Cassie and Rihanna Learn That Sex Doesn’t Always Sell
By GIANT May 18, 2009
Even though the prayers of millions of teenage boys were answered last week when nude photos of Cassie and Rihanna hit the Internet, the prayers of record executives weren’t. Neither singer saw a rise in sales for their respective songs, according to Neilsen Soundscan.
Rihanna actually took a slight tumble, with her song sales dropping to 44,000 last week, compared to 45,000 from the week prior. Cassie, whose pictures were far racier than Rihanna’s, stayed consistent in song download, selling only 2,000 during the respective sales period.

Since (I believe)she’s lied about how the fight really happened between her and Chris Brown, things haven’t been quite right for her. Kama is a funny thing, what goes around comes around. Until she makes it right nothing good is going to happen.
It damn sure doesnt sell if your a women of ethnicity.If it were a new Kardashian movie it would be off the shelves,since its colored women oh there just some stupid hoes!Real Talk!
well i thought after the beating rihanna would get more fans so the stats must not be right.
I so agree with rene1953. Rhianna’s little a** has never come off to me as a VICTIM of domestic abuse. She’s a little tramp w***e who has pretty much f**ked every man she has set her sights on. First it was Jay-Z and they had to squash that s**t before Beyonce got tired of the bull and put a Houston a** whooping on them both; so the record company pushed her off on Chris Brown whom she thought she could boss around!! Ca**ie..don’t like her, never have!!
Her album came out 2007 y r u sorry a** writers talkin bout song sales when the album went 12 times platinum????? And wat song is dis anyway??????
