After almost two weeks of hiding from the public, Rihanna was spotted in Los Angeles heading to an airport on Thursday - the same day a photo of her with bruises on her face released to the public.
The singer finally released a statement to fans on Friday (her 21st birthday) via her spokesperson:
At the request of the authorities, Rihanna is not commenting about the incident involving Chris Brown. She wants to assure her fans that she remains strong, is doing well, and deeply appreciates the outpouring of support she has received during this difficult time.

The Dream reveals his new collaboration with Kanye West, “Walk On the Moon.” It’s from The Dream’s upcoming sophomore album, Love vs. Money. The Michael Jackson-inspired track, produced by Los DaMystro, is set to be the third single after the Mariah Carey-assisted “My Love.”
“It’s crazy! L.A. Reid says that he thinks that it’s bigger than ‘Umbrella!’,” the in-demand singer-songwriter told Rap-Up.com. “So hopefully it will be ’cause that means I can go buy two more cars.”
I actually love it. Kanye and The Dream really hit the nail on the head. I’m excited to hear this joint album that they’re prepping together. I guess The Dream took Kanye’s advice and decided to up his celebrity status. Love vs. Money hits stores on March 10th.

Ciara takes a stab at “FutureSex/LoveSongs” and “Sexy Ladies” by Justin Timberlake and in turn, features him on the track. I don’t know, when I heard about this collaboration, I was excited but this definitely left me cold. “Never Ever” had really begun to grow on me, especially with the release of the video.
The new track, “Love & Sex & Magic,” is said to be the next single from Ciara’s third studio album, Fantasy Ride, which drops April 7th. It’s also been reported that the two will shoot a music video for the song tomorrow. I’m sure that the clip will be interesting to watch, because of both of their phenomenal dance skills, but I’ll be sure to keep the TV on mute.

The Los Angeles Police Department has launched an internal investigation and filed a personnel complaint after a photo leaked late Thursday of what appears to be a bruised Rihanna following the alleged incident with Chris Brown on Grammy weekend.
“The unauthorized release of a domestic-violence photograph immediately generated an internal investigation,” an LAPD spokesman said in statement about the photo, which appeared on TMZ. “The Los Angeles Police Department Media Relations Section began receiving numerous inquiries about the release of a photograph associated with a domestic violence incident that occurred on February 8, 2009, involving entertainer Chris Brown.
The Los Angeles Police Department takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of victims of domestic violence,” the LAPD asserted in the statement. “A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including termination.”
