Rihanna Left Furious After Dutch Magazine Publishes 'De N***abitch' Article

Rihanna was left furious after a Dutch magazine called Jackie wrote an article about her – and titled it ‘N***a Bitch’.

The offensive article then proceeded to talk about the Barbados-born beauty in a derogatory and distasteful way, describing her as ‘the ultimate n***a bitch’, as Jamaican-born not Barbados, and insinuating that the singer was similar to a porn star in the way she dressed.

The magazine wrote (translated from Dutch): “She has street cred, she has a ghetto ass and she has a golden throat. Rihanna, the good girl gone bad, is the ultimate n***abitch and displays that gladly, and for her that means: what’s on can come off.

“If that means she’ll be on stage half naked, then so be it. But Dutch winters aren’t like Jamaican ones, so pick a clothing style in which your daughter can resist minus ten. No to the big sunglasses and the pornheels, and yes to the tiger print, pink shizzle and everything that glitters. Now let’s hope she won’t beat anybody up at daycare. (sic)”

Understandably, Rihanna was extremely upset at the article and took to Twitter to write to the editor Eva Hoeke – and as you can imagine, there was a big ‘fuck you’ in there.

“I hope u can read english, because your magazine is a poor representation of the evolution of human rights! I find you disrespectful and rather desperate!! You ran out of legit, civilized information to print! There are 1000's of Dutch girls who would love to be recognized for their contributions to your country, you could have given them an article. Instead, u paid to print one degrading an entire race! That's your contribution to this world!

“To encourage segregation, to mislead the future leaders to act in the past! You put two words together, with the intent of abasement, that made no sense ... 'N***a Bitch'?!....Well with all respect, on behalf of my race, here are my two words for you ... Fuck YOU!!!”

What do you think of the magazine’s actions? They have since claimed that they were attempted to use slang and that there was “no malice” behind any of their writings. Let us know what you think in the comments section below.
