 Topic: Rihanna: 1,000,000 Teyana Taylor: 0
Posted: Dec 05 2013 at 5:51am |
StyleBlazer:...a petition was made for adidas to drop Taylor for an offensive picture of Rihanna’s face after her assault from Chris Brown in 2009 posted up. Well those petitioners will be happy to know the Taylor has indeed been dropped from adidas and it seems to have something to do with her Rihanna beef. Teyana Taylor Gets Dropped By Adidas FOR REAL Over Rihanna Twitter Beef?
Did Teyana Taylor lose her Adidas deal because of her public Twitter beef with Rihanna? Her rep says no, but Adidas allegedly says YES. Deets inside, plus Cassie looking fab at Art Basel's VIP kickoff.... Twitter beefs rarely lead to anything good. Your fans may gas your head up that you punked somebody....but the corporate folks you get checks from just may punk you in return. When Teyana Taylor's new Adidas shoes never came out on the slated Black Friday date....folks started talking. Rumor had it she got dropped from the sneaker deal because of her bad behavior on Twitter. (Remember when she posted up Rihanna's battered face photo after they started beefing over Rih's hairstylist supposedly making fun of Teyanas singing?) Teyana's rep put out a statement days ago saying: Teyana has not been dropped, the sneaker is on hold, no other comments or statement is ready to be issued at this time.
But not so fast. a Senior VP at Adidas reportedly gave a website today an (unofficial?) statement as well. And THEY are saying they have indeed ended their partnership with TT...and they don't condone violence. “We have ended our relationship with Teyana Taylor and do not have any upcoming product launches with her. All I can say is that adidas partners with athletes and artists who blend well with our brand values. We evaluate our relationships with partners based on the values we hold at adidas and we don’t condone violence of any kind.”
Womp womp wooooomp. Messing up coins over an unnecessary Twitter beef? Social media aint for everybody. Teyana responded to today's development saying: 
Oh. ouch. BOW to the queen, TT.

What did she sell if they didn't get released? Did what without an album? Get dropped AND not be able to put your music out there. Rihanna had at least 3 clothing collections and made money off her album + world tour. I'm so confused
Then they just partnered with Kanye so...

I'm just saying I don't know who her parents are but she's been rich. She can afford to live out her life comfortably without ever working again. She's cool, but I don't really have sympathy for those types. She's nothing major. She can sit her ass down and give someone with actual talent a chance, not someone who's trying to buy their way into the industry.

I think she's released shoes with them already...they just aren't continuing business.

I don't think she was rich from family money. I think it was from getting signed by Pharrell before her sweet 16. I'm not saying she's destitute, but she's still on the come up...still no album, still nothing really except being photographed so she can't afford a blow like this.
She released a pair in Feb.
