Domestic violence is cool now

February 8, 2009 Pop Singer Rihanna is brutally beat by Her boyfriend Pop Singer Chris Brown.


Summer 2010 Pop Singer Rihanna collaborates with Pop Rapper Eminem on the mega-hit "I Love the Way You Lie," as Eminem quotes, "You push, pull each other's hair, scratch, claw, bit 'em, throw 'em down pin 'em, so lost in the moments when you're in 'em," and, "If she ever tries to fucking leave again I'mma tie her to the bed and set the house on fire."

The violent, anti-social lyrics may seem troubling, but Rihanna's feature was even more troubling as She repeats, "But that's alright because I like the way it hurts."

The charming mp3 can be found in tight rotation on every radio station and here.


The song was such a hit that Pop Records Execs couldn't help but come back for a second helping of women beating Pop songs. Yesterday "Love the Way You Lie Part 2" hit took the web by storm. Be sure to get your copy here.

The sequel naturally goes further than the original, as Rihanna admits to being into S&M by saying, "So maybe I’m a masochist," which is pretty scaring considering She has literally millions of young women looking up to Her. Eminem continues the upstanding role model trend by saying, "I may have hit you three times, I’m startin’ to lose count."

As for myself, I'm starting to lose count of post-modern pop culture trends that make me sick to my stomach.
