This morning I read an article, talking about the collaboration between Chris Brown and Rihanna on a new song. Really?
My number one question is...Why? Why would you not just leave well enough alone and move on? Are there not a million other people to make a song with? Will people listen and read out of curiosity...of course. Obviously I was one of them. But as a woman, who was publically humiliated, and badly abused, why would she put herself in a situation of that sort again. It had been rumored that they were hooking up again, and personally I think something like this definitely confirms that.
Here is the article I read. It was interesting because the author wrote about how just because someone is a celebrity, doesn't in anyway, shape, or form, mean that they are intelligent. More than likely, they are more frivolus, and carefree. They are more likely to put themselves in stupid situations because of money. The detailed police report is in the article, talking about what he did to her in the car that night (Is Rihanna's actual name Robyn btw, if so I never knew that). I don't care if she had cheated on him, or he had cheated on her, or if one wanted to break up with the other...what happened that night was utterly unacceptable. If he cared for her deeply, he had a pretty horrible way of showing it.
I also read a quote from Akiba Solomon saying "[Chris Brown and Rihanna are] making a mockery of domestic violence with the release of their musical collaborations. While they both display common traits of abuse victims and abusers, fans should ignore their moneymaking and attention-seeking antics". I could not agree more. They should not be "hollywoodifying" (for lack of a better word) this sort of behavior. It just makes it look like a slap on the wrist and living on seperate coasts for a few years makes everything A-OK.
...I actually just listened to the song (I hadn't heard it before I started writing), and was going to link it to the page but I couldn't. The irony of the lines is too much to handle. I don't know what they were thinking. Unless its the next big publicity stunt...last one being Kim K. Look where that got her???
Some may call it fickle...I just think I have a lot of different interests.

Song Queen
I have been the song queen lately. The past few days, I have been listening to all the Michael Franti and Spearhead songs (after hearing new ones at the wedding I was in this past weekend). I love the reggae/low key feel of all his music. It's feel good music, and I think everyone can appreciate it, no matter age, beliefs, taste, etc.
Here's a little taste:
Speaking of said wedding, I'll post lots of pictures after the bride and her new hubby return from their honeymoon. The wedding was one of the absolute best I have ever been too. I may be partial because she is a best friend of a long time, but it was so much fun and lasted the perfect amount of time. The wedding was so "them". A little touch of Ashley and Andy on every part of it. Overall, an amazing time with many people that I love!
A sneak peek:
Love you both to pieces Ash and Andy! Can't wait to see you when you get back from the Carribean all bronzed.
Completely off subject...
I successfully completed my first morning workout ever. 5 am came bright and early but I now understand the amazing feeling of having it done for the day. I hope I can get my booty out of bed that early more often!

I was one of Colbie's first fans
I just realized that Jason Mraz and Colbie Calliat are going to be at Merriweather in September. I can't go :-(
BUT I thought I would share one of my fave songs ever by them.
Dedicate this one to my best friend ;-) (cheesy? Yes? oh well!)
