freebit 6,240 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 she kidnapped his (b---hes) wife and she was asking for money but that guy was like **** her ill have multiple women now, so rihanna is like wtf and kills him (becomes "friends" with that woman) and gets her money You know, I've seen people on the internet creating this backstory, but you could just as easily say the woman ended up murdered along with her husband because the ending is pretty ambiguous IMO. Either way, that doesn't make the abuse against that character seem any less senseless. I know it's "just a video" but it just gave me such a sinking feeling while watching it, I just didn't care for any of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yanko 9,860 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 With this video Rihanna pulls off what Taylor Swift failed to do with Bad Blood: shock and awe with a display that puts herself in the position of power throughout. Swift may surrounded herself with a posse of beautiful, powerful women, and had a vast budget, but her offering was something of a damp squib.By manipulating the media’s obsession with the beautiful blonde, white, kidnapped woman, Rihanna has played them perfectly. Just look at the outrage it’s caused –people were almost comically quick to denounce it after one viewing, as vile, sick, corrupt, disgusting, misogynist, and ‘anti-feminist’.But in a time where we seem to be stamping trigger warnings on anything that moves, I’m glad that Rihanna shocked me. I haven’t been shocked by a music video in a long time; I yawned and rolled my eyes all the way through “Bad Blood”. In “BBHMM”, the viewer is forced to be the victim when they want to be Rihanna, or at least tag along as one of her sidekicks.Anyone who claims to have been thrown by this new material should have been following the singer’s career trajectory more closely. Rihanna was hardly going to confine herself to singing about Umbrella-ella-ellas for the rest of her life. “BBHMM” is fuelled by real rage. She’s directed her song about getting screwed over by a man who tried to take advantage of her, and she’s taking back control.Why do we reduce a woman’s work to whether it’s feminist or not? Rihanna certainly doesn’t care what you think, she’s counting the money she just got back, the Queen of DGAF.http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/comment/who-cares-if-rihannas-bbhmm-video-is-feminist-or-not-shes-the-one-with-the-power-10364326.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrawberryBlond 14,881 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Why do we reduce a woman’s work to whether it’s feminist or not? Rihanna certainly doesn’t care what you think, she’s counting the money she just got back, the Queen of DGAF.We do it for a very good reason - because women need better representation in the media. I've been reading a book about s-xism lately and while relating to a lot of the tweets in the book, there were also a ton of experiences that made my jaw drop and I had no idea so much of this was routine. Women who had been catcalled, groped, harrassed, assaulted and raped repeatedly, to such an extent that some of them didn't realise that it was wrong, that they can say no and they can report it. The media exacerbates this problem by making it commonplace for women to be scatily clad/naked whenever possible in advertising and entertainment and very disturbingly, having their bodies juxtaposed with violence. This is a very serious issue and it rightfully makes a lot of women, myself included, quite angry and offended, sometimes even saddened by how we are presented to males. So it concerns it even more when it's women doing this to other women. As a woman, I know exploitation and s-xism when I see it - I certainly couldn't dish it out on other women. I'd like to think that all women would want to represent her gender well and make them look strong, not weak. Rihanna seems too comfortable with the role she's playing and I don't think she sees a problem with it. She may be counting her money, but money isn't worth much when you're cold on the inside. I agree with the rest of what the reviewer says about it being genuinely shocking and a much better attempt at shock than Bad Blood, though. Like I said previously, this video has me torn in so many ways. So many good points, so many negatives. If there was no s-xualised content, I'd feel so much better about it.

Navy 495 Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 yawn.The fact that people actually care about "s-xualised content" it's 2015. Sexualised content has and always will be a huge part of pop culture, like it or not. Switch to the country genre if you're offended. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
