In solidarity with Colin Kaepernick, the QB who is the poster child for the "take a knee" movement and who continues to be unemployed by the NFL (leading many football columnists to conclude that there is collusion to keep him out of the NFL).

quote:
"I couldn’t dare do that," she explained. "For what? Who gains from that? Not my people. I just couldn’t be a sellout. I couldn’t be an enabler. There’s things within that organization that I do not agree with at all, and I was not about to go and be of service to them in any way."

ThumbsUp

Don't think turning down the Superbowl will hurt her sales at all.

Who? Seriously. I have no idea who you are talking about. I am assuming it's some pop star for which I have no desire to waste my time searching.

Yeah, a pop star. You would have to search far. She’s incredibly popular.

First time the name "Rihanna" piqued my interest was when Paris Hilton says she's thinking of picking Rihanna for VP in the tail end of her video responding to John McCain in the midst of the 2008 election:

Rihanna is the 7th best selling artist of all time. It's been about 6 months since I looked. She might be the 6th best selling artist of all time 6 months from now. I wouldn't count her out.
