Drake Clears Up Rihanna Rumor/PR Stunt…
…but some people need a little bit more convincing. So, actor-turned-rapper Drake called into the Rosenberg and Cipha Sounds show on Hot 97 in NYC to clear the air. Drake denied the rumors that RiRi is his girl. He says he has the “utmost respect” for Rihanna and he claims that Rihanna’s people started the rumor to use him (Yawn).
How much you want to bet his girlfriend Bria Myles put him up to it. No doubt Drake’s management is none too happy that their PR stunt didn’t catch fire. Note to publicists: stay thinking consumers are dumb and they will fool you every time!

I believe her people put out that story. Just like they admitted they put out the Jay Z rumor.
They pay paps to follow her around, they plant stories, they are making her a bigger star than her music is.
BLAh, Blah, Blah….thanks for clearing that up Drake, cuz we were REALLY concerned.
I’d rather know why the murderer who killed Dolla’s lawyer is stating that the actions his client took were manslaughter at worst and self defense at best….Sandra please dig deep into your sources to find out, what Dolla could have done to threaten this man sitting in valet waiting for his car AFTER the altercation???
No b*tch. Rihanna’s people did it. Just like they did it with that basketball player who was just having dinner with his family at that restaurant.
iscream you speak nothing but the truth.
I never believed the Jay story(I know plenty of ppl who do though) but I dont recall her ppl admitting that they made it up either..lol Interesting. I thought razzi got pd by the magazines they sold their pics to? I never believed this story anyway, moving right along.
@Krysi - I def. feel we are missing something when it comes to this Dolla story.
And another thing, Drake’s music and his affiliation to Young Money is all the publicity he needs. Hell, you ain’t even know who the f*ck he was 2 months ago. Thought he was just some fan “looking up to” Trey. 2 months ago, Trey was just Trey Songz and not “struggling R&B singer Trey Songz.”
You’re so f*cking anti-everything that it sickens me to the core of my being.
But I’ll be here later to checkout the updates lmao.
@ Daisy they admitted it & since we all know I’m madam mixshytupalot you can look it up if you like. But this I do remember… it involved Jay.
& don’t act like these stars don’t pay paps to show up and take their pics. You really think she is that big of a star to have them following her every step. Kerri Underwood is a bigger star than she is why don’t you ever see her plastered everywhere.
It is what it is. Its working for her so whatever.
Rihanna is an attention ho’ and leaked them photos. Why would Chris release a photo of drawz on his head? And yes Rihanna’s PR people did admit to making up the Jay Z story
Yes and if Rihanna was such a big star it took over a year for GGGB to go platinum. All those albums and she still is not headlining a tour? She does overseas shows b/c we know she is a bore
All she does in America is take paparazzi shots of her walking into various restaurants and stores.

Rihanna did headline a tour so hater fall back last time I checked ciara opened for her and naima when yo fav flops gonna get 5 #1 us hits?
OMG STOP THE PRESSES CHARLES JUST GAVE SOMEONE OUTSIDE OF BRANDY PROPS…
Yall funny up in here. Krsyi # 9 lmao aint it the truth though. I didn’t even think about her live shows… woo wee. People were talking about Ashanti dancing yesterday. Well at least she tries. Rhianna just stands there as if, if she moves the light is going to bounce off her forehead and mess up the camera shot… BORING!
uh oh… dang i didnt know you was a rihanna stan charles….sheez
cuz she hold me DoWn, every time I hit her up
when I get right I promise that we gon’ live it up
she make me beg for it, till she give it up

you da best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had
Best I ever had
(i say ) you da fukking…
@Charles….have you heard the original version of the song? I still like the radio version though.
Years ago, Drake was on Degrassi, he doesn’t even look the same.
I dont think Kerry is a bigger star. The razzi have their favs we all know that. They take pics of ppl who will sell magzine and who they can get money for.
Rihanna’s talent was making her own lane, having hot singles and becoming famous and I like her music. She knows she isnt the best singer or dancer its not about that with her. She works the HELL out of her own lane! She is FLY in my book all day long!
As far as cd sales very few artist go plat. anymore so again I say better late than NEVER!
@13 and @14
I don’t like her but if you gonna drag a artist you better have facts or I will drag..
And no one compares to bransus allah christ esp not flopica
@16
He looks mix but I feel there’s more to the story I don’t see the appeal but he did have one song I liked.
I don’t remember Rhianna ever going on tour. Maybe she did and I missed the memo.
Kerry Underwood is a huge star in the country music world.
Hey yall atl hoodrat jai jai
Wrote me back
“
Your such a considered person and I really appreciate all the comments that you have ever left on my page…..they really show how bright you are!!!! I am glad that you continously stay in beat with all of my updates and that you take time out of your busy schedule to leave me such remarkable msgs. It is because of people like you that I continue to rise exceedingly and abundantly!!!! I wont hold any judgement against you b/c where living in perilous times and the enemy is real….This spiritual warfare is bigger than you and I…however, I will be praying for you and I challenge you to accept Christ and live as beautiful as I do….I understand my life is entertaining and Ive been a hot topic for quite some time now, but i adore you…honestly, maybe we should hook up for coffee or maybe redwine, oh its me!!!!
Oh and as far as living goes…..do you actually think we have your i.q to take a pic of one of our many cars directly in front of our beautiful home so that people like you can zabba search us…of course not, sure your light bulb watts are higher than that….coming from a family that has lucrative funds, we wouldnt make a ignorant business decision such as your own, and never mind the silver spoon baby soon for arrival that probably has more in her savings acct than you should imagine….See I serve an awesome God and he has not and will not forsake me….Now I do understand misery loves company, but lets just say the father thinks we should pay your bills for the month, if need be you can send me your info and I’m sure we can handle this matter expeditiously!!!! Im sure its equivalent to a pair of my Tory Burch sandals and I have a million pair!!!!!!!!! Nice day love don’t forget to send us a copy of your expenses…thanks!!!!!!!!’
o.k yall coming hard at Rhi Rhi and since I do like her I’m riding for her. Rhi Rhi DID have a damn tour that she headlined AND no matter how long it took her to go platinum, she did. That CD has ALSO been on the billboard charts for over 100 weeks and is still charting. Hate her swag if ya want to but Rhi Rhi is dat bytch.
She worked hard to get the status that she has and it didn’t come overnight but she has it so fall back.
On another note it’s BIG’s B-Day. I love my Biggie!
NOT A RIHANNA FAN NEITHER BUT SHE DID A GOOD GIRL GONE BAD TOUR, THOUGH IT WAS CUT SHORT DUE TO LACK OF SALES, THEY LATER PUT HER ON THE GLOW IN THE DARK TOUR WITH KANYE.
@Ice that would be CARRIE..lol I thought you were talking about Kerry Washington. Same thing I LOVE me some Carrie and yes she is big in the country world but name one country star that the razzi follow?..lol So my point remains the same when you are BIG enough the razzi will FOLLOW you PAID or UNPAID!
@Shauny Co sign and ^5..lol
Where did Rihanna headline a tour? Not in America
And my fast continues.
name one country star that the razzi follow?..

*hits the buzzer* Um Keith Urban?

Kudos to you Drake - thanks for clearing this RUMOR UP!!! Rhi Rhi … we going to need you to think of another way to be relevant.
TEAM Rhi Rhi!
