Quote from herboyfriend:
As far as Rihanna is concerned, I don't see her as able to do much harm; to me she's a bit pseudo-ghetto, a tough princess who wouldn't stand much of a chance against an actual tough woman. But so we all perceive them differently! This match was somebody else's suggestion first, and I found it a good matchup which outcome isn't so clear right from the start but quite a big question mark.
Of course, that's what's sooo much fun about these celebrity stories/poll fights.... almost ALL the "real" celebrities wouldn't deign to break a fingernail dealing with someone else (they all have 'people for that') but it's great fun to imagine "what if?" they actually had to back up their interview words, their deeds, and songs, (plus movie roles) in "real" life (as opposed to "reel" life).
In most of the stories on these boards, we imbue our characters with the skills, attributes (attitudes!) and physical skills we see them play at, rather than what they may actually have. I suppose that's because - especially for the actors - IT'S ALL MAKE BELIEVE! It's unbelievable how much a good script, a fine director - and a highly talented stunt double - can skew our perception of someone's real self.
Well, count me among the "suckers" because I buy into it every dam time!
