Rihanna: "I Just Gave You Herpes". Irresponsible Radio?

It's rumored that Rihanna gave Chris Brown herpes, adding to the domestic assault scandal that has taken the media by storm. This week, the Enrique Y Joe morning radio show in Miami released a video spoof of Rihanna's "Don't Stop the Music" titled, "I Just Gave You Herpes".

Take a look at the video below. Is it funny, or completely tasteless? Should the morning DJs really be making fun of this when there is an alleged assault involved? Does a radio morning comedy show need to be somewhat morally responsible?

I think that was rude. Rumors are just rumors after all. And maybe she'll come back and sue them! Haha

Good beat and the singing was excellent!! Probably in bad taste, but it sure was entertaining!!

How crass.

It will sell as it is by a popular artist and even the negative gets you popular in show biz.

If she did do it, she should just fess up to the dirt. If not, a slander, civil suit is a comin'.

Bad taste? Yeah but it's a well produced parody.

if its openly a comedy show, and the station has been known to exaggerate the truth and the news, no they arent responsible to be morally correct.

It's in bad taste if you ask me.
