Rihanna Covers Rolling Stone Magazine

Talent, Beauty, and Brains....do you see why I loveee her!!

In this incredible issue of Rolling Stones, Rihanna opens up about her troublesome upbringing, the highly publicized Rihanna/Chris Brown domestic dispute, and why she decided to ease the restraining order between the two.

Here's an inside look at the photoshoot:

Excerpts:

"[Chris Brown and I] don't have to talk again ever in my life. I just didn't want to make it more difficult for him professionally. What he did to me was a personal thing – it had nothing to do with his career. Saying he has to be a hundred feet away from me, he can't perform at awards shows – that definitely made it difficult for him. That was the only thing it was going to change, so I didn't care. But you can never please people. One minute I'm being too hard, and the next minute I'm a fool because I'm not being hard enough."

Rihanna says that if it weren't for singing she might have been a psychologist, and she certainly has a deep sense of empathy. "I actually feel really bad for my father," she says. He was abused too – he got beat up by his stepdad when he was young. He has resentment toward women, because he felt like his mom never protected him, and unfortunately, my mother was the victim of that. I'm not giving him excuses. Right is right and wrong is wrong. I still blame him. But I understand the source."

"I like to take charge, but I love to be submissive," she says. "Being submissive in the bedroom is really fun. You get to be a little lady, to have somebody be macho and in charge of your shit. That's sexy to me. I work a lot, and I have to make a lot of executive decisions, so when it comes to being intimate, I like to feel like I'm somebody's girl."

She loves going to the grocery store and cooking for herself; enjoys a nice chardonnay at the end of the day; forgoes weed (or at least claims to); and has a killer story about getting blackout drunk on bathtub moonshine while on vacation in Mexico. She digs true-crime reality shows like Beyond Scared Straight and Snapped ("about women who snap"), and she says the last book she read was called Mafia Princess. She's also chronically late and doesn't have a driver's license, but otherwise is as down-to-earth and un-diva-like as anyone with 1,500 pairs of shoes can be.

Katy Perry ft. Kanye West- "ET" Video

It took awhile for me to actually like this song, but it's really starting to grow on me. I liked the video right away. The concept and visuals are great.

Chris Brown- "Beautiful People" Video

I'm in love with this video and song!! I played it back to back like 5 times. Not only does it have a good message (you know I'm a sucker for a song w/ a message) but the video is hilarious/cute AND its another dance record that everyone's going to love.

I also love when artists have other artist cameos in their videos...it's just cool to see who they know #random.

The parts with Chris and T-Pain had me dying! I really think this album is going to help put Chris back on top...can you say #Comeback???

Sidebar:
I don't know why I'm just now hearing this song/seeing this video but i like it. I've never heard of Chipmunk but I'll def look into him. Love supporting up and coming artists...everybody needs love :D

Rick Ross ft. Wiz Khalifa & Wale- "RetroSuperFuture 2" Video

Selena Gomez- "Who Says" Video



This song is kinda cute. I'm a sucker for songs that make you feel better about yourself, songs that deliver messages to the heart*

Racism Hits the Billboards



Wow!

So a Texas based Pro-Life organization debuted a blatantly racist billboard in SoHo (NYC), that was thankfully taken down the next day due to outraged citizens and protestors. The group that sponsors the ad says the billboard was strictly created to raise awareness for Planned Parenthood, especially in minority communites.

The mother of the 6 year old girl in the ad wasn't even aware of it until friends pointed it out. You can imagine her outrage.

This is so ridiculous! The organization could have thought of a less offensive way to get their point across, like post the statistic on the billboard or something of that nature. But as I think about it, would the message have really gotten across if they didn't do it this way? I'm more mad at the slogan than the actual billboard. Statistics do show that African-American women do have a high abortion rate and we should take responsibility for it, but in order to reach a group of people about a cause it's better to make them understand than anger them.

Also, they should create ads including different races of children or no children at all because at the end of the day women of all cultures get abortions...it's life.

Well I don't want to go on a rant about it, but I do have a lot more to say lol. Here are some more racist pro-life ads

What do you think dreamers?
