....if the reports circulating the web are correct. Apparently, Rihanna's now ex-business manager, Patricia Willliams, says that Rihanna is blaming her for mismanaging funds when it's her own fault for not checking her label and the fine print.

MS. Williams, who says that she was terminated "for no good reason, all in ignorance" and is "livid" with Rihanna & her management company Rebel One's decision, disclosed that Rihanna recently met with Willliams to check on her accounting affairs and was shocked to see that almost all her money was missing. She instantly accused Willliams of "stealing her money."

"I'm a professional Business Manager, I have a staff of more than a dozen, I have worked for many high profile actors, musicians and multi-million dollar corporations. Why would I steal from Rihanna?" She continues, "I showed her all the paperwork and tried to explain to her the circumstances but she wouldn't listen. She called me all sorts of horrible names and stormed off. I now feel compelled to share with the world the background story as I will not allow my name to be slandered.
