7. Rihanna
Rihanna has come under fire in recent years because her presence on social media has become far more edgier than her earlier years when she first arrived from Barbados. Some of her more provocative social media posts involved some that eluded to drug use, and even one romping with a stripper covered in money on Instagram. She was slammed by critics that said she wasn’t portraying her best self as a role model to young girls, but Rihanna continually refuted her willingness to fulfill the expectations of a “role model.” Some can forgive the fact that she should be allowed to post photos of her personal interests, even if that consists of naked stripper photos. Yet, there was an incident in 2014 that was much more difficult to forgive. Inspired by an ensemble Rihanna wore on the red carpet, 16-year-old Alexis Carter posted a photo of what she thought was a similar dress she wore to prom. Not only was she ridiculed by all of Twitter with the hashtag #PromBat, but Rihanna even posted a few tweets also making fun of the dress. Rihanna should definitely have accepted the imitation as flattery, or at least refrained from sharing her true feelings about the dress.
