Rihanna Vents Over Racial Encounter in Europe
December 19, 2011
Rihanna has revealed she was the victim of racist abuse in a hotel in Portugal.
The 23-year-old singer was checking out of the hotel after performing a concert in the country, when she claims she was subjected to the "most racist" comments about black women she had ever heard.
Rihanna took to Twitter to vent her rage, and revealed she had given the man a piece of her mind.
She wrote:
The Barbadian singer arrives in London on Tuesday to perform three gigs at London's O2 Arena tomorrow - the final dates of her Loud tour, before she takes some time off for Christmas.
Rihanna didn't let the abuse get her down though and described her gig in Portugal as "legendary".

SMH. That man sounds like he belongs in the Middle Ages to be honest.
Rihanna is beautiful and gorgeous and is worth more than he can ever make in his lifetime. ~Time Spent Learning is a Time Never Wasted~

It's like "fuck you bitch, carry my bags". I wouldn't say "fuck you" and "bitch" to his face though. I'm a gentleman. | |

I vividly remember mine: a former girlfriend (who was White) called up her dad in Boston to talk about our growing relationship. She prefaced the conversation with: "Dad, he's nice and he's Black." The phone went dead. | |

So she's finally brushed up on her use of the word cunt.
Well, that's something. | |

I was in lisbon portugal in the late 90s. 5 star hotel and I literally couldnt catch a cab out one night. Door man had to run 2 city blocks to find one. Drunk dude tried to fight me outside a club near the docks. People looked at my group as if we had shit on our face.....but the ladies were built like brick houses! I guess they still see us as cargo. 1 over Jordan...the greatest since | |

Well if I say OVER THERE.... 9 times out of 10 that means I dont | |

Which means that you have no right to come out with some ill-informed and ignorant statements. Stick to talking about what you know. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Your statement is even more ignorant.
I hope you are not implying since I dont live over there that it justifies that fact. Almost every week a racist report is reported over there , what point are you trying to make? They will call you the N word in your face over there and nothing will be said. Not saying that doesnt happen in America because it does but its more crazy over there. So since I dont live there I cant voice what is being reported????
LOL
okay... [Edited 12/19/11 20:04pm] | |

I live in London. You acquire your knowledge from videos on YouTube. Pathetic.
Having lived in various parts of the States, London is much more cosmopolitan than any other part of the world that I've been to. And races actually mix, instead of having their little "quarters" which they keep to. There is far more racial integration in London than anywhere else I've been to in the world.
How dare you call me ignorant. You do not live in England and have no experience of what goes on over here. Some idiot being racist on a train or bus is not a daily or even an annual occurence that I have witnessed - and I live in an area that is predominantly black, although I am white. It obviously goes on, but these are isolated incidents. I saw worse and on a far more regular basis in my years in the US.
How can you regard yourself as superior when you can only base your "knowledge" on what you see reported on the internet as opposed to real life experience is beyond me. Shame on you. | |

OOHH MY GODD.
In an article published in the latest issue of Dutch fashion magazine Jackie, the magazine offers a little advice on how to dress like Rihanna without looking like the “ultimate n*ggerbitch.” That’s right. No typo there. Check out the full English translation below: | |

First off where did you get youtube vides from? LOL these comments are based on what a singer directly experienced (racism) for herself OVER THERE said.
Having a variety of mixed races doesnt justify that alot of racist incidents occurs over there, in fact it makes it more prevalent the fact that it is mixed. I never said that London is the only location that racism occurs because ANY location of the world racism will exist. However, it seems the downright blunt existence of it tends to be more prevalent in London and it seems no foul is called on it when it occurs. This is not the FIRST time this has happened OR the first time NO ONE has done anything about it.
I never said I was "superior" to anyone... you said that. And your right I shouldnt base my opinion on just what is being reported but I know of others who do live there that have said the same thing. So not everybody that lives in London/UK feels the same way as you about racism. Its always a different ball game when your the one that exactly experiences it. | |

but the show was in Portugal.... "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." | |

I don't think facts will get in the way of MJsCarousal having an ill-informed rant.

My mistake but I was just speaking in terms of that location in general regardless of the location of the article. | |
