Cornel West Speaks At Vigil For Unionizing UM Food Workers
It appears that someone has beaten Donald Trump to the punch of leaving a job before hearing his trademark phrase, "You're fired!"
Over the weekend the billionaire business mogul was shunned by pop star Rihanna, who was scheduled to perform on Saturday night for a charity event at Trump's luxe Palm Beach country club, Mar-a-Lago. To Trump's dismay, the Grammy Award winner canceled on Saturday morning, claiming to have bronchitis.
Unfortunately the last minute cancellation was hard to digest for the real estate titan.
According to The Palm Beach Post, Trump allegedly called the 'What's My Name' songstress immediately following the news saying; "That bronchitis you don't really have better get cured, and it better get cured fast."
Apparently Trump was fully aware of Rihanna's scheduled halftime performance at Sunday's NBA All-Star game in Los Angeles, in which she performed alongside Drake and Kanye West. He went on to display his feelings on the 23-year-old singer's actions to the Southern Florida newspaper.
"For Rihanna to go to the All-Star Game and perform after she told us she was sick, that is just a lack of respect," he said.
Luckily Donald Trump found a quick replacement in Jennifer Hudson who took on Rihanna's scheduled slot. "Nothing was missed. Jennifer's a beautiful girl. She came on her day off even though she performs almost every night," he said. "She is an unbelievable talent, and her voice is better."

WHO THE HELL DOES SHE THINK SHE IS? HOW DISRESPECTFUL! This proves that she is disrespectful, immature, & not honest! How dare she at the last minute do that Mr. Trump like she is some damn "Princess"? Stank Ri had a commitment that was for a worthy cause turned it down for her to shake her simple azz on stage, perform, & sing a "HOT AZZ MESS"! Nobody is going to want to be around Ri! I hope people wake up and see who she really is and stop makin her to be this BIG SUPER TALENTED SINGER/SUPERSTAR!

Her actually showing up to perform for a charity/fundraiser would have really been a surprise. Her choosing to blow it off is no surprise. She showed her true colors and displayed how little class she has. Honestly every time I hear her song comes on I turn the station. Every time!!!! She really is not pretty and her songs suck!!!!!

I'm glad she dissed his mop head. He is exploiting black women on his upcoming Apprentis, so good for his a*s. I'm not saying the women had to act a dang fool, but Trump knew what he was doing when he choose Nene and Star as contestant during the same season. So Donald, kiss Rihanna lil stink aSS.

What's the big deal? If someone says to you that they are sick, they just stopped their part in the show and that is all. Everyone is entitled to be sick and not feeling well. All peoplesend regrets when they change their mind about attending events for whatever their reason. Donald is no one but a mere man who wants to be king of everyone's life. Sure, he is blessed with lots of money, but still is just a mere mortal human being or a mere man as anyone on this earth is. He can be disappointed as anyone but he can only dictate his life and no one's else. You people are sick when you try to rule other's lives. That is why people are rising up in other countries now against their government. People always think they are above and can direct others and when they cannot direct themselves. donald can only flount his greed in front of others. No matter if I like her singing or not, she has the right as anyone else to cancel her part in any show. Get over it Donald. Your health can be taken away from you in a second and then who will your riches belong to. What is wrong with you people worshipping other people cause they got money. Money will not mean a think to you if an earthquake swallows you up. It can happen.

It is called being professional. Nobody is worshipping Donald Trump. If you are suppose to do a job then be a grown woman and do your job! And she was not even sick. I would give her credit if she really was sick but she lied to shake her butt some where else. Stop making excuses for her!
