Jay Z's Image Takes Another Hit As 'Lemonade" Album By Beyonce Has People Slamming And Mocking Him


Twitter mocks Jay Z
 
The internet continues to troll rapper Jay Z for cheating on his wife, singer Beyonce. Though Beyonce's latest album "Lemonade" is being trounced by rapper Drake's new release "Views From The Six" people continue to slam Jay Z as a terrible husband. Things have gotten so bad online for Jay Z, rumors began to surface that the rapper is prepping a response album to "Lemonade." The most hilarious title suggested thus far for the album is "Fruit Punch." Jay Z has become a joke and punch line.

Jay Z's so-called brand has taken a big hit with "Lemonade." Things are even worse than when the elevator incident saw Beyonce's sister, Solange Knowles, repeatedly punch and kick Jay Z for attempting to leave to cheat on his wife again with singer Rihanna, who is one of the rapper's mistresses. Some are trying to help the couple save face stating the latest "Lemonade" fiasco has made them $150,000,000 but it is not true. "Lemonade" has not even grossed $10,000,000 yet for the label. Beyonce's accompanying "Formation" tour still has thousands of unsold tickets all over the country. The album is hurting their brand, as many now realize they are not the couple they pretended to be.

Rihanna Angry At Rita Ora Over Jay Z


Rihanna and Rita Ora
 
Drug addicted, alcoholic singer Rihanna, is angry with her fellow Roc Nation artist and drug addict, Rita Ora. They are both the mistresses of Jay Z who owns the struggling Roc Nation label. Ora has been reckless in her adulterous behavior  with Jay Z, drawing attention to herself and Rihanna by default. For the most part, Rihanna has been more subdued about cheating with Jay Z. However, Ora has been photographed intimately hugging Jay Z.


People on Twitter became offended at the manner in which Rita Ora was intimately hugging married rapper Jay Z (right) in the same manner she would romantically embrace her ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris (left)
 
Ora also made matters worse wearing a see through bra with lemons on it, in the fallout from the release of the album "Lemonade" by Jay Z's wife, Beyonce, who has been accusing him via her lyrics of cheating on her. Rihanna is not happy with the negative attention Ora is drawing on them, as her latest CD and tour "Anti" was already flopping before the release of "Lemonade." Beyonce's album and Ora's attention seeking behavior drawing attention to Rihanna, is only creating more sales problems (Rita Ora Bragging About Cheating With Jay Z Is A Dumb Move). 

I saw this on Instagram (LOL):

Beyonce's 'Formation' Tour And 'Lemonade' Album Experiencing Big Sales Declines


Beyonce
 
Radar Online website asked if self-professed "Queen Bey" is "losing her spot on the throne." First of all, there's only one queen in music and that's Aretha Franklin. Therefore, Beyonce needs to have a seat with that garbage. Secondly, Radar asked the question due to the fact Beyonce's new "Formation" tour is flopping. Beyonce has cancelled her Nashville, Tennessee tour date due to poor ticket sales. The Sandra Rose website reports, Beyonce performed to a "half empty stadium of less enthusiastic fans" in Atlanta, Georgia. The fact of the matter is many dates on the "Formation" tour are not sold out. A tour is not sold out when people can easily go online and buy tickets. Sales are weak.  

Things are not looking well on the album front either. Beyonce's poorly written "Lemonade" album is doing less than half the number in sales of her previous 2013 self-titled album. Beyonce's 2013 album sold 1,000,000 in its debut week. "Lemonade" is on course to sell 485,000 in its debut week. Ironically, those figures include music streaming and due to the brazen dishonesty via sales tampering that repeatedly occurs at Tidal, a company she co-owns with husband Jay Z, the number is even less than the released data.

Beyonce and her cheating husband Jay Z are overexposed. It's just too much of them. They are in your face all the time. People are also tired of the treacherous couple constantly stealing copyrighted material from a number of people to prop up their careers. They have been hit with so many lawsuits that the public routinely mocks them online as "thieves" and "swagger jackers." Jay Z and Beyonce are so bold with the thefts, they are not even bothering to fully remove the original singers' vocals anymore. People are complaining all over social networking about the constant thefts. It's hurting their sales. 


Jay Z and Beyonce
 
Beyonce using her marriage problems in including items on "Lemonade" about Jay Z's rampant infidelity has also not gone over well. The public realizing the couple's relationship is not what it appears. Beyonce's uncle insisted she married Jay Z as a business arrangement, deeming him "ugly." Jay Z married Beyonce for bragging rights, while cheating with his artist Rihanna, then Rita Ora as well (among others). The marriage is a sham (Twitter Calls Jay Z Too 'Ugly' To Cheat On Beyonce). The public needs to get better role models.

It's jarring the way some are holding on to the couple's relationship for dear life, when they have nothing to do with it. A few have become so obsessed they have completely detached from reality.  A woman started a Beyonce cult, then created an altar full of Beyonce items and killed herself in front of it (23-year-old Taniya Hattersfield). Some are threatening to beat and kill Jay Z's mistresses. This is all going too far and over people you don't know, who don't care about you. They just want your money via buying their stolen products.

I read a strange and deluded item on social networking stating everyone has the same 24-hours in each day that Beyonce does, which I found hilarious. What does Beyonce do with her days, other than sit on her butt and steal from others, illegally taking payment and credit for things she did not do. Anyone can seem like they're winning doing that. However, God doesn't like ugly and there's always a price to pay for doing such things that does not make it worth it in the longrun.

Did Beyoncé’s ‘Lemonade’ Album Flop? Low First-Week Sales Despite ‘Formation’ Social Media Hype
 
May 2, 2016 - Did Beyoncé’s decision to talk about her marital problems with Jay Z backfire as far as her music is concerned? It appears so. After HBO hyped up the mysterious TV special of what became Beyoncé’s album release in the form of a televised movie, it appeared as if everybody couldn’t hide their excitement for some new music from Queen Bey herself. 

But despite having caused all this controversy with the divorce-inspired songs, the HBO special, and a devoted fanbase (who helped keep the hashtag #Lemonade trending for several days), when the album’s first-week sales were officially confirmed, they weren’t that groundbreaking, to say the least. Beyonce’s Lemonade only managed to sell 653,000 copies in its first week — 485,000 when you exclude the Tidal streaming numbers, which is puzzling considering all the work Beyoncé put into the project in order to see it follow in the footsteps of her previous self-titled record.

No Longer Queen?
 
Posted on May 2, 2016 @ 11:32AM - Beyoncé SHOCKS With Low Album Sales For ‘Lemonade,’ Cancels Upcoming Concert. The singer's world tour ticket sales have reportedly dropped too. Is Queen Bey losing her spot on the throne? After launching her Formation World Tour last week in Miami, the 34-year-old swiftly canceled an upcoming concert in Nashville. The star’s team failed to answer why she chose to pull the plug on such short notice, but speculation has mounted that the decision came after the Nashville show, unlike other cities, wasn’t sold out... 

Beyonce Plays to Half-Empty Stadium in Atlanta; Cancels Nashville Concert Due to Slow Ticket Sales 

Monday, May 2, 2016 - Reports coming out of Atlanta claim pop star Beyonce performed to a half empty stadium of less than enthusiastic fans on Sunday. The much-hyped Formation World Tour rolled into Altanta’s Georgia Dome which seats 50,000 people. It took 6 days to set up Bey’s elaborate stages which include a massive lighting and sound system, moving stages and a plexiglass walkway. 

Maybe the rain and bumper-to-bumper traffic are to blame for the half empty stadium in Atlanta? The “Hold Up” singer cancelled her May 5 Nashville concert last week after reports suggest she failed to sell out the Nissan Stadium. Her camp blamed “construction” at the Nissan Stadium. But stadium officials tweeted Saturday that they were “ready and able to host the May 5 Beyoncé show”...

Church Of Bey Worshipper Commits Suicide In Sacrifice To Beyonce 

A 23-year-old American woman committed suicide in sacrifice to the singer Beyonce who she considered “lord and saviour”, Pulse reports. US music star Beyonce Knowles is not only the singer admired by millions of people from all over the world, but also an object of worship by a group of people, the followers of National Church of Bey. 

The newly-made religion is called Beyism. The church counts hundreds of members, who call themselves Divine Divas and consider Bey’s music sacred. The deceased, Taniya Hattersfield, was reportedly a new member of the church. According to the local media, her dead body was found in the basement of her family home, College Park, Georgia, surrounded by a self-made shrine dedicated to the star. 

Taniya’s suicide note read that she made herself a sacrifice to her Beyonce, ‘lord and saviour’. Incident caused rage among people, who urged the singer to speak against Beyism. However, no reaction is said to have followed. Meanwhile the church founder claims the number of its followers increases.

Rihanna ‘Anti’ Tour Opens To Half Empty Arena Due To Massive Sales Decline


Rihanna

Some of the top urban bloggers have sounded off regarding the opening of singer Rihanna’s new “Anti” tour, which took place in Jacksonville, Florida this past weekend and her show is a complete bust. That Grape Juice blog led the charge revealing Rihanna sounded like, “Struggle and stress.” The Sandra Rose blog wondered out loud why people went to the show stating, “Rihanna’s HEAT (Half Empty Arena Tour) is better suited for concert goers with hearing loss.” 


Rihanna
 
Rihanna, who was flirting with blogger, Sandra Rose, inviting her on a previous press tour, will not be happy with the review. Rose declined as she's not desperate. Rose’s readers slammed Rihanna as well in the feedback section of the tour review article, labeling her washed up. That Grape Juice has also slammed Rihanna in the past for abandoning her Barbadian roots in trying to sound like she was born and raised in New York. It affirms that she is a manufactured artist willing to do anything for fame (including sleep with Jay Z and his industry cronies).

Rihanna Kicks Off ‘ANTI World Tour’ / How Did She Sound?

By Sam on Sunday 13th Mar 2016 - After a slew of postponements and push-backs, Rihanna finally launched her ‘ANTI World Tour’ in Jacksonville, Florida last night. The Bajan sensation has much to make up to fans following the rockiest of roll-out’s for the trek and its housing album ‘ANTI.’ 

Hoping to right the well-documented wrongs, the 28-year-old journyed through smashes such as ‘Diamonds’ and ‘Umbrella,’ as well as tackling newer numbers ala ‘Work’ and ‘Kiss It Better.’
Per the array of costumes, the production is unsurprisingly pleasing to the eye. What about the ear, though? Find out below…Sadly, Rih once again sounded like struggle and stress, case in point the footage below. It’s shocking that she’s still being allowed (by both her team and the public) to phone in these performances. Truth be told, there’d be little to harp on about if what she exhibits was the length and breadth of her ability. Yet, next to never does it ever feel like she’s turning in her heartiest effort. 

Instead, it seems like a matter of “lemme give one lazy whine and a lazier vocal and punch right on to the next city.” Said mindset is wack and, by the looks of it, so too is this tour...

Rihanna Kicks Off Her ‘ANTI’ HEAT (Half Empty Arena Tour) in Jacksonville

Thatgrapejuice.net reports that Rihanna sounded like “struggle and stress” on Saturday night. He added that Rihanna’s HEAT Tour is better suited for concert goers with hearing loss. Rihanna’s HEAT tour is probably the first half empty arena tour by an artist in support of a flop album...

Rihanna's Career In Freefall As Album Flops, Grammy Appearance Was Cancelled And Tour Postponed

 
Rihanna aging poorly due to massive drug and alcohol use
Rihanna's "Anti" album fiasco continues full speed. The album was deliberately leaked by Jay Z and Tidal, a foolish move that resulted in a public mudslinging match between the company and Universal Music. Jay Z's Roc Nation lied about a $25,000,000 deal from Samsung regarding an upcoming Rihanna tour, when the company didn't even promise half that figure. 

 
Rihanna

Samsung also paid $1 per album for 1,000,000 copies of "Anti" which were immediately disqualified by the Billboard charts, as the public did not buy them, one corporation did so. To save face, Jay Z lied stating Rihanna had sold 400,000 copies of "Anti" during the first week of sales, when only 460 copies were purchased by the public. News also surfaced that ticket sales for Rihanna's "Anti" tour are very poor. Sales are so bad they have been giving many tickets away, far more than usual, through contests and to radio stations in promotions, to fill the unsold, empty seats.

 
Rihanna

This past Saturday, Rihanna abruptly cancelled her Grammy awards appearance, where she was slated to perform. Rihanna claimed bronchitis, but people noted she was seen out the day before and did not look or sound sick. This week it was announced Rihanna's "Anti" tour has been postponed, despite the fact it was due to begin at the end of this month (February 28, 2016). That's enough time to recover and Rihanna largely lip-syncs anyway. 

 
Rihanna looks like Left Eye in this photo

Roc Nation and Universal are going into meltdown, as is Rihanna, due to her sales being in the toilet across the board. Roc Nation and Universal were afraid Rihanna's frequently delayed "Anti" album would flop (and now it has) but they didn't expect it to do this poorly or for the tour to suffer such weak sales. They have been actively trying to cover up what has transpired, but with sales flops, it is an exercise in futility, as it means money is not being made, but loss on the corporate end (and for the recording artist).

Mariah Carey's '#1 To Infinity' Album Being Branded Biggest Chart Flop Of The Year


Mariah Carey

After a rough stretch of bad publicity and scandal, Mariah Carey's "#1 To Infinity" album was released and flopped on the Billboard charts. Some are branding it the biggest mainstream album flop of the year thus far, debuting with 32,000 copies sold. This constitutes Carey's lowest sales debut to date. Carey wants to be out there so badly, though she is not in a state to do so, as evidenced by her disastrous Las Vegas residency. This eagerness to be on the music scene with new material, combined with bad publicity online, is proving detrimental to career's career.

Carey has released commercially and critically failed albums back to back. First "Elusive Chanteuse" and now "#1 To Infinity" (Mariah Carey And Nick Cannon Headed For Divorce After He Does Interview About His Sexual Conquests). This is not a good idea for a mainstream artist. Carey should have taken time off to get things in order. Quality over quantity. The late Whitney Houston, who is truthfully the best selling female artist of all time, did not release an album until she felt she had gotten it right.

Album Sales Have Greatly Fallen In America In A Pattern Worrying Record Labels


A look at the top 10 albums in America reveals sales are down. Way down. The past year has been a rough one for record labels in America, as albums are not selling well in the states. The top 10 for the past month (even year) show albums barely reaching gold during their shelf life, as the current projects by each artist are selling on average 200,000-300,000 copies. 


Considering how expensive albums are to record, with some producers charging between $50,000 to $250,000 per song (or beat) in addition to music videos, buying airplay, marketing and advertising costs reaching into the millions, labels are hemorrhaging money on projects with low financial yield. 


Singles are selling okay, but when you think about the fact artists get a few cents for each one sold, then 20-30 cents per unit goes to retailers and the rest the label and associates, that’s not much money. A time is coming when there will be mergers of well known labels to try to stay in business in the face of what has happened.

Jay Z And Beyonce ‘On The Run’ Tour Is Bombing With Tens Of Thousands Of Unsold Tickets


A website mocks Jay Z's fight with Solange, spoofing the couple's tour title "On The Run"

According to the blog Rhymes With Snitch the “On The Run” tour featuring troubled couple, Beyonce and Jay Z, is suffering from poor ticket sales. The 19 tour dates have tens of thousands of unsold tickets. This means fans are on the run from Jay Z and Beyonce. The beleaguered couple, who is facing problems in their marriage due to Jay Z’s rampant cheating, saw things go viral, as Beyonce’s sister Solange, beat the rapper in an elevator over his infidelities and trying to ditch his wife at the Met Gala to go have sex with one of his mistresses, Rihanna. 

 

One of many memes mocking Jay Z online, placing his face over Oprah Winfrey's in the movie "Color Purple" stating the famous line "You told Harpo to beat me" but replacing it with "You told Solange to beat me"

The couple became the butt of jokes all over the internet over the internet fight, in a matter industry people state Jay Z is still angry about. Solange killed his image and with certain stars image is everything. In the public’s eyes the mystique surrounding the couple has been shattered and their brand permanently impacted in a negative way. Hence the poor ticket sales.

Go Daddy’s Preparing For IPO As Their Customers Are Being Gouged

 
Go Daddy

Go Daddy became a name in domain registration and hosting, as they started off as a small company, offering the lowest prices. As a result, they gained many customers and the company gained billions in revenues. 

However, Hollywood stepped into the picture, nagging and harassing Go Daddy to support such items as SOPA and do their bidding in removing sites from the internet (canceling hosting) the entertainment industry took issue with (some for copyright infringement, other over free speech in conduct that is unconstitutional and fraudulent). As a result ,Go Daddy lost 40,000,000 in one month. Since joining forces with Hollywood, GO Daddy has been steadily loosing hundreds of millions of dollars per year, as attested by published company financial data revealing the significant losses. 

The ironic thing is Go Daddy is worth more than each studios in Hollywood, yet they‘ve allowed them to lead them down a bad business path. Hollywood and the music industry have been experiencing record revenue declines, several on the brink of financial collapse, yet this is who Go Daddy is listening to in the business world, to take them down with them.

Now in preparation for its IPO, Go Daddy has been gouging customers. People chose their service for the low prices. However, Go Daddy has raised the prices of domains. They’ve also cancel renewal coupons customers rely on to gain discounts on their domains. As it stands, Go Daddy is no longer the lowest price domain and hosting company. They’ve raised prices on products between 15-70%. That’s no way to do business. That’s how you lose customers.

Go Daddy has a lot of disgruntled customers due to these price hikes, who are online vowing on various sites, to take their business elsewhere. Go Daddy needs to get it together before they make this IPO, lest it turn into a disaster over customers who are headed for the door.

GoDaddy Files for U.S. IPO of Internet Domain Name Marketplace

Jun 10, 2014 12:01 AM ET June 20 (Bloomberg) - Bloomberg’s Leslie Picker reports on GoDaddy’s IPO plans and looks into the company’s business history and how it may use cash gained from the offering. She speaks on Bloomberg Television’s “Market Makers.” “It’s Go Time” for GoDaddy Inc.’s initial public offering. The tag line from the company’s advertisements also reflects the beginning of its official process to tap the public markets. GoDaddy, based in Scottsdale, Arizona, filed with a $100 million placeholder, without specifying the number or price range of shares it will sell, according to yesterday’s prospectus. Those details will be provided closer to the IPO. 

The company has raised its profile in recent years with advertising campaigns featuring celebrities like race-car driver Danica Patrick and Israeli model Bar Refaeli. Almost 13 percent of the $1.1 billion GoDaddy posted in revenue at the end of 2013 was spent on advertising and marketing. The company’s loss narrowed last year to about $200 million, from $279 million in 2012, according to the filing. At the end of last year, GoDaddy had 57 million domains under management, the filing shows. The company derives most of its revenue from selling the domains and Web-hosting products...

Instagram Shuts Down Rihanna's Page Over Nude Photos

 
Rihanna

Attention seeking singer Rihanna ran afoul of Instagram, who had issued her repeated warnings to stop posting nude and semi-nude photos. She continued engaging in this conduct, a violation of Instagram rules and the company banned her from the site. Her fans logged on only to find her Instagram page gone. Rihanna tried to turn Instagram into a porn site and they were not having it.    


Drake and Rihanna a few weeks ago on stage during his tour. He's since flown in a woman from Instagram to take Rihanna's place

Rihanna's nude and semi-nude photos have been heavily criticized and slammed on social networking as lacking and desperate. It's at the point it's not even about the music anymore. With all the indecent exposure, her sales are still weak. It's telling when you take your clothes off and still can get strong sales for a CD. Not to mention, it's setting a bad example for her impressionable audience.

Chris Brown’s Career On The Rise Again As He Scores #1 Song While Rihanna’s Sales Continue To Decline


Singer Chris Brown, who is currently in rehab, had a setback with his planned CD “X” due to checking himself into rehab for anger management, among other things (which was the right thing to do). Instead, Brown released a mix tape to his fans. However, as the beleaguered singer sits in rehab, he was given some good news. His new single “Show Me” with Kid Ink has gone to number one on the Billboard rap and airplay charts.


Brown is scheduled to be released from rehab next month and faces another hearing in a shoddy assault case against him in Washington, DC, which negatively impacted his probation in Los Angeles. Brown is also facing an additional hearing in Los Angeles regarding his probation.


Meanwhile, Brown’s sometime girlfriend, Rihanna, who keeps displaying her open jealously of his love, Karrueche Tran, has been struggling with her career. Lost sales, endorsements and millions, coupled with a shaky lawsuit she filed against her accounts Berdon, which is working against her, has the pop tart stressed. Rihanna's singles have not been performing well on the charts and many copies of her latest CD that were shipped out to retailers around the world, going towards her album certification, remain unsold sitting on store shelves.

Justin Bieber's 'Believe" Movie Bombs As Fans Stay Away In Droves



Justin Bieber

Maybe telling one's fans on Christmas Eve that one is quitting music for good is not a great idea. Just ask pop singer Justin Bieber. His new documentary movie "Believe" released this past week, bombed like it's nobody's business, just days after he announced his premature retirement at age 19.


Before (left) and after (right). Justin Bieber is not looking himself of late due to drug use, alcoholism and heavy partying

 Yesterday, Bieber announced he's not really retiring. As stated on the site two weeks ago, it was a sales gimmick (Is Justin Bieber Really Quitting Music) but it has backfired. However, Bieber truly is suffering from burnout and harassment from Hollywood cults (Senior Citizen Justin Bieber Again States That He Is Retiring). One thing's for sure, Bieber's new bad boy image is eroding his fan base.

Box Office: Bieber Doc 'Believe' Bombs, Most Fans a No Show 

1:27 PM PST 12/28/2013 - The film may only take in $4.5 million in its first five days, a fraction of what Justin Bieber's "Never Say Never" made and by far the worst showing among concert documentaries featuring the Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus and One Direction.


The performer's second concert documentary Believe is turning in a dismal performance at the Christmas box office, where it has earned only $3.1 million in its first three days. On Friday, it fell below $1 million to $790,000 for a 14th place finish.

Believe is now only expected to take in $4.5 million over the course of its five-day debut (Wednesday through Sunday), including a meek weekend haul of $2.2 million. Granted, the movie is said to have cost only $5 million to make, but Believe will do only a fraction of the business that Bieber's Never Say Never enjoyed in February 2011.

Never Say Never, opening to $29.5 million in North America, posted a lifetime domestic gross of $73 million, making it the most successful concert film of all time domestically. Most box office observers say Believe may only hit $10 million.

Believe is badly trailing similar concert documentaries. In August, One Direction: This Is Us debuted to $15.8 million on its way to earning $28.9 million (even that was considered something of a disappointment)...
Still, there's no denying that many of Bieber's fans are staying away. Rivals question why Open Road -- owned by giant exhibitors Regal and AMC -- decided to open Believe on Christmas, the most crowded time of the year.

Lady Gaga's Flopped $25 Million CD 'Artpop' Getting Record Company Employees Fired



Lady Gaga

Three years ago singer Lady Gaga was the hottest thing in music. However, things have changed and her new CD "Artpop" has flopped, costing the label the $25,000,000 they spent to make it. The CD has now been labeled "Artflop" by audiences. So where did she go wrong.

Lady Gaga is no Madonna, as Lady Gaga has talent, where the former does not. Lady Gaga can sing and play the piano. But she began relying on gimmicks and weirdness for attention, which killed her career. There's a trend that's been present in the industry for the past few years of artists trying to be as weird and crazy as possible. Audiences aren't into it.



Lady Gaga's meat outfit was too much

As a result, the music isn't good anymore in a concerted effort to be different and weird and the imagery is so crazy that people have tuned out. This is not good news for a career. The shock tactics wear off fast and one is left with an audience who is not being entertained.

What happened to Lady Gaga?

December 14, 2013 | 9:16pm - It’s already known as ARTFLOP. On Nov. 6, amid the kind of hype not seen since Michael Jackson floated a statue of himself down the Thames River, Lady Gaga released her third studio album, “ARTPOP.” And not since Jackson has such a globally famous, white-hot pop star had such a rise and precipitous fall: “ARTPOP” is on track to lose $25 million for her label, Interscope, prompting ­rumors of imminent layoffs.

But it’s not just album sales. When Gaga opened this year’s MTV Video Music Awards, her performance was eclipsed by the twerking Miley Cyrus. Gaga’s work as both host and performer on a recent “Saturday Night Live” was underwhelming, and her recent ABC special, “Lady Gaga & The Muppets’ Holiday Spectacular,” had a dismal 0.9 rating among viewers ages 18 to 49, with just 3.6 million viewers total.

Karrueche Tran's phone has been stolen, according to info posted on her Twitter page. The question is will anything in the phone regarding her relationship with Brown hit the press. 
 
Meanwhile, back in Los Angeles, Rihanna's ex-boyfriend, whom she is brokenhearted and lonely over, has been getting it in with girlfriend Karrueche Tran. The two have been having passionate sex on a regular basis. It's clear Brown isn't thinking about Rihanna when he is, what's the term being used now, "slaying" Tran.

While the Judiciary Report does not promote premarital sex, what happened between Rihanna and Brown is a lesson in what happens when love is abused. People end up hurting each other and losing the love of their lives due to poor decisions, ego and self-interest in preserving and promoting a career that was not meant to last. There's no guarantee the money will be there either, as so many entertainers end up broke, broken and devastated without the one they love.
