I've just realized I'm just as guilty as the people for whom this blog was started. It wasn't her per say. It was her fans. Every blog post is in DIRECT response to something said by someone somewhere on some platform in regards to the two. We talked about it and hated it. So the blog was started.
HA! I'm doing the very thing I complained about and to great extent.
I'm done!
Good day.
How am I just gettin it now? Ms Knowitall I suppose.....

I'M DONE
Speaking of Copyright Infringement & Rihanna, Remember Phillip Paulus?
We @ RihannaSucks sure do!
Remember the 19 yr old's press release disgusted with creative directors PAID by artist with no creative input of their OWN?
Wonders if his suit is in the near future for Rihcycle and Def Scam?
Hmmm... also wonders if photographer Camilla Ă…krans gone come get her some.....
hey... do you suppose this is why Rihcycle's FIVE VIDEOS were snubbed during the MTV Video Music Awards Nominations?
Rihanna Could Stand Trial For "S&M" Copyright Claims [Photos]
Rihanna, Def Jam Sued Over “S&M” Video
Rihanna and her label Def Jam Music must face litigation over the pop star's “S&M” video, which fashion photographer David LaChapelle claims unlawfully depicts a number of his copyrighted works.
LaChapelle alleges the video's director Melina Matsoukas was told by Ri Ri's camp to make a "LaChapelle-esque music video,” even using his prints to story board the shots.
After the video's initial release in January a suit followed on February 14.
The “Man Down” singer's camp issued a motion to dismiss in April, but U.S. District Judge Shira Scheindlin recently concluded in each instance of accused copyright infringement that the concepts were not protectable, but the execution was.
The number of similarities was enough for Scheindlin to allow the lawsuit to continue.
According to the court order, the defense argued if they did use the photographs, it was to "critic[ize] how Rihanna is treated by the press and comment on her relationship with the media."
"Commenting on and criticizing Rihanna's treatment by the media is unrelated to the photographs and does not require copying protectable (sic) elements of LaChapelle's work," Judge Scheindlin countered.
LaChapelle also sued producer Los Angeles-based Black Dog Films and UMG Recordings, the corporate parent of Def Jam.
The two sides will meet Aug. 10.

Amy Winehouse, Kelly Rowland, Khia... Random Thoughts
First off RIP to Amy Winehouse and sincere condolences to her family and friends. 27 is much too young to die.
Kelly Rowland honey... we love you.. we really do, but just know you can get it too. We have no choice but to snatch you up whenever your fans try Beyonce. Hey gurl... it's nothing personal... Destiny's Child will forever and always be the BEST FEMALE SINGING GROUP!
Khia... gurl you know you pushed us to the limit trynna come for Beyonce... but the shit you said made no sense so we let it go. Beyonce is Baby Michael Jackson and not one youtube video nor tweet can change that shit! But I digress.. what I want to say to you is... I'm actually proud of you for going at DJ Envy. That Breakfast Club tries so hard to be Wendy part duex and it just ain't working. The way they treated Lil Mama was tacky and trifling. Kudos to you for standing your ground! HOWEVER... Spell check... get familiar.
Next on your list should be Charlamagne... who looks like he runs around hunched over crying out my preeeecious while looking for a particular ring. He's an easy target.
To wind up....
Beyonce win... you lose... the end
