It's the bodyguard's job to protect Rihanna. The photographer obviously wasn't following directions, so that's what happened.

good for her bodyguard! those paparazzi are cray

not excessive at all.

it was the photographers fault!

how scary! i would be freaking out if i were rihanna!

jeez, won't be messing with Rihanna

i want him to protect me! haha

bvae

maybe the bodyguards reaction was a bit drastic...he can protect rihanna without knocking a guy out cold

im not sure its excessive, i mean who knows if that guy was pestering her? im all for papparazzi photos but sometimes they really get out of line. guys like that are just waiting for an opportunity to sue

that what ever woman he became inlveovd with must love kids. AGREED. Who better to understand these dynamics than myself? Alright, we're cooking with gas, Folks!!! I emailed him an abridged autobiography and asked him to please send a picture. Andale!. I about had cardiac arrest when I received his response. It was a guy that I had worked with 10 years prior while I was working on my undergraduate degree in Social Work. He had heard about my husband and I was aware of his loss. We started a chat relationship, both of us hesitant to dive head first into anything. We logged a couple hundred hours of chat time. It was like when you first fall in love and are on the phone into the wee hours of the morning, until one or the other falls asleep. I asked him on our first date. I knew from that night I would be his wife. What I didn't know is that it would take forever and a day for him to asked me for the honor. We dated for a couple months and when we felt confident we would be together, we decided it was time for each of us to meet the others child. I can assure you this is more nerve-wracking than meeting the parents. After dating for a year and a half we decided that we should take the next steps and combine two houses into one. Our children are three weeks apart and fight like cats and dogs on some days, and are the best of friends on others. Virginia calls me mom and has for a long time. James calls Mike dad. I tear up when I think of these two kids that lost their parents so long ago. They have a second chance with a mom and dad, and Mike and I have a second chance at love. OKAY-Let me get to what you have all been waiting for-This past December Mike asked if I would like to go out for a date night as we often do. I accepted. I assumed (you know what they say about people that assume) it was a special dinner due to the approach of the best holiday ever- Christmas. We had reservations for Carlos and Johnny's. Can you say YUM? As I was upstairs getting ready Mike arrived home from work. I heard the commotion downstairs with the children but continued to apply my make-up and straighten my hair. The kids yelled, Mommy, Mommy, Come look at the new ornament daddy bought . I told them I would be right down. When I went down stairs I looked at the ornament at which the children were pointing. It was four silver bells. I looked a little closer to see what was engraved on the bells. Each bell had a word on it. WILL YOU MARRY ME? I had to read it twice. I turned around. Mike was holding a box with the most beautiful ring I had ever seen. I started to cry, and hugged him. He was shaking. He asked me, Is that a Yes ????? Of course it was a yes!!! I was touched that he included our son and daughter. We are not just marrying each other. we are marrying our families. On my wedding day my daughter will be my maid of honor, and our son will be the best man. I wouldn't have it any other way. P.S- They will not be attending the honeymoon. We have to have some alone time. How else will they get a new brother or sister?
