Tuesday July 28,2009

Brit soul artist ESTELLE has blasted a U.K. tabloid over a report suggesting she is embroiled in an online war with RIHANNA - insisting she never made the comments.

Britain's The Sun newspaper alleged the American Boy singer took to her Twitter.com page to comment on the latest collaboration between Jay-Z and his protegee Rihanna, entitled Run This Town.

The publication reported that Estelle had claimed she could have sung the chorus better, and allegedly wrote on her blog, "Rihanna just doesn't do it for me.?

But the star has released a statement insisting the comment was made by one of her followers on the micro-blogging site.

She tells MTV.co.uk, ?Twitter is a funny old thing. I just need to be clear though. I have not said anything at all about me wanting to be on the Jay Z / Kanye / Rihanna track.

?Someone else twittered that remark to me and one of the U.K. tabloids then chose to 'rewrite' this and post it online... Watching this unfold, it is crazy that something that I didn't even say can end up as such a big news story.?
