Posted by Bossip Staff

Wow…I really needs to start doing my squats again…
^need
hey ri ri
Yes, I think I am FIRST! What a trap by the way!
here y’all go w/ your LIVESTEEZ plug…
BOOOOOOO!
Are those beady beads on her neck? What is going on with her kitchen? WTF?
hohoo, I am not that surprised at all. I saw her profile on the celebrities/rich men seeking affairs site S u g a r M i n g l e. c o m last week. It said she is interested in seeking a rich man for sugar daddy on that site!
*sigh* The song is mediocre, definitely not history worthy
I think that is suppose to be a tattoo on the back of her neck, but her kitchen is f*cked up!
4 years, 7 months, and 16 days left, she better put out all of the dumb ballads she can! BTW: that song is awlful! I cannot lie..She has one song, only one that I like, and it isn’t because I think that she sang the h*ll out of the song. IT because I like the beat, and I can ride my bike to it! So, I am admitting that I like : PLEASE DON’T STOP THE MUSIC..no sweat, but I like Beyonce better! I just had to throw that in there
Off Topic but uuummm … she has no butt whatsoever [understanding shakes head ... exits thread]
how many stacks could you cash in 5 years??!!
Damn Rihanna is clever for real! The girl cannot sing but she is still there stacking cash! Damn, i might have to propsect for a label NOW!!
cuz my gurl gots it going on…and she has improved vocally since then..luv her
Bossip should really stop hating on this young lady. She has an awesome stage presence and is pretty darn photogenic, and I must agree with k.k. that her vocals have def improved. So get off her. She is HOT…hate it or love it and I LOVE IT!!!!
GO RI RI!
I absolutely love this song…Ri Ri is really holdin it down for the ladies….if you don’t love you song maybe you just havent been cheated on…NeYo did this song anyway..and the majority of his writings are bangers…btw rihanna is drop dead sexy in this video no homo
I dont get the hype over rhianna. Yea her songs are catchy but she CAN’T sing and I dont care for her dancing neither.
she has talent looks what your writing about someone that’s about to make history and has no talent that’s an oxy moron
The song is okay. But she’s milking it and making her change so I cannot be mad at her!
… uummm, just wondering, is she serious with that get-up?
SHE HAS A GOOD MARKETING TEAM , THAT WHY!!
There’s no vocal improvement, the improvement is the song not the vocals. She just makes you loose hope in the music industry. A $0.99 cent song did that the label is smart they know when too shoot her out when everyone else that was high went down that marketing team is the one on fire. All this up will just make the down harder and funnier for the real world she still gets no props here.
I heard her live and them backup singers are the true stars all them bad reviews she has gotten was well deserved.
she really needs to do something about those nappy beads running down her neck can you say roaches
I don’t like the song at all. It sounds like Irreplaceable part II. So it really is no suprise that it’s a hit.
No, it doesn’t take talent to have hit songs. Be for real.
Hmm…she interest me! Her singing isn’t the best, but it’s certainly not the worse. I think she’s made a household name for herself due to her style and bold attitude/spirit. I can do without the backside photo of her right about now, but her fashion sense is definitely on point.
Go Rihanna!!
I personally like that song. It is not the greatest of all time, but I personally like it.
I just wanna insert my tongue in her anus.
Why do so many of you idiots feel that you have to compare Rihanna to Beyonce… There style, looks, and singing are different. So plz stop hating. Beyonce has been on the scene for how long? Rihanna is just getting her feet wet. Let her do her thing. And whether she can sing or not is not the issue. Shes marketable, thats all that matters. Geez!
*Their
wow. that song is so horrible. wow.
EWWW WHAT IS WRONG? ARE YOU SMELLING YOURSELF? GET OVER YOURSELF, AND STOP WONDERING WHY THE NEXT PERSON DO WHAT THEY DO! LAME!
Rhianna is drop dead gorgeous but she still can’t sing or dance. Take a Bow is just awful, and she is even worse in a live performance.
If you really want to hear a REAL singer sing “Take a Bow” check out Leona Lewis’ song featuring the same title on her debut album. Now that girl can SANG.
Will Thank GOD for REAL Talent like Mary J. & Alicia K. and others who I Listen to that’s the REAL TALENT Real Music That Touch a Sista’s Soul. But Rihanna is cool for the bubble gum people out there into that type of bubble gum music. I like Umbrella thats about it.
just a bit curious..the magazine HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP reported her profile was found on the famous rich men seeking affairs site c e l b m i n g l e.c o m last week and she was seeking her sugar daddy there. wow!!
This no talent ho is fugly as hell and cant sing or dance for shit. She betta keep using Chris for publicity because he the only thing keeping her relevant. No talent no ass no hips cant sing cant dance done fucked everybody in the industry and opens her legs and shows her flat ass on stage. She is a disgrace to both music and women. Ugh! Fugly no talent ho!!!!!
I’M TIRED OF ALL YA’LL HATING & YA AT BOSSIP BE HATING HARD WTF??? SHE LOOKS BETTER THAN U PROBABLY EVER WILL ANYWAY AND SHES NOT THE BEST SINGER BUT YES SHE CUD SING I WAS AT DA MIAMI GLOW IN DA DARK N SHE CAN SING SO YA NEED TO STOP HATIN & TAKE A BOW IS HOT….”SAY HI TO ALL MY HATERZ!!!!”
AND SHE DO HAVE A BODY
Well she doing something right if she got this far.
Not a Rihanna fan by any step of the imagination, but I actually like “Take A Bow.”
I meant “stretch” of the imagination - LOL!
Her record label probably bought those digital downloads to give her whack ass tune a spot on regular rotation across the country. One learns and develops faith through conditioning and repetition.
The music industry is greedy and in this rough economic time they are positioning themselves for profit since this decade began they have really suffered from illegal downloads so they are doing their best to sell us sex with their no talent line up through conditioning and repetition.
It all sucks but business is business and as long as there’s a dime in our pockets they’ll be trying to get it.
all i know is MR FLORIDA would insert his tongue in her anus.
why yall keep showing this photo?
I dont want to see Chris Brown’s bulls eye.
NOw im getting mental visions, its disgusting!! lol
“Take A Bow” is just a bootleg version of Beyonce’s “Irreplaceable”
Def jam bought those digital songs! And when the album is going to come out their probably going to buy 100 000 copies so she wont be humiliated cause with usher realeasing his album the same week i really dont know who the hell is going to go buy her re-release which is actually the same album as gggb with 3 new songs in them and whe have already hard 2 of them.
Besides you guys Rihannas already recording her 4th album so she aint gone yet she still has to pay back all the money she ows Def Jam.
Rihanna is talented…& smart. All it takes is a catchy song, pretty face & popularity. Janet can’t sing A note..not one but she’s entertaining. I could name 3 - 4 others (all of which are uber pop-u-lah. lol). At any rate, that’s all. lol
SHE SUCK, AND SHE DOESN’T HAVE A BODY! WTF ARE U LOOKING AT?
LMAO i was gonna say the same thing about DEF JAM buying those singles. for real who is checking for that bitch? she cant sing, cant dance and i fuckin hate her accent. shes got the ugliest west indian accent ive ever heard in my life! and my moms is jamaican!
riri is suckin some good dick over there in def jam to be getting this much shine, her marketing team is working overtime to make sure shes kept in the public eye. shes probably using poor c. breezy just for publicity.
her and cassie need to go back to wherever they came from and leave the real singing to real artist who have talent!
no talent hoes!
The song sucks and she sounds terrible. I know she can’t sing but this is the worst. Number 1? Def Jam & Brezzy got something to do with that.
Wow Nassatal!!!!!
I would’nt criticize Rihanna is he could do one of the 3 following things: sing, dance, or write. The fact that she can do neither of the 3 is a testament to a regression to the old days where Barry Gordy pushed Diana Ross because she was marketable and pure soul songs didn’t make it because they were too black, Rihanna is the epitome of this movement. It’s also interesting to me how she has smash singles but her album sales are nowhere near the level of ALicia, Mary, Beyonce, and Mariah. But I guess the scuffed up knees approach always works ask Cassie and Ashanti.
Her vocals aren’t any worse than Beyonce’s when she first came out. Beyonce has mediocre vocals. All this is a bunch of hating for no reasons. Why pick on her?
I like this song. Rihanna is more an image than real talent. She’s very cute. Like her mucho.
Go nassatal, I mean Rihanna. ( her butt is flat you do’nt see where her legs end and her “butt” begins)
Was this pic taken from a dominatrix PHOTO SHOOT? ? ?
Only black people hate her. You are some of the most hating on bunch of losers. Beyonce can’t sing, but you treat her like a real singer. If singing is what really matters, why aren’t you people out their worshipping Jennifer Hudson or Alice Smith, real singers. This pop, and it what it is. I just don’t see the need for the hate. I like a lot of her songs, and the fact that she is willing to push the envelope with her music instead of doing the staid “R&B, water-downed, Beyonce/Ashanti/Cassie” b.s. People who like dance music appreciate her.
*out there
um. yeah the song is #1 now so made history. i wouldnt say she doesnt have talent but she sure isnt one with the best vocals in the industry.
but you got to love her!!!
she made*
beyonce stans are so jealous of rihanna
Love that Bajan gal!! Love Maroon 5 and Rhianna together. She’s definitely carving out a niche for herself that’s separating her from the pack!!
rihanna you are young and youthful keep
doing what you are doing….many people might think
that you dont have any talent, but you know what, i am quit sure they dont live the life you live.
enjoy your life
fyi - i cant imagine what you life would be if you had talent
@ real you are so funny, Rihanna has nice songs with a bad voice. Why bring B in this when you know good adn darn well that riri cant sing a lick. I saw the video on youtube with her and Chris she cant even dance and I loved how she let him do all the work once he got on stage this chick is boring if is was not for Umbrella she would be a Who right about now the label continues to force feed the people. They need to investigate this rise cause this song dont get that much airplay.
She got a cute lil booty.
Yeah!! Go Rihanna… she is here to stay indeed.
Bossip you are a loser bias blog that is infested with hating hags and fags. I have a title for you “Who Cares About Bossip”… the last time I checked mediatakeout and youngblackandfabulous were the it black blogs. WACK!!!!!
Rihanna you make me proud! I would just like to add that the first time I heard the song “Take A Bow” I downloaded it; I just had to have it!
Haters keep motivating…
I wouldn’t be surprised if JJJ was acting as different people commenting on how lovely rihanna is! I mean…I read the one that said..that Rihanna’s voice isn’t bad like Beyonce…LMAOO that was so funny! I swear! HOW come every magazine article about this broad…always say stuff about her S*M outfits and what color finger nail polish she wears…never about real talent
COME ON STANS..SHE SUCKS!
I don’t care what nobody says, she CAN’T sing. PERIOD.
This is song is boring! It don’t make no sense i agree with sweet gal! Def Jam bought those singles because Umbrella was a hot record and didn’t break no record neither did Don’t stop the music and this irreplaceble part 2 does? Def Jam always do this kind of stuff they did it with Kanye and Rick Ross! No1 was expecting this, that means that no1 really bought it!
rihanna is doing her thing
everyone keep saying she cant sing
do you guys really think that beyonce can sing
to me they are both entertainers not necessarly
great singers….they both have that annoying voice
but i love rihanna more
chow
she looks great! keep up the good work rihanna!
Again, what does Beyonce have to do with Rihanna?
I went to listen to the song and I have to say the shit is boring as hell.
It seems like it is a desperate attempt to touch the R&B and POP fans alike.
But yes, it does suck.
SHE HAS A VERY LOVELY BOOTY!!!
Based on this pic can all finally agree that she is a prostitute?
Ya’ll need to stop hating on her. To me that song is good
STOP HATING ON RIHANNA SHE GOT A BODY THATS WHY SHE LOOKS SO GOOD SHE LOOKS LIKE A MODEL…WHOEVER SAYIN SHE UGLY N HAS NO BUDDY MUST HAV A SLOPPY ASS FUK U!!! SHE LOOK GD
Rihanna is very natural in front of the camera. I give her props for her video Take A Bow, beacuse she is great to look at, she dont do any of that over dramtic posing and “acting”. Think she could be a great actress actually. Unlike a few other singers/artists.
Her song with Maroon 5 is going to be a # 1 hit as well!
I read about this, she went from #53 to #1 on the Billboard chart in a week, that is good keep up the good work
@ Celebrity CSI…
Difference is Janet can dance her ass off. If you can’t sing, you’ve gotta compensate for it in another department. Ask Ciara.
And Beyonce ain’t got shit to do with Rihanna and vice versa, so stop bringing one up when talking about the other.
When your are manufactured in the music game you just go with the flow. I don’t expect this tart to be around in a few years. I give her two at the most.And that’s being kind.
They took her dried up ass from the island, made her up like a Brazilian hottie and cast her off as dominatrix!! Give me a break! And she’s still a kid!But folks will do anything for them stacks apparently.
Come on people. Music is dead. Art is dead and God is still alive.
Well her singing is not good by any stretch…but the words to this song….women definitely relate…that is why it is a hit…I think the public is movin up a notch when it comes to music…its time to start listening to the words in songs instead of just being interested in a good voice and a good track
LOL SOME PPL CAN BE FOOLISH. STOP GIVIN REQONITON TO HATAZ DONT YOU KNOW WHEN YOU FEED THE HATAZ THEY MUTLTIPLY???? LOL WHY WOULD ANYONE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND LOVE A HATA…WHEN U CAN SHED REQONITION TO A LOVA..SOMEONE WHO HAZ LOVEE FOR YOU SHOULD MOTIVATE YOU NOT SOMEONE WHO DOESNT….IGNORE A HATA AND EVENTUALLY THEY DIE. SO ANYWAYZ…RIRI U MAY NOT BE THE BEST SINGER OUT BUT YOUR MOST CERTAINLY………………………….NOT THE WORST.
PL WANT TO HEAR A GOOD VOICE COMBINED WITH GOOD MUSIC BECAUSE THATS WHAT MAKES A GOOD SONG,..IF YOU WANT GOOD WORD GO READ A GOOD BOOK.
GOOD MUSIC EQUALS…GOOD SINGIN VOICE…GREAT MUSIC…AND INSPIRATIONAL TO MOTIVATIONAL LYRICISIM..ANYBODY CAN EXPRESS GOOD WORDS…BUT MUSIC HAS TO HAVE MORE THAN JUST WORDS…BECAUSE THEN BASICALLY ITS JUST A POEM BEING SPOKE OVER SOUND AND ALMOST ANYONE CAN DO THAT BUT EVERYBODY CANNOT BE A GOOD SINGER OVER MUSIC AND COMBINE IT AS IF THEIR VOICE IS AN ORIGINAL INSTRUMENT. EVERYBODY DOESNT HAVE THE GIFT TO SING. BEUATIFUL ONES LIKE SARAH VAUGHN, BILLY HOLIDAY AND THE CLASSIC WHITNEY HOUSTON TO OTIS REDDING SAM COOKE AND AL GREEN…TO BEYONCE…TEEDRA MOSES ERIC ROBERSON AND OTHER BEAUTFUL ARTIST THAT HAVE THE GIFT TO SING. OTHERS JUST TRY AND SOME TO HARD.
THE GAME AINT BEEN ABOUT SINGIN TALENT FOR A WHILE NOW!!!!! CAN WE SAY ALICIA KEYS? SHES BEAUTIFUL AND A TALENTED SONGWRITER AND CLASSICALLY TRAINED PIANIST BUT HOMEGIRL CANT SING WORTH A DAYUM! RIHANNA songs are catchy stop hatin.
didn’t madonna do take a bow first? Yeah by Babyface.
Rihanna really messed the song up. She does not need to sing slow songs. She is too whiney!!!
i want to toss her salad.
