Rihanna – “We Found Love” music video premiere

Sandra Rose October 19, 2011

As we told you on Monday, Rihanna’s music video for her current single “We Found Love” would premiere this week. The music video highlights Rihanna’s disturbing tendency to cling to unavailable men such as Chris Brown and Matt Kemp. Then when these men predictably abuse her (verbally or physically), instead of moving on with her life she blames them for her own inadequacies and spirals emotionally out of control.

Meanwhile, Rihanna’s successor, singer Miranda Brooke (pictured above), held a meet and greet for New York’s music industry yesterday. Unlike Rihanna, Miranda is a talented singer who has a long, promising career ahead of her.

Watch Rihanna’s music video after the break.

Why do you keep comaparing this girl to Rihanna? LOL! She was on 106 & Park yesterday and she is NO Rihanna! I’m sure that she wish she was though… But I do like the song Hater.

Why is Rih talking with a British accent in the vid? I can tell the difference between a Bajan and a British accent…

Sandra is so messy… But I gotta love her…. Rihanna did the darn thing in the video… I can see her crossing over as an actress… The WFL Video is getting great reviews… Kudos to her #RihannaNavy4Life
Kat

Just watched the video…Rihanna is CRAZY! I bet that’s how she is in real life.
momo

This video was definitely for her relationship with Chris. It has too many similarities of their relationship. Will either of them let this shyt die? Either get back together or leave the shyt in the past. All this indirect shyt is old.

Pray’s Miranda doesn’t drink, smoke, lick warm places, sing off key, know anyone named Chris, have the herp, or have an accent… please Miranda keep your clothes on and your tweets locked… 3 years ago Rhianna was SR favorite now she is one chicken bone under a window still from being voodoo’d.

If anyone sees @NaijaGal tell her that the only thing I could find concerning the Adam & Eve thing is this bit from the KJV Apocrypha:

53 Upon the sixth day thou gavest commandment unto the earth, that before thee it should bring forth beasts, cattle, and creeping things:

54 And after these, Adam also, whom thou madest lord of all thy creatures: of him come we all, and the people also whom thou hast chosen.

55 All this have I spoken before thee, O Lord, because thou madest the world for our sakes

56 As for the other people, which also come of Adam, thou hast said that they are nothing, but be like unto spittle: and hast likened the abundance of them unto a drop that falleth from a vessel.

57 And now, O Lord, behold, these heathen, which have ever been reputed as nothing, have begun to be lords over us, and to devour us.

58 But we thy people, whom thou hast called thy firstborn, thy only begotten, and thy fervent lover, are given into their hands.

59 If the world now be made for our sakes, why do we not possess an inheritance with the world? how long shall this endure?

[ 2 EDRAS 6: 53-59 ]
!*LaKErCHiC@*!

u wrong auntie
Redeemed777

Maybe the Lord created ‘others’, but until I find that verse, I will leave that question open.
Redeemed777

Although that verse 56 is very very interesting…. especially since a lot of you think that God loves everybody.

I like the song and the video, it takes me back to when I was in love with the wrong guy…

You can tell this video is an OBVIOUS take on the Chris Brown situation…
NaijaGal

Ummm thanks for your research Redeemed
NaijaGal

I will say Rhianna had this look before she “went bad” so with the right machine behind her, people may become #teamairforce for her

Okay guess I will watch the video Rih annoys me I didn’t like how she played the whole Breezy situation at all! Now she wants him back! TO BAD FOR HER
!*LaKErCHiC@*!

candibfly

i haven’t heard the rih song and i’ve never heard anything by rih’s ‘successor’ either

GAGIRL87

Sandra Mae you never cease to amaze me with the chit you do and say

RiRi’s Cheers

http://chokolatemilk.blogspot.com Choco aka Hippie

I dont like the video! Maybe I don’t like her
http://chokolatemilk.blogspot.com Choco aka Hippie

Im outta of touch happily so tho! Rihanna is sending a horrid message
kingstonn

i can’t watch this on my iPad. is it on YouTube?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFwik0Lon-g&ob=av2e FeFe the Leggy Lynx

@Choco

I think I like the vid because I can somewhat feel her emotion in it…but I do agree…she may want to let it go and move on for real!
GAGIRL87

Sandra sense you cool with this uh new chick can you find out her hair color for me pls and thank you in advance
http://chokolatemilk.blogspot.com Choco aka Hippie

@Fe
The obvious drug use the scene where they are in a field is suppose to portray a rave… Her sex scenes with him aren’t bad but how flashy the video is to me is also symbolic of living life in the fast lane the message is sad imo it shows she isn’t in a good place at all
Mamacita

I was gonna say I like the video but certain parts I was like especially the end.

I’ve tried to like the song but it just doesn’t do it for me.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFwik0Lon-g&ob=av2e FeFe the Leggy Lynx

@GAGIRL

I just recognized u with the new gravie!
http://chokolatemilk.blogspot.com Choco aka Hippie

The song does nothing for me either! She loves showing her azz I don’t wanna see it nice or not
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFwik0Lon-g&ob=av2e FeFe the Leggy Lynx

@Choco

Yeah, the drug use and all that stuff was a bit much, but I think she’s being very edgy and racy with this stuff to show where her head was at or where it is still at regarding Chris. I was in this type of relationship about 7 or 8 years ago and it’s nothing nice when it comes to how much you become “consumed” with that person…she seems like she may still be depressed about the situation…she needs serious therapy…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFwik0Lon-g&ob=av2e FeFe the Leggy Lynx

she’s saying ‘we found love in a hopeless place’…the song may sound upbeat and happy, but she’s saying something very troubling in the lyrics…
candibfly

then again i ain’t think rih would blow up when i saw pon de replay

i do kinda like brooke’s hair color tho. if i ever decided to put chemicals in my hair again it would probably be something similar to that
GAGIRL87

Hey FeFe
http://chokolatemilk.blogspot.com Choco aka Hippie

@Fe
I thinks shes depressed still in love with him and feel rejected and guilty all at the same time – and yes she’s edgy but it comes off so trife imo when it comes to her
Candi Apple

Interesting…. This is her version of what went wrong? Drinking, Drugs, Fighting and sexing. Then ultimately destruction.

First step to recovery is admission.
GAGIRL87

Sandra you DO know that RiRi has a huge fan base chick has official crossed ova Mrs Brook might be another Teairra Mari #dropped. I do NOT wish ill will on the chick doe

RiRi’s Unfaithful

Story of my life
Searching for the right
But it keeps avoiding me
Sorrow in my soul
Cause it seems that wrong
Really loves my company

He’s more than a man
And this is more than love
The reason that the sky is blue
The clouds are rolling in
Because I’m gone again
And to him I just can’t be true
Candi Apple

with Sandra’s pull one down to put one up post.

I love love love this video!!!!!!!!!!!!! #slayed #getitRiRi

The song is mmkay
renegadesince1985

I actually liked the video… I think alot of people can relate to being in a destructive relationship (not necessarily the drugs etc..).. It’s better than watching somebody line dance in a leotard
http://chokolatemilk.blogspot.com Choco aka Hippie

@ Renegade

I’ve been in a destructive relationship – I know I wouldn’t want my 16 y o watching this tho in face if I had a 16 y o daughter I would have to strongly voice my opinions on Rihanna

@LAKES

YOU NEVER ANSWERED MY QUESTION!!!
Honycoatd—Going off a feeling, I see you!!!

Woot for this video. Many of us can relate to being with someone you love so much but should run from in the opposite direction while screaming for help. It is just her take on her emotions and I can see how helpless she has become in the need to rehash all those good and bad feelings she once had.
Bigbadwolf

The video was cool, it made her point. The CB look-a-like looked just as stupid wit that blonde hair. Kind of looks like Arnez

@ Fefetish

Barbados is still strongly influenced by British rule– and more than a few speak with a heavy British accent.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFwik0Lon-g&ob=av2e FeFe the Leggy Lynx

@Hony

True, but Rih doesn’t NORMALLY talk like that

and I agree with you about the video, I know I was able to watch it and remember how I felt during that time in my life…it’s like a drug, and she was depicting how her high made her feel…the whole video was like a big trip!
KsMommy

Don’t think it’s a British accent. I think she was going for Australian. It was shot in Australia I believe….
Honycoatd—Going off a feeling, I see you!!!

@ Fefetish

True she nuh chat so at all— Well then again she tapped into the “Queen’s” english and felt posh. So she borrowed it.
Honycoatd—Going off a feeling, I see you!!!

@ KSMommy it was shot outside of the UK.
KsMommy

Or maybe Irish. Maybe it was Ireland. I forget. Either way: It sucks.
Honycoatd—Going off a feeling, I see you!!!

I typically don’t tap into my cockney accent unless I am speaking to my family in the UK and then you would not realize it is me speaking.

So I guess she was just basing it off the people she was around.

And generally when I am speaking I don’t speak with a Caribbean dialect but I can pop it out when I am good and ready.
renegadesince1985

The video was shot in Ireland. The voice has an Irish accent but I don’t think it’s hers.

@ FeFe: Rihanna was referring to the Dopamine highs that most humans feel when they think they’re in love.
Candi Apple

I give Rhi-Rhi credit on her acting skills as she went in and out of character. She carried some scene’s well and others she flopped. She played the mad part the best.. Yelling for dear life

@KSMommy

I read that it was shot in the countryside of the UK

@renegade

Ok, gotcha…I thought it was her speaking, but trying to have a British/Irish spin on her voice…

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Remember when she had that boobies across the field incident. It was an Irish Farmer. And I just goggled, it was definitely Ireland.

In any event, I think she did a good job acting. I don’t particularly care much for her or the attitude she shows. I do believe she’s a lot more sensitive on the inside than the tough girl persona she portrays. I feel bad for her. She probably never learned the proper way to deal with emotions or have to have a successful relationship with a man.
Honycoatd—Going off a feeling, I see you!!!

Ireland is outside of the UK
Honycoatd—Going off a feeling, I see you!!!

Let me correct myself— It is outside of Britian and we still don’t consider Ireland much of the UK anyways.

I feel bad for her also must be lonesome at times

I see you Rhi-Rhi! Breezy about to be off them papers , so you trying to show the public the “good” in ya’lls old relationship. That sounding like an “wee little lass” at the beginning threw me off a bit, but I like the song. Cute video.
Daisy

I can’t wait to watch. Breezy said he saw A LOT in this video

Hey Iyonah
Genia

Oh and hey yalll…..I’ve been summoned now I’m here
Creamychic

I’m confused with this video, it started out like just cute then the drugs and smoking, overdosing

I love it!!! I miss my “NFL”!

Rihanna didn’t do the accent in the beginning…it was a voice over. She tweeted Agnyss Dayne did it. Anywho, loved the video. Definitely about Chris Brown

The video was intense!! Loved it tho, good job Rih
