Stay Strong RiRi..

FAKE FAKE FAKE! CHRIS IS THE VICTIM!

1st?

second

WHERE DID THE ACCENT GO, RHI-RHI? SCAM ARTIST!!!

Team Riri

still pretty, no talent

15 minutes are officially up…

time to go back to the island…

Now can we move on?

Lucky for Chris he started to sell those tickets to his tour before this aired…

It’ll be interesting to see how well his album sells and also how Rihanna’s Album sells as well…

Some idiots will go to his concert no matter what, to fool should go back to school, not stage.

Loving Rhianna’s new hair do, most probably sick and tired with every black female artist cutting their hair short and busting the same hair do!

rihanna understands that this is a business. she’ll milk this moment for exposure and dollars as long as the public supports it.

For me the most interesting part of this interview was when Rihanna said Chris Brown “had no soul in his eyes” well for course he had no soul in his eye, Chris Brown just like Rihanna sold his soul to saint he is soul-less. He has no compassion for anyone, this guy is possessed just like most artists such as Rihanna, beyonce, Jayz, Kanye, etc.

This will be my last time saying anything abt the Chris Brown & Rihanna situation. Whether she hit him first or not(and in the interview she said that she did not hit him)she was brutally beaten and that was wrong! People r going on and on about how this is a publicity stunt to boost album sales but was it a publicity stunt to boost album sales when Whitney Houston went on Oprah right before her album was released? If Chris Brown was able to speak out about what happened that night, then why can’t Rihanna? It saddens me to see so many women jumping to Chris Brown’s defense. Maybe she did have jealousy issues, but we don’t know that. That is just speculation but what we do know is she was badly beaten and no woman deserves that, whether she provoked him or not. Everytime someone calls Rihanna a liar they’re making it that much harder for other battered women to come forward. It’s never right to say that the victim deserved what they got. I just hope they both get the help they need and find closure on this so that they can move forward with their lives.

Domestic violence is wrong on EITHER side… good interview though.

I don’t see how he comes back from this. Remember white kids buy the majority of the cd’s. It’s a wrap.

SHE’S A LIAR!

That big a$$ forehead of hers hasn’t been looking soo big as of late…

Anyways, I wonder how Christopher Maurice Brown will respond to this, that’ll be interesting because you can only do some many interviews wearing a bow tie and not saying nothing about what happened that night, whereas Rihanna just told her side of the story…

SMH @PEOPLE TRYING TO MAKE IT SEEM LIKE RIHANNA IS THE VICTIM!

at haryn….u r mistaken black women are not the only women who accepts this behavior all cultures accepts it regardless of race, culture, political influence….it remains as their little secret. many women place themselves in protective housing so that their mates will not find them to potential kill them. this is not a black/brown/white/yellow issue…its an world issues…societal!

@whats up with that….
thank you……….

Glad she finally talked about this!

I am surprised by how WOMEN put MEN(abusive ones at that)on this ridiculously high pedestal-She let this boy off the hook, should have pressed all kinds of charges against him. He did go on his publicity tour and now it her turn, so let the girl talk.

Just keep silent Chris, if you’re sorry that is exactly what you should do. Man up!!

noone is excusing ANY of Chris’s behaviour, however, anyone with a heart abd decent mind can see he’s not that old and to label him a woman beater, in my opinion doesn’t seem fair…He’s not even legal yet. He’s been to court and I think he should have another chance…

FOR THE LAST TIME: NOONE IS EXCUSING WHAT HE DID..

BUT I WILL NOT BE HATING HIM FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE, LIKE SOME OF YOU….

and stop trying to make this personal, this is about them, not me..

All yall need to stop riding CB! Yall girls act like he wants you! You don’t know him! Fu**** stalkers. Get a fu*** life. Stop trying to protect someone you don’t know cause you think you got a chance with him!

I love RIHANNA! She did a GREAT JOB.. Answered all the questions. Not like Chris

Its a damn shame that the only group of people that will stand by the side of a black woman are white people
____________________

that’s not true…

I just feel her timing is suspect…

but that’s just me…

And for someone who was only interested in dating wht guys, this is not a surprise that she threw him under the bus…But whatev……

Glad it’s over and hope they both move on…..

it’s getting personal, I’m out…

have a great weekend, HATERS

Rihanna seemed almost robotic in that interview. It seemed as if her decisions were based on what people told her. If she hadn’t considered other people’s opinions, she would still be with Chris Brown. That is why she said she didn’t know what the future holds as to her relationship with Chris Brown. Her first impulse was to stay with him, but she decided to take the advice of others and that is why they are not together. They are both very young and impressionable. Rihanna has not yet come into her womanhood.

February 8, 2010, WILL BE THE ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THIS EVENT. WHEN THIS DATE COMES, EVERY MAN HAS THE RIGHT TO LAY THE SMACK DOWN ON ANY WOMAN WITHOUT BEING PUNISHED!

THE FOOLS THAT ARE RIHANNA STANS NEED TO GET A GRIP. THERE WERE SOOOOOOOOO MANY HOLES IN HER ACT. SHE IS NOT GETTING RAVE REVIEWS AND RD RUNNING TO EVERY BOARD IS NOT GOING TO HELP HER.

HE’LL BE FINE. HE HAS THE TALENT, SHE DOES NOT. EVEN HER BS WILL NOT GET HER THRU. I’M GLAD THIS IS THE END OF THIS BS SAGA. IF YOU BELIEVE THAT GIRL DID NOT HIT HIM AT ANY TIME, THEN MOST OF YOU ARE AS BIG OF A JOKE AS SHE IS.

WOW! I”m actually shocked that ppl up here ain’t defending him. I’m glad she did the interview so she can speak on her side. She had no reason to come forward previously remember she’s the victim not him. That girl knew she couldn’t promote her album without it being brought up over and over again so that’s y she spoke up now. I’m all for giving the man another chance to change but ppl up here be defending him like a mutha and he already manned up. Stop giving the boy an excuse n let him do what a real man should! smh I hope they both can bounce back from this!

OK… I loved the interview, except for one thing. Peep out at the last 4 minutes or so when this 21 year old CHILD corrected Diane Sawyer… the JOURNALIST!

Rhianna did a great job in her interview. She was forthright and real. She was and still is a woman in love. Chris has done a lot of good things. He’s givin to charity. He’s helped Oprah Winfrey in some of her philanthropic endeavors. He’s simply a talented young man who needs to get some help. He’s still young enough to change his life. I believe he will learn from this and he will grow from it. Ultimately he should be forgiven and allowed to live a full and productive life. These kids are too young to have been involved in such an intense relationship. They both need time to grow up. Chris needs to be guided through this just like Rhianna.

Im SOOOOOO tired of this mess. Rhianna needs to go sit down somewhere. If youre going to tell THE story then tell 100% of the story. If you hit him also be woman enough to say it. Playing the damn victim is a lie that educated people can see through. Dont go raising your hands to anyone be it man or woman and expect to be a victim in anyone’s eyes. You my dear are SHADY. Chris Brown might have lost the quick to judge ignorant fans but darling YOU’VE lost the educated ones. GOOD DAY
!!!

I totally agree with you BrownEyes.. It saddens me how our own people, especially females are saying she hit him first or she did something to provoke him. Answer this question, if that was your mother, sister or daughter, would you be saying she did something to provoke him to get beaten up like that? Remember, Rihanna is a human being first, a celebrity second. And as far as she’s doing this interview to sell recors, not one time in the interview did they mention she’s dropping an album. Stop being so judgemental people, and let’s learn to love and respect one another.

being strong and continue to make millions….all of the negative people make coins reading your story. I am a big rih fan and will continue to support her.

I’m a black 33 year old female, and I was in a abusive relationship at a young age and I got out,but I took that abuse into the next relationship and I was aggressive and I hit my bf…she is the same way, she is a fiesty girl and she likes to fight I see straight through her, you can see it in her eyes. I will be buying Chris Brown cd for my daughter when it comes out I might buy 5 or 6 copies to support him, and I don’t care who don’t like my comment…we all make mistakes! Oh BTW,I learned alot over the years and grew up and now the guy that I abused we are married now and we don’t fight anymore it’s all about if you want to change and let go of the past and I did!

why yall wanna keep charging this man.yall know yall was clappin when O.J. got off then went and read his book.riri is wrong and she knows it.she didnt help women.she destroying a mans well being. right when his album is comming out the story comes.you dont think her label insisted on her doing this story at this time so she would not have to compete wit chris on the music charts.she was a puppet in that interview.in that situation u would let it be known as soon as possible to help other young women in crisis not months later.dont say she had to heal b’cause she made that new album all in healing right on time no push backs.

I don’t get why people don’t understand that chris plend guilty. you don’t plend guilty unless you did something wrong.
Maybe the witnesses to the screaming. the bloody rhi-rhi. that bloody car. Come on people why shouldn’t she talk. She has to do a press tour. the best way to answer questions she going to get a million times is to do one big interview. Come on people.

Ppl do wrong; realize the wrong and grow from them. Chris Brown just like anyone else deserves forgiveness.
worry about it, if/when he proves he has not changed.

Am I the only one that thinks shes not telling the entire story. What about her throwing the keys out the window. What about her slapping him while he was driving. Im not sayin that she should have been beat up, but women need to stop thinking I can hit him and he wont hit me back. Stop it…

This topic is old. Whatever happened has been dealt with. I’m tired of this same old topic. He hit her and she went back so obviously it wasn’t that bad. SHe is not an example for anyone. She sleeps around and that’s it. If he’s talented he will prevail she will prevail because she is a light skinned chick. Please focus on the families in Fort Hood Texas that lost their family members and the wounded. OLD NEWS!

I thought it was a very good interview.

she fessed up to feeling everything a normal person in her situation would and should feel…….which made the interview come off as sincere.

It does sound like she may have had some therapy sessions; but she has always sounded as if she has/had a good head on her shoulders.

A little more time to her self and she will be firmly stating that she will never get back with Chris.

She is right in understanding that even if she did hit Chris, he had no right trying to beat her within an inch of her life.

I am not for a man hitting a woman at all – totally against it – but everyone has to be acountable for their actions. She has to admit she was also apart of the problem in this case…Chris is not telling his side because people will take it as he has no remorse

Stay Strong Ri-Ri.
God Bless both of them

“Its a damn shame that the only group of people that will stand by the side of a black woman are white people.”

Interesting point. I did note that in the initial aftermath of this incident, I was struck by a commentary written by a white woman who was physically abused by her husband on CNN. She found a commonality with Rihanna.

If you compare to the reactions to this case in the black and white communities, there does seem to be a suggestion that violence, on some level, is perceived as an acceptable form of expression/reaction by certain members of the black community, both male and female (not to say that there aren’t plenty of abusive men of all races). I also thought this may serve as a larger example of how violence against black women is regarded — do some of us, on some level, think sisters somehow deserve to be mistreated, or are incapable of being victims?

Young love! I will not take sides. As a mother of a son, I cannot take sides. One thing that we can teach our boys is this (Gucci said it best,”Girls are like bus’s, miss one, next 15 ones coming! A man should never put their hands on a woman (unless the man needs to defend himself).

In a sense, I do feel that black women have been dehumanized, in both mainstream culture and by members of our own race, and it’s not just a mindset held by men. I think some sisters have also internalized this destructive frame of thinking as well.

“who attacks someone while they’re DRIVING and expect them not to retaliate? ”

What are you talking about? you need to go learn the facts of the case. chris was not attacked. not even chris says that.

lol @ pumpkin head

Some of you are fools, Chris offered no explanation except for him blacking out… at least Rihanna is telling her side. Many of you dont like her anyway so why do you expect her to please you in her answers? Per Rihanna, Ignorance!

And if her blank a55 eyes don’t tell how insincere she is, I don’t know what does.

This illuminati trick didn’t work on me. I’m still following world news.. And I still know what they planing. (GOT MY EYE ON YOU FEMA.)

The white media is exposing them both and using them.
The both need to shut up and move on!! I think it’s killing both their careers.

I do not know what it is, but there is something fishy about her. She seems to be rather fake! They talk about her as if she cured Cancer. She is a singer, someone who does things and has a career that BENEFITS herself, not anyone else. I mean this alien is so full of herself!

I THINK THIS SITUATION HAS COME FULL CIRCLE AND IT IS TIME FOR CHRIS AND RIHANNA TO MOVE ON WITH THEIR LIVES!! WE WILL NEVER KNOW WHAT REALLY HAPPENED THAT NIGHT, IT WILL BE CHRIS WORD VS RIHANNA WORD. I DON’T THINK CHRIS A BUSTA!! HE IS PAYING FOR HIS ACTIONS, NOW LET HIM LIVE HIS LIFE!!

You can say black women this black women that. I am proud to be no part of the MASSES. The masses are easily fooled. Rihanna CD will sell because you can tell the MASSES anything. She fooled the world in 28 minutes and I am proud to say you just can’t tell me anything just because I put it on your channel your influence means nothing and you can keep it. Just because you tell my to go buy brown sugar don’t mean I am going to run to the store. I would feel stupid if I knew you could alter my decision just by the way you set your show up, or the question you ask, or the emotion you try to play off. I don’t play that fooling the masses stuff. I see right through it. On the other hand I thought 90% of what she was saying was true. Don’t say someone is hating on black women just because common sense will tell you women can be just as crazy as men. I am not the MASSES so you have to convince me. Just because you set your show up a certain way and ask questions accordinly don’t mean nothing.Sorry Mass America. It’s so easy to do and I will have no part of it.Mas my u know what

SHUT UP ALL OF YOU
SHUT UP
Regardless weather she provoked him or not.
NO MAN HAS THE RIGHT TO HIT A WOMAN and i dont care about her timming of the interview, the fact is he shouldnt have done it regardless. I am glad she is trying to be ROLE MODEL, YOUNG GIRLS will see that interview and draw strenght from it AND THAT IS WHAT REALLY MATTERS.
BY SHE NEVER GOING BACK TO HIM, HE WILL KNOW THAT IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, WORDS DON’T TEACH, ONLY LIFE EXPERIENCES DOES

“who attacks someone while they’re DRIVING and expect them not to retaliate? ”

What are you talking about? you need to go learn the facts of the case. chris was not attacked. not even chris says that.

Who drives an starts a fight while they’re driving?

Rihanna did not take responsibility for her part in the confrontation! It is sending the wrong message to just blame the guy for his part but forgetting accountability for yourself.

@Ken, she’s a role model for what, exactly?

Big up to rihanna! She is so maturer then i thot. Bravo to her…….I love that she’s getting herself back together….Chris brown on the otherhand need to grow up and ask God to forgive him.

Still feeling as though she’s not telling the whole truth. It seems as though she initiated the fight and put her hands on him because of the text that in her own words “she wouldn’t let go,” and he took off on her. Everyone has their breaking point, and clearly he reached his. I will never feel sorry for Chris because as a man he should have gotten out of the car, and left her sitting there or at least put her out of the car. Rihanna told the story, but never once did she tell what she was saying before he got violent or what she was doing before he struck her…She almost did, but then she went into saying “even if I had hit him first, he had no right to do this to me.” Which is wrong on so many levels, you shouldn’t hit anyone expecting that you won’t get hit back.
But it seems as though this is how the dynamic was in their relationship and it got out of hand. They both are victims of their immaturity.

Im a female but i still do not believe Rihanna. Just like Chris she needs to woman up and tell the real truth about what happens. Chris is not crazy for just hitting her like that. And if she really wake up the next day hating him so much why did she go to P Diddy house for the weekend with him? why did she choose to do a interview now when her album will be releasig. she is a fraud thats what she is and i have no respect for her.i have no respect for her.Didnt they say she has Herpes

Rihanna is a fak fake fake fake fake fake fake fake fake fake

i wish she quit playing the victim i still like chris and i guess she alright to

she sounds fake and those are not her words she practised that months on end wih her p r team , its not right for men to beat women but rihanna is so full of herself

Rihanna is a liar liar liar liar liar she need to go back to Barbados and leave my fello american alone.

Go back to Barbados

I think both of them are dead wrong. Chris was wrong for putting his hands on Rihanna but she is wrong for not fessing up to the whole story of what happened that night. Some of us women think that just because we are female that it is ok for us to hit our men without worrying about them hitting us back and that is not how is should be. if Rihanna said that she did not hit him i guess we weill just have to take her word for it. But a part of me believes it to be untrue.but i guess we will never know because non of us were there.

This thing was a blessing in disguise. Chris didn’t want to be a batterer, but it was there burried in his subconscious mind. This relationship brought it to light and now he can deal with it. I believe her when she said she didn’t hit him to provoke the beating, but I’m sure she has her own issues to deal with. I’m really hoping they can take a breather and get the help they need and come back together. The fact is the love was real.

UMMMM ARE YOU GUYS MISSING THINGS? CHRIS NEVER TOLD WHAT HAPPENED EITHER, HE SAID HE BLACKED OUT……

I totally think because hes black white people want to bury him think about it thats how they see black guys anyway. look at all those white actors who beat their wives and girlfriends you do not hear them talk about it like this case.

RIHANNA IS THE VICTIM, SHE WAS BATTERED. DONT YOU THINK CHRIS BROWN’S ATTORNEY WOULD HAVE GONE TO TRIAL AND RELEASED PICTURES OF CHRIS? THEY DIDNT BECAUSE CHRIS DID NOT HAVE A LEG TO STAND ON, WITNESSES HEARD RIHANNA SCREAMING FOR HELP IN THE STREET, RIHANNA’S BLOOD WAS OVER THE CAR, RIHANNA’S FACE WAS BATTERED, CHRIS IS A FELON ON PROBATION. INNOCENT PEOPLE DONT PLEAD GUILTY

LIKE I SAID, MOST OF YOU DESPISE HER ANYWAY SO WHAT SHE SAYS WILL NEVER PLEASE YOU. …. GUESS WHAT CHRIS IS A FELON, HE THREW HIMSELF UNDER THE BUS

And why isn’t anyone talking about Chris’s MTV interview? It was the best and most real interview he’s done since the incident. He is VERY immature which makes them being in a relationship at all a little strange, but I think he is sorry and is really working on the issues that he acknowledges he has even if some of the fans don’t want to see it. He’s doing the right thing to combat his problem.

IF YOU NOTICE ON 20/20 THE YOUTUBE FOOTAGE WAS BLACK PEOPLE STATING SHE MUST HAVE DONE SOMETHING, AND THE WHITE FOOTAGE WAS IN SUPPORT OF HER.

ive been abused my ex swung on me while i was driving she put cars in reverse while driving on the highway;women can be extremely violent and i learned the hardway . I hope riri didnt do that to CB in a lambo rental as alleged. This is why its better to walk away.

Why are women so stupid. If a man beats their ass, sometimes they run back to them in the name of LOVE. WOMEN STOP BEING STUPID.

I love RiRi & Chris Brown. However I think Brown is taking to much of the blame. Why is his career tanking and Riri still on top. I have seen a couple of reports and she has hit him a few times. I think that we are send the message that its o.k. to hit a man but if he hits you back call the police. SMDH

To OMG – You made a point just now that I didn’t even think about. How is she sitting in this interview accepting the responsibility of being a role model to young girls and then having her new album look and sound the way it does?

I still support him and will buy his CD. And I could care less who thinks that is stupid. he made a mistake and I believe that he is sorry for him mistakes. I forgive him and will be supporting his music.

I COMMEND RIHANNA B’CUS IT IS CLEAR TO ME SHE IS STILL IN LOVE WITH HIM BUT SHE MADE A DECISION BASE ON HER INFLUENCE ON OTHER GIRLS….THAT IS A PURE SELFLESS ACT.GIVing UP LOVE TO SAVE SOMEONE.. HARD!!! BRAVO RIHANNA! AGAIN U HAVE TRULY SHOWN THAT U R STRONG, A STRONG BLACK woman .THERe R women out there who r way older than u & have not gotten the message as yet,for some it has taken their whole life for others it has taken their lives. rihanna i have nothing but the upmost respect for u.

CHRIS BROWN IS TAKING ALL THE BLAME BECAUSE HE BEAT HIS GIRLFRIEND UP. ONCE OUT OF THE CAR HE WAS STILL HITTING HER BECAUSE WITNESSES HEARD HER SCREAMING FOR HELP. CHRIS IS BIGGER THAN HER AND IN PROFICIENT IN KARATE HE KNOWS MOVES TO SUBDUE AND ATTACKER, INTEAD HE WAS PUTTING HER IN A HEADLOCK AND SOCKING HER UP. RIHANNA DIDNT CAUSE THOSE BRUISES, I DONT REMEMBER SEEING PICTURES OF CHRIS BROWNS WOUNDS… WHERE IS THE MUGSHOT? RIHANNA IS THE VICTIM, SHE WAS LEFT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BATTERED AND INJURED. SOME OF YOU CHICKS ARE SO BRAND NEW, I CAN SEE HER HITTING HIM ONCE OR TWICE BUT HE BEAT HER UP…. CHRIS THREW RIHANNA’S PHONE OUT THE CAR WHILE DRIVING WHEN SHE WAS TRYING TO CALL FOR HELP, TRYING TO GET OUT.
CHRIS BROWN WENT OFF ON HIS MOTHER AT A HOTEL, HE DAMAGED THE ENTIRE ROOM AND HAD TO PAY FOR THE INCIDENT AND IT WAS KEPT FROM MEDIA.

Domestic voilence is not about black or white the issue at hand is no one has the right to put there hands on anyone regards of who hit first,I don’t agree with most of you poster stating black women have down rihanna because once again you don’t know every black women. You only know the ones in your immediate circle..so when you generalize realize that no one person is the same! God does not duplicate..I do feel bad for rihanna,her interview was good but when diane asked her about previous police reports stating chris push her in the wall I was a little taken a back with her response…I hope they have both learned from this experience and can move on with there life’s. I wish them both the best.

@ DARA! THANK YOU FOR YOUR POSITIVE COMMENTS..THEY HAVE DEFINATELY BEEN EMBRACED. MY HUSBAND SAID THE SAME THING TOO.

awww young people get it together!!!! you know this is crazy respect and love one another STOP THE VIOLENCE!!!

* telling her not to go back*

Awww STOP THE VIOLENCE!!

I just think its absolutely desperate and pathetic for some of these “women” justifying his actions. If she hit him, (as they love to say, even though Chris and Rihanna never said she did and it was never brought up in court by his attorneys), how come his face wasn’t just little bit bruised? How come she looked like a bloody pulp and he didn’t? Some of you all need to get that hood mentality out of your system.

Kenny,

You can’t justify Riri putting her hands on him as well. Violence is Violence. Like I said the court system is teaching lil girls that it is ok to hit a man. That the man just has to sit there and be a punching bag or slapping bag.

“The fact is the love was real.”

How is an abusive relationship “love?”

@Dara

Absolutely beautiful post. It may fall on deaf ears, but your husband said what any truly healthy, considerate man would say. There is absolutey nothing normal nor loving about this situation.

@ Dara – I think your words came from a positive place, but it troubles me that you lump those of us who choose to forgive Chris Brown as females who “think you are worthless and not deserving of being treated as a Queen.” And then you say God Bless. Last time I checked God is a forgiving God. I believe there is a difference between those who excuse Chris Brown’s actions and condone violence versus those of us who are choosing to act Christ like. Both kids need emotional support, therapy and prayer. We can worry about album sales later.

i love rihanna for not being fake, and lying about the situation. chris said in a statement he hope she keep details between them. chris thats devil talk the devil love to keep things in the dark and secret. proud of riri.

HOW CAN YOU DUMB BUTTS THAT CALL YOURSELF TAKING UP FOR RIHANNA SAY THAT “YOU DON’T CARE IF SHE HIT HIM” IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE VIOLENCE IS VIOLENCE. YET YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO CALL SOMONE ELSE DUMB AND STUPID. TAKE A MIRRIOR LOOK

Someone asked where did the accent go? We all know people in show business are encourage to take Diction to learn to speak well. Diction can also help one overcome heavy accents that can hold them back because they hard to understand. Rihanna sounded very intelligent, wise, and together for her age. Ignorant, uneducated, haters can’t see what we see…or know what most of us know. There response comes from a place of ignorance and self-hate. Low self-esteem leads to self-hate, jealousy, pain, and the works. Therefore, people in that state see the world through different lenses.

I dont really care about Riri. or Chris Brown. I dont think abuse is right. At the same time I dont really buy her as a victim.

SHE COULD HAVE LEFT HIM LONG TIME AGO,WHEN HE HIT HER THE FIRST TIME,BOTTOM LINE IS THAT SHE GOT MAD CAUSE CHRIS WAS CREEPING ON HER WITH OTHER GROUPIES,SHE GOT MAD TOOK THE PHONE THREW IT TOOK THE KEYS,HE GOT MAD AND OF COURSE HES A GUY,HE BLEW UP ON HER NOW SHES PLAYING THE VICTIM ROLE,I DONT BELIVE HER FOR I OR 2 SEC I BELIVE THEY BOTH TO BLAME NOWBODY SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT HER BOSS BEATING UP ON BEYONCE OUTSIDE A RESTRUANT UP IN HOLLYWOOD LAST YEAR,THEY CAPT THAT REAL QUIET,CANT STAND HIPOCREATS.AND SHE GOT AN ALBUM COMMING OUT,LETS MOVE ON ALREADY EVERYTIME SHE HAS A ALBUM RELASE WE GOT TO HERE THIS

HOW COME NOWBODY SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT HER BOSS JAY Z BEATIN DOWN BEYONCE OUTSIDE A RESTRAUNT UP IN HOLLYWOOD LAST YEAR HIPOCRETS

Dara- You sound so stupid. You are so busy bashing CB you missed your own point. Your man said “it does not matter if you hit or spit or slap him he will not hit you”. The point is if a female have a problem you deal with it not ignore.If Rihanna has anger issues you deal with the issues. Not overlook us as women. You will go into your next relationship the same way.If I have problems don’t ignore my issues. I am offended no one cares about women all because you are ready to walk down a sorry as man.What about me and my pain!

if your homegirl or homeboy came up to you and said, ” I had to beat my son in the middle of Walmart today” more than likely the first thing out of your mouth would be “Why,what did he do?” .Rihanna did something to provoke Chris, that’s just cold hard fact and logic, no one is ever beaten without provocation(except if the attacker is just psychologically unstable) even if it’s something as simple as looking at somebody the wrong way, or being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Not saying it’s right, but that’s what it is. When someone questions Rihanna’s role in the incident, that’s not messed up, that’s just real. All these folks crying “A woman was beaten and that’s never okay” yeah you’re right,violence directed towards persons of both genders is never okay, but ish happens, it happens everyday, the only thing that shocks me about domestic violence these days is that people still act so shocked when they hear about it taking place.This is the world we live in, deal with it, instead of spending you’re time and energy getting your Dr.Phil on in internet forums, why don’t you volunteer at you local battered women’s shelter and deal with the situations taking place right down the street?

HOW COME NOWBODY SAYING ANYTHING ABOUT HER BOSS JAY Z BEATIN DOWN BEYONCE OUTSIDE A RESTRAUNT UP IN HOLLYWOOD LAST YEAR HIPOCRETS HIPOCRETS

Rihanna is not playing victim. She’s simply telling the truth. She is a strong woman and even said that she doesn’t want to seen as a weak victim and was embarrassed/humiliated. She was not being the crying victim, etc. This young lady exuded strength and truth in her interview. Chris Brown is the only one trying to figure out how play victim. Rihanna didn’t go to ABC or 20/20. A number of them have been trying to land her for this interview for a long time. However, Chris Brown has been popping up on interviews left and right since the incident. This woman can’t have one interview without dysfunctional people on here trying to shut her down to keep the truth from coming out. Chris Brown was the only one trying to whimp out and play victim but we’re not buying it…and that’s the killer! And the Truth has set Rihanna free! Chris and his lies will keep him in a life of torment!!

“no one is ever beaten without provocation”

There are women (and some men) who are abused every day with no provocation.

I don’t know if people are shocked by the occurrence of domestic violence as much as they are by some of the comments made here (or at least I am). More than one person has proclaimed that women aren’t beaten unless they provoke the assault. That’s mind-blowing.

I have some questions and I’m NOT trying to be sarcastic……

If he beat the BRAKES off her, if she is so over him etc. etc. etc., why does she STILL want the restraining order lifted?

If she was genuinely abused and she is in the position to move on, why still leave avenues opened for him to return?

In the words of Chrisette Michele “Blame on me, say it’s my fault. Say that I left you outside in the cold with a broken heart…..”

Hi Sydney!

I missed you the other day in the “Sextra” thread.

Question–Do you consider this a classic case of domestic violence?

I can understand y people feel this way about Rhianna…I feel sorry for her rather if she hit back or not and I also feel sorry for C.B. as well…

Who are we to judge someone on there actions!!! CB was in a situation where he let his actions interefer with his feelings which alot of us do rather it be physical or mentally. Many of u who are judging this situation and talking badly on Chris Brown have prob been in this situation or never been in this situation to understand the outcome. I do not beleive Rhi on y she went to back to C.B. I honestly think she went back because of the same reason alot of woman go back because the love is still there and she wanted to be with him. I also think she never would have left if it wasnt for the industry down grading her decision and those who are in her everyday life.

How can u turn your back on someone who has made one bad mistake(in our eyes)which we have support for years b4 Rhianna was even heard of. How can Rhianna say b look at as an postive ispiration when her next album(Rated R) consist on negative(demonic) inspiration. (Come on now u have gotten the young womens attention and now u going to sing about russian roulette…interesting sounds demonic to me if u think of it)She should have been reaching out to her fans to shoe how she has moved on and the success it brings when u do….I think both of them need our support instead of just leaving one out in the cold and let God continue to the do the judging.

KEM AND DEE YALL NEED TO SHUT THAT DOWN FIRST OFF THIS HAPPENED A WHILE AGO,RIHANNA DIDNT HAVT TO DO THE ABC OR 20/20 SHOW JUST FOR ATTENTION,BOTTOM LINE,MOVE ON I BET THIS WONT BE THE LAST TIME WE HERE ABOUT HER INVOLED IN SOME ABUSIVE MESS,ITS AWFULL FUNNY PERFECT TIMMING WHEN THEY BOTH GOT ALBUMS COMMING OUT SHE COULD HAVE CRIED WOLF OVER AYEAR AGO ABOUT THIS SO KEM I DONT BELIVE HER NO MAN SHOULD HIT A WOMEN BUT SHE CRYING WOLF NOW FOR TO LONG,HOW LONG DO WE GOT TO KEEP HEARING ABOUT THIS EVERYTIME SHE HAS A ALBUM DROP,MY ADVICE NEXT TIME GET YOUR UMBRELA OUT TO BLOCK THE HITS HIPOCRET

HOW U DOIN

PEOPLE ARE DAMN CRAZY …I DONT GIVE A DAMN IF SHE HIT HIM FIRST HE HAD NO RITE TO DUE WHAT HE DID…HOW WOULD MOST OF YOU PEOPLE FEEL IF THAT WAS YOUR MOTHER …SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT…I WILL SUPPORT BOTH OF THEM …WE ARE ALL HUMANS AND IF GOD CAN FORGIVE SO CAN WE AS PEOPLE BEST OF LUCK FOR RIRI AND CHIS …GOD BLESS

I have some real concerns for this young lady’s health and emotional stability.

MARCUS WHAT ARE U TALKIN BOUT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME RIRI IS TALKIN ABOUT THIS ….THIS IS THE RITE TIME TO TALK ABOUT IT DUH SHE HAS AND ALBUM COMMING OUT

Dara

Sounds like your husband went to The Phil Hartman School of Passive Resistance. Btw, if you didn’t know, ol’ Phil turned his back on his abusive wife and was rewarded with a couple of bullets in his head. Poor bastard woke up in Hell and didn’t know how he wound up there…So much for your husband’s “NEVER STRIKE A WOMAN” theory.

Black people are their own worst enemy. As a black woman, I am utterly ashamed that 99% of all the negativity against Rihanna has come from black people, on black websites. It’s disgusting. We will never progress as a people as long as we continue to accept such low standards in life. As especially as women.

I was proud of Rihanna last night. To hell with the naysayers. She said her piece and she was honest and forthright and completely genuine. Which is why that bully Brown now wants her to keep her mouth shut. But she didn’t and I’m glad. She’s emerged from all that with so much class and she definitely has my respect. It cannot be easy to stand strong when you’ve been beaten, humiliated for all the world to see. If all these women who defend violent bully Chris Brown had even an ounce of her maturity and hard won wisdom, the world for black women would be a better place.

I’m hoping this “interview” will really be the last of the Chris/Rihanna fiasco.

Now, they can both concentrate on their careers. (Or lack thereof)

“If she was genuinely abused and she is in the position to move on, why still leave avenues opened for him to return?”

Hey, Diva, a number of women return to their abusers repeatedly — I believe it’s related to symptoms associated with what has been termed “battered women’s syndrome.” Many women blame themselves for the attacks.

“Question–Do you consider this a classic case of domestic violence?”

I don’t think there is such a thing as a “classic case of domestic violence.” Abuse is abuse. If a man hits you once, it’s abuse — it doesn’t take several times or more severe injuries to determine that it is an unhealthy, destructive relationship.

I’m still disturbed that some people seem to think that women cannot be abused unless they’re somehow the aggressor/provocateur. There are so many disturbing implications in that type of rationale.

4 REAL YOUR TELLING A BUNCH OF LIES,SHE JUST TAPE THE SHOW,HO CARES HOW MANY ALBUMS SHE SOLD EVERY ARTIST SELLS,MILLIONS OF ALBUMS AT FIRST,BUT AFTER THE SECOND AND THIRD ALBUM PEOPLE TEND TO FORGET ABOUT THE ARTIST SO THEY HAVT TO CREAT A BUZZ,STAY DOING STUPID STUFF IN FRONT OF TMZ,AND INYBODY ELSE THAT WONT TO SEE THEM,SHE COULD HAVE BEEN MOVED ON ITS BEEN A YEAR,WHY IS SHE STILL TALKING ABOUT THIS, I DONT SEE HER GOING TO NO METTINGS TRYING TO GET WOMEN ACROSS AMERICA,THATS BECAUSE SHE FAKE AS THEY COME,15 MILLION I DONT NO HO IS BUYING HER CD ALSO YOU MUST BE TALKING WORLD WIDE NOT JUST AMERICA,NO BODY I NO OWNS HER CD,HIPOCRET YOU NO ITS ABOUT PROMO,JUST LIKE CANDY FROM HOUSE WIVES TALKING ABOUT AJAYS DEATH CAUSE SHE GOT A ALBUM COMMING OUT I DONT BELIVE THE HYPE BOTTOM LINE HIPOCRET

ZOONI YOUR ARE SO RITE….IT IS REALLY SAD JUST AWFUL

Marquis–

BE-HAVE!!!!!

I gave you some props in the “Sextra” thread.

Now Be-damn-have!!

IT HAS NOT BEEN A YEAR…IT HAPPEN IN FEB AND IT NOV …GET IT TOGETHER BOO .. DONT WANT TO READ U THIS AFTERNOON

Sydney–

I totally understand your point. However, the purpose of me posing the question was to allow it to be viewed from both perspectives meaning–a man being abused as well as a woman.

In this case, I think there was some emotional abuse on her part which may have led to the physical abuse on his part.

Diva

Damn, what I say? I’m just tryin’ to give Dara a different perspective on things. Every (alleged) instance of abuse ain’t so BLACK n’ WHITE.

Marcus WHEN BEYONCE GET BEAT! I LIKE HOW EVERYBODY KNOWS EVERYTHING GOING ON AND THE PAPS FOLLOW PEOPLE EVERYWHERE! PEOPLE NEED TO GET ON THE PAPS BECAUSE THOSE PICS WOULDN’T HAVE GOTTEN RELEASED WE WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IF THE PAPS WEREN’T THERE TAKING PICS! THAT’S WHAT RIRI SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED…THAt’S WHY I KNOW THIS INTERVIEW WAS STAGE FOR CD WHAT ABOUT THEM? CHRIS’S CAREER Is in the DIRT! BUT WHAT ABOUT THE PAPS?

i feel sorry for all that are judgingthis situation as hate for either one of them…God forgives rather or not if u forgive. I will not support Rhi on her demonic music and will continue to support my boy Chris and pray that they BOTH have the support they need to get through this…Its some men that dont even feel sorry for what they do and have never apologized…I still have not got an apology when this happen to me and honestly I started the whole situation that caused his anger the overcome his actions of physically abusing me…Yes I did report him and no I NEVER told what I did and neither did he. Although he never maned up an apologized I forgave him because I let GOD take over and do his job.

THIS IS ALL BOUT PUBLICITY JUST LIKE KANDI FROM HOUSE WIFES USING AJAY DEAT CAUSE SHE GOT AN ALBUM COMMING OUT THIS IS A SICK WORLD PEOPLE SELL THE SOUL FOR FAME,THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THE ABUSE,THEY WANT THE ATTENTION,ITS FUNNY HOW RIHANNA WAS OUT IN ABOUT WEARING SEE THROUGH DRESSES,PANTS ALL UP HER BUT,ALWAYS OUT PARTYING EVERY NIGHT NOW SHE ONCE TO COME FORTH I DONT BELIVE IT AND IAM WILLING TO DIE FOR IT CAUSE I NO THESE HOLLYWOOD FOOLS BE LIEIN TO THE PUBLIC JUST FOR PUBLICITY BOTTOM LINE

I’m glad Rihanna has been brave enough to speak out. Too many women stay silent and take the blame for the violence while ignorant f***s make excuses for the men.
Dumb hoodrats talking about they hit their man and their man fights them back and it’s all good, God help your daughters if they should ever come to you saying their man has hit them. What would you say? Would you ask her if she provoked it? Tell her she deserved it?
Some people on here make me sick.

LEAVE GOD OUT OF THIS TO,WHEN YOU REACH A CEARTIN AGE YOU NO BETTER,AND SHE OLDER THAN CHRIS SHE KNEW THE DIFFERENCE THIS GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH GOD,I HATE WHEN PEOPLE GO THERE HIPOCRET

I heard that Oprah actually did a good show several months ago with men who had abused the women in their lives, and I believe some of them candidly address their lack of self-control and an inability to harness their anger. They erupted in fits of rage and became violent — with no provocation. I didn’t see the show, but I was told it was enlighening, and the men willingly recognized their problems and their effects on people in their lives.

@Diva

“In this case, I think there was some emotional abuse on her part which may have led to the physical abuse on his part.”

I think a more likely reason for his violent actions — his “blacking out” — comes from the abuse he witnessed as a child. Studies show that individuals who grow up in abusive households are more likely to become abusive adults. It is extremely detrimental to a child’s well-being to witness the physical and/or emotional abuse of a parent, and/or to be abused themselves.

well seems like black women missed the memo on domesic abuse, especially poor black women. hopefully with rihanna speaking out our women will learn that they don’t deserve to be beat.

i think a lot of these black girls defending chris, will subconsciously learn from this incident that love is not supposed to hurt, even if they don’t realise that that is what they are learning.

this is the first time that mordern domestic abuse has a blck female victim that black women can identify with. so as much as the comments from these young black women are painful, i see that many of them have been abused, and are still in a lot of denial and self hate. but when they go to bed tonight, after seeing this, i am sure they will wake up feeling tht they are worth more than they’ve been accepting.

*erupted into fits*

@ZOONI

Well said!!

I do think we need to do shows on domestic violence with a focus only on black females.

many of them have certainly missed the memo, and hate themselves soooooo much!

I love RIHANNA! She did a GREAT JOB.. Answered all the questions. Not like Chris

i agree 100….she actually sound intelligent…he sounded so dumb on larry king

Hannibal what is your occupation ? is it being a moron or something ?

Like Rihanna said Chris obviously blacked out. He was caught lying and felt the need to be in control of the situation and he lost control of his common sense. He needs help because it will happen again and he will eventually be in jail. She says that she never hit him first and we have to go on that unless he states otherwise.

Black people always hating on other black people, how typical. how comes rihanna gets more support from a white audience then blacks? Black people get it together seriously, the only race of people with no unity. smfh!!!

These websites dedicated to black entertainment are the ONLY ones where 50% are blaming the victim. Take a minute and think about that.

I think she did in fact hit him “even if I did” SMH. And I believe that she knew it and felt guilty about him getting a bad wrap. Went back to him. Then was told to leave by her handlers. Then left. She did the right thing and didn’t speak about it/lie. Now because she wants to sell albums she’s reconstructed the truth and ALL OF THE SUDDEN wants to talk about it so she can help kids!?!? I mean use your brain people. This girl is a mess.

There are a couple things I’d like to address…

(1) For the people who think her timing is suspect… up until now, she’s been able to avoid talking to the press. She knows full-well that if she didn’t address it soon, it would have been the first (and maybe only) question coming out of interviewer’s mouths. No doubt she’s about to go into heavy promotion for her new CD and I’m sure she’s looking to just move on from it and promote her work. This interview gave her an opportunity to answer everyone’s questions in one sitting. Now, maybe she can move forward in terms of her image and be done with it. Good for her.

(2) I have to take the majority of these comments with a grain of salt. For so many people to imply that she somehow provoked the incident and deserved the horrible beating she endured is sickening. I just can’t believe people are being serious when they say things like that (or maybe I just don’t want to believe it). I believe that she did not hit him. Whether she grabbed his phone and tossed it out the window, cussed him the hell out or whatever when she saw the ex-girlfriend’s text come up… well, wouldn’t you have done the same thing? That in NO WAY should have provoked such a physical attack. If she had hit him, a real man would have held her down and maybe used some force to stop her from doing it. A man doesn’t beat a woman. But he didn’t have ONE mark on his body. She had bruises, blood and bite marks. Hmmm. For those are you who are being serious and saying she provoked and deserved this, I feel sorry for you. Maybe we haven’t been taught enough by our families and society that this is not acceptable behavior. Maybe this will be a wake up call and somehow open up more discussions for young men and women to ensure they know better.

Miles

A real man would defend himself if attacked…Especially while simultaneously driving.

I can hardly wait for her to milk this whole victim thing with a hip hop version of I AM WOMAN or I’LL SURVIVE.

Marquis de Sade

Miles

A real man would defend himself if attacked…Especially while simultaneously driving.
*******************************************

That’s not what happened? You are making up a scenario in your mind to justify his actions.

lol black people are the only ones insulting rihanna, saying ” she deserves to get bitten,punched, slammed, etc”. While whites support rihanna. Black people break out of the ignorant mentality please, this is why we are a weak race. no union what so ever.

Marquis de Sade

A REAL man wouldn’t have LIED about the situation in the first place and definitely would not have hit a woman(like Miles said).

i’m proud of her speaking up and talking about it. Chris didn’t just tap her he messed her up big time and yes the scares go away but inside she was slowly dying and what si sad is that many of still given a get me out. Yes be sorry but have some respect for her wishes to be left alone to use the net to get to her is just not to be man enough to accept that she just don’t want u chris

Ive never been in a domestic violence relationship so I dont know what RiRi endured with her relationship with Chris. But I do know that if a dude hit me I wouldnt stay with him. It irritates me that she’s saying she’s a victim when she willingly went back to him after he hit her. Then after the incident she was out clubbin and going to parties as if nothing ever happened. If it was so traumatizing then she shouldve been in therapy or counseling instead of working on an album I smell a publicity stunt. I hope Chris doesnt hit anybody else and gets the therapy/counseling he needs. Wesley Snipes beat the hell outta Halle and he still had a career

Mrs. Rance

His actions was justified. She’s your atypical garden variety black female with the usual propensity to get out of line, thus resulting in her being disciplined. Chris Brown should be applauded for his actions. His timely intervention saved us (nay) humanity from this vile creature going through life believing she can act up with little to no reprisals for her hoodrat ways.

I made mistakes when i was a kid too but I never hit a girl.

O now rihianna album is hood yall…now she hood. gulp. POP to hood. hmmm. Black people let the white community have her dark wicked ass.

“white male

I made mistakes when i was a kid too but I never hit a girl.”

Yeah, y’all’re smarter. Y’all tend to slash their throats, dis-member the body and dump the parts in various arbitrary spots to throw off the C.S.I.

I wish Chris Brown would have pulled his car over and put her out and drove off. When these type of situations happen, even the BEST of people can respond in a manner they truly regret LATER. I STILL think they were BOTH wrong.

Nope never slashed a throat marquis

Christopher’s career is over. My white family likes black people but not to a point to support an abuser. So the millions of young white girls in the USA and Europe won’t be buying or listening to Chris Brown. So you young black girls in the USA who like being smacked around by men will remain his biggest fans

White Man

How does your family and you feel about Jackson Browne, Tommy Lee and all the rest of white female abusers? Btw, that was a rhetorical question.

“She’s your atypical garden variety black female with the usual propensity to get out of line, thus resulting in her being disciplined.”

Maybe he would be better matched with the golf club-wielding woman in the other thread. . .

Any woman that defends a man for beating another woman has low self esteem.

Marquis de Sade,

I am white and I am against domestic violence period. I think what “White Male” wants to say that just because Chris is black you shouldn’t support him. He is also a person who did something really bad (and doesn’t seem to understand the gravity of it either). Chill out with the race thing.

Trina, I agree with you 100%, these are children, puppy love, I can’t believe how the media and some of these old folks are carrying this, Rihanna said she loves him and wants him to move on and be successful, if she forgives him why can’t you, I think she was push to do this interview, probably by Jayz and some of these white racist people, but they have to forgive, also any order to be forgiven for their many mistakes in Life, I think Chris is going to be ok Jesus got his back, he did ask for forgiveness. Thats right Chris leave the rest to Jesus. Chis you might want to switch, start working for Jesus, you can’t go wrong, This music industry going down in history.

That girl is a big liar! She attacked him while he was driving and he slapped the dog mess outta her. He did go too hard on her but she provoked the attack and got what she had coming to her. I bet that she will think twice before EVER doing something like that again.

I wish CB the best.

Chris Brown has a number of dysfunctional followers on here who need to put their money where their mouths are. They can help a brother out by buying his album and not stealing it from illegal downloads and copying. Otherwise, they are just hypocrites. Most likely those kind of people who think wrong is right will not buy his record but have the nerve to complain. If y’all love him go to his concerts, buy his music and gear. However, since you are considered a minority or a small amount of those who with low standards and values, Chris most likely can’t count on y’all to sustain his lifestyle. So let the majority speak loud & clearly: You have a 2nd chance Chris, but it will never be as good as the 1st. Stop hiding behind a pastor & get some real help & counseling and get on with life. You still have millions to live off of comfortably, if you’re wise. No one is stopping you from singing. We will never see you the same and just don’t care for your music. There will be other Chris Browns imitating Michael Jackson so I’m not worry. I say newcomers now deserve a chance.

I will not be buying any Rhianna cd’s….EVER!!!

that’s why all that “ghetto” ish is WAY PAST its shelf life, all the “swag” s–t that was never about anything but NONSENSE to begin with.

you cannot aspire to cross-over appeal, aspire to be part of the mainstream, yet think you can resort to “ghetto” or “redneck” behaviour when you wish to….

i hope that LOTS of young black males (males of all races really) learn this lesson — date CLASSY women who DEMAND that YOU be a classy man — because you will PAY for it in the long run.

BE a gentleman, don’t just ACT LIKE ONE — and date, woo, wife-up ONLY first class women who can APPRECIATE a gentleman.

no matter what your economic status, go for the classiest woman who will have you ….. and try to deserve her.

man its messed up how when chris try to get back on his feet and try to better himself she wanna come out with how petty its like if u was gonna say something u shudda been said i glad she came forth and we know chris did wrong but this interveiw was foul and u know it

CHRIS ALL THE YOUNG HATERS OF TODAY WILL BE OLD HATERS TOMORROW!!! YOU ARE YOUNG SO YOU HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO TAKE NEGATIVITY AND TURN IT INTO POSITIVITY. IF YOU FALL DOWN GET THE HELL BACK UP AGAIN AND MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE, YOU ARE A TALENTED YOUNG MAN, AND I WISH MUCH SUCCESS TO YOU!!!1

Stay Strong RiRi, There is a better man out there for you.. believe that

bigdog

rihanna understands that this is a business. she’ll milk this moment for exposure and dollars as long as the public supports it.

======
Im sure you think its ok for a man to beat the crap out of woman, if she speaks her mind

Slide Like A Fresh Pair of Gators

That big a$$ forehead of hers hasn’t been looking soo big as of late…

Anyways, I wonder how Christopher Maurice Brown will respond to this, that’ll be interesting because you can only do some many interviews wearing a bow tie and not saying nothing about what happened that night, whereas Rihanna just told her side of the story…

========
Well he pleaded guilty, he did speak.

MissVirtue

Im SOOOOOO tired of this mess. Rhianna needs to go sit down somewhere. If youre going to tell THE story then tell 100% of the story. If you hit him also be woman enough to say it. Playing the damn victim is a lie that educated people can see through. Dont go raising your hands to anyone be it man or woman and expect to be a victim in anyone’s eyes. You my dear are SHADY. Chris Brown might have lost the quick to judge ignorant fans but darling YOU’VE lost the educated ones. GOOD DAY
======
You need to grow up, and do some research, Most victims, of domistic violence will not hit the man back for fear of getting a worse beat down, They dont fight back, when women are abused, get out and some have to go in to shelters, they are taught HOW to fight back.. Because for the most part they are just taking a beating until the abuser gets tired of beating their azz.. you get educated. smh

Wake up people! Just because ABC-20/20 just released the interview doesn’t mean that Rihanna suddenly made the Interview in time for album. We all know that she didn’t need an interview to add to her status of most #1 hits for female this decade with 15 million albums sold in the few years that she’s been on the scene. I believe that ABC contemplated releasing the much coveted Interview to Coincide with the release of Rihanna’s album for their own ratings. Ever considered that? hmmmm. Rihanna doesn’t have the power to release an ABC interview, whenever they decide to show it is up to them. Chris Brown was such a coward that he needed his momma and lawyer by his side to pull off an interview. What did he have to hide? “The Truth!” He has been on more interviews and radio shows than I can count. Rihanna goes on one show and tells her experience surrounding that one incidence and it is so powerful (because truth is a powerful thing) that Chris Brown and his folks are probably running for cover. This is the reason goons in the hood try to bully and shut people up because the are cowards who are afraid of their one powerful enemy: Truth!

Y yall rihanna hatas keep hatin on her!!Yall so ignorant she has done nothin 2 yall..Yall jus mad she didnt take it easy on dat low down, good 4 nothin, expired little boy…well she didnt so get ova it..im glad she went in 4 da kill on dat low life..He shouldve known he hit the wrong 1..

Will the next talented Chris Brown, please step forward. Qualifications require that you are black, young, cute, with the talents of Michael Jackson. Oh, and a clean record. You see there are many Chris Browns in America that deserves a chance. However, there aren’t many Barbados beauties with talent, having a distinct voice and unique style like Rihanna. Chris Brown needs Rihanna but Rihanna knows that she will 100 times better without Chris Brown. Hey Chris, have you heard some of the females on here…they’re standards and requirements are low: You have plenty of options, but it will be difficult for you to land someone of Rihanna’s magnitude again. However, her options of landing a powerful and equally talented man without baggage is immeasurable. There is a reason why AIDs is so prevalent among black women and men in our community: Low standards & values and willing to make excuses and put up with anything that mistreat them. Geez! Get a Clue people.

She has a right to talk about this, it happened to her. Am I buying that she did this just for the young girls out there and NOT for publicity with a new single and a new album in three week? NO. I ain’t no fool either.

Those girls would have loved to hear from her in March, April, May, June, July, August, September or October. If you want to help people why put it off for months? The whole legal side was over in August…so August, September and October roll on by until there’s something to promote. fake.

but yet she could be responsible for telling them in a song she gonna fight a man tonight!

TruthBTold, you are seriously stupid if you think any news organization is going to sit on an exclusive interview for months and let sweeps weeks go by without airing it. They didn’t have this for October sweeps.

Can Rihanna control when an interview is aired? Sure, by not doing the interview until she wants it to air. Just 3 weeks before her album dropped. Duh.

It’s also not coincidence that she did an interview with People magazine this week too. Yeah, but that wasn’t coordinated either, right?

You want to be cynical about some things but blind to others in this.

Lovely

I do not know what it is, but there is something fishy about her. She seems to be rather fake! They talk about her as if she cured Cancer. She is a singer, someone who does things and has a career that BENEFITS herself, not anyone else. I mean this alien is so full of herself!

======
Most people benefit from their career, What in the world are you talking about,, That’s why people have careers,, to benefit from them,,, smh

wow these comments really showed me the level of ignorance amongst black women in America…

GO RHI RHI…ur interview really taught me alot:)

i’m proud of u!!!!!!

@moreaces

Ahhhh…well…if u don’t benefit from your career, perhaps you need to ah….get a new one??

LOL I love how you capitalise “BENEFIT” like it’s so unheard of to “benefit” from a job.

smdh…u must have noodles for brains.

@ morceas

sorry my first comment to you was meant for the person you were responding to.

shesh! no I have noodles for brains…

lol!

A shove is never OK…

Sydney™

“The fact is the love was real.”

How is an abusive relationship “love?”

@Dara

Absolutely beautiful post. It may fall on deaf ears, but your husband said what any truly healthy, considerate man would say. There is absolutey nothing normal nor loving about this situation.

==========
Exactly there is zero normal or healty about this relationship, and to the woman that sad she hit her man and he hit her back, they scrappled,, but did not go to the level Chris did.. Oh well,, just wait because it will eventually, that is dysfunctional at its best.. its sad that she thinks its ok that her and her man scrappeled, at all.. its not cute, is sick and dysfuncttional and sad.

Whatever the case, I’m sure Rihanna has staff members (PR’s, JayZ, and Record Company alike) setting up appointments, advising her what to do and when to do it as they continue to help her guide her career. I think that Rihanna was wise to finally sit down and do a once and for all interview to get this thing out of the way so that she can move forward and focus on her career. And Chris Brown has done how man, so far? Countless! (They’ve both had their says…let’s get on with it, so these people can heal). When all is said and done, either people will or won’t buy their records and concert tickets! Either the will or won’t win Grammy’s. They cannot control other people’s feeling or opinion of them. My opinions were formed way back in February. I know what I saw…and that was enough for me. The rest is just worthless rhetoric to me. Wrong is wrong and I am not one of those pathetic souls who waste time trying to justify and “Right a Wrong.” Chris committed a crime against another human being.

Rhianna was articulate, classy, mature and simply amazing.
I ACTUALLY THINK SHE JUST FOUND HER CALLING. AND SHE will BE A VOICE FOR ALL OF YOU CRAZY YOUNG GIRLS SUPPORTNG CHRIS.
she has clearly used the time for self refletion and counselling. she also did her research on domestic violence. see how she schooled the interviewer on the fact that it takes 8 or 9 times for a battered woman to leave and not 7 times as suggested by diane?
i love her more than ever.
she will school many of you on here whether you are willing to listen or not
it is clear many of you on here are battered women who would do anything to hold on to a man who treats you like cow dung!! i am sure that at some point soon, you will take a cue from rhianna and say F love!!

damn she needs to to trade mark that PHRASE—
F LOVE!!!

LOVE YOU RHI!!

Rot

This chick thinks that everybody is as dumb as she is and really believes her lies. I hope that she gets help from a Psychologist because she’s got some deep rooted issues going on in her head.

Chris Brown will still get some love. All he has to do is set up free shows both outdoors and indoors in the hood. It will be a real esteem and ego booster for him. He needs to give something back (free) to his new biggest supporters: mostly young, black females with issues. No wonder the cops take so long to show up for domestic violence in the hood: why should the cops care when these women don’t even care enough to love themselves more than anyone or anything else. (If they valued themselves, they wouldn’t stay in situations where they are at risk of AIDs or STDs. Like Rihanna say Eff that so-called love because that isn’t love. It is some type of need, lust, or co-dependency. Rihanna will fall in love again but hopefully it will not be dysfunctional as with Chris). Chris needs to consider himself lucky because the average black man would have done some time already. Money talks.

her album will sell untold now

^^^Like i said, issues…lol

@Hannibal

I can’t believe I agree with everything you say this time!

A lot of you guys are there defending chris brown as though he was a 2yr old doing something wrong, even if he was 14yrs old and had hit a girl he would still be dead wrong. The sad part is that whenever a female’s back is against the wall, it is always a female that takes her down. The sad part is not unless all of you females were to end up in rhianna’s situation then you would understand and empathise. Rhianna should have been my little sister chris would have been in the hospital eating through tubes up till now!!! But as Rhianna said I still wish Chris all the best, and wishes that he realises what he did and takes full responsibility. All my island females stand up!!!!!!!

chris and her both are young chris seen his mother beat ri seen her mother beat and as kids this happened so often to their mothers chris thought it was ok to react as he did and ri thought it was ok to accpet it…….i think they both have learned a lesson that they should have already leaerned from seeing this as kids…chris i think has definitly learned something here they both probably did not know how to communicate outside of violence because of their childhoods and it is said but thank God they both are alive and not seriously hurt and can learn and help others through their mistakes.

Hannibal her accent is right there. Hannibal is one of the dumbest idiots ever!!!!

Honestly, i just dont understand why would this man just beat her up like that, unless she was beating him up first. i think she only did this to boost her sells in her upcoming album. beside, chirs brown didn’t even put all there information out there like that. i feel sorry for them both, but rihanna needs to go back to the islands and stay there.

im very sad this happened to her though and that she grew up in a dysfunctional enviroment…that can be tough

but i really wish this girl would take those negatives and turn it into some inspirational lyrics that would teach and move peeps…
music is a powerful tool and shes beeen given the oppotunity many would die for so she should use it wisely and for good

“even if I had hit him first, he had no right to do this to me.” -rihanna

THATS ALL THE FU*KIN PROOF YOU NEED RIGHT THERE PPL,RIGHT OUT OF THE OWN HORSES MOUTH RIHANNA SAID SHE HIT HIM ,BUT I FORGOT SINCE SHES A FEMALE SHE GETS A PASS FOR BEING AN ABUSER WHILE CHRIS IS GETTING ALL THE SLACK FOR HITTING HER BACK , HERE IS A LIL ADVICE RIHANNA DONT GIVE A LICK IF YOU CANT TAKE ONE

AND WHAT SO BAD ABOUT THIS RIHANNA SITTIN BACK LAUGHIN ABOUT ALL THIS READING THE LOVE AND HATE BLOGS,LIKE I SAID ITS ALL ABOUT FREE PROMOTION FOR HER NEW ALBUM ABOUT TO DROP,THE WAIT IT OVER,SHE COULD HAVE BEEN SAID SOMETHIN LONG TIME AGO,HIPOCRET

when will all this be over???

AND WHAT SO BAD THE HOLE TIME SHE WAS RUNNING AROUND HOLLYWIRED WITH HER CLOTHS ALL HANGIN OF WITH TMZ,AND EVERY OTHER PAP OUT THERE GIVEN HER THE ATTETION,SHE WAS LOOKING FOR,ALL THAT JUST TO SELL AN ALBUM,I DONT BELIVE HER

Now can we all Move on!!! Dayum!!

IAM GETTING TIRED OF THESE SO CALLED ARTIST LETTING THESE SCANDELS SELL RECORDS FOR THEM KNOWING THEY DONT HAVE ANY TALENT,FROMTHE GET GO,PERFECT TIMEING,WHEN SHE HAS AN ALBUM COMMING OUT,WHEN SHE DIDNT AHVE AN ALBUM WE HEARD NOTHING FROM HER,ONLY BUT SEEING HER BUT NEAKED UP IN HOLLWIRED RUNNING AROUND FOR ATTENTION,I DONT BELIVE HER NOWBODY SHOULD AT THIS POINT

SHEER F*CKERY! I HEARD A WHOLE LOT OF LIES AND CONTRADICTORY STATEMENTS. I BY NO MEANS CONDONE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. BUT AS A WOMAN, RIHANNA SHOULD HAVE OWNED UP AND ADMITTED HER PART. TO SIT THERE AND LIE, DISGUSTS THE HELL OUT OF ME. AND I SINCERELY HOPE FOR THE MOST PART THAT SHE HAS TAKEN THIS EXPERIENCE AND LEARNED FROM IT..B/C IT SEEMS LIKE SHE’S PROFITING FROM IT.

Did anyone notice her how face didn’t move like, at all, during the interview?

@ nova lol haha

i cant say she hit him cuz i was not there if she did he needs to say something ….Chris did a whole interview 4 nothing

Now I’ve never seen him just flat out strike Bee, but too many times have I seem him shove and push her. At first I thought that it was just a little horse play thing between the two – but once I saw how embarrassed Bee was to be man-handled in the front of me in St. Tropez – I realized that it was no joke.

He treats Beyonce like she’s an object and not a person. The [EXPLETIVE] should be happy that a beautiful woman finally wants and loves his ugly [EXPLETIVE] for more than just what’s in his pockets.

this is just terrible

Wonder full interview Chris Brown ain nothing but a punk!! I commend her for leaving him and finally speaking out against this terrible situation. I hope Chris Brown never ever comes back on top!!!!!! He can rot in hell!

why can’t we just move on?

Chris brown made a mistake a awful one but he should not have to deal with this the rest of his life get over it it’s done life goes on

Rihanna, domesticaly abused and then re-victimized especially by urban/African American culture of silence? http://bit.ly/4l99Ii

I’m sick of the whole thing. This is over she need to take her azz and learn to sing. She is violent also and if she don’t get herself together she will be telling this story again from another man or better yet she will be brought up on charges.

pityful how convient for her to open up about what happened when chris is headed on tour. no one deserves to have their lights punched out, but you cant play head games.men hate to feel trick. I believe she was nurseing his ill behavior from jump chris aiant the only one who needs counseling. you can learn alot from a crash course dummy

better to have wrote a self help book and donated proceeds to battered women shelters. then to display everything for the media to profit. was that social responsibilty?
jesus take the wheel becuz vengance belongs to our father in heaven

One luv..

WAT…f*** this sh*t !! Girl stay true to your feelins and quit the media romancing thingy cos we know u black a** is still in love with breezy..you saying all these crap just to promote your “about to be released” album and try ruining chris’ career..listen damn straight “Riri” IT AINT GON WORK cos the world still gon love support and buy Chris Brown CD’s ..Chris is too much of a TALENT to be screwd by your blatant media romancing barbedian a** !!

CB is a little creep and weasel. I’m deleting all remnants of him (including songs he features in) off my iTouch even if the songs are melodious.

Regardless of whether parts of Riri’s interview seemed scripted or calculated, it can’t be easy to share your story with the world, and re-live those painful and unpleasant memories.

Stay strong Riri

Of course it is all planned to coincide with album launches. It’s a situation they both went through and it’s something a lot of people want to hear about. So common sense dictates that you would hold off on interviews if you have a project you need to push later on. It doesn’t make it right, it doesn’t make it wrong either. Whatever their choices it’s they that have to live with them.

Brown isn’t the smartest card in the deck, but so long as he learns a lesson, that’s all that can be asked.

You guys are still arguing about rihanna and Chris Brown lol. White people don’t give a zhit about rihanna, the polls prove it.

There is a black woman who is about to do 15 years in prison for cutting line in Wal-Mart, but NOoooooooo, we spend time talking about an age old problem that is never going to stop unless an individual wants it too. So you guys know rihanna and Chris Brown are you guys are some sick fans either hating or supporting your idiol? Chris Brown will do fine, rihanna 15 is over. She is now the poster child for date abuse.

@karmel2u

The white media is exposing them both and using them.
The both need to shut up and move on!! I think it’s killing both their careers.
______________________________________________________________________
This is a true statement and one of the most reasonable one I read so far. rihanna career is just in much jeopardy has Chris Brown. If rihanna CD is no good it want sell and JZ will have to buy up her CD’s in order to keep her on the label. Chris Brown has touring power. Chris Brown is getting his second chance, don’t mess it up Chris. It matter not who hates who for what ever reason people are going to support their favorite artist. rihanna still love Chris Brown but she can not have him and that is hurting her more than anything. It’s apparent some of us have no life on here and some of us just want to put in our two cents has if it’s needed lol.

Chris should have JUST spank that booty and gave her some head in the car and this would have been the end of it.

And I do not buy in to that white folk is the only one supporting rihanna, just wait when those white people expose her demonology side, devil worshiping occult it all here on the net. White folds will destroy both of these kids. rihanna and Chris Brown needs to STFU and never address this subject again. Get on with your life and career, even Jesus gotten save Israel so you think rihanna is going to save little white girls from getting beat up by their boyfriends, NO!

I like Hannibal funny has heck that one is!

To early for me I had to rewrite that post lol, it makes since now ROFL!

The both have lost 50% of their fan base.

I COULD GIVE YOU ALL MY OPINION, BUT IN THE END THAT’S ALL IT IS AN OPINION.

GOD IS GOING TO JUDGE ME SO HOW CAN I JUDGE ANYONE ELSE?

JUDGE NOT SO THAT YOU MAY NOT BE JUDGE!

IT DOES NOT MATTER THAT YOU BELIEVE ONE PARTY OR THE OTHER IS RIGHT OR WRONG…THE FACT IS YOU ARE JUDGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
STOP THINK. DO NOT JUDGE. GOD HAS THAT AUTHORITY!!

She did pretty good considering being on the hotspot. Girl is tuff on the exterior boi, even those dim lights and seemingly empathetic interviewer didnt make her break down. She’s hiding alot of pain that has to do with her child hood and i’m sure all this is making it creep up on her. If it wasnt for the ones who called the cops on that fateful night, she wouldve went on with life covering up the abuse until it got worse, like her mom did. And he is not admitting that he was abused, he only says he witnessed it. Thats why his mom was beside him crying on Larry King, its the guilt she’s hiding. I dont believe its for ratings or sales. Abuse is real no matter how much fame or money you got and what nationality you are.

people lets move on.who cares. the world has gone to hell in a handbasket. rihanna was in love and that what happen.love dont love nobody.

who cares

no one is advocating violence. people are just tired or riri acting like pure pitiful pearl as if she is totally innocent in the situation.

no one is advocating violence. people are just tired or riri acting like pure pitiful pearl as if she is totally innocent in the situation. Also, CB was 19…he admitted he was wrong and is seeking counseling. How about we talk about how females who are violent in a relationship could trigger a young man who experienced domestic violence in his home as a child to be violent….not saying he is right but goodness he is a CHILD!

Ri-Ri is abusing me with her singing! Make her stop… somebody HELP!

MTV showed the old interview of hris Brown where he talked about how his mom used to take beatings and he promised he would never treat a woman that way. From what we know, Chris Brown has never laid a hand on another female- JUST Rihanna….. Anybody ever wonder why that is….? Could it be because the abuse wasn’t just one sided? Could it be that Rihanna was equally abusive of Chris Brown….? Hmmm…..

This woman is still in love with this boy. She has so far yet to go.

He is getting help with his pain I hope she is getting help with hers.

I wish them both good luck.

Honestly I feel like its a hate campaign against Chris Brown and the funny thing is I’m not a fan of Chris Brown or Rihanna. I’ve never bought their music, although I have listended to their music on the radio and I enjoy many of their songs.
But I’ve witnessed my mom being abused where my dad was simply a bully and would beat her because someone paid to much attention to her at a holiday party AND I’ve witnessed my brothers being abused by girls they dated to the point where it brought them to violence. For example, 1 chick broke into my brothers car repeatedly and stole stuff. We knew because she would call him and throw it in his face. One time she broke into his car and not only stole things, she vandalized his car and our moms car. Of course the dummy called my brother to throw it in his face, but my brother had already called the police and was standing right in front of an officer when she made the call. He just handed the phone to the cop and he heard everything. She had to pay for the damages but she was basicaly slapped on the risk by the “justice” system. Now let the situation had been reversed and the system would have THROWN my brother under the jail.
So while everyone is bashing Chris Brown, stop and think that NOT every domesically violent situation is one sided. And from where I’m sitting, Chris and Rihanna situations is FAR from one-sided.

Man, she probably has some good “stuff”

test 4

who cares

oh and by the way….who cares

White and Asia people are not the only one buying her albums. I have two of her albums and know other blacks who have bought the CDs too. Rihanna did not fool the masses. The educated masses with self-esteem and respect did not need Rihianna’s interview to conclude what took place. Just like we knew the coward “Chris Brown” would plead guilty. He didn’t want to be crossed-examined and have the public find out the truth that he actually have put his hand on Rihanna several times (8 or 9) actually. It is so obvious that a lot of black people on here come from broken, dysfunctional homes whereas it okay and normal to accept and make excuses for abusive behaviors. No wonder the courts and cops don’t give a damn and just throw black people in pen. If you don’t love and value yourself, how can you possibly expect other people to. You have to hold yourself with higher standards and accept nothing less. Dysfunctional minds see things through different lenses. There are a lot of light-skinned chicks who’s careers have tanked long ago. Skin color alone will not guarantee success. Rihanna is more than a skin color to most of us. The haters can’t see it though! LMAO (Of course, she will have a great career…she is unique, different, beautiful and talented.) There are many broke-down light-skinned, pretty women with no careers. So that light-skinned crap is just a reflection of your own insecurities. Dark women like Oprah don’t let skin-color stop them from reigning at the top. Free your mind and you too will fly!

Well will this be ova!!!

@Jazzy 1
Stop lying! rihanna is a devil worshiper I have know tolerance for the children of Satan.

I have friends in Asian all they are saying is rihanna should not have gave him herpes and she would not have gotten hit. Asians are still stuck on she gave him herpes!

Funny how know one has talked about the herpes rumors. White folks are not supporting rihanna, they are using her to destroy a black man. white folks could care less abut rihanna they just want to say I have empathy for her she got beat down by her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. ROFL! Now lets talk about who got the talent. No matter what people say they are some who are going to support Chris Brown and people are putting their mouth where their money is at. Chris Brown is doing good thank you very much.

White media does not like rihanna, they just use her to beat down Chris Brown. White media hate both of them, just like they hated Michael Jackson and still hating on Obama. ROFL! I guess you people don’t see that to blind by your own guilt and hatred and bitterness.

People need to realize we are all God’s children, but if you are practicing Satanism you are no longer God’s children but the children of your father satan.

She never hit him??,, I’m glad she told ”her” side of the story but to me it seems a bit suspect.
I know that what she told here where not the only things that happend that night (and you know it!)

I hope she’ll keep her devilworshipping mouth shut now so we can FINALLY (after almost a year…)move the on
and I hope CB has learned his lesson and can get on with his carreer,

Cause theres one thing NON of you team rhirhi’s or team CB’s can deni..:

CB has more talent!

That’s the truth for today!

God bless

All I have to say is nobody in the media knows what really happened that night. Only the two of them and if no souls where in the eyes then they hardly remember themselves. I just wish we can move on….. I have not heard none of riri new songs only the one with Jay which was nice. But the album better be worth it. For the record riri do something constructive with yourself like try education and speech.

All of a sudden since it’s clear that she never hit chris brown people are saying “well neither of them remembers”!

pathetic!!

you people could have witnessed chris brown murder that girl and still support him!!

sickening!!

@Z

rihanna said she still love Chris Brown and wished him the best and she could not say in the future rather they want be together are not.
rihanna still loves Chris Brown so lets move on.

What Chris did was wrong but i hope for Gods sake he get over her and move on cause she is not for him i also wish her luck just not with Chris and I hope his mom talk sense into him

@unlimitiedwhispers

you and I was not in that car and rihanna knows what made him snap like that and it’s none of our business. Get over it stop judging it’s know of her business.

Woulda believed u if werent DROPPIN AN ALBUM…GTFOH WIT DEM MANUFACTURED ANSWERS

why would she come out now after all this time…can you say “CD SALES POINTS”…they are both trifling.

Some people kill me with their comments.

Chris pleaded guilty. Chris is not clamming self defense. He not only hit but bite her. What does it matter if he is black? His race has nothing to do with anything. Black or not what he did to her was illegal and disgusting. Like it or not women do get abused.

[...] Posted on 09. Nov, 2009 by admin in Gossip The Full 20/20 Interview With Rihanna [...]

Personally I think it took alot of strength and courage for Rih to talk about the situation. She needs to stay strong and move on with her life. As for Chris, I don’t hate him. He is young and deserves a second chance. We forgive every other celebrity for sh*t they do, yet we can’t forgive Chris?? Hes donating to charity, doing community service, and he seems to be dedicating more time to this mission than the abused victim Rih Rih.
God gives second chances,why cant we? Everyone has made big DUMB AS$ mistakes, we need to learn from them and grow. Give these kids a chance!

FROM THE INTERVIEWS THAT I HAVE SEEN HE IS NOT SINCERE IN NO WAY!! JUST LIKE SHE SAID IN THE INTERVIEW HE SOUNDED LIKE HE WAS READING FROM A TELEPROMPTER LOL!!! HE DOESN’T CARE,HE IS NOT REMORESFUL AT ALL AND HE WILL NEVER BE ON TOP. IN THE END RHIANNA WILL BE THE ONE LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK!

@ TREATMENT YOU ARE AN IGNORANT FOOL WHAT THE HELL DOES HER SPEECH HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING TYPICAL IGNORANT FOOL!! SHE IS FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY IDIOT!!

@ Ambivalent

NUFF SAID!!! I AGREE!!

its funny how she didnt wanna talk about what happened until her album is about to drop.

and she didnt really tell what happened she never said if she got loud or just bumped his arm she had to have done something but she doesnt wanna admit it she will save that for the next album

rihanna is basting in her last 15 minutes of fame and I don’t know why people even care, do they know her personally? NO. I could care less about rihanna and her getting smack down by Chris brown, I’m still going to his concert, I would got to hers but I’m not because she is a devil worshiper and I don’t suport devil worshipers.

LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE!… well, regardless of what lil miss heartless says… WE LOVE CHRIS!!! Her failed attempt at vindication is sure to backfire. Since HE has and always has had the talent… i’m sure he’ll still be around and all we’ll have to remember @rihanna by is her ever so saddening TMZ pic. All I have to say about this foolishness is… I will be at the Warner Theater Dec 4th to see Breezy with Red lips and a Red Dress cuz i’m a fan of the music not the drama. So sad to see such a pretty girl be so vindictive and hateful… oh well *kanye shrug*

This interview sparked an increase of calls to the national abuse hotline by 59%. All of you men who are supporting chris and saying bad things about rihanna, maybe your gf has already called on you.

I think she hit him…she just hesitated alot. But I could tell that she was being somewhat honest. I was laughing when she said his apology was scripted and I know she heard “Changed Man” she was probably trying to sing background vocals too in her crib..oh girl please!!! But I hope she gets better and I hope he does too!!

i think rihanna was telling the truth. You don’t necessarily have to hit a man first for him to hit you. WHy are people saying its a hate campaign against chris, when rihanna did not even say anything bad about Chris. All she did was tell what happened, in the car, something Chris didn’t do, because he is still trying to figure out how it happened. Why hate rihanna because Chris lost control of his emotions. She is not wishing bad on him, and neither is he hating on her, so why are his fans trying to justify his actions and hate the women he loves and is sorry for hitting. I actually liked them both together and wish it didn’t happen. However it did, so the best thing to do, is to admit that Chris needs help, and the best way is to support him getting that. If you all can forgive Chris, you should also be able to forgive rihanna.

That lying rat……..She provoked the whole thing……you should never hit a man and not expect him to hit u back.

A text message that she saw and she would not let it go!!! Pretty clear what happened. Stay up!~

1. REHEARSED/ COACHED ON LIES
2. FAKE
3. PUBLICITY STUNT.
4. HALF TRUTH ARE COVER UPS PERIOD. WHEN I HEAR THE WHOLE STORY THEN IT WILL MAKE SENSE.

5. FANS ARE TIRED OF THE MEDIA PLAYING US FOR DUMB AZZEZ. GET ONA WHITE SHOW “IT GOT TO BE THE TRUTH”. NOTONE PERSON WHO HAD AN INTERVIEW WITH DIANE SAWYER TOLD THE TRUTH. NOT WHITNEY NOR THIS ONE!!!!!!! JUST A STUNT!!! RI-RI GOING AFTER WHITE FOLLSK SYMPATHY THEN THEIR MONEY!!!

WHOLE INETEVIEW STAGED

.. WHY WAS IT NEVER ASKED HAD SHE EVER HIT HIM?

FAKE INTERVIEW OR DIANE NEEDS TO BE FIRED. IF THAT IS THE ONE THING EVERYONE IS SAYING WHY NOT ASK.

SCRIPTED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for speaking out. Hopefully both of you will learn from this in profound ways. Peace be with you both.

she’s so FRAUD

CB is a little creep and weasel. I’m deleting all remnants of him (including songs he features in) off my iTouch even if the songs are melodious.
_____________________________

@ whakarongoYo ok your not hurting him by doing that, the money you paid 4 the songs already went to his pocket and has been spent by now ,so whats the point? lol

SHE’S A LIAR!!!!! KEEP YOUR HEAD UP CHRIS!

i think rihanna has done enough damage on Chris’ carrier,but because the boy has got talent i know he will surely overcome this and finally we can move on.team CB

Rihanna sounded extremely fake in this story, she is such a lire seeking pity.
Not saying what he did was right, however I don’t think she is totally innocent as it takes two to tackle.

I must agree with Steph,lets move onn already and stop living on Chris case. Rihanna needs to move on as well, after the big excitement we all have to move on. We are still here for u Chris, u still have millions of fans who love u no matter what,so make albums for us and do those crazy dance that u do cause we love it all.

I do not in any way condone violence but I do feel Rihanna is playing a lot of people! “If ur going to come out with it then COME OUT. Diane also could have brought up her anger issues as well. “I can also say I lost a little bit of respect for Rihanna from this interview because I do not feel she was being truthful.” Chris said that she (Rihanna) beat him with a shoe whilst he drove too so…I don’t think she is truly happy person at all. She doesn’t smile. Those island women are something else, she may have messed around and put the roots on him as well. Bye RihRih get gone…
