It seems that we missed out on some RiRi last week. The R&B songstress performed the Jay Z
and Kanye West collaboration “Run This Town” for CBS’s Thursday Night Football,
but viewers at home didn’t get to see it.
We didn’t see the performance along with the complementing comedy skit
because it was removed by CBS.
With CBS covering the Ray Rice domestic abuse issue during
their pregame show, the network allegedly decided to pull Rihanna’s
segment. Rihanna’s checkered past
history of domestic violence with singer Chris Brown is more than likely what
led CBS to dropping her from the broadcast.
Wow, that’s crazy. Isn’t it?
Honestly, who would think that hard to see that connection?
To make matters worse, now
the network is planning to show the segment this week. Now that’s a real slap in the face. Rihanna spoke her mind today though, giving
the major network her two cents via Twitter.

CBS certainly pulled some janky stuff last week. I see no difference in playing the segment
this week versus the last, but now that Adrian Peterson is the NFL’s latest
target Rihanna’s performance should be a go for Thursday.
The multi-billion dollar National Football League has turned
into a soap opera lately
I understand that sometimes you have to tread lightly, but
the NFL better not ever…ever, ever, ever take Rihanna away from us again.
