Rihanna vs. Ciara - Rihanna clashed with Ciara when her fellow R&B singer-dancer-hottie dissed her in a TV interview with (guess who?) Joan Rivers, saying, "Rihanna used to be so nice. I ran into her at a party and she wasn't the nicest." Rihanna came right back at Ciara on Twitter: "My bad ci, did I 4get to tip u? #howrudeofme." Ciara replied with her own jab: "Trust me Rihanna u dont want to see me on or off the stage." Rih Rih's retaliation? "U gangsta huh? Haaa. Good luck with bookin that stage u speak of." Ouch!

Rihanna vs. Chris Brown - Rihanna's ex Chris Brown, convicted of assaulting her in 2009, seemed to add insult to injury when he spit a freestyle over Kanye West's "Way Too Cold": "Don't f--k with my old b---h, it's like a bad fur/ Every industry n---a done had her." After Brown tweeted the link, Rihanna unfollowed the star and wrote: "Aw, poor dat #neaux1currr." The hashtag was previously popular with Chris Brown's Twitter fans, a.k.a. "Team Breezy."(Photo: Stefan Jeremiah/WENN.com)

Karrueche Tran (Chris Brown's Girlfriend) - Rihanna took subliminal Twitter disses to new heights when she took a pic of a bag of rice cakes dressed up with sunglasses and hoop earrings accompanied by the tweet "I'ma make you my b---h." The caption is from her controversial duet with Chris Brown, "Birthday Cake (Remix)," in which she sings, "Remember how you did it? Remember how you fit it?/ If you still wanna kiss it, come, come, come and get it./ Sweeter than a rice cake." Many saw the lyrics, and the subsequent tweet, as a barb directed at Karrueche Tran, who's half Vietnamese. (Photo: Karrueche via Twitter)

Draya Michele - Another woman once linked to Breezy, Draya Michele — who's "famous" for appearing on Basketball Wives — was rumored to be the victim of Rihanna's sly Twitter shade-throwing tactics. After Rih appeared on the cover of Bazaar magazine, she tweeted, "I'm on a Bazaar cover #LegitEliteModelS--t #ph--kyocareer." Draya, an aspiring model, certainly seemed to be offended, immediately tweeting, "It always happens when I'm doing good. The devil takes form in these b---hes and causes them to think of me." The next day, she wrote, "I'm working, babe." Time for a walk-off, Zoolander-style. (Photo: Instagram)

Rihanna vs. Racist Magazine Editor - We all had Rihanna's back when she called out a Dutch magazine and its editor for using a racial slur to describe her style. "I hope u can read english, because your magazine is a poor representation of the evolution of human rights!" she wrote in a series of tweets. "I find you disrespectful, and rather desperate!! You ran out of legit, civilized information to print! You put two words together, with the intent of abasement, that made no sense…’N---A B---H’?!….Well with all respect, on behalf of my race, here are my two words for you…F--K YOU!!!"
