Guess she realized “umbrella” will probably be her most popular record.. Although I loved “Unfaithful” too!!!!!
Is everyone allergic to clothing now?
My husband’s ears pop up when she’s on TV (his penis too, I’m sure). He says’s she’s cute but all her songs sound the same - like a cheer or something
.
I looove “Wait Your Turn”. It’s one of my favorite tracks on Rated R. She seems to be enjoying herself a bit more when performing now a days. We all know the girl can’t dance, so it’s nice to see her move around a bit more than she used to.
WORK BISH!
I swear the last verse to wait is ova is to Chris
Cant wait for CBreezy to hit the stage next mth on GMA!
I’m convienced had she not been attractive there is simply no way in hell she’d be able 2 stay afloat the way that she has. Please 4give me Auntie Sandra. But the truth is the truth. This girl sucked like hell on the A.M.A’s the other night.She has absolutely no stage presence at all. But I will say this.The girl looks are indeed fierce. She should seriously consider modeling.She could make some serious money doing just that.And that alone.This is my 2 cents 4 the day. On another note 2 all my S.R family let’s have a good day.Peace and Blessings.
Daisy I’m finally on twitter, k_cicero add me when you get a chance
I loved both performances and she can sing, I don’t know why people say she can’t

I agree. She can sing (to me at least). Maybe she can’t “sang” like Whitney or old skool Mariah Carey, but her voice is unique.
Hey! Kciero
I have short attention span I must say that Robyn good girl gone bad had a few cuts on there I like but far as her performances and singing they suck, just like you like her singing well I dont think she can sing she can hold a note barely and thats it!
Aw darn, I missed this earlier? “sarcasim”.
Off Topic: Why is Eddie Winslow the replacement for Malcolm Winters on Y & R?
@kc I think she can sing, as in hold a note. I just think her voice is UGLY. I dont know how else to describe it. Her voice is just not pleasing to my ear. Honestly, the first time I heard this song and the she started with the intro, my first reaction was “bloodclot” and I’m not even Jamaican.
KC I am going to find you now
WELCOME to the other side 
I think Rihannas tone/sound works for her. Madonna, Brittany, Cher, janet, J Lo the list goes on and on of artist who arent the best singers but make HAWT songs!
KC I cant find you
I am daisy5730. Have you tweeted yet?
Cant knock Rhi keep working - throw some of that money ova here PRETTY PLEASE
I like Ri Ri but I am surprised her career has last this long
@ Anna, Wasn’t Malcolm eaten by cheetahs in Africa?
daisy i think i found you!!!! lol
I agree that she can’t SANG, there are few singers that are and I can see how her tone might be off putting to some.
@ Vibaby I love her accent I grew up with Jamaicans, my sister’s spouse was from there so I’m into Caribbean culture.
@ Mizzdallas I was just about to check for you cause I haven’t seen you in awhile. I was really curious about the whole not singing thing like do people think she can’t hold a tune? or just that she can’t SANG?

~~~~~~
LOL. His car fell off a cliff and there was never a body ,thus allowing him to come back. He came back and left “alive” many yrs. ago.
cant hate on that performance pretty decent
@cinderella
no ma’am Malcom did not die like that. He had fallen off a cliff or something like that but he came back only to leave again. You were wrong for that one….but still laughing.
@ Anna, say it aint so……
I will continue to watch Criminal Minds for my fix.
HOTT! Work it girl!
Way off topic, but is Ray J and Whitney still messing ’round? I mean who cares, but i just read that elsewhere.
She looks nice
Thanks Anna, I stopped watching yrs ago and just get updates from people who actually watch Y & R. I can’t believe all this time I thought he was eaten by cheetahs.
Eddie Winslow isn’t a good choice as Malcolm. They should cast Michael Ealy. He would be wonderful.
@ Vibaby I love her accent I grew up with Jamaicans, my sister’s spouse was from there so I’m into Caribbean culture”
Nooooo, I like her accent. I’m from the Virgin Islands I could neva dislike any Caribbean accent. Its the tone or her range, hell idk, but its not her accent.
*going back to the Tiny and Toya “Trying to tawk” post to get another laugh*

Hey Daisy I’m now following you on twitter. I’m dckim74. I don’t tweet much. I got a tweet from Nelly a few weeks ago.
@krysiJ……… lol
——
Any one notice that whenever they do a movie in the Caribbean everyone has a Jamaican accent…….I am like WTH all people from the Caribbean people don’t have the same accent……….
Riri cannnot dance. She really does need a choregorapher’s help. Maybe the label should hook her up with Laurie ann
I love how she showcases her accent in this album.
I really like Rihanna’s style but she is not a good performer IMO- I want to like her SOOO bad but I just can’t force myself to like someone that I don’t. Ahh well… I really can’t imagine Eddie Winslow as Malcolm on Y&R. Ever since that whole Superhead thing I can’t look at him the same way.

Owww, what he tweet you?
I cannot stand laurie ann’s voice (sad to say). Thought of that when you guys were mentioning riri’s accent.
Dcwife I will go back and follow you I was like who is this totally wasn’t thinking about my SR fam my bad
@shannon in her cd cover she thanks Tina Landon who use to be Janets right hand lady for choreo
she is still a bad bish dancing or not IMO of course 
@dcwife I tweeted you
**crickets**
Sidebar: Would you all tolerate this no talent mess from Jill Scott, India Arie, or Angie Stone?
@ vibaby oh lol that’s what the VI stands for, I’m so special,
I can understand the tone things it’s unique, lol, I liked her since Pon de Replay…got tired of her thanks to sandra…and am on the bandwagon again largely in part due to her cd which i love
Bless her pretty little hard. There are 2 types of people in the industry: the legitimately talented that don’t sell albums but make themselves (and their labels) money through tours, and “artists” like Rihanna/Britney Spears, etc. that are fun to look at, with empty catchy tunes that you sing along to (loudly) so you don’t have to hear them sing.
Ugh, bless her *heart, not “hard.” LOL

============================
no…people only praise this girl for her looks and fashion and hence she gets a pass..IMO she is not even that good looking..i have seen better and her stlye is really not my cup of tea..she goes overboard sometimes..anyways whatever floats her boat as well as her fans..her album is not doing well anyways so…..
@ #36
I responded to a tweet that he sent out about watching him on CSI NY and he I replied that I love him and I will definitely be watching and he replied “thanks lil mama”…I know it’s lame, but I love Nelly!!!!!!
So many want her to fail but that will only keep her climbing.
@ later,
I am a fan of Amel Larrieux. She’s beautiful, classy and a great singer. She will never be a big time star and probably won’t ever be mentioned on this blog, but her talent speaks for itself. She doesn’t need gimmicks, publicity stunts, gossip about who she’s sleeping with or revealing outfits.
Nelly sure was on CSI! I met him in a club some yrs back and he looks just as good in person and was nice
AM what makes you think we dont support Angie or Jill? They are in a different lanes and generes(sp) I have ALL of Jills cd although the last one SUCKED!! I have some of Angies cd (at least 2) I have seen BOTH in concert. This is my 1st time even buying a Rihanna cd although I loved GGGB just never bought it.
@Cinderella
I love Amel. When I mention her name people are like who?? I even go so far as to say Groove Theory and still blank stares. I had someone sing one of her songs at my wedding. Very talented and underrated just like Tamia.
@attorneymom-
I can’t I barely made it thru the AMA performace I keep wondering why that girl can’t hear herself-she sound HORRIBLE
looks and no talent sho can take you a long way in this business.. sad…
Rhi-Rhi can sing. She needs a vocal coach. Neyo helped her a little during GGGB album. She needs to practice more. She looses her breath to quickly so she hold notes then on top of it she starts cheating by using the bad notes because they are easy to do. She is not doing anything but walking across the stage and can’t hold her gift together. She needs to try harder and get serious about her craft if not she will be a has been.
RhiRhi forgot the other half of her outfit.
I do love me some Amel/Groove Theory. She is beautiful and has the voice and Bryce has the hotness!
