Twitter Beef Round 1, 2, 3, and 4. Rihanna Vs. Everyone?


Misunderstandings, arguments, conflict. It's all part of human nature. However many are beginning to question superstar Rihanna's intentions after several Twitter beef run-ins with fellow singers. She's even taken a jab at comedian Joan Rivers. While some dismiss her behavior as playful and innocent fun, others call it outright "Cyber Bullying." So let's rewind and start from the beginning. Trust me it's all very minuscule and petty but you'll understand my question better with an entire timeline. In 2012, Rihanna admitted to Oprah that she was still in love with Chris Brown despite their highly publicized 2009 domestic dispute. The result of that dispute left Rihanna badly bruised and beaten. To that revelation, Joan Rivers tweeted "Rihanna confessed to Oprah Winfrey that she still loves Chris Brown. Idiot! Now it's MY turn to slap her." Rihanna did not find the humor in her comment, snapping back she said "wow u really do get slow when you're old huh? slap on some diapers". She later removed that tweet and simply modified it to "slap on some diapers." 
That beef has since died down. On to the next. Ciara. Rihanna and Ciara were formerly friends until an appearance on E!'s Fashion Police where Ciara alluded to an incident where she felt that Rihanna was less than friendly. All hell broke loose following this appearance and despite several interviews where both say there's no shade, it looks as though there's enough shade to cover an entire day of sunshine. Most recently Ciara posted an Instagram video of her singing her own song "Body Party" acapella in Paris. Following her post, Rihannas' well know assistant and friend Melissa Forde (not to be confused with video vixen Melissa Ford) posted a tweet mimicking Ciara.

Now Rihanna is into it yet again, this time with Teyana Taylor. Some of you may recognize the upcoming singer from MTV's Sweet Sixteen. It showcased privileged teens whos parents were willing to spend six-figures and sometimes more on their child's sixteenth birthday! Currently she is signed to Kayne West's G.O.O.D music label. She was also cast in Tyler Perry's Madea's Big Happy Family as Sabrina, Byron's (Bow Wow) ghetto ex-girlfriend, the mother of his son and "the baby mama from Hell". She is a very talented vocalist who also, like Ciara, placed a video on Instagram of her singing Anita Baker's Rapture of Love, to which Rihanna responded to by having a male friend sing the exact same song, with a curly wig that mimicks the hair style of Taylor. I posted both videos below for you to compare and decide.




Once again, a Twitter war has erupted, only this time Rihanna may have met her match. Teyana sent a number of tweets to Rihanna. 
Don’t play wit me rihanna f-ck all this industry sh-t, YOU & I know each other VERY well. Throwing subs 4 wat? u got my #, don’t show off.
y’all could bully everybody else & get away wit that sh-t but that sh-t ain’t gone work ova here. so y’all could miss me with that NAVY sh-t
i sing caught in the rapture on IG then she posts her boy singing the same song, the same part, with curly hair and a snap back??? petty is petty and shade is shade, b**ch knew what the fuck she was doing

Rihanna fired shots back by posting a screenshot of a website casting the difference in their net worth. She ultimately concluded  

"I REFUSE to help your career…you will NOT get an @ from me! Not til you pay me! #iRefuse 
I hate broke b-tches."

So my question to you all is what is your opinion? Do you feel that Rihanna is throwing shade? Or is this just another run of the mill publicity stunt. I'm not sure what to make of it. I think anyone of that stature making that much money shouldn't have time for nonsense. But hey, what do I know?

"I bet it sucks to be you right now." Beyonce's Ex-Boyfriend regrets cheating on Beyonce.

Hey everyone. So sorry I haven't been posting, I'm back! Soooo let's get to it. I was reading my girl Necole Bitchie's site today (necolebitchie.com) and came across a story about Lyndell Locke a.k.a. the dumbest man in America. Now before you say I'm harsh I will elaborate. Lyndell Locke is the ex boyfriend of the one and only Beyonce Knowles. The two had a lengthy history from a church youth group at the age of 13, Beyonce was just 11. He described Beyonce as the Christian "good girl" who didn't believe in sex before marriage. He did talk about their first kiss to which he said

 "It was just after Beyonce’s 15th birthday. I surprised her with Brian McKnight concert tickets and it happened that night. I had got popcorn and as we were sitting in our seats I dropped it. As we both went down to grab it we bumped heads, and locked into our first kiss.We both just looked at each other realizing there was this incredible spark of fireworks between us. It was that fairytale kiss you only hear about in the movies. That was the first feeling of true love between me and Beyonce. Still, to this day, I’ve never had another kiss as passionate as that one." 

The two continued to date for nine years, and with her career with Destiny's Child taking off and sex still a big no-no Locke said he couldn't hold out any longer. Here he explains the deal breaker in their relationship.

"The bigger star she became, the more I didn’t think I was good enough. One night, when she was out of town, I went to a bar with friends and ended up sleeping with another woman. Over the course of a few years I cheated on her about five times, but I never told her until after we broke up. She was such a great girl who cared about me deeply, she even wrote her hit Dangerously in Love while we were together. That’s how in love we were back then. Initially my intention was to take a break from our relationship so I could go to culinary school and make a name for myself. But when I headed to Austin to do the course she quickly moved on with her own life. Once she began dating Jay Z, I knew we were doomed and I could never win her back. But I know that no matter what, she will always love me. I will always wonder ‘What if?’ and, given all we shared, I’m sure a part of her must feel the same way."

While Beyonce is singing "Best Thing You Never Had" in dedication to him, I have a feeling Lydell is singing "Song Cry" by Jay-Z. Holding on to the line  "I mourn forever ****, I have to live with the fact I did you wrong forever!"
