"If You Need Another Reason Not to Watch the Grammys: How about because Chris Brown will be performing three years after he beat up Rihanna en route to the awards show."

SERIOUSLY, WORLD? Are you for reals? Sometimes you disappoint me so hard.

Note:

Rihanna also will perform at the show. She's nominated for four awards, including the top prize—album of the year—for her platinum effort Loud.

Among the phrases that make me lose my shit, "Chris Brown comeback" ranks up there very, very high. And Rihanna continues to impress and amaze me by making hot songs about rough sex and controversially rapist-murdering videos and basically telling anyone who expects her to act a certain way just because she was a victim of domestic violence to fuck right off, please.

Hey Anna, if you'd actually listen to her lyrics for a few seconds you would realize how utterly banal and unthreatening they are to mainstream America. Rihanna may make decent pop songs (debatable), but in no way is she actually subversive. Try to act like you write for The Stranger, and not you know, the Weekly or something.
