Hold That Thought Before You Blog: Tila Tequila v. Rihanna

I don't even know why I am talking about this but whatever I'm jus going to shed a little bit of light on the situation. So I have twitter and seriously the nonsense that goes on, on that site is ridiculous but the majority of the time entertaining. But one day in particular I was a bit disturbed by a particular "beef" that was going on between Tila and RiRi on some real shit you can't consider that real beef, it's just someone offering their opinion of who they don't like. Apparently Rihanna had went on Big Boy's Neighbourhood radio show and said if there was one person she could mute she would mute Tequila and before even saying that she said she doesn't like people talking about her that don't know her. Rihanna said she doesn't know her like that she said she saw her at the AMAs one year or some award show and she had a drink in her hand. Tila saw this obviously got irrate and decided to write (I think) was a very demeaning blog about Rihanna, I am a Rihanna fan so for me there is some bias, but I have a few things to point out:
   --sometimes people need to learn how to listen not hear, Rihanna didn't imply that Tila drinks alcohol she simply said that she saw her with a drink in her hand.
   --second, I think we are all entitled to our own opinion, so can someone please explain to me when it became ok to attack someone that might not like you, because face it there are people in the world that you are not going to like
But the biggest part that had me completely irate about the whole thing was: HOW DARE YOU PUT SOMEONE'S SEXUAL TRANSMITTED DISEASE OUT THERE? Whether or not it is true it's not that point at theend of the day we are all human and because of someone having an opinion of whether or not they like you, you will take something like this and turn it into a public sphere. The reason why this had me up at arms was because of the fact that I am currently working as a PR assistant with Cure Canada and they deal with AIDS/HIV and STDs/STIs, homelessness, refugees, etc and for Tila to do something like that is so inhumane its quite ridiculous. To shed some light and put this whole thing in perspective think about it this way, in African village if a woman is raped or has HIV/AIDS and the village finds out she is ridiculed, unfit to be married, and in some cases murdered. Yes a bit extreme, but think about it, Tila is trying to make what she said about Rihanna having HERPES on such a public scale excusable when in reality it's not. Whether or not it's true is not the point, but it shows one's character! If I can't say I don't like someone for some type of reason out of fear that they will tell someone else something about me that I don't want to tell anybody about me, then something is wrong with the world.
But if I have to make Tila and her army understand let's bring about another example on your blog you talked about being able to come out and say that you are lesbian, let's say if you were struggling with your sexuality and were confused and someone caught wind of it and because you said something about them they decided to out you and believe me honey if you were in certain places in Africa homosexuality can get you killed. Well I don't know what to say because it's things like this that make me say females in general have lost their ever loving mind and doing things like this won't ever have us come out on top.
Don't take this blog entry as me trying to defend Rihanna because it is not about her it's about thinking before you blog something because for all Tila might know she might have lost a fan because of that tirade she had. Not to say that Ri Ri should have known better there is something called decorum. Another true example of when keeping it real goes wrong.
P.S.: Tila my father has cold sores that show up on his lip and so does my little brother, but everybody else in my family doesn't have it. So thanks for acting like any type of Herpes is a shameful thing to have without shedding the proper knowledge of what it is.

Speak Your Mind, But Hold That Thought!
