It could conceivably get tough being Rihanna sometimes. Bring up the wrong topic of conversation on the wrong day, and it's probably no gem being the one interviewing her, either.

To be a bit cynical, one imagines that if Tina Fey is being truly prophetic, her art-imitating-life hit comedy "30 Rock" will end with the fictitious show it's centered on being cancelled amid hopeless, plummeting rating. The Emmy-winning comic actress, writer and "Saturday Night Live" alum dropped by "The View" Thursday morning. Of course, she was predictably hit with questions about recent tweets by "30 Rock" co-star Alec Baldwin claiming that he's "leaving NBC just in time."

Through the years, FOX has gained a deserved reputation for sometimes backing the wrong pony. Though some execs should forever be haunted by some bad decisions, there's at least a sense of appreciation for the ones that worked out.

Rose didn't simply publicly decline the invitation to attend this week's induction ceremony among fellow lineup inductees Slash, Izzy Stradlin, Duff McKagen and Steven Adler, Reuters reports. He wants his name struck from the Hall's record.
