Rihanna’s Dad Sounds Like A Total Dick

This is sad: Rihanna’s father, who she became estranged from for over two years of her life, just gave an interview to Heat Magazine in which he refers to his daughter as “fat” and excuses Chris Brown’s behavior toward her.

On Chris Brown:

“Chris is a nice guy and everybody’s entitled to make mistakes in their life. God knows how many I’ve made.”

On how Rihanna looked when he saw her last August:

“I actually thought she was a little fat the last time I saw her. When I saw her at this year’s Grammys, I thought she was back to her normal size. I used to joke with her, ‘Robyn,you’re getting too fat.’ But I think she’s fine. I think she looked excellent, as everyone saw, at the Grammys. She’s dieting, she’s working out.”
