As long as Adam is happy, that's all his fans care about--unlike you Perez. Of course, I'm still more of a fan of Cheeks--here's hoping he wins Mr. Twitter Universe--but Drake is making Adam smile, so all is good.
I e-mailed covergirl over this. If this rumor is true, she should not be their spokesmodel. Instead of projecting the idea through advertising that you should be unique and fierce and let Covergirl make you beautiful, having Rihanna as a spokesmodel says nothing more than "Covergirl does a good job of covering up the bruises each time your man hits you."
She has lost an amazing opportunity to lead by example and be a true role model. I feel extremely sorry for her and hope that she will gather the strength to break free.
Thank you Perez for speaking out against physical abuse. I do not know why more famous people have not--at a bare minimum--said that violence by anyone is simply unacceptable. That's not taking sides--that's taking a stand.
I wish that every man and woman out there would understand that you should never accept physical abuse. The first shake, the first push, the first angry slap--that is the most that anyone--man or woman--should experience. You can rationalize things--he/she didn't mean it, it will never happen again, you can handle her/him, he/she is so much littler than you, he/she still loves you, you caused him/her to snap, etc. But you shouldn't. There are some boundaries that shouldn't be crossed and I wish everyone would have the awareness (and means) to get out of that situation permanently.
This Rihanna & Chris Brown event is an opportunity for everyone to really think about whether hitting/biting/slapping/kicking is ever justified. Self defense does not mean responding in anger and hurting someone like they are hurting you--it means minimizing the harm that someone is doing to you. Doing enough to escape.
I hope more celebs are willing to tell people that they should not accept violence, encourage it, explain it away, minimize it.
