Eva Hoeke, an editor of the Dutch magazine recently wrote an article about pop-star princess, Rhianna, where she called Ri-Ri- a ‘NIGGA-BITCH’ who prances on stage half naked.
Here’s what Eva Hoeke wrote:
“N—A B—H. She has street cred, she has a ghetto ass and she has a golden throat. Rihanna, the good girl gone bad, is the ultimate n—a b—h and displays that gladly, and for her that means: what’s on can come off. If that means she’ll be on stage half naked, then so be it. But Dutch winters aren’t like Jamaican ones, so pick a clothing style in which your daughter can resist minus ten. No to the big sunglasses and the pornheels, and yes to the tiger print, pink shizzle and everything that glitters. Now let’s hope she won’t beat anybody up at daycare.”
‘The good girl gone bad’ singer was not happy about the comment and she surely gave Eva a dose of her west indian mouth on twitter.
Here’s what Rhianna said:
“@evajackie I hope u can read English, because your magazine is a poor representation of the evolution of human rights! I find you disrespectful and rather desperate!! You ran out of legit, civilized information to print!”
“There are 1000’s of Dutch girls who would love to be recognized for their contributions to your country, you could have given them an article. Instead, u paid to print one degrading an entire race! That’s your contribution to this world! To encourage segregation, to mislead the future leaders to act in the past! You put two words together, with the intent of abasement, that made no sense … ‘N—a Bitch’?!….Well with all respect, on behalf of my race, here are my two words for you … F— YOU!!!”
Dutch magazine issued an apology via facebook to Rhianna for the
use of the racial slur, with a note from its editor-in-chief, Eva Hoeke.
“First: thanks for all your responses. We are of course very fed up over this and especially very shocked. However I’m glad that we’re engaging in a dialogue on this page — not everybody does that. Thanks for this. Other than that I can be brief about this: this should have never happened. Period,” Hoeke wrote.
The article was intended to be a joke!. Really? This was not only a bad joke but a highly offensive and inappropriate one at that.
Despite your apology, Eva Hoeke you have been inducted in the P.L.U.M’s hall of shame.
