Since getting that stupid-ass tattoo this past week, Rihanna has received criticism over the message that it conveys. You know, the message other than being a stupid twat. Says Digital Spy,

While many Twitter users spoke out against the body art, claiming that Rihanna was glorifying gang culture, she has since taken to the social networking site to defend her decision.

“I #LOVE my new tattoo!!! Can’t wait for yall to see it!!! I got it in ‘Tibetan’ this time!!! #approved,” she wrote.

“Chill babes #noshade. Err’body has an opinion, but yall know what yall can do with them!!! #THUGLIFE (sic)”

Rihanna later joked: “I’m thinking I shoulda got a tear drop instead!!! #THUGLIFE maybe next time. “All eyes on Rih, betta picture me rollin’ #THUGLIFE.”

I personally think a baboon making smoke signals while picking its ass would be easier to decipher than that ghettospeak. Seriously, if you’re going to make the effort to spell out err’body complete with an apostrophe, you should just go ahead and fucking spell the word you’re bastardizing. That shit is a whole different level of pretentiousness.

Keepin’ it classy with no bra and nipple barbells:

When you live in a little bubble created by the fantasy world of reality TV, you tend to lose your bearings on how things actually are. Case in point: Snooki is all confused as to why anyone wouldn’t think she’s the best thing since spaghetti and meatballs. Shocking! Says Digital Spy,

Nicole ‘Snooki’ Polizzi has confessed that she is confused by comments made by Ne-Yo regarding her recent Rolling Stone cover shoot.

Posting on his Twitter page earlier this week, the ‘Miss Independent’ singer criticised the Jersey Shore star’s appearance on the publication’s cover, writing: “Wow. Snooki is on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. Really? I quit. (Just kidding, but almost serious.)”

Snooki has since struck back at Ne-Yo, telling US Weekly: “I was just really upset. I’m a big fan of Ne-Yo. Every song was on my iPod and I deleted them yesterday just because of his comments.

“Why do you hate me? I’m the nicest person ever. I understand you are a little mad ‘cos your career is not up right now and I’m on the cover but you know what – I’m a nice person and I deserve it, so get over it.”

Ne-Yo later told E News that he believes his initial response was correct.

“I don’t know her so I can’t disrespect her, but I feel like Rolling Stone is a music magazine,” he explained.

“And for them to put her on the cover, it’s like, ‘Really?’”

The last time I saw a little piggy so enthralled with itself, it had just gotten a buttermilk bath in preparation to be taken to the county fair. I’m not sure exactly how that connects to Snooki’s comments, but it sounded good and I’m hoping in her case that it ends with a change of plans and a trip to the slaughterhouse instead of a “Best in Show” ribbon. E.B. White has nothing on my storytelling skills.

Don’t make fun of skinny girl Victoria Beckham! She might attack you with her Clavicle of Doom! Says Now Magazine:

Victoria Beckham is tired of people criticising her about her weight.

The former Spice Girl insists she’s not concerned about her small frame.

‘Of course I eat,’ she says. ‘I’ve been accused of not eating for 10 years. If I hadn’t eaten for 10 years, I’d be hungry…

‘I think there’s a big difference between someone having an eating disorder and someone who is controlled about what they eat.

‘I think I could do with putting on some weight but this is the way I am.’

Victoria admits she finds the jibes distressing.

‘I’m not anorexic or bulimic and I’m not a skeleton,’ she protests. ‘It’s so upsetting. I’m seven and a half stone. I’m very fit and healthy and I feel great.

‘I haven’t changed what I eat. I just feel my metabolism has changed as I’ve got older.’

“If I hadn’t eaten for 10 years, I’d be hungry…”? No, actually, you’d kind of be dead, Einstein. Of course you eat something. I bet she really chows down on some high-calorie watercress sandwiches, (hold the butter, cream cheese and bread). I bet she eats enough to sustain a 3 year-old Ethiopian. Nowadays, she could probably eat circles around Michael Jackson. Madam, you make me ill with your unbridled gluttony. I bid you good day!
