Trump Criticizes Rihanna Ahead Of The Super Bowl, Says She Has ‘No Talent’

Rihanna has been a vocal critic of former President Donald Trump for quite some time. In 2018, she took a strong stance against the use of her music at one of his campaign rallies and even sent a cease-and-desist letter to prevent future exploitation. The singer has also spoken out against Trump’s immigration policies, even posting a powerful image on social media to bring attention to the issue. As an immigrant herself, she feels a deep connection to those affected by these policies and has used her platform to raise awareness.

Despite these efforts, not everyone is a fan of Rihanna’s political views. Recently, a conservative commentator took to social media to call for her removal from the NFL halftime show. The commentator claimed that Rihanna has a history of “bad-mouthing America” and even mentioned an incident where she allegedly spray painted a car with an expletive directed towards Donald Trump. This statement sparked a heated debate, with some supporting the idea of removing the singer from the halftime show and others defending her right to express her opinions.

Despite the controversy, it seems that Rihanna’s halftime performance will go on as planned. This is a huge opportunity for the singer, as she is also set to announce a massive comeback tour and new music. Fans have been eagerly anticipating new material from the Barbadian singer, and this performance is sure to be a highly-anticipated event.

While some may disagree with her political views, there’s no denying that Rihanna is a force to be reckoned with. She has built an empire through her music, beauty line, and fashion brand, and she continues to use her platform to advocate for important issues. Whether or not you agree with her political stance, it’s hard to argue with the impact she has had on the world.

So, while some may choose to ignore Rihanna’s halftime performance, many others will be tuning in to see the talented singer in action. Whether you’re a fan of her music or her activism, there’s no denying that Rihanna is a star who is here to stay.

Bruno Mars might be in some hot water with MGM.

The “24K Magic” singer announced a multi-year residency with MGM Resorts International in 2016, performing at the hospitality giant’s Park MGM resort in Las Vegas.

However, the relationship between the 38-year-old and the hospitality giant may have gone sour as the singer’s gambling has allegedly racked up large debts at the poker tables in Las Vegas, according to NewsNation.

“He owed millions to the MGM,” a Vegas insider told the outlet.

Another source added that the debt is as high as $50 million.

“[MGM] basically own him. He makes $90 million a year off of the deal he did with the casino, but then he has to pay back his debt,” added the insider, claiming that the singer only makes $1.5 million per night after taxes.

Part of Mars’ MGM contract reportedly included the creation of The Pinky Ring, a cocktail lounge inside the Bellagio Resort. NewsNation reports that another project is in the works as well.

Method Man is one of Wu-Tang Clan‘s most recognizable MCs, yet he’s revealed he’s not watched a single episode of Hulu’s Wu-Tang: An American Saga series.

The New York rapper joined Kevin Hart for a recent episode of his Golden Minds Podcast where Meth explained he’s never watched an episode because he wanted to allow the show to take creative liberties with its story and not feel a way about it.

“So to see this come to fruition on screen, it was a no-brainer for me knowing how RZA works,” he said. “In the beginning, it was like, ‘Wow, they’re taking a lot of liberties here with the story.’ In hindsight, knowing how some of these things work, and embellishments and sometimes dudes still be having open cases and shit so I could understand.

“I haven’t watched an episode, personally, but I get the scripts ahead of time. Everything ain’t for everybody, that’s all I could say.”
