RiRi Fires Back At The Parents Television Council
The Parents Television Council wants RiRi's video for Man Down pulled off the face of the planet, because it shows her firing a revenge bullet into the head of her rapist and they believe this teaches our children to handle shit with violence. Yes, because when I was a child and watched Madonna's video for "Burning Up," I immediately rolled around in the middle of the street like a cat in heat. Okay, that is a terrible example since I actually did that. Moving on...
The PTC says that as a victim of assault RiRi skipped the opportunity to tell rape victims to seek help from the police instead of taking matters into their own hands. The founder of an anti-violence organization called "Enough is Enough" (which sort of sounds like the name of a Donna Summer fan club) is backing up the PTC and issued this statement of words to CNN about the video:
"I join with the Parents Television Council and Industry Ears in calling on Viacom executives to immediately pull the video from programs that are targeted to youth and teenagers."
RiRi defended herself on Twitter, and while I am on her side, bitch should've brought it down a few and left out a dozen characters or 200. I've bolded the words that should've probably ended up on the cutting room Twitter floor.
I'm a 23 year old rockstar with NO KIDS! What's up with everybody wantin me to be
