RICKY IS SUCH A GOOD MAN AND I LOVE THAT HE IS ALWAYS CONCERNED WITH ISSUES THAT ACTUALLY MATTER. BTW, I MET HIM AND HIS A SWEETHEART, VERY HUMBLE AND DOWN TO EARTH.
honestly, he doesn’t come across that way from how he’s portrayed by the media, but you’re right.
That’s because he does most of his charity work quietly with out looking for media…’, ‘attention. Those stupid “reporters” only interested in digging for dirt or inventing stories, instead doing little research about Ricky’s charity work and giving Ricky the respect he deserves.
I hope that Ricky sues the arrogant contract breaching behinds of Handprint and Medina, but as I know Ricky , he will behave like the gentleman he is and not stoop to their level.
