‘Singer’ Rihanna did an interview with radio personality Angie Martinez on Hot 97 earlier today. The part-time model spoke about an array of of topics including her Dianne Sawyer interview, new album, being a role-model and, of course, Chris Brown. Rihanna’s new album, ‘Rated R’, hit stores this week but is projected to miss the top spot behind Susan Boyle’s ‘I Dreamed A Dream’.
This was a very fun interview and I laughed a lot. What was particularly funny was her strong American accent. Remember Ms. Fenty, you didn’t grow up playing on a stoop in the Bronx; you started out singing on a Bajan stage. Let me address this in Trinidad Creole: “Wham to she? She gone foreign a lil while and she turn fresh-water yankee. She better cetch she self eh!”
Trent you r such a hater. She changes her accent. Whats the big deal really?
Oh My days Sam/Trent! She has been in america since she was 15 and is 21 now, you don’t expect her to take on some of the accent involuntary as it may be! Her personality is awesome and she is so open!
Everyone on twitter was talking about her bajan accent so what the f*** are you on?
And just in this interview she talked about her traditional meals her mother makes and how she might spend time in Barbados for Christmas…
She always talks about Barbados and her accent is clearly still very much alive, stop acting like she’s being a fake acting like an American, your just a f****** dumbass man… what the f*** is wrong with you? for real? LOL
As an American born citizen, I can hear her accent CLEARLY. Every now and then, she’ll say something very New York. But, it sounds like she’s responding to the VERY New York Angie Martinez.
Get over the f****** accent, most people lost their accents over time…It’s pretty natural for someone whos been in another country for so long to slowly lose their accent and adopt that of the other country.
Hmm I don’t even like Rihanna and I find myself defending her…lol
Rihanna can’t win for s*** on this site…lol..this is getting so sad and old..
@ BEE
AMEN!! She can’t get a f****** break on here! They pick apart every little thing about her and take every chance to throw little b**** ass disses in.
i pretty much agree with everyone else here. this girl has been in the us for a while, so OF COURSE her accent is going to change a little. and what’s the damn deal anyway? damn, i’m not even her biggest fan.
Really? I hear the Bajan accent STRONG and I’m west indian sooooo.
I don’t know, Sam. I hear it heavy. I don’t hear American, at all.
as far as her “being in the US since she was 15” comments, you forget she ALWAYS is with her best friend; so she’s always going to have the chance to “Twang” (that’s what i call it)
but lol @ wham to she. oh goooooooosh
It’s definitely not as thick as before but it’s still there.
Rih stans are starting the say the same thing Bey stans were saying circa the B’day album 2006-07 That was when B’s criticism was at it’s height!
Again if you don’t like what they say click that little X on your browser. Quite coming back. Only masochist would keep coming back to read the same type of commentary on her and get mad all over again. Rinse, Wash, and Repeat
I can only speak of her news coverage in the USA. In all honesty Rih has it easy. I see the biggest criticisms of her on blogs, youtube, social media places. Mainstream/ big media outlets don’t criticize and pick over every little thing Rih does, says, and wears the way they do B. The only time big media outlets paid her any newsworthy attention was when she got her ass beat. Other than that she is a blip on the news radar. Britney, B, or Madonna so much as fart in public and it’s the leading story on network and cable news.
So if yall are getting Pissy over some bloggers opinion it’s pretty effing sad. I could understand if i the NY Times, Post, LA Times, Washington Post etc said something critical of Rih-sus Christ!
WOW!
I see that you are STILL at it! Your hating on Rihanna reign just will NOT let up. The only difference is, it’s not cute, funny nor admirable!
Trent is either sam’s Alter Ego.. which he has created to take some steam offa him for his constant rihanna bashing… or he crawled outta the same piece of sh*t sam did, because they are hatin hard!
Trent.. u should be happy you got a carribbean artist reppin globally.. instead of dissin the girl..
while your steady on ur little small island seeing nothing!.. rihanna is seeing the world and doing her damn thing, gettin rich
so i guess its obvious ur just jealous!
The girl obviously is living somewhere else so her bajan accent will come and go.
like WTF ..u get on her about vocals… and all the rest.. but about her DAMN VOICE>>?
your such a hating cornball.. get a damn life.
RIHANNA ACCENT IS SO FREAKIN S*** I LOVE IT HER ACCENT DRAWS U 2 HER SO DATZ I THNK SHE IS SO S*** BECAUSE OF THAT AND CUZ IMMA LESBIAN SO YEAAAA IF RIHANNA WAS A LESBIAN OMG LOL I LIKE IT RIHANNA IS A FREAK DAMN SHE TURN ME THE HELL ON BTW I GOT HER PICS SAVED ON MY PHONE OH YESS I DO I LIKE HER PERSONALITY ON THIS INTERVIEW…

“Trent is either sam’s Alter Ego.. which he has created to take some steam offa him for his constant rihanna bashing”
LOL!!!
Trent, jealous much?
that was a really good interview i can relate to her a lot more now, its easy to forget that shes 21 like me. before she seemed a bit cold and calucalating but this interview was really insightful and showed her fun personality.
im still not gonna buy her album but shes the type i girl i would jam with!
news : no1 wants to be an american or sound like one, no1 likes to be dumb even Rihanna, she doesnt need to change her accent ( she didnt but ok, suck dicking f****** say so)
tho i liked her Rated R album im not a fan but she seems to be a lovely young lady
someone likes to bash on rihanna a litttttle too much.
