Rihanna Threatened By Jeweler
YOU JACKED OUR PATRIOTIC PIC!
Rihanna's patriotic gesture to U.S. troops has backfired over the picture she used to make her point ... and now the company that owns the pic has a novel way she can make good.
Coronet Diamonds created the image and posted it on its website November 11 -- Veteran's Day. Apparently the famous Barbadian liked it so much ... she posted it on her Instagram, and Twitter, but she kind of deceived her followers by Photoshopping herself into the image and then removing the jewelry company's hashtag.
So we found out Coronet has sent Rihanna a cease and desist letter. They'll settle for an apology on Rihanna's social media platforms ... an apology that makes it clear Coronet created the image.
Obviously she didn't mean anything malicious by it, but artists have every right to demand credit for what they create. You've gotta be careful when you use images you find online unless you know who created them.

This doesn't matter. This would be like someone receiving stolen property and reselling it. It's still not right.

...it does matter. The article is implying Rihanna went out of her way to create the image and deceive people, she didn't.
- & no where did I say it was right but mmk

Girl bye. It's an online picture. It has difference rights than actual property.
They won't get anything out of this, unless Rih feels like being nice. It wasn't an official marketed pic it was a repost. Which millions of other instagram users do on a daily.

I guess she is over now.
