Oh RiRi you need to swing low girl, after what just happened with you and Chris, plus all else, look what you have done. Now the cops are looking for you.

I’m not shocked, but what is this girl thinking?

The cops say:
We’re told RiRi tattooed three of East Side Ink’s artists with umbrellas and the letter R. None of her pet projects cared that she didn’t have a license — but the NYC Law Department does.

They say Rihanna could be slapped with three misdemeanors for the offense, each with its own hefty penalty — as much as $300 for the first offense, $500 for the second and $1,000 for the third.

Sources say the tattoo shop could also face considerable fines of its own if the NYC Law Dept. decides to open an investigation.

Some persons may be perturbed with Quincy Jones’ recent interview on men.style.com about his fondest and weirdest recollection of Michael Jackson. Should the man who helped to launch Michael Jackson’s career have lied to save face in the public’s eyes or speak what he knows as the truth?

We could make a long list of those items that are necessary, including food, but after working all day, month or year there must be time for recreation and or vacation. Entertainment is a must in one’s life. All work and no play make’s Jack a dull boy.

Celebrating and having fun doesn’t have to be expensive. Think about ways you and your friends, or family can enjoy the day without getting a headache.
