In RiRi’s new video for Man Down, she acts out exactly what the song is about…killing a man. The Parents Television Council is all up in arms over it, calling it a showcase of “cold, calculated execution of murder.” Oh boy…what’s the big deal?! People die in movies everyday, b!! Read on for details and take the poll to let us know if you think it was a little much!!
The council is outraged that Rihanna would suggest that gunning down a rapist in a crowded train station is a proper form of justice.
The council says, “If Chris Brown shot a woman in his new video and BET premiered it, the world would stop. Rihanna should not get a pass …”
The council is all the more outraged that Rihanna tweeted her fans that the video contained, “a very strong underlying message 4 girls like me.”
Ok, they do have a point with the Chris Brown thing. It is a double standard. But since Rihanna was allegedly the “victim” in the CB situation (we still don’t know for SURE what she did to him), it seems to make this justified. What do you guys think?? Take the poll and let us know!!
