Do Better: Rihanna, A Rare Miss

I didn't think I'd ever have to call this person out for a violation; or at least not until well in the future for getting older and chunky but still trying to wear her sexy outfits or something of that nature. Unfortunately, the first Rihanna Do Better segment has arrived. She's always been someone who pushed the envelope as far as fashion and accessories. She had made it into the category with Erykah Badu where I would endorse pretty much anything she does despite how far from the norm. But this, the bowl cut, I can not give the stamp of approval too. She looks like Tugg Speedman's "Simple Jack" character from "Tropic Thunder." And Simple Jack was not just retarded, but a full retard; noone to be mimicked by any standards. So that's not a compliment. I don't even mind it being Kool Aid red, cuz she's fine and fiesty enough to work that. But the bald, taperless, homemade scissor looking bowl cut isn't quite acceptable. Despite her career declining significantly since the domestic violence incident, her fashion game has usually still been completely on point to compliment the fact that she's fine (absolutely certified banger despite the big forehead and big feet) and has swag. It's a dark day for me having to call her out. But luckily she changes up often so I have confidence that the situation will soon be rectified and back to normal which I look forward to. Rihanna, u're a unique island beauty and trend setter, u're capable of much more. Do Better. I know, I sound crazy criticizing Rihanna while I still hold her in just high regard. But whatever, as u know, I've Been Called Worse...
