Mourning Rihanna's Instagram!
A Requiem for Rihanna's Dead Instagram Account
Quote:
Loss is defined as the state or feeling of grief when deprived of someone or something of value. Rihanna's Instagram account was priceless.
"Badgalriri" contained multitudes. Not only did it detail the blunt-smoke clouded adventures, champagne-soaked forays, and bikini-clad antics of the peripatetic pop star, it dispensed wisdom, jokes, advice.

But on Monday, May 5, Badgalriri ceased to exist. It sputtered before dying; disappearing at around 10 am, coming back briefly at 1:15 pm. At some point before the day ended, it was gone again. Days passed, and it did not return. At first there were reports that it had been disabled.

How can you describe the magic that was Badgalriri? What are the words? Sparkling, enigmatic, coy, triumphant. Badgalriri was full of joy, pain, surprises. There was tenderness — Rihanna's young, tattooed, bejeweled hand holding an older, wrinkled hand, as the star lost her grandma Dolly to cancer.

Some celebrities are loathe to offer even a tiny glimpse of their private lives. Badgalriri was an open invitation. Come with me. See what I see. It's all so beautiful. Through Badgalriri, any teenager trapped by youth and carlessness or any dejected, cubicle-swelling slob could dream, hope, wish.
