<p>Howard Stern recently got a lil&#8217; bold while speaking about Rihanna&#8217;s Super Bowl halftime performance, and <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/safaree-samuels-speaks-out-about-suicide-rates-wants-to-keep-his-kids-offline-due-to-cyberbullying/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Safaree Samuels</a> unapologetically checked the radio personality via social media.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">Howard Stern Accuses Rihanna Of Lip Syncing: &#8216;I Don&#8217;t Even Know Why She Bothered Showing Up&#8217;</h3>
<p>The root of the issue lies in some <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/media/howard-stern-torches-rihanna-lip-synching-85-halftime-show-bothered-showing" target="_blank" rel="noopener">comments</a> Howard made in the wake of Rihanna&#8217;s performance. During Monday&#8217;s episode of <a href="https://twitter.com/sternshow" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Howard Stern Show</em></a>, the 69-year-old reportedly straight-up declared that he&#8217;s not sure why Rihanna &#8220;bothered showing up&#8221; for the performance in the first place.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;You know, I don’t even know why she bothered showing up.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>He further explained that, while he &#8220;love[s] Rihanna&#8217;s voice,&#8221; he believes that about &#8220;85 percent of that performance was lip synced.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I gotta tell you. I love Rihanna’s voice. I think it’s a wonderful voice. And I love how she interprets a song and every song they played there behind her was terrific&#8230;But I would say now, again, I could be wrong, but—in my opinion—85 percent of that performance was lip synced.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>We should also point out that Howard offered a rather unsavory &#8220;theory&#8221; as to why Rihanna was constantly dropping the mic &#8220;down by her knees&#8221; during the performance.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I had a theory, Rihanna was not lip-syncing, but she put the microphone near her vagina so the new baby could sing. The baby was singing backup.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Safaree Samuels Claps Back: &#8216;No Rihanna Slander Will Be Tolerated&#8217;</h3>
<p>On Wednesday, <em>Love &; Hip Hop: Atlanta </em>star Safaree Samuels got his Twitter fingaz ready and hit Howard with quite the response.</p>
<p>Safaree specifically declared, &#8220;No Rihanna slander will be tolerated by these white outlets.&#8221;</p>
<p>After dropping a quick F-bomb, he told Howard that his opinion is irrelevant, as &#8220;this isn&#8217;t 1995.&#8221; The reality star also told Howard Stern to &#8220;get a nose job&#8221; before slamming his &#8220;wannabe afro&#8221; hairdo. He proceeded to wrap up his message by telling Howard, &#8220;Go suck yuh mummma.&#8221;</p>
<p>In other words, Safaree came through and defended his fellow Caribbean artist in the face of Howard Stern&#8217;s criticism!</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;No Rihanna slander will be tolerated by these white outlets… F**K YALL. Howard stern this isn&#8217;t 1995 no 1 gives a f**k about ya opinion. Go get a nose job wit ya fake a** wanna be afro then go suck yuh mummma.&#8221;</p></blockquote>

<p>Howard doesn&#8217;t appear to have publicly acknowledged this tweet, though the Twitter masses appear to mostly be on Safaree&#8217;s side. Check out some other people&#8217;s responses down below.</p>
