If I hear one more person say Rihanna is broke I will scream. I keep telling you good people that if it isn’t on CNN it ain’t true. Nobody knows where that story came from, yet you’re willing to spread the malicious gossip. I’m very disappointed in some of you because I thought I taught you better thaan this especially you Malcolm tsk tsk tsk.
Anyway, the paps were out in full force on Melrose Ave today and they snapped Rihanna (with her little brother) and Chris Brown doing a little shopping. I wonder whose money Rihanna was spending if she’s so broke?
But on a side note, Rihanna, I need to have a word with you baby. I know you’re the style queen and everything looks ultra fabulous on you. But those boots are not the bizness sweetie. They’re very distracting and just plain hideous. I wouldn’t be mad at you if you never wore those ugly ass boots again. Please.
But the real story here is Chris Brown. Is he paying a little more attention to his personal style of dress? Granted he looks like he just played a round of golf at the local Country Club, but I like it. Lord knows that boy can’t dress himself to save his life! Good job RiRi!

Seriously, they look like Tarantulas crawling up her leg!
Chris does look rather nice in his little ensemble.
Don’t get mad at me Sandra…LOL
I saw it on the news this morning….I usually hear ’bout it from you first, then the news.
But hey, if you say it ain’t true……
The news report I saw said that Def Jam (Is Jay - Z still the CEO?) is taking all her money from the endorsements to fund the creation of her albums.
I thought it made sense, from the way she been dressing lately….LOL…I thought about what you said too:
“I wonder whose money Rihanna was spending if she’s so broke?”
Chris Brown’s? I didn’t never say she was broke..they said she only had $20,000 to her name…..that’s more than I got! LOL LOL LOL
You know I had to come ask you (I commented about it in the Lisa post), to see what was going on!
i like the red highlights in her hair but the boots need to go!!!
Looks like Chris is starting to mature, and Rhianna need to slap the shyt out of whoever told her them shoes was hot!
I love those shoes and also like the flat variety that Kim Porter was photo’d in the other night. As for the broke thing, I was taking your word for it until MTV started reporting it. TLC and Toni Braxton were still styling and profiling when they were broke to. I’m sure her credit limits are no joke. I feel bad for her and pray that she works it out. I really don’t get this deal about artists paying for everything, while the lable reeps all the profits. She obviously has a horrible contract.
Rhi Rhi got some bangin azz legs
Hold up .. Wait a Min
When Ri-YAWN-ah had them Monstrosity called Boots prior .. You was ALL on them Auntie …
I think I was the Only one on that thread who HATED them ugly azz “boots” …
Pluuuueease
what happened to my first post???..oh well…
The shoes look good on her. - NOT FOR EVERYONE..she has the legs to pull off the look, but the total get up is hella busy
NOT TO BRING UP OLD SH*T, BUT I REALLY THOUGHT RHI RHI AND JAY HAD A THING GOING ON. ESPECIALLY WITH UMBRELLA AND ALL THOSE CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND SONGS BEY WAS SINGIN ABOUT (IRREPLACABLE/ RING THE ALARM) YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. PEOPLE.COM EVEN REPORTED THAT BEY STORMED OUT OF A BASKETBALL GAME (NBA OFF COURSE) BECAUSE JAY HELD A 15 MINUTE CONVO WITH RHI RHI…..WELL ANYHOOT RHI RHI AINT STEP UP HER LOVE ROMANCE WITH CHRIS (PUBLICLY) UNTIL AFTER JAY TOOK OUT A MARRAGE LISCENCE. THEN RHI RHI COMES OUT WITH TAKE A BOW.
CONCLUSION: I THINK JAY, I MEAN DEF JAM IS TAKEN HER $$$$. JAY Z IS MAD CUZ SHE PROBABLE CUT HIM OFF FROM HITTIN THAT, SHE RUNNIN AROUND HERE W/ CHRIS TO MAKE HIM JEALOUS, AND SHE WAS BLOWIN UP WITH ENDORSEMENTS W/OUT HIM (JAY). YEAH HE GOT SOME OF HER MONEY- BUT SHE AINT BROKE.!!!!!!!!!!
$6000.00 boots yeah that just SCREAMS broke..shopping on Melrose..with what food stamps? Stop it already..let the rumor go..if she hasn’t entertained it, we shouldn’t either
the boots wouldn’t so bad if she have on a solid colored top…i’m got dizzy a$$ hell when i first looked at this pic…
as far as being broke, who knows?! i do know a lot of artists sign shady a$$ contracts n don’t pay attention 2 their money…
on the flipside i know a lotta of people “look” like money, but they be broke a$$ hell…i know quite a few people like that myself…it eventually catches up w/ u though…
I like her hair, I don’t like the boots. I can’t believe we’re still talking about the broke story. It’s the same exact story that’s starting to get picked up by MTV and others so I still don’t believe it. I think it’s still spreading because she hasn’t denied it yet. Maybe it’s time for her PR person to step up (if they still have a job).
Okay, looking at the boots again I agree with Bloggergirlz. The boots can be cute, but the outfit is just to busy.
Can someone tell me how broke looks on a person that has been given free designer clothes as part of some promo work?
The only buying she was doing was at Starbucks, I also believe Chris’s mom has told hime to stay away from the golddigger that’s why in the video they are doing the B & J but much farther apart.
I believe it, the bodyguard is gone and so is the stylist, two major signs…
I work @ the bank she banks @ & the rumors are TRUE! She is broke… (by artist standards not mine). She has a black card so she can shop ultd now but lets see where she is shopping come next month.
& is she shopping or window shopping.
Man you a window shopper go to the dealership tryn’a get a test drive. Man u’s a window shopper in the jewelry store looking @ shid u can’t buy.
She got a magic fanger on her left hand??? HMMMM, I see those!
i like the boots… I think Chris looks a mess. Does he even own a pair of hard-sole shoes? Every adult male should own a suit, a jacket, a tie and some REAL SHOES not tennis.
rhi rhi is dressing like this to get her pic taken so she can get in the papers. so she can get work and charge big time apperence fees. i thought yall knew that. also, stars dont pay for clothes its all giving to them free, if ri ri get her pic taken wearing 1000.00 chicken skin boots and tomorrow 20 people goes out to buy those chicken skin boots then the designer turned 1000 into 20,000. thats what u call legal hustle.
chris is a 19 yr old boy, and i know from being a former 19 yr old boy, you are not going to dress in a suit and tie unless required.
Rihanna is a SMART BUSINESS WOMAN. She learned a lot from JayZ about keeping your mouth shut and not saying anything publicly when you make business decisions, at least I’m sure she did. She reviewed her circumstances, it was not working for her so she made her decision and let her go.
She did not say anything public she is dealing with it in private just like any business person should. The fact they are saying anything about it leads me to believe their is some truth that they were doing a $h*tty job with her money.
she likes those boot things, always wears ‘em. mixed reviews.
dang, she don’t let chris outta her sight. the couple the plays together…breaks up first? or…
Well I don’t know if she’s broke or not, but iscream, just because she doesn’t have a lot of money in that bank doesn’t mean she only has one bank account. She might have savings, investmensts, IRAs, who knows?
Sandra,
Those boots are FIYAH, boo-boo :). She just doesn’t have them on with the right thing. All black is what you were with them and because she is a celebrity, she shouldn’t have them on more than once, but she had the on with the proper attire at 106 & Park. (I saw a photo, I don’t watch that ish)
I meant “wear” and “them”. I can’t blame the nails today, I took them off. LMAO!
Oh, and Chris is looking nice in this shot. Trying to step his game up a little. Her brother looks just like her.
This is Auntie’s post from 6/19 about these same ugly azz boots

Rihanna showed off her funky boots on BET’s 106 & Park
This is how I like to see Rihanna dress: sensibly and with some class! She’s a great role model for the young sisters who look up to her.

@ marshefen
I agree & just so you know I was kidding. I don’t work for the bank where she has an account. I don’t even work for the banks… anymore. Had to get out when I saw how much turmoil the economy was in.
Aww, Rhi and her lil brother look adorable. I like Chris Breezy’s outfit, he definitely getting his grown man on, but he’s still so young. I think all of his outfits are appropriate, i don’t know what people expect a damn teenager to be wearing…suits and shyt? By the way, he guard back there is looking serious as hell…
Spreading the malicious gossip? LOL LOL Isn’t that why we visit blog sites - to read it?
Sandra, you would have no problem posing a rumor of Beyonce being broke for example. So, how come the rumors are “vicious” when it comes to your skunk boot wearing girl Rihanna?
Chris looks pretty cute in that pic…just when I was thinkin that he was losing his cuteness with age! As for Rhianna, the boots shoes or whatever are ugly as hell. PAAALEEEZE don’t tell me she paid 6 stacks for those monstrosities!! Who knows, she might be broke for real…just cuz u see some celebrity wearing expensive azz shoes, bags and clothes doesn’t mean they PAID for them. They be gettin that shyt for free as gifts or because the designer hopes the star will be photographed in whatever it is. I really hope she got that ENTIRE oufit for FREE!!

Are you sure those were the same boots?
I liked them until I realized that they were heels, they would have been hot if they were flat
By the was where is her bodyguard, or can’t she afford one at this moment.
First, let me go ahead and say, I am a CB hater…yes…I am…I haven’t liked any song he’s done since the first album. NOT A ONE.
NOW - I will agree with Sandra. He (or someone close to him) is definitely paying more attention to his sense of style. I know the man is young, so I’m not expecting suits - ESPECIALLY THAT CRAPPY RED/WHITE OUTFIT (not suit, OUTFIT) that he wore to the Grammys.
All that being said - I respect his grind & his hustle.
And as far as Rihanna, she can take risks like that, as popular as she is right now. She is the style icon Ciara WILL NEVER BE…HEAR THAT CiCi?! No go put on a baseball cap, jogging pants, and sit down somewhere! You’re not as cute as Ashanti, you can’t sing like Beyonce, and you would have NEVER held a torch to Aaliyah. Why don’t you and Olivia get together and form a new group called “The Could Have Been’s!”
Dang…that was a lot of hate right there…I’m going to sit in the corner for the rest of the night….
Rhi-Rhi is STILL HOTT and those boots wouldn’t stop me from Smashing-That-AZZ
GOOD MORN SR FAM….

For younguns, the boots are FIERCE! Childdddddd, if I were young again but alas, who wants to be young in these days and times, especially in the inner cities, when they’re killing each other like there’s no tomorrow. Peace.
