Sooooo MsZindzi.com’ers as promised I have the FULL Rihanna interview on ABC’s 20/20 last night…

She seemed strong, and she exuded confidence throughout the entire interview w/ Diane Sawyer. I particularly liked her answers to the question, “What would you like to hear from him?”, She replied “NOTHING”….”Do you ever see yourself being with him again?” Rihanna replied, “…….I have NO DESIRE to be with him…”

Really happy I got a chance to hear her side of things, and besides she did WAAAAAAAY better than Chris ever did! Get yours Rih Rih! OH! Imma work on getting the “Russian Roulette” video up soon.

I am all for hearing different opinions and I am humble enough to respect anyone’s opinion while still standing firm with my own…And today you will to get my opinion, But I must admit I can’t help but being a tad bit bias!

Folk have been talking…Rihanna spawn of satan, Devil worshipper. She sold her soul to the Devil. She’s possessed by the devil.

Umm, really? Why? – Umm, Let me guess!

Because she dresses with an edge and sings with one too? Because her lyrics bear signs of ULTRA-control and ULTRA-fearlessness? Really? Or maybe it’s ‘cause in her recent photo shoots she’s been dressed in all black; hoodie, make-up and all? – Please!

Is this the kinda issh people cultivate when they have too much time or their hand or what?

Music, Theatrics, Fashion! ART! It’s all ART! And if some folk would take time to acknowledge that they’d know that most art if not all and whether we like it or not is SYMBOLIC!! Grow up, expand your mind and stop taking every issh you hear and see for face value!

I agree that her outer appearance has changes very much from her ‘Pon Di Replay’ days – and that’s OK! Her hair is different, her wardrobe has 360’d, make-up is a lot less subtle and that’s OK!

Yes, she dresses with an edge and sings with one too (evident in her “Wait Your Turn” and “Russian Roulette” singles) – But the girl’s been through a lot this year in case you forgot! Remember what happened back in February? I am sure I need not remind you! She’s got a lot on her mind and chest, and through her music is how she chooses to express it!

Daaang! Come off it people. Her music, and her dress is entirely her choice, and not everything we see or hear is literal!

These kinda silly talks is something I’d expect from a child! Not grown adults like ourselves! I am so shocked and disappointed in how a lot of folk are thinking right now!

It annoys me to hear people making these unintelligent accusations about people, not even just artists! Malicious rumours like this can happen to anyone, all it takes is one ignorant person.

Its either you’re a fan of Rihanna’s music or you’re not – But don’t try bring “devil” and “evil” as your excuse to HATE!
Last time I checked half the people talking don’t even know her personally (and neither do I)! As INTELLIGENT AND MATURE people outside of Rihanna’s personal life, and who are only exposed to her music and magazine & news clippings of her, we are supposed to be making SENSIBLE and educated assumptions (if any at all), not making unintelligent and ignorant chit-chat.

First Michael Jackson “Thriller” then Bone Thugs “Crossroads”, Tupac’s “Hail Mary”, DMX, Jay-Z, they even had talks running around about Lil’ Wayne! Remember the ‘Have you played the 2pac song backwards?’ rumour that was going around years ago? LOL!

Come on people, we’re smarter than that!

Music is SYMPOLIC not literal! FASHION is SYMBOLIC and not literal! THEATRICS is SYMBOLIC and not literal!
I suggest people find something else to spend their valuable time on rather than making wild accusations about talented artists!

You may not agree, and that’s OK! I’m always open for healthy discussion so please do comment.

PS: For all the Rih Rih fans, THE WAIT IS OVA!!!!!! Check out her new video WAIT YOUR TURN here. And Be sure to check look out for the Russian Roulette video and her interview on 20/20 and her performance on GMA – all going down next week on ABC! ;-)

It’s just the way
The game is played
It’s best if you just
Wait your turn!

OOOOHHHHH!!!! And my fav. ROCKSTAR returns! She’s hotttt!!! Me likey the track and the video! – It’s getting crowded, Over here, But babe, The wait is ova, Sometimes it takes, A thousand tries To win, The wait is ova!!

Be on the look out for her ‘Russian Roulette’ video premiere on the 13th of November…

NOTE: SMH @ the downright narrow minded “justice of the peace” (what a contradiction!). To deny inter-racial couples a marriage licence in this day and age??!!! He shoulda been FIRED! – I first heard about this story when CNN BREAKING NEWS tweeted it! The BBC NEWS team just sent me my daily list of headlines and there it was again, I felt most obligated to share….

*US Judge In Mixed-Race Row Quits*

A white US justice of the peace who refused to sign a marriage licence for a mixed-race couple has resigned, officials say.

Hope she has a lot more to say than Chris Brown i.e. “WOW” and “AT THE END OF THE DAY” (SMDH @ Chris)…

Rihanna would be appearing on ABC’s 20/20 w/ Diane Sawyer on November 13th. The video for her new single “Russian Roulette” will also premier in the show. In an exclusive interview, music superstar Rihanna sits down with Diane Sawyer revealing publicly for the first time what happened last February with singer and ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. The incident resulted in the couple’s seemingly fairytale relationship being shattered and Brown being sentenced to community labor, five years of probation and one year of domestic-violence counseling. During the in-depth interview, Rihanna also talks candidly about growing up in Barbados, her family life and how she has been doing over the last nine months.

As soon as the video becomes available Imma post it up for those of us who dont have Sky or Cable..you know I got yah back ppl! ;-)

Hey everybody,

I know I have been MIA for quite sometime now but trust that I have all the reason in the world. I’m just dropping by to share one of my favourite poems with all my MsZindzi.com’ers. I know you all will appreciate it and take away with you the moral of the story! Enjoy!

This is a story about four people named Everybody, Somebody, Anybody and Nobody.
There was an important job to be done and Everybody was sure that Somebody would do it.
Anybody could have done it, but Nobody did it.
Somebody got angry about that, because it was Everybody’s job.
Everybody thought Anybody could do it, but Nobody realized that .
Everybody wouldn’t do it.
It ended up that Everybody blamed Somebody when Nobody did what Anybody could have done.

Moral of the story: “If I don’t do it nobody else will!”

POTM...
