Chris Brown and Rhianna are Reconnected


















Image Source: Flikr.com


Rhianna made a decision yesterday to connect with her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown on Twitter. She apparently added him to her select group of 400 people that she personally stays in touch with. Within hours, Chris joined her twitter account as a follower. You can bet on a media frenzy; speculating, about a reunion between the two former love birds.

Rhianna went on the defense when one her devoted followers, questioned her judgment to seemingly get involved with a man convicted of brutally abusing her. Rhianna went on the defense. She is quoted saying, "It's fu**in twitter - not the altar!" However, later apologized to the ticked off fan saying, "Babygirl I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt or offend u! Just needed to make it clear to the Navy! I still stand for u xoxo."

Last month, Rhianna agreed to relax the restraining order against Chris Brown. Her humanitarian efforts were allegedly done to help her ex better proceed with his career. The rumor mil will still swirl because we will never know what happens behind a person's closed door. Domestic Violence is no joke and any attention to remind people of its deadly plague is important.

Serena Williams Backhanded After Sexy Picture


Championship Tennis star, Serena Williams posted a racy avatar picture to her Twitter account Thursday afternoon. In the avatar, Williams is wearing only undergarments and high-heeled shoes behind a sheer curtain. News of the sexy picture quickly spread around the web, and Williams removed the picture about four hours after uploading it to her account.

Internet criticism followed at a rapid pace, and it's suggested that someone close to her advised that she change the avatar.

The question being asked around the Internet is, "Was the picture too sexy?" Also, references were made to the stalker who was arrested on the grounds of Williams' Palm Beach, Florida estate last week. Court records state the 40-year-old man used Twitter updates to ascertain Williams' whereabouts in order to stalk her.
