- A journalist on Rihanna’s 777 tour press junket penned a screed to Gawker on just how awful the experience has been: no bathrooms, three hour delays, and zero interaction with RiRi.

I still sound like sh—. It’s impossible to spend time with everybody, and I’m sorry I didn’t. But this was excellent and I would definitely do it again.” [Gawker, US Weekly]
