The Vaccines "I listen to Rihanna on a daily basis"
The Vaccines take back previous comments on Rihanna
Quote:
The Vaccines' singer Justin Young says he listens to Rihanna every day and that he feels "terrible" about the band's previous comments that the singer "isn't an artist".
Last month, guitarist Freddie Cowan said that he thought Rihanna lacked credibility because she brings other people in to do all her work. "Rihanna isn't an artist – she has 15 writers, 15 songwriters and 15 producers all fighting for space on her albums and she's the face of it," he said.
"I feel terrible about that whole thing," Young says. "I listen to Rihanna on a daily ****ing basis, really! Just because she's got songwriters, doesn’t mean she’s not artistic. I definitely think she is a real artist and she’s very creative, just in another way. And for the people who write Rihanna’s songs: they're ****ing genius. That just got picked up all wrong, I love her!"

Wait. It wasn't even the frontman who smack talked Rihanna? It was the guitarist? And ATRL clung onto his words like it was the gospel? Jesus. Haters really are just haters.
It sounds so pitiful but I was avoiding the urge to listen to it after I read what they said about her. 
Haters really are just haters.
