Chris Brown & Rihanna: They’re Back, But Not Together!

That crazy little thing called love.  Chris brown and ex-girlsfriend, Rihanna, announced on the same day that they are back in the music biz!  (Wha??? Can you smell and spell ‘publicity stunt’?)

As far as Rihanna is concerned, her album cover is artistic if you like painful bondage and S&M.  She’s trying to pull a Britney and let the world know she’s a woman now and there’s not more innocent girl, but she what she’s coming accross as is now a full fledged, S&M bondage dominatrix?  Yuck!  I’ll pass.  The photos of Rihanna’s new CD cover have no class and are pretty trashy, im my humble opinion… As for most of her recent spreads (no pun intended) in magazines, Rihanna is so far out there that I don’t dare reach anymore…besides, barbwire is not user friendly.

As for the song, it’s tolerable. That’s fine, but there is so much hype around Rihanna it takes my interest away from the song.

R&B singer Chris Brown announced a month long “fan appreciation” tour on Tuesday — the same day that ex-girlfriend Rihanna released a new single seen by some as evoking their stormy relationship.

Both Rihanna’s single “Russian Roulette” and Brown’s tour announcement were firsts since their relationship came to a violent end in February.

Brown, 20, was sentenced to five years probation and community service in August for a bloody attack on Rihanna, 21, on the eve of the Grammy Awards in February. He has since publicly apologized for the assault, but has remained largely out of the media spotlight.

Brown’s record company Jive said the “Kiss Kiss” singer would play small venues in 19 U.S. cities starting in Houston, Texas on November 14. via
