Yet Another Reason We Love Her
Filed under: Rihanna
RiRi loves art AND fat boys!
Rihanna bought $35,000 worth of art from Todd Goldman as a birthday present to herself.
The Umbrella diva is sending half to her New York apartment and keeping the other half in her Los Angeles home.
She bought several paintings. They are:
"Fat kids are harder to kidnap"
"Goodbye kitty in a microwave"
"Gold digger like a hooker just smarter"
"My mom says not to run scissors"
"Barbie is a slut"
"A salt with a deadly weapon"
"Smurf blue balls"
Smurf blue balls!!!!

Todd Goldman blatantly copies other artists. He even uses friggin CLIPART.
He is NOT an artist.
I got that shirt that says "Golddigger, like a hooker only smarter…" lol so RiRi has the same sense of humor as I do. No, I'm not really a golddigger, I'm not pretty enough. That should be another shirt. LMFAO.
Re: Rihanna – Hm, come to think of it… the shirt I have isn't by Todd Goldman. So yeah, he does steal. He'll probably get sued soon.
Re: Rihanna – I WAS ABOUT TO POST THAT WEBPAGE!! Wow, I can't believe he plagiarizes art from others!! Be original!!
You're right I think. That shirt I have isn't by Todd Goldman, but says "Golddigger…" He does steal. I wonder will he get sued bigtime.
Love Todd. I have the ONE NIGHT STAND piece… it is a pic of a night stand lol
He has a great gallery at the Grove Mall in LA across from the Farmers Market Fairfax/3rd
She should pay ME that money…I'll give her some REAL art…not this RETARDED T-SHIRT BULLSHIT!
What the hell is wrong with RiRi? Is she just fucking retarded?
natalie dee rip off.
>:[
Why should we love a celebrity with no taste who wastes so much money on junk when the money could have been spent on something constructive! My opinion of her just fell ten stories!
lol, she has a great sense of humor and big hart on people.com there's an article that states she's helping a mother of two look for a bone marrow donor i love this girl
Wow. What the fuck. You get behind this, Perez? You love scandal, don't you think you oughta run a segment about the shit Todd Goldman got into for blatant and repeated plagiarizing?
Todd Goldman is a piece of shit who steals from legitimate, struggling artists, especially those who have online galleries, and makes a fuckton of money off his ripoffs. I've lost a great deal of respect for Rihanna as an artist for spending so much money on such a load of shit without doing an ounce of research. She's going to donate thousands to that shitbag? With all the charities in the world that could do so much good with that money? What a thoughtless, thoughtless fucking thing to do. I'm in awe of this vast display of stupidity and waste. Absolutely in awe.
Hope that bitch supports Limewire. I encourage everyone to go illegally download all her albums. She doesn't seem to care about artists getting legitimately paid for their work, so let her soak in it.
All I can do is laugh at this $35,000 in art from an artist that doesn't matter? Her ass doesn't know shit about shit, and it won't even appreciate with time.
Vote RON PAUL!!!
Todd Goldman isn't an artist. He' s a goddamn dirty thief.
hot!!! WHO CARES IF SHE SPENT $35K. It's HER money, if I had that kind of money I wouldn't give a shit what people thought of my impulse purchases. i love when people get mad at others for having money, it's hillarious…
todd is a talentless hack who steals work off other people.

Ugh, Todd Goldman is a shitty art thief and "Umbrella" makes my ears bleed.
fuck Todd Goldman, Perez!
He's a well noted art thief who deserves no goddamn recognition for being an unoriginal shit.
TODD IS COMPLETE SHITE, AND YOU KNOW IT, PEREZ.
FOR ONCE, MAYBE YOU SHOULD SLAG OFF THOSE WHO FUCKING DESERVE IT RATHER THAN PRAISING HIM FOR BLATANTLY PLAGERISING THE WORKS OF ARTISTS AROUND THE WORLD.
YOU'RE SO KEEN TO POINT FINGERS AT BARAK OBAMA FOR PLAGERISING HIS SPEECHES, AND YET YOU'RE ALL ABOUT THIS SODDING LOSER?

GREAT….too bad Todd Goldman plagerizes (STEALS) 1/2 his stuff from smarter more creative freaks!
Goodbye kitty in a microwave - now, that is in bad taste. Has happened - to not only cats,but rabbits, small dogs, hamsters etc. To promote that in art is disturbing - even in jest!
yay! todd & riri rock!! u guys r just bunch of broke-ass hating bitches!!!
Re: merp. – I thought the exact same thing.. Natalie Dee should be more than pissed off.
Re: Stupidest Things – You're right, they spent money in the stupidest thing!
Classy taste in art. P.S Perez, since it now seems that "RIRI" likes fat boys you might be in with a chance
How can a girl resist such "masterpieces"?
That's some mighty sad looking ART!
Lame and quite unoriginal.
Dude is rocking a my space haircut as well…..
Re: Michelle Nelson –
Well said!
That shit is tasteless. What an idiot.
You call that art?????
i don't think his artwork looks anything like natilie dee's. same style does not mean "stolen". cubism, for instance. you think of picasso. he wasn't the ONLY cubist. sure cubist paintings can appear to be very similar. that doesn't mean they STOLE something.
and as far as whether or not it's "art", art does not mean a realistic perfect to a t render. jackson pollock anyone? if you look back in the history of art or even knew anything about art, you wouldn't say such a thing. check out threadless.com. thats tshirt designs. it can't be art?
you people are so dumb.
DAMN GIRL! YOU CELEBS JUST THINK THE MONEY'S GONNA LAST FOREVER DON'T YOU? ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY? THIRTY FIVE G'S FOR CARTOONS? I COULDA CAME OVER AND PAINTED THAT FOR YOU FOR FREE!
i agree with #4.. and how is "goodbye kitty" in a microwave funny? actual animal abusers do that and that isn't funny but ok.
she shouldn't be blowing her money like that. thats the reason a lot of celebrities go bankrupt because they act as if their income is permanent. you won't be a celebrity forever so spend your money wisely
PEREZ……you should by the POTATO one for RUMER WILLIS
I don't blame Ri Ri, if I had money I would buy art because it always appreciates and if Goldman dies young his paintings will be worth millions.
"Barbie is a slut" & "Goodbye kitty in a microwave "Well FUCK her then !
She blew $35,000 when she could have had some lovely art that does something for ones soul.
A pure waste :O(
WHO GIVES A FUCKIN DAMN IF THE SHIT IS A RIP OFF…..WHO CARES….I'D BUY IT
"Fat kids are harder to kidnap"
hmmmm… that's from a TWIZTID song.
god i wanna be friends with her so bad

she's fucking STUPID. i hate her
TODD GOLDMAN IS A FUCKING CUNT. HE CAN'T EVEN COME UP WITH HIS OWN IDEAS.
I feel bad for Rihanna for getting ripped off and buying his shit.
Actually I don't feel bad for Rihanna. It's her fault for wasting a shitload of money on that. His stolen artwork isn't even that funny or original to begin with.
exactly what i was thinking #4.
i would definitely buy it if it was on a t-shirt.
but for 5k a piece. stupid stupid stupid move.
Thats not art, thats crap. What a joke.
35K? Aren't there any artists in Barbados who could have benefitted from her whims? Why spend so much on this freaking guy–just ’cause he has buzz? Bad move, Rihanna. Remember your roots and support your own community.

cool, you can make that " art " in basic paint. so ARTZEEE
sike.
"Kitty in a microwave." Not funny at all. I didn't know that Todd Oldham was such a fuckin' souless creep! I've lost all respect for him.
Oops, spelling error. I meant Goldman. Sorry
how could u promote todd goldman! he's a piece of shit. he steals art and passes it off as his own. not cool.
Tacky. Just like her.
Rihanna is annoying.. she just got big and she already thinks shes the best thing out there.. she thinks shes better than Beyonce when B has been in this industry for decades. UM she can't sing and that bitch is already cocky.. like bitch werent you just broke 2 years ago.. have some humble pie. How is Beyonce waaay more famous than you yet more humble than you? Did you already forget about the projects you were in back in the carribeans like 2 years ago. YOU will NEVER be as famous as Beyonce.. let alone Britney. The whole world saw you laughing at Brit at the MTV opening show. Bitch Britney will be back and shit in your face… even after all the shit she is going through she is still topping charts more than you, faster than you and better than you. YOU will NEVER reach Britney or Beyonce for that fact.. these women are legends show some respect bitch. Your a one year wonder, good think you already monolpolized on your fame cuz last year way your year but this year youll fade faster than a water mark on plastic. Say bye bye bitch you look like and ape anyways.. Jay Z is gonna drop you faster than your fame lasted. But thankgod for you new line of "Umbrellas" puhh-lease. Ps. you better get a nose job while you still got money!
campbell soup can, soooo original……..only in us are elementary doodles "fine art"
RIRI DONE HAD JAYS DICK ON HER FACE FOR TOO LONG. SHE HAS COMPLETELY LOST HER SENSE OF REALITY. GOING OUT BUYING FUCKIN BULLSHIT FOR 35K. JAY HAS HAD HIS COCK ON HER FACE FOR TOO LONG. BEYONCE WAS TOO OLD FOR JAY. I CAN JUST SAY THAT RIRI IS A COMPLETELY TALENTLESS FUCKIN HASBEEN. "UMBRELLA" WAS A LONG-ASS TIME AGO. YOUR CAREER = OVER. JAYS DICK = ON YA FACE.
Love her, Perez!
-
No, she isn't the greatest of singers but is more of an entertainer but I still love Rihanna!
Go walk the streets of LA some night, see the homeless, maybe feel for them.
$3500 would feed, cloth and home a lot of people.
.
If this is the art on your walls, I can only imagine what your home looks like.
(I hope an adult is watching your money)
When you come from nothing, this is what you get.
.
Money talks, wealth whispers.
this todd goldman guy is a jerk and a fake! he steals his ideas from others! i live in clearwater too and i can tell you he is an asshole don't buy this crap!
That's NOT art…. I bet you get better stuff at every Art College…. and you don't need to spend 35.000! But then again, art is about taste and maybe It's just me who thinks this is rubbish and not funny whatsoever….
You know, Todd Goldman steals a large majority of his material.

Todd is an art thief, how could she waste money like that?? my respect for this girl has just gone down, fast.
These can also be bought on David & Goliath's website (but for t-shirts)
I love the art of Todd Goldman (and what they sell at David & Goliath).
Always when I go to London I go to the shop and buy something.
I have a shirt which says: I understand I just don't care - and it describes me well.
The stickers Boys are stupid - throw rocks on them and I am so happy I could die are on my fridge
Todd Goldman is a fucking thief.
This is what happens when children get money.
I'd wipe my ass on a Todd Goldman painting. Todd Goldman's a douchebag, that steals from real artists!
Todd Goldman is a plaigarist.
Re: Obama Gay, Wife is FagHag –
OBAMA HATES YOU AND HE'S GOING TO WIN ! STOP HATIN ON A EDUCATED MAN THAT HAS MORE DICK THAN YOUR RACIST ASS ! YEAH
Rihanna has just bought poser art. Todd GOldman stole some of his bestknown 't-shirt designs' from another artist. He's a big fat douche and should acknowledge he has no talent.
Rihanna just blew 35k on shlock that won't be worth wiping your ass with.
Re: x –
I agree. It's like fashion.One day you're in and the next, you're out.
The unfortunate thing is that Todd Goldman is simply a plagiarist and dearest RiRi spent her hard earned money on CRAP instead of REAL ART.
STAY AWAY FROM THOSE ART GALLERIES
ART GIVES YOU GAY
"Goodbye kitty in a microwave"
Not cool. Not funny.
Anyway, I can paint like (if not better) than that and then sell my wares to clueless celebrities who are just dying to throw their money around for a little bit of 'art' cred? Here's a drawing my five year old did. Rhianna, you owe me $15,00o.
todd goldman is a douche
he steals artwork and gays it up
Re: HurfDurf – Goldman is for sure a thief, but schmorky draws furry paedophile art for fun and he should be locked up. He also wears diapers and shits them.
