rihannaThe star of The Apprentice would probably fire hip-hop sensation Rihanna if he could, and hire songbird Jennifer Hudson!

Donald Trump tells Page2Live he felt insulted when Rihanna canceled her performance hours before she was to appear at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s private club in Palm Beach. Rihanna reportedly was to be paid $500,000 to sing at a fund-raiser for the Boston-based Dana-Farber Cancer Institute but was replaced by Hudson at the last minute.

“I thought that (Rihanna bailing) was insulting to everyone,” the maybe presidential candidate said. “But for Rihanna to go to the (NBA) All-Star game and perform after she told us she was sick, that is just a lack of respect.

“But, nothing was missed. Jennifer’s a beautiful girl. She came on her day off even though she performs almost every night. She is an unbelievable talent, and her voice is better.”

Hudson, the Oscar winning actress of Dreamgirls, and Trump must have hit it off. She dined with the billionaire, and about 400 members, Sunday night at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach and even sang a set with the house band.

    It only goes to show that these entertainers think their ****is gold. News flash…its not. If anything, a lot of them are low-class pieces of garbage who are not talented but are making loads of money. Rihanna is a real sleaze-bag with nothing behind her. What she did
    was so low that words can not express what I really think of her. The problem with these people is that they think because they have a name-that means they can
    walk over others and blow off commitments. The worst thing is she went to her other one without an ounce of
    remorse. Rihanna-GROW UP.

    At least she had the manners to say something. Donald Trump is not God. Neither is Rihanna garbage. If Donald Trump knew before hand that Jennifer Hudson’s voice is better then he should have ask her before asking Rihanna to perform. Massa Day Done. Sourpuss,Can’t have your way all the time.

    What happens when a deputy reports the Sheriff office for illegal practices? They find a way to get rid of him by making an issue out of what isn’t really an issue. They even arrest him on false evidence. What happens when the deputy refuses to take a plea, takes it to court and the jury finds out the supervisors he reported lied, made up evidence and destroyed evidence that he wasn’t guilty? They say “Not Guilty” in a mere 20 minutes. Check out http://www.pbsotalk.com to what they did!
