In a new interview with Honey Magazine Fefe Dobson who we told you was coming back on the scene kept it 100% real when asked about comparisons with the current spike haired “it” girl Rihanna:
People say Rihanna bit your style.
I mean, for sure I question that, but who wouldn’t. She is supposedly a fan of mine. I try to take it as a compliment. It gets a little much when she starts getting the same tattoos as me but overall I just want people to separate the image and listen to the music. It’s about the music. Its like Prince and Michael Jackson, totally different artists. Or its like Kanye West and Jay-Z. So what? They are both black men, they sound different. So they both wear jeans, they are different. And why would you want the same type of artist?
I think you can tell when it’s contrived and when it’s authentic.
I agree. I do have to say one thing though, her songs are well written. I know Ne-Yo writes some stuff and he is an amazing writer but we’re just different.
Have you guys met?
Yeah, I met her when she was the dance hall queen with the long hair. She was a nice girl but very quiet.
Are we the ONLY ones that….ah, never mind we don’t want to start any trouble….

Fefe who???…..
rihanna was never a fashion forward only a swaggerjacker lmao
(kelis,fefe,estelle)
how can a barbadian lowborn be a fashionforward?
she can’t fool me
Ofcourse a Bajan born person can be fashion forward!
Being a Bajan woman myself, I think ur an ignorant piece of shite!
She may have been influenced by Fefe but who isn’t influenced by others?
She has created her own image with help from her stylists and the other amazing people around her and has ran with it and made it her own!
People change and people grow, maybe when she was younger (lets remember Rihanna came out the tender age of 17) Fefe was someone she looked to as style inspiration, but as she came into money she could explore and do all the things she wanted to do!
Being born in Barbados hinders her in no way, us Bajans can be very fashion forward!!!
U fool!
HHmmmm.. Speak the truth.
Who isn’t a swagger jacker anyway. Trust me, they are all wearing someone elses labels…
I do remember fefe though….
GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE FEFE DOBSON….IF RIHNNA TOOK YA STYLE AND RAN WITH IT..GET OVER IT..SHE DID IT BETTER THEN YOU DO..WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME I HEARD A SONG FROM YA ASS..DONT COME OUT NOW MAKING ALLEGATIONS YEARS AFTER THE FACT..GIMME A FUCKIN BREAK..I HATE PEOPLE LIKE YOU…DO YA THING AND BRUSH THE RIHANNA COMPARISONS…NOW YOU WANT TO EXTEND YA FAME OFF OF RIRI..GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE..
I love FeFe when she was out. I def think she is coming back out. She was on the VH1 special for the Beatles and I saw a concert on tv she did so I think she is coming back out.
@ anonymous… wtf is a “barbadian lowborn”? Seriously, who are you–royalty?! GTFOH you F’in clown! I’m not even from the islands and I’m insulted!
…as for Fefe, no one can steal anything from you if you have it locked down. But then again if you’re so original I’m sure you can come up with something better than what’s out.
Maybe you should do what she suggested and listen to her music before commenting.
^^^ she is a nice singer…..any comparisons of styles, clothes or whatever is very Juvenile to me…..grow up
She did swagger jack Fefe Dobson. However they are different artists. Fefe Dobson is more rock and she is 10 times a better performer then Rihanna.
@glen for sure Whorihanna is a talentess whore
this barbadian thang cant even sing, her father was a junkie and know she thinks that she can fool us
but she remains the chick with the naked pics all over the net
Get it biatch
GO FeFe! tell the truth.
Rhianna doesn’t have power behind her voice.
FE FE I HAVE HER FIRST ALBUM. WHAT THIS H*E NEED TO UNDERSTAND IT’S NOT ABOUT WHO DOES IT FIRST IT’S ABOUT WHO DOES IT BEST! F*** OUTTAHERE! SHE’S COMING BACK WITH AN ALBUM AND SHE USING RIRI’S NAME TO HELP! NOW, I CAN’T F*** WITH YOU!
@ANON- WHERE SHE’S FROM HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING. I HAVE A LOT OF CARRIBEAN FRIENDS. THEY HAVE SO MUCH STYLE! IGNORANT AZZ!
@Zero2sixty “…as for Fefe, no one can steal anything from you if you have it locked down. But then again if you’re so original I’m sure you can come up with something better than what’s out.”
VERY TRUE!
How is it juvenile when she was asked to comment about it? Her being honest about her opinion on the matter is not immature at all. Now some of the responses here show other wise.
Haha…this bitch is mad Jay-Z manufactured Rihanna into a superstar.
Now I’ve just lost all respect for FEFE . If you are an orginal artist and one with the real talent, don’t bitch about someone taking your style and image.Don’t just go off in hiding for years and now coming back years after the fact and saying someone else success is because they copied your style and have good writers. How piss poor is that , you she be mad at the record label that dropped you, not Rihanna.I’m sure they told Rihanna what they wanted and she said ok and produce the image they liked.That’s how she got to become a superstar and you were left behind.Maybe if you had done what they wanted you would be bigger right now . You and Tearria are sorry excuses for Artists. Pointing fingers at Rihanna is not going to help either of you sell records .Artist like your self need to understnad that you are in thee Entertainment Business and only one thing matters at the end of the day , that’s making money.So from a CEO’s point of view , If you are trully talented no one can Steal or Copy your style further more take your spot in this world.If you try and fail you should have the balls to get right back up and start again with out blaming anyone for your lack of success.
I respect her honesty but it does happen all the time. Does anyone remember the last VMA when Christina did her “club” rendition of “Genie in a bottle” & what she looked like? She straight took Gaga’s whole style down to the hair.
anonymous sounds like lolita
@lol
sounds like “WHO THE HELL IS LOLITA…”
DANG IS IT YOU?
Wow .. I’m so offended for fefe.. Rihanna is a fuckin swagger jacker fefe was asked a question and. Gave a HONEST answer which no one seems to kno how to do n e more.. I rock wit fefe soo hard she’s right and if I were her I’d do the same.. One HAS to respect origionality.. Wat would yall do if it we’re you!? Just cuz rihanna’s modelesque qith hov behind her she gets to steal someones identity ? Nah same tattoos is too much.. I don’t care for rih rih muscially at all pretty girl.. Wack artist. Period.
Love Fefe! Taking the style and concept from another person is one thing, but tattoos is too damn far. I like Rihanna, but FeFe is way better.. esp the music! Shes authentic, Rihanna is more generic. And Fefe wasn’t blaming anyone. She was ASKED the question. She simply answered… Ppl have been saying Rihanna jacked Fefe for the longest (since 07)… this is nothing new ppl!
Wow its so crazy how when ri ri first did her lil transformation and what not after looking at her the frist person I thought of was “Fe fe” like yooooo I thought she str8 bit off her! and ain’t nobody say shit about it before because at the end of the day it was like Fe Fe who? And that’s all that really mattered to people ri ri making hot music and wearing cool cloths therefore she’s hott ….bullshit! People seem to forget she has a stylist yo…that puts together the majority of her HOTT ass outfits now that chick or dude that’s behind the scenes is a fly ass dresser bump ri ri she’s just the hanger …real talk! I will def give it to Fe Fe tho she’s been 100% herself since day one
Rihanna has always been vibeless. Now they make sure to keep her ass out to distract from her lame performance. Hova made sure to keep her out of Beyonce’s hair – jacking Fefe was less dangerous.
What a joke. She’s supposed to be a tough bad girl and she still got her ass cut.
