Chris Brown and Rihanna are reportedly back together. After only 3 weeks ago we were all shocked by the abuse that took place the night before the Grammys. This past weekend they stayed at a house on Miami’s Star Island owned by P.Diddy. While Rihanna kept a low key, Chris was seen riding a jet ski and looking relaxed. The couple was seen boarding a private jet at the Miami Airport surrounded by security. Since the two are back together, it’s a good chance that Rihanna won’t press charges against him. What are your thoughts on this situation?
Pop stars Rihanna & Michael Jackson are being sued by Manu Dibango. According to the 75 year old Cameroonian singer, the hook from his 1972 track “Soul Makossa” was stolen and incorporated into their songs. Jackson has already agreed that his 1983 hit “Wanna Be Startin’ Something” used parts of the Dibango’s song. Then in 2007, Rhianna received permission from Jackson to use the same hook for her smash hit “Please Don’t Stop The Music“. On February 15th, a judge will decide if Dibango should receive compensation of $500,000 in damages.
