I dunno bout you guys, but am I the only one who thinks all of this Chris Brown/Rihanna ish is just marketing hype? It’s too much. The embattled lovebirds who fought it out in that Lamborghini on Grammy night are now fighting it out in the media.? She’s appeared on ABC’s 20/20 spilling the tea while he’s appeared on Larry King Live,? MTV and most recently The Wendy Williams show, where he said he felt SHE was telling too much. *sigh*
Both are under scrutiny as Chris keeps apologizing over and over and over again while Rihanna’s first ever interview since the incident has fans questioning the timing since she has an album to promote. I’m sure it’s also no coincidence that both videos are premiered on the same day. There’s a ton of symbolism in both vids and people are going to pick em apart from here to eternity. I can almost picture Rihanna & Chris cuddled up together somewhere chillin, eating Crunch & Munch and laughing at all the hype.

The official video for Latoya Luckett‘s hot song, “Regret” featuring Ludacris, has finally been released. The video follows LeToya as she ends her romance with her boyfriend played by Sean Newman and doesn’t let herself embraced with sadness following the break-up. “It’s about anybody that’s been in a relationship and moved on and the person who mistreated her and broke her heart now all of the sudden realize ‘you’re the best thing that’s ever happened’ and he wanna back.” explains Latoya.
“Regret” appears in LeToya’s studio album “Lady Love” which hit the market in August. According to AceShowbiz, there were rumors that Capitol Records had refused to run any further promotional effort for the album which peaked at No. 12 on Billboard Hot 200. This issue reportedly prevented “Regret” and its official remix, which adds new beats and lyrics, from being released. It was also rumored that this newly-debuted video was made only because fans sent an online petition to the company. No comment from LeToya and/or Capitol Records regarding the allegations.
