulsive liars, inflating ass dumb bitchess.
Chart news had it at 3.4 million in december. Its at 3.5 now at the most.
It doesn’t really matter now because Rihanna still outsold her with record sales per era. At the end of the day Rih sells albums and singles. You can’t call her a singles artist if her albums hits 3x platinum and some of her contemporaries can’t pass 400k. It doesn’t matter if Bey is at 3.3 million. Good for her but she’ll won’t outdo UNA Eras success and that’s a fact. So remain to seethe
Screaming @ her excuse
This bittch is so annoying. All she does is hop on whatevers trending in current news and try and get involved like she did with the world cup. She doesnt know shitt.
Most of you people are so sad..hating on this girl for what? For daring to enjoy the world cup, for tweeting about it, for enjoying an after party with the team she was rooting for. She was enjoying a sport that’s inherit to her culture. All Barbadians were. (The island itself basically shuts down for the month and football is all everyone talks about) Furthermore I don’t know her personally but based on the school that she attended in Barbados..she is anything but stupid. You can’t buy your way into the school..a position is earned based on academic achievements. All that to say that I’m pretty sure if that is her political stance that she has the capability to back it up.
Too bad she dropped out early! And her grammar reflects that.
I’ve never seen an interview where Rihanna’s grammar is incorrect. She speaks with a Barbadian accent and speaks slowly so that she’s understood but there is absolutely nothing wrong with her grammar.
And ..yes she did drop out early but my point is that based on her admittance to the school she is not the village idiot that the majority of you seem to think she is.
Well I have and her tweets are appalling. So maybe she should have stayed in that school because it clearly wasn’t long enough.
And Rihanna is a bandwagoner. Hush up and deal. She wouldn’t have deleted the tweet and denied it if she really understood strongly what she meant.
Well I said she was smart..you figure out why she deleted the tweet.
Because she has PR.
Sweetheart, you’re might worried about Rihanna. A lot of them are high school drop outs, but look at where they ended up… albums with certifications. Can we say the same Princess Micha?
Um who are you? And does that change my point? NO
Who am I? I’m not the girl that neck was nearly cracked by your clumsy fav. My point still stands…. That you’re obsessed with Rihanna.
To be honest most people around the world are on P********´s side. I mean, Israel´s responses are always so out of control and cruel (and it´s been for decades) that only people in Israel (and not all of them) and some people in the USA (the reason Israel can keep doing this) support this atrocity.
If Rihanna thinks (I don´t know if she thinks at all but anyway) like 90% of the world, good for her. At least she´s good at something 🙂
Shut da f*** up!!!! Israel ceased fire twice as the world suggested them and h**** kept shooting!! They are the ones who started it all while israelis just want to live in their OWN country in phuckin quite!! They have shitt loads of arab counries and they want israel. And yes many many pepole are on h**** side cuz they dont know s*** about whats happenning ans the reasons. All they see are pictures that make them feel bad for h****. They brought them to themselfs. F*** u.
Brought it*
Hmm… people worldwide are not with H****, they are just with inocent people who suffer and are trapped just so that Israel (a fictional country created out of pity, that´s where the main problem resides) can have its safety. Their responses are out of control and you will deal. It´s f****** obvious. I mean, I understand everybody. But even some people in Israel are against this. In fact, there was quite a peaceful feedback at first, but some decades ago, Israel started to invade territories which were not given to them when the country was fictionally created in the 40s. That´s where all the ugly began for good. So you “shup da f*** up!!!”
A country made out of pitty? Its their country by history u dumb d*** and they won it by the britains. F*** u dumb ass.
You know nothing it seems… probably an American with the typical poor education they give people unless you are rich enough to pay for it 🙂
Ok you all know im probably the biggest rihanna stan in here but i am very dissapointed with her. She is the one who tweeted this, she probably didnt think twice about the outcome and then she got hit hard. She got dragged ALL OVER twitter and it was painful forme to see. She should have kept it quite cuz she has shitt loads of fans in israel and her biggest date of her Diamonds tour was in israel. My friend in israel told me a lot of her fans are angry and many others ban her. She is all over the internet and newspapers. I love her and i really hope she learns from this mistake.
I was more interested in the video on Israel and P******** than on Rihanna’s video. On the real, there is no right or wrong way to feel on this issue. It’s way too complex.
. . . than on Rihanna’s tweet.
i mean whenever rihanna says anything they always make a big deal about it… she said it already get over it.. she obviously didnt mean anything… That Grape Juice needs to put that on their site just to have something to talk about..
bunch of lames.. !!
Thanks in favor of sharing such a nice thought, article is pleasant, thats why i
have read it completely
