This looks like the beginning of the end for Blackberry .

Blackberry was originally a tech market giant, hailed as the least hackable cell phone with the highest security. Used by international leaders and high-powered CEO’s it seems they may become another obsolete piece of machinery. Recently Blackberry has fallen into the big nasty pot of economic crisis. According to BBC News, they are cutting 40% (or more) of their international job force. That equals approximately 4,500 jobs that will be cut creating a loss of almost $100 million dollars.

According to BBC News;

It also anticipates a loss of as much as $995m (£621m) when it reports its second-quarter earnings next week.

Shares plummeted 20% after the announcement.

In a time when the global economy is already collapsing this looks like it might be the end of Blackberry. Time to switch over to DROID or iPhone? We think so. What are you thoughts?

Chris Brown and Rihanna split, AGAIN #Seriously #StuntQueens

cbriri

It seems music’s favorite train wreck couple has split up AGAIN.

This week Chris Brown announced on Power 106 that he and Rihanna had finished their on again off again roller coaster relationship.

 

 

 

When asked about his Barbadian rockstar girlfriend  and if they were still together, he answered

“Uh no — that’s the short answer.”

 

Brown stated Rihanna was not the problem, and he was grateful for what he did have with her. He was thankful Rihanna was kind enough to forgive and love him despite the abusive relationship that surfaced in 2009, and that she made him ‘a better man’.

Brown told Ryan Seacrest in an interview with KIIS-FM radio (earlier in the week) that he takes full responsibility for the assault in 2009, saying that he is “eternally grateful” to Rihanna for forgiving him.

“I just tried my best to be the best man I could be over the years and just show her how remorseful and sorry I was for the incident,” he explained, continuing, “and that time was probably the worst part of my life and being that she has and she’s a wonderful person I’m eternally grateful and thankful.”

Hmmmm. Sounds like a publicist talking. My thoughts? If Chris Brown had tried to be the best man possible, he wouldn’t have hit her in the first place.

So, is the split real or another PR stunt to keep us guessing. Yesterday, Rihanna seemed to be eluding that it was finished on her side too. She re-tweeted an emotional quote from @PiscesareUs that said;

Its the heart of a  that makes us soft mannered BUT is that same heart of a  that will make us get in your ass if needed

Hooray! Let us pray that our sweet little songbird ditched him for good. She needs freedom and a healthy relationship and Chris Brown is NOT it. Although Rihanna took her tweet down quickly from Twitter, it sounds like she is sick of having to be on CB’s ass (partying w ex gf’s, models, etc). Maybe she finally is seeing through his BS.

On a nicer note, Brown and Rihanna make better music when they aren’t with each other anyway. Here’s wishing they go parted ways amicably. And this time it’s permanently. Stick to your guns kids. We don’t need another Bobbi and Whitney.
