Saturday, February 21, 2009

00121.jpg

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.

Call me cold, and I am sorry that she got beaten. But on the real, how does that really affect my life? I still have the same bills to pay and the same personal problems, whether her life is on the up or down. I will worry about my own life. That is my story and I am sticking with it.

She said she is a good girl gone bad. If she is really that bad, she can handle it. With her fake ass, manufactured image. Let’s see how bad you really are. When they were traveling the world and spending their money, that did not affect me. When they are fighting with each other and hurting themselves, that does not affect me either.

As for Chris Brown? That chipmunk has always gotten on my nerves anyhow. So whatever.

Now, back to the drama. Look at the Grammy pictures starting with the red carpet photos. Also look back on a lot of Chris’ pictures. He looks crazy, especially his profile when he’s not smiling. Chris looked like he was on “something” and was plotting against Rihanna. Look closely at the pictures. Something in his eyes were sinister. Meanwhile, Pop Princess Rihanna was all giddy, happy in love with his presence, she was blindsided, because she was trying to make it appear all was lovey-dovey.

She probably wanted to stay together at least through her birthday and then let the shish hit the fan after the fact. Emotionally, they were disconnected on Feb. 8th. and their dirty laundry is now on public display.

But Rihanna will survive. She’s accomplished so much more than the naysayers thought she ever would. She has made history and shamed her peers, so now she has to “remain strong” in mind.

Why do ppl keep saying Rihanna released a statement, when it is still in the third person? Say Rihanna’s PUBLICIST released a statement. Cause that is what it sounds like. I know that even when the cleeb releases s statement in the first person, it is still the publicist’s words. So if they want to say the statement is from Rihanna, they should do us all a favor and at least use the first person to make it credible.

This whole story is just plain crazy. All I’m going to say is no matter how people feel about this entire situation, she didn’t deserve to get the crap beatin out of her. If he’s suppose to be a man, well then a real man would have just walked away from it.

@ 21 how does ANYTHING on CL affect your life. Bills still gotta get paid w/WHATEVA they post..

Not trying to rude, just bein real. Blogs are for entertainment purpose only. And maybe w/Rihanna’s story it will help a girl think twice about staying in a abusive relationship.

But Im praying for Rihanna. I cant wait to hear her side of the story…we’ll…actually both of theirs for real. I wonder what Chris B’s reason going to be for beating her.

We said the same thing. Some fools on here, all up in their stupuid relationship as if when they f*ck you get an orgasm from it. Or when they shop, they buy you something. Or when they pay their bills, they pay yours. Worry about what’s important and the people you know. I can bet you that someone who you are related to is in an abusive relationship. Open your eyes to the people around you, who actually have an effect on your life.

But hell I was like that. But Im GROWN now and I’ve learned. I think it will take experience & maturity and they’ll realize, man I was dumb for trying to be like them!

But with this particular situation, I just think it will shine a SERIOUS and MUCH needed light on Domestic Violence. Some girls dont think it happens to ppl like Rihanna!

What i say

Saturday, February 21, 2009 /

Poor girl. But i believe that rihanna is riding the fence with her own situation. Because if i was really mad about my bf beating me up, i would have said something a week ago. If she really wanted to play the victim she woulda spoke up and not told her family to down play the bruises.. But then she would have to press charges. If she wanted to be neutral she would have put have out a statement saying the “i want my privacy respected at this difficult time”. What im saying is its hard to really judge because i think she is confused.

52.

EBONY

Saturday, February 21, 2009 /

Rihanna dosen`t even mention the leaked photo nor does she threaten to sue TMZ.,that`s because the leaked photo does not violate her privacy. Chris and Rihanna fought in public,not private.If they would have fought in their house and somebody sneaked up and peeked through their window and took a photo,and sold it to TMZ,that`s a violation of privacy. But they fought in public,out in the open for bystanders to see and take photos,and she freely allowed certain people to take photos.Anything that takes place in public becomes part of the public domain.GOD BLESS YOU RIHANNA!and get well soon.

Where are you getting the impression that SHe told her family to donwplay the bruises? Uhm… hello! The family is saying what a family member is gonna say. There was no downplaying here. Seriously, what were they expected to say? Oh Lord, her lip is all busted, she has swellings on her face and scratches on her cheeks. CTFU with the stupidity.

And at this point, Rihana is doing what she is advised to do as such a time, by her record labels, lawyers and gudiance counselers, which is to Keep her mouth shut. You are saying it as if she is quiet by choice. Grow up and read between the lines. Everything you see and hear is not what it seems.

@ number 21

I agree with what you said.
However, I deeply have sympathy for both of them. This case happens everyday you cant imagine but since its Rihanna ppl seem to open their damn eyes like its a new discover! Of course the answer is she is a celeb so all her personal biz are known unfortuantely. I hope they try to beat that disease of domestic violence. I hope ladies will have the right behavior and not hit. I hope men will stay gentle and indulgent enough, smart to just go away to think when problems and talks are become too loud and hot.
Both had difficult childhoods with bad parents’ relationships, Both need therapies and learn from their past experiences and GROW the phuck up.

Glad to see she is doing well. NW TELL US THE TRUTH NOT YOUR SIDE OF THE STORY THE TRUTH.

@ PMS

I hope its only on concretloop Beyoncé blinds you like that and you’re obsessed about her only on blogs because if youre like that on a dailybasis an has constantly to bring her in every post, I swear you need mental help. The best therapy for you, you must see Beyonce herslef and discuss what is actually wrong. Make sure to see her one day, you will feel way better. Cuz Sh!t you’re pathetic!

I am so fucking tired of people talking about the ‘other side of the story’. Or ‘the whole truth’. They got out of the car, and he began to beat her ass. As the police report says. She went to the hospital, and he ran away, and later turned himself in with his lawyer present. Cops took Riri to the hospital in their car. Come one people. Who cares about the real story. He used a disappropriate amount of force.

62.

This is not domestic violence. This was a case of a boy and a girl with no home training that got into a fight and the girl got her ass whooped. There is a difference.

browneyz_philly

Saturday, February 21, 2009 /

@ 46
Apparently there has been an abusive year for them both; both mentally and physically. No man just straight whoops a woman’s ass with no warning. He had to have put his hands on her throughout the year before it lead to this. This time, there is just proof and her bruises are visible for the world to see.
Also, men who abuse women physically are skilled at their “craft.” They know how to manipulate and make their partner feel weak. They also know how to beat on their woman so that the bruises and welts are not visible to the eye! These men know what they are doing.
Now I’m not saying that this is the case with Chris Brown, but you never know.

People are saying that Rihanna provoked Chris and she did something to make him use her face a punching bag. Yes, Rihanna may have pissed Chris off sooo bad, but that gives him no reason to put his hands on her. If she was hitting him (which I don’t stand for either) then he should have restrained her by locking her arms down or just manned up and walk away!

Chris Brown needs to step up to the plate and be a man.He needs to personally apologize to Rihanna,for his cowardly actions,and not just issue a written statement.Then he needs to acknowledge his guilt and stop making excuses!and take his punishment from the legal system like a man!

Brown sista' s opinion

Saturday, February 21, 2009 /

Ignorance… Anyway i’ m so glad she is okay , i know she is a strong woman so i didn’ t have any doubt about her fighting this, don’ t listen to the haters rih they wished your face was fucked up so they could call ugly, you are still the hottest mama after alicia keys bien entendu

as for chris brown He’s probably lost the woman he loves, and he’s lost a huge amount of his fan base. The most sad thing out of this whole ordeal is that he’s turned into the man that he’s hated most of his life…if he was my brother or my son i would get him before the public opinion does,i would beat his *** or ignore him!! today the victim is rihanna , his next victim will not be as helpless as her, what if somebody shoots him one day ? or a woman stab him for beating her? then what? the only person i would be mad at will be myself because i would feel like if i had reacted better than just sticking up for him and making excuses for his behavior than maybe just maybe he would have changed his ways, im not saying lets hang him, i’ m saying he needs to pay, PUBLICLY apologize to rihanna , stay the **** away from her , seek help and find a way to redemption.. it is too easy to put out the human card, celebrities wanna brag about how better they are than us but when something pops out they wanna be just like us ? Please..

I’m still laughing at all the people blaming Rihanna…and the people who said this was not domestic abuse but a mistake or some sh*t like that. Well boys and girls the more you support Chris Brown, the more you support his behavior. I’m tired of people saying “omg I want to know the whole story.” Wake up! you will NEVER hear the whole story. These are celebrities….both of their careers are on the line. Do you think they would get themselves in legal trouble and risk their careers just to please you ignorant stans who are still in DENIAL? That is not going to happen. So far we have the police reports, Chris Brown’s admission of guilt through the statement he released, and the pictures that show how he battered Rihanna. What else do you people need? WHO CARES how it happened? The fact is that it still happened and Chris Brown admitted to it. Stop hating on Rihanna and pray for her because she is the victim of abuse and Chris brown is the abuser. That is 100% factual. Forget the rumors of how it happened for now and realize that no matter how it happened Chris Brown’s actions are not justified.

I know everyone’s entitled to their own opinions but some of you people are just delusional. Regardless of what she did to him, she didn’t deserve to get the crap beat out of her. And for you to laugh and make light of the situation is disgusting.

And for those who say “they aint paying my bills” etc. If you don’t care why are you wasting time on here COMMENTING!!! Get a life!!

Rihanna and Chris I pray that both of you get the help you need to grow from this incident.

They’re young and have a lot of maturing to do. I don’t agree with ANYone putting their hands on anyone POINT BLANK!

Stop spreading ignorance, those who say this is not domestic violence are being irresponsible at the least! Anytime you are in a relationship and you get hit and end up with bruises on your face and needing hospital treatment. IT IS DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. You are sending a message to some reader here possibly that there situation is “not that bad” or “its just a fight”. This ignorance must stop. Just because it’s Rihanna and she is a star it does not mean that you should minimize what happened to her. She was beat up. It may have started as a couples spat, but it ended in battery= DOMESTIC VIOLENCE!!
Anyone out there experiencing being hit, you are not in a fight you are being ABUSED> if it were your mom or sis, you would not make jokes about home training would you? SMDH

THIS IS DEFINITELY NOTHING TO PLAY AROUND WITH. HER FACE LOOKS SAD. I HOPE SHE SEEKS COUNSELING TO HELP HER UNDERSTAND WHAT ISSUES LED HER TO BE ATTRACTED TO SUCH A MONSTER. NONE OF THIS IS HER FAULT BUT COUNSELING CAN HELP HER GET HER LIFE BACK ON TRACK. THIS IS A TRAUMA TO HER EMOTIONALLY AND PHYSICALLY AND CAN GREATLY AFFECT HER SELF-ESTEEM.

PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THAT CHRIS NEEDS HELP. I COULDN’T GIVE TWO ISHES ABOUT THAT NICCRA AT THIS POINT. YES HE NEEDS HELP BUT I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT RIHANNA. THIS WILL NOT BE EASY. SHE IS PROBABLY WORRIED ABOUT PEOPLE BLAMING HER, BUT I HOPE THAT SHE HAS STRONG SUPPORT AROUND HER TO REMIND HER, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS NOT SOMETHING YOU SHOULD EVER PUT UP WITH. I DOUBT THAT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE HIT HER, THESE SITUATIONS TEND TO ESCALATE OVER TIME. WHEN SHE STARTS TO TALK ABOUT IT, DON’T BE SURPRISED TO HEAR THAT THOSE BRUISES ON HER NECK BACK IN DECEMBER AND EVEN BEFORE THEN CAME FROM CHRIS.

GOD BLESS RIH-RIH AND GET WELL SOON.

So when u see the sister up the street who has been smacked down you don’t cringe & talk about the situation i.e she NEEDS to leave ole dude alone & etc. I know that where I come from when women are beaten that is the talk of the circle of ppl who knows the victim & all you hear is, the she needs to get out or leave him alone in the discussion. It’s sad if YOU are one of those ppl who turn deaf ears. I’ve seen young ladies beaten until they were swollen & it is NOT a pretty picture. I know men who were abused too & walked away b/c they knew one wrong doesn’t make it right & being that physically they are stronger than the woman even if she had started the fight, the man knew he could knock her teeth out… so he just left… which he NEEDED to do just like the lady who is abused NEEDS to do… LEAVE the idiots alone. Everytime I see a person beaten just b/c… meaning it was NOT in self defense or the attckers life was not @ stake… it pisses me off.

Like I said I don’t know what went down between them ( Chris & Rhianna) & don’t claim to know, but the beating that she got was TOTALLY uncalled for. And NO it may not be her eyeballs poppin out her head, but dude sure beat her till her nose had started to spread & her lips trippled… that’s MORE than enough for me. And when I seen pictures of Chris’ being released AFTER the altercation all I see is a scratch on his knuckles… boy she really tore him up ** rolls eyes***. He will have his day in court like most ppl do, but the court of public opinion has already spoke( which is important for his career) & it’s NOT looking good for him. I think it has hurt him more than the OTHER celeb loser abusers b/c he is mainly targeted to the young/teens… I know I don’t run out to buy a CB album. Which is why the advertisers & etc acted so quickly on dropping ads & what not. Either way it is what it is. I just hope that they BOTH have learned a lesson, no matter what just walk away, it’s NOT worth it if you are NOT in any serious danger & if you are that much into heated arguments in a relationship, there is NO point in staying in it. And this goes for EVERYONE. And on that note I’ll be SO glad when this ENTIRE thing will be over b/c I am tired of hearing the back & fwds **sighs**.

@ 58

I like what you said and pretty much agree. He should never have hit her and if she hit him or said something to provoke him, he should have walked away. Some females do know how to press buttons though. WE do know this part of the story though, they were in a car in some unknown neighborhood. Sometimes one is not allowed to, in a given situation, walk away.

AND

Girls are not always as weak as you may think. My little sister? becomes she hulk when she gets mad. I have even had trouble restraining her when she got in a fight with my little brother or someone else. (they are 15-16)

Adrenaline can do a lot.

I am NOT saying this is the case with them, but there is always an exception to the rule. We shouldnt judge before we know all details.

I swear, African-Americans are the most ignorant group when it comes to violence. Perhaps it is because we were victims of such awful brutality as a way of life and passed down this acceptance from generation to generation.

Reading comments on blogs since this story broke has been one of the most depressing experiences of my life. I have always known black people, especially black women place very little value on things like health, safety and security. But to see so many young girls with the same issues their mothers clearly had is truly heartbreaking.

As log as black women continue to make excuses, blame victims and sell their womanhood for black male acceptance we will continue to suffer needlessly.

I hope most of you young ladies realize that Chris Brown and most other black men like him will never be coming to your rescue. They are not going to defend you, protect you, marry you, raise your children, etc. They will use you for whatever they can whether it be sex, emotional support, your money, etc and never give anything in return.

It’s sad that Rihanna, who probably was learning this due to all of her exposure to the predatory men of color in the music business, and now sees that the majority of support for her is occurring outside the black community.

And people wonder why Tina Turner turned her back on black folks and never looked back.

Ike Turner is a hero in the black community and folks laugh off his abuse with jokes. The same will happen for Chris Brown. His career is FAR from over in the world of BET and Vibe magazine.

Now please explain to me why she deserved it. Because she had money? BULLSHIT.

That asswhooping was TOTALLY uncalled for, and I would feel the same if it was Jessica down the street or Tanya down the block. It’s so sad stans & groupies are REACHING to justify that crap. “SHE PROVOKED HIM!”…”DON;T JUDGE HIM TILL ALL THE FACTS ARE OUT…BUT IMMA JUDGE RIHANNA AND CALL HER A HERPES INFESTED, SHIT STARTER WHO DESERVED TO GET HER ASS BEAT (but I also have no facts)”

Not every DV case is the result of the aggressor being provoked. I have seen many instances in my own family where the dude went upside their female’s head JUST for disagreeing or for having an opinion.

We love in a world where (not all) men feel they are FAR superior to women. They are stuck in that caveman/neanderthal mindset. Where we are supposed to bow down to them & we BETTER not question what they say or do.

I think they both should take this as a lesson learned. Take a break they both are young (starting at 16 and are in adult situations and the spot light all the time) and has been riding their albums out for two years now. TAKE A BREAK AND MAKE ANOTHER ABLUM ALREADY. Where were their parents, like a lot of people gave Beyonce’s mother and father crap about being in her life and stirring her career. But when your young and in a relationship with a much older man, them being there helped out a lot. This is what happens when you don’t have guidance, and thinking your grown.

Saturday, February 21, 2009 /

No excuses, lumping them together and saying it a “lessoned learned” I call bull ish on that. rihanna and lot of other young women and older women alike get beaten up by men all around this country. this has nothing to do with being young. This has something to do with VIOLENCE. I wish black women were smarter. I really do. People are in denial apparently. Abuse is never acceptable. Why do black women devalue themselves by looking for “reasons” to justify Chris Brown’s actions? Do we love getting our azzes whipped by men so much that we blame the victim? The answer sadly is YES. Sisters have such low self esteem that we actually believe it is rihanna’s fault that this man blacked her out with his fists???? Say it ain’t so, fools are still asking for the whole story….as if anything excuses his barbaric behavior??? I am so glad for the mother I have who taught me that no man will ever raise his hand to me in a violent way, because it will NOT be tolerated for any reason WHATSOEVER. I blame women who raised this people who say there is an excuse for being violent and putting someone in the hospital. If Rihanna wasn’t presenting a threat to his life with deadly weapon, there is no excuse for the excessive force he used to beat her up.

Wake up black women, its your lives at stake. You wonder why black men have zero respect for you???Its because you have none for yourself. Stand up and start holding these men accountable for their actions. Stop calling domestic violence “a fight”. Stop acting like you deserve to be treated like crap, break the mentality that says you deserve to be beaten up if you get “out of line’, whatever the hell getting out of line means, having an opinion? Being able to form a sentence?? Refusing to accept being cheated on???if that is getting out of line, then stay out of line and find a real man who knows how to treat a woman. Not a punk like Chris Brown who uses force against a woman because he can’t control his anger. Yes, he is a punk. Start calling it like it is instead of making excuses for being treated poorly!

The fight took place over two weeks ago now, look at the battered face she has on the pic that came out, leaked from the police right after the fight. Of course her face is healing. She has on sunglasses and you can’t see what her eyes look like, no coincidence she is wearing hair on her face to sheild the lumps he put on her head. Stop being stupid #98!! Bruises go away in time but the emotional trauma and scarring will stay with her forever. If your mother was beaten up and her bruises healed you would say it didn’t really happen? I hope you are just a young fool and not old enough to know how foolish and illogical you sound.

Gosh, Rihanna I hope that you are triumphant in all you do. You deserve much better than this. The pop world loves you even if many of your own kind turn their backs on you to support an abuser. Slave mentality at its best!

@#72 No one supports what Chris Brown did and yes it is sad that it reached that level, no man should be hitting a women, but at the same time man or women should be hitting anyone… You have to look at peoples past and situations before we throw the under the bus.. As african americans we are so quick to say why are there so many brothas in jail but we are the first ones to turn are backs on are own people. Yes, chris was wrong and yes he should seek help but at the same time he is young and dumb 19 is not 40, his mother still has some raising to do with him even if he is the bread winner of his family… So I will not turn away, instead of educating people and letting them know their wrongs we shut them out, it doesn’t help when u shut anyone out, You can’t help them and help them grow as people if you cancel them out it will only make it worse… But everybody knows so damn much… I think he needs to visit other familys with domestic abuse go to shelters and hear womens storys about what happened, what he saw with his mother had to affect him…

Yep what he saw growing up did apparently affect him, but not holding him accountable will NOT help him either. Black women are so used to running to the rescue of black men, this is why we raise weak sons who don’t take responsibility for their actions. Where is the tough love? Where are the men who will stand up and hold this man accountable for his actions. Women should not be the ones coddling him and feeling sorry for him. Black women need to learn lessons in allowing the punishment to fit the crime. We are so used to nurturing criminal minded black men that we are so emotionally confused and conflicted about this. We need to understand it is not shutting someone out when we CALL THEM OUT FOR THEIR WRONG DOING.

I don’t believe there is ever an excuse for a man to do what Chris did to Rihanna.
We need to start expecting more from these young brothas out here. When you actually believe that it is okay for Chris to jump on Rihanna if he is provoked by her, what you are saying is it is okay if she makes him mad to whip her a$$. No, its not okay. We all get mad everyday. People provoke us all day everyday, but do we act on it? No, because if you act like that at work you will get arrested and lose your job. Who told him he was above getting angry? He is not better than anyone else. If I can’t take out my anger on people because I got provoked, nor can he!! Simple as that. Its called self-control. That is the first lesson in being a man. a real man. Learn how to control yourself and you won’t be interested in controlling a woman using violence! That’s what violence and abuse is, an attempt to control.

Women, you need to understand this. You should be raising men who understand this instead of taking up for the abusers, do something constructive with yourself other than shaking your money maker up in the club. Learn what to look for in a man. A self respecting brotha would not raise his hands to smack you down. He will understand how a real man acts. A real man doesn’t hit women. Somewhere in the black community that message has gotten lost.

No I don’t condole DV on anyone, I think you took my statement all out of context. Lesson Learn meaning they both will grow from this experience, Chris learning that it is not tolerated to hit a women or anyone, Rih she will learn that she deserves better and treated with respect. WE DON’T KNOW it is up to them to handle it the way they what too. Being young does play apart in this as while because no one expected this to happen to THEM, and how do you explain what happens to most child stars they have major issues. I’m tried of people using because of what happen to his mother using it as his excuse. There are plenty of people who had messed up childhoods and turn out to be wonderful people. I mean they both need breaks apart from everything, and basically people need to stop feeding into as if they was in the back-seat.

108, I feel sorry for you if you believe provocation is an excuse for becoming violent. Chris has no excuse for his behavior. So do you also believe that when a man rapes a woman she provoked him by wearing a too short skirt? So she deserves it?? That is what you’re saying. Blame the victim for being attacked. Women have been oppressed in this society for so many years that now women are actually the ones spewing this nonsense at each other. This deluded mind set that says she did something to him just means you are delusional. You actually believe that there is an excuse for his behavior. This stems from low self-esteem and the inability to recognize you are worth more than being a mans punching bag. You need to get that through your thick heads!!

111, I think the real issue here is violence starts at a young age for many abusers. 19 years old does not mean that this is an isolated incident. Someone with his background, witnessing repaeated abuse at his own admission, it obviously affected him. My guess is that he has a lot of pent up anger seeing his mother beaten up many times, he probably felt helpless that he could not beat up the man who administered the beatings to his mom. That is probably why he uses force and anger against females like rihanna, when he gets angry he can’t control it it all spills out. That is what happens also when he has an uderlying anger at his own mom for putting him in a situation where he had to witness her being abused. Its a complicated psycological issue, but it is real. He needs help. Whether he is 19 or 49 abuse is still abuse. Nothing negates the fact that he beat Rihanna down and must pay for that crime. Period.

Juvenille institutions have offenders locked away that would scare the ish outta you. go visit one and you will see. There are some YOUNG violent criminals much younger than Chris Brown, if they are locked up for their crimes he should be too!

This is really very sad for both Rihanna and Chris. It tears my heart to see how Chris is being demonized as just another violent negro by the white blogs and yet I am saddened by the way Rihanna was disrespected as a woman , friend, and lover by Chris. However she is the one who has the bruises, and she is female, and for people , especially women, to blame is just utter ignorance. But what do we expect from a society where 70 to 80 percent of the kids are raised by single mothers and most likely have witnessed their mothers getting their asses whupped by their boyfriends. We also need to pray for the black community in which large segments have become lulled into the acceptance of violence. The rest of society which is not as accepting of crime and violence will continue to do what they have to do to maintain order in America i.e build more and more prisons.

And please don’t bother to post to me; I won’t see it and I could care less. You self-righteous **** are either very lonely, or have been man less for years or your man left you for a man. How could those that have sons be so cavalier? Please.

I can have compassion for Chris because I have brothers, nephews, male cousins and raised with a father in the home. I am a strong black woman. I have never been abused not ever.

I am lighter than Rihanna; I’ve fallen on my a$$ skating, and had bruising that lasted longer than this pretend horrific BS. Two weeks is not an adequate time to heal from a beat down, I don’t care what kind of regenerative DNA she has.

No, I don’t want my folks set up by a vicious female. Yes, I’ve seen what conniving witches can do. No, I don’t believe in Violence or Abuse of any kind. (And no, it’s not domestic since the legal term does not apply, look it up.) But there is a self-defense statute in the law whether you like it or not. And don’t think he won’t mount a defense. So there will be more dirt to come if you’re crying now just wait. None of you were there and you don’t know the story but because of some sordid female solidarity everyone is suppose to throw him under the bus. I’m not going to do it and I refuse to settle for the BS theories or “pitiful me too” scribes here and feel bad about it. He’ll get the help he needs for whatever made him go there and she should as well. I support Chris Brown.

120, hon, you sound like a got-damn fool, I don’t even think your realize it though lol
Women who stand up and support Rihanna have to be manless? That statement really tells us much about you. You feel that way because you have been brain washed by that perspective that villifies women. We see it all day everyday in videos on BET, Perpetuating the idea of woman as evil sex objects with no brains or women who hate men have to be without one. Some of us just respect ourselves enough to know that we will not allow men to treat us like ish and then defend that behavior.

I have brothers and cousins and uncles who are male. my boyfriend is a male obviously lol None of them would ever hit a woman and expect me to support them in their wrong actions. Love is not blind. Love does not enable one to commit crime and then blame victims for the atrosity! This is the problem with black people. We have forgotten how to love each other in the ways that count, by not accepting bull $hit!

I know, you brought up the fact that you are light skin, lighter than Rihanna for what? Because you believe that makes you immune to jealousy of her? You’re telling on yourself without knowing it lol..We won’t think less of you if you are dark-skinned , that doesn’t make you more deserving of abuse. Just understand this, one day you may end up running into one of those men you are defending. Let’s hope you won’t catch a beat down and then called a coniving woman who provoked him. smdh.

120, Why does Rihanna have to be a viscious female? Why is she somehow responsible for getting beat up? You’re making no sense. It sounds like you believe Chris is justified in whipping her behind. hmmmm. Now, I understand why so many people are angry about the state of the black community. Some women are so desperate for the approval of a black man that they will probably stick up for them even if the woman is bloody and hospitalized. WOW. Men have always been more keen to stick together than women. Women turn on each other for men, that reeks of desperation. I have a son and nephew and both know good and well that VIOLENCE against a woman will never be approved of in our family. Thank goodness we are not in the hood because this is crazy.

@27 PMS I was thinking the EXACT same thing when I saw the pictures of them at the Grammy party. There’s one particular photo where she’s hugging him and he’s not hugging back but looking at her in the corner of his eye like he was thinking something evil. Hate to say it but like ‘get off me beep!

I feel like she should have just let it go, if the relationship had ended prior to the grammy party. You can’t force someone to be with you, regardless if it’s to fool the public until you decide to officially end it. Therefore I feel like this could have been one of the reasons which sparked the argument, and unfortunetly it ended in such a terrible way. My heart goes out to Rihanna, it’s bad enough having such a horrible thing happen to you. But to then have it aired everywhere, it’s such a shame it had to end this way.

I am saddened by how Chris has all of a sudden become a DEMON of some sort…this happens all the time, im nor excusing his behavior at all, but what happened to innocent until proven guilty? Where is the other side of the story? Some of you are saying it doesn’t matter..but it does. No sane human would put their hands on another human for the hell of it…Poor Rihanna yes, but if the reports of this not being the first time they have fought then….Chris has a lot of growing to do, who knows if years and years of psychological shit transpired all of this. This is a bigger case than “oh he hit her” Yes he did but WHY?

113 aka fashionista and many other posters

Why must this always be a black or white thing or man against woman. lets be honest we honestly do not know what actually took place we are not god and we are thinking to deep into this. If you guys are so disturbed by this saga why don’t you go volunteer at the neartest shelter for battered Men/women and help those WHO REALLY DO NEED THE SUPPORT. THE REAL ISSUE WITH THE BLACK COMMUNITY IS T0O OFTEN WE ARE ALL TALK AND NO ACTION! Have any of you posters voluntered at a shelter, mentored the battered, or started any reinforcement programs to help the abused? I am proud to say that as a current college student i have volutered at various shelters and help mentor abuse teens so please practice what you preach. With that said, it is because of posters like you that chris’s case may be thrown out, for the simple fact that the picture was released, he is already guilty before his day in court, I do not, and i repeat I DO NOT condone in any shape or form the act of domestic violence against MEN OR WOMEN but too often women are given a free pass b/c they are female. I do not know what rock some of you guys have lived under but in this day and age situations like this occur everyday and NO ONE PERSON IS RESPONSIBLE B/C IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO. Often women have no other way to express their anger and choose to use force and do not understand what no and stop means and as humans naturally our instant reaction is to counter act physical activity with more physical activity. I will not pass judgement on anyone until they are given a oppurtunity to express their side there may be no justification for hitting ANYONE but often things are not as they seem. I know this from volunteering at shelters for battared men and women and hearing multiple stories which leadas me to restate my original statement ALL THREE SIDES OF A DOMESTIC DISPUTE SHOULD BE HEARD B4 ANY JUDGMENT IS PASSED b/c people lives are ruined b/c of public opinon and the long term affects are devastating.

p.s i spotted this on another blog earlier and the theori actually seems quite feasable

Here’s the real story as relayed to me from a friend on the inside.

The D.A. threw the case back because of Rhianna’s statement. - Not complaint! The injuries incurred during their spat, was the result of Chris Slamming on the breaks, thus causing one of the bruises on Rhianna’s forehead. The busted lip and other bruises was caused by three elbows to her face by Chris, due to him warding off Rhianna’s repeated attempts to grab Chris’s cell phone. There was no “CHOKING” or deliberate punching after the car came to a halt.

According to what I heard, Rhianna will not press charges because she realizes that she has just as much culpability in this as Chris does. Both parties are pretty embarrassed that this whole fiasco has been blown out of proportion.

According to what i’ve heard, Chris will probably be charged with a misdemeanor aggravated assault, and put on probation (maybe). Trust me, both parties just want the whole thing to go away.

Whatever she did to him, nothing could have warranted him to physically attack her. What it boils down to is self control and if he is adult to commit adult crimes, then he should be adult to know self control and when to just walk away. Would it really have been that hard just to cool off and let it be? He will wear this on his shoulders forever and I honestly cant see him coming back from this, especially now since the situation has become that much more valid, given the recent leak of the photo.

@135, there is NEVER AN EXCUSE. AND YOU ARE ASSUMING HE IS SANE? HE BIT HER, BEAT HER UNTIL SHE BLACKED OUT. ARE YOU SERIOUSLY SAYING HIS SIDE WILL REDEEM HIM? WHAT CAN HE IS ALSO FACING A CHARGE OF ISSUING A CRIMINAL THREAT AGAINST HER, THAT MEANS HE THREATENED TO DO BODILY HARM AND EVEN POSSIBLY KILL HER. AND YOU SAY HE HAS A REASON FOR THAT. YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY HE DID IT? BASICALLY YOU ARE SAYING HE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS ACTIONS.??? WTF????????????????????????????????????????????? IS WRONG WITH YOU?????????????????????
WHY? YOU ASK? IF IT WERE YOUR MOM, WOULD YOU ASSUME SHE DID SOMETHING TO MAKE HIM GO CRAZY OR WOULD YOU SAY HE WAS CRAZY WITH A DEEP DARK SIDE IN WHICH MOST BATTERERS HAVE. THEY ARE LIKE DR, JECKYL & MR. HYDE AND THEY ARE CUNNING.
IT IS HARD FOR YOU TO BELIEVE THAT BECAUSE YOU ARE BLINDED BY
MARKETING AND AN IMAGE THAT CHRIS BROWN HAS SOLD YOU.

NO MATTER WHAT, THIS CRIME WON’T BE TOLERATED UNDER THE LAW. HIS SIDE DOESN’T MATTER. THERE IS NOTHING TO EXCUSE THIS BEHAVIOR, HE CAN’T EVEN LIE WHICH IS WHY HE ISSUED A PSUEDO APOLOGY THROUGH HIS PR FIRM. YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY, SEND HIS A$$ TO A THERAPIST!! HE IS OBVIOUSLY STONE CRAZY!

I just wish this story would die already. There’s more important things in the world to worry about than another young woman getting beat up! Yea many women get beat up, but that’s mostly because of weakness and stupidity. I DON’T EVEN SEE ANY DAMN SCARS! Yea it’s a shame that Chris did this to her but I don’t like how this is going to strengthen her career because people feel sorry for her. This story should have never gotten out and it’s funny because if it wasn’t a big celebrity like Rihanna who was hit by Chris, nobody would have cared. It was a fight between both of them and is their business. She got hit but I know there’s going to be a song and interviews about it and that’s shameful because you don’t use your personal life just for publicity and glory. If you really think about it, every female has gotten into a crazy ass fight with their boyfriend, physical or not physical, and I believe people are making this a bigger deal than it is.

YES, I HAVE WORKED WITH DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS SO YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IS NOT A “FIGHT”. MEN WHO BEAT WOMEN ARE TAUGHT THAT EVERY EXCUSE IS TO BE ABANDONED. THERE IS NO MALE INSTINCT EXCUSE EITHER. THIS GIRL WEIGHT WHAT 120 POUNDS AND POSED NO IMMINENT THREAT TO HIS LIFE. HE WENT OFF ON HER ON HIS OWN ACCORD. COULD NOT CONTROL HIS ANGER PROBLEMS. IT IS NEVER THE FAULT OF THE PERSON WHO CAUGHT THE BEAT DOWN. PART OF BEING A RESPONSIBLE ADULT IS SELF-CONTROL AND SELF-DISCIPLINE. IN A COURT OF LAW YOU CAN NOT USE THAT LAME EXCUSE OF “I WAS PROVOKED” YOU WILL CATCH A BATTERY CHARGE. PLAIN AND SIMPLE. UNFORTUNATELY BLACKS ARE MORE APT TO BE ACCEPTING OF THIS TYPE OF BEHAVIOR DUE TO IT BEING CULTURALLY ACCEPTABLE IN TOO MANY AFRICAN-AMERICAN HOMES TOO SAD!

Furthermore I need to add that people never know what it is like until it’s you or somebody you know that this happens to and it is devastating. Almost two year’s ago this happened to my friend, and Rihanna faired much better than she did, the doctors told her that one more blow to her head she could have been in a wheel chair or dead. Rihanna’s police foto looks like a glamour shot compared to my friend’s and it makes me so angry to hear people defend Chris Brown’s sorry ass, I dont care what she did, he should have kept his hands to himself, PERIOD.

141, just because this is normal to you to have a fight with your man doesn’t make this any less of a crime. all it says about you is that you are used to violence like many others on here making excuses for this type of behavior. Let me help you out, not everyone has had a crazy fight with their man, I haven’t. Yes we have argued but never called out of my name and never hit, nor have we ever gone off on eachother swinging fists! Grow up! Its not normal or acceptable.

I think now that the light is being shined on this issue, people are defending this action of Chris because they recognize this as behavior they accept from these fools they date. They are in denial and look for excuses because they don’t want to face the fact that their own relationships are just as bad.

This is really sick!

Diam0nd D what have you been sippin on this morning? Your right in the court of law there is no such thing as a “i was provoked” defense but there is a such thing as a “SELF DEFENSE” clause and many have counter sued and won. Also if i was you i wouldn’t go accusing people of having poor sources b/c your claims have been proven FALSE earlier this week. And honestly what shelters have you worked in? B/c DV is a very serious subject but while working with young adults in a mentoring program and monotered counseling sessions i have heard many stories come from young women and men about altercations with their bf/gf getting out of hand it can go from 0-10 in the matter of seconds and no one person is innocent in a FIGHT. A fight and domestic beating are two seperete things LOOK IT UP AND EDUCATE YOURSELF. She did not get a beat down trust me RIHANNAS face was swollen from excessive crying, eyes were dark around it b/c of smeared mascara, there was a cut IN HER MOUTH and not a BUSTED LIP you can tell b/c there is no exposed cut on the outside of her mouth and she has 2 bruises on her forehead that i would put my money on came from hitting her head on something based ont The way the BRUISES ARE SITUATED ON EVEN SIDES OF HER FOREHEAD. NOW A BEATDOWN would have left her in the hospital wit broken bones, broken flash, and would need more than 2weeks oF seclusion to heal. Im not trying to justify chris but i am sure not going to crucify him ethier being asthough i believe in “innocent till proven guilty” he deserves the right to express his side and have his day in court. thanx

Sometimes i wonder…its like 12 yr olds are all up in this mess!!!…concreteloop i think u need some kind of age verification step when ppl are signing up on the site…i didnt know ppl were so dumb.
For what its worth Im glad she’s back…glad she’s back out in public…first step to taking back ur life …she certainly have alot to think about.
Now as for the “grown women” ( I presume please correct me if im wrong) saying that she deserved it n she hit him first, i wanna know who is breezy to u???…that boy dont even know u breathe the same air he does n even if he did he wouldnt care. Some of u be all up on him defending his behavior like he signs your checks at the end of every damn month. Its ridiculous!
He can keep is side-eye necessary statement about finding jesus ( as if once he mentions that word its all gravy)…real men admit when they have gone too far regardless of what led up to that moment, u stand up and take responsibility for ur own actions.
oh n if ur sick of rihanna i would think the smart thing to do is overlook her posts n not be all up in them like its playtime kids. im out.

146 I question why you feel you are an authority on this subject. being beaten by someone does not mean you are qualified to know how she received her bruises on her head. for all you know she could have had her head slammed into somethign with the help of Chris Brown. You don’t know anymore than anyone else. Working in a DV shelter myself, there is no excuse for why it happens, it should never happen. Self defense? okay, we will see but I think you are here trying to do damage control on a situation that is clearly past that stage. There is no excuse for battery and you are assuming Chris is not responsible for those bruises based on what? lmao puhlease. More excuses, but they won’t hold up in court.

Like get over this black community BS domestic disputes occur in many homes all over the country to people of all backgrounds.

@ 146 Just b/c personally you have never gotten into a physical altercation with your spouse does not mean it dosent happen. Like i stated previously i do not condone anyone being beat on man or woman. But i have seen couples fight and i have seen it get physical (my parents) and both people are ALWAYS GUILTY in a fight it takes two in a domestic beating it is inflicted upon one by another. If rihanna made the first physical move and chris tried to prevent her from doing so repeaditly but accidently hit her a few times intentionally or unitentionally that is a FIGHT and he was using SELF DEFENSE. NOW IF CHRIS STARTED wailing on rihanna punching her continuiously, used force to restrain her, dragged her out the car and continued to hit her even after she was helpless that is a DOMESTIC BEATING and he should be punished. But honestly after observing the picture i notice it had no swollen black eyes, no punctured skin, no swollen cheeks, and no gashes my opinion is they had a fight that got more out of hand then ethier had planned and i will continue to pray for them both. Now only time will tell and we will just have to wait till march 5th to find whether it was a fight (where neither is innocent) or if it was a domestic beating where chris should be punished. POINT BLANK PERIOD.

@ Chris

Don’t worry im sure chris could give a damn who you are so the feeling is mutual…lol
I see you are bitter b/c of what you witness your friend go through but not every man is just a woman beater point blank. I know it sounds harsh but its true. My mother constantly abused my father often physically and mentally she attacked him numerous times in heated arguments and my father refrained from using force. One day she threw a toaster at his head causing him to bleed i was furious i was praying just once for him to hit her back…i never thought it was fair for my mother to get away with the things she did. Well that day my father pushed her she fell into something i don’t remember and she got a bruise on her head she called the cops the cops took my father away and believed every lie my mother spewed finally they released my father after forcing him to pay a fine. Since then i always vowed to never put my hands on anyone especially my spouse b/c just like a man has no right to hit me i have no right to hit him b/c it is human nature that the reaction will not be the one we want if we choose to physically attack or use any type of force on our partners. I kno first hand that there are alway 3sides to a domestic dispute and fight and working at shelter have only open my eyes to that fact even more.

151 you are not a doctor, you can’t say how Rihanna got those bruises. The police obviously believed her story or nothing would be going to court in march. How can you say she wasn’t battered. Her lips were swollen and bloody, her nose looked huge like she had been hit, two huge welts on each side of her forehead, and bite marks on her arm according to sources in the police department? You can say you work in a shelter, have tons of experience with DV in your own home, still does not mke you an authority on the subject. It doesn’t make your opinion any more fact than anything else posted here. You are seeking to minimize the damage here but its not working. Rihanna is not the blame for Chris Brown savagely attacking her. There are many DV victims without any broken bones. Pushing someone around is categorized the same way as DV. No one should ever in a hostile manner put their hands on you. This is the problem with this ignorance that is spread here. One scratch constitutes being abused. Blacks seem to have more tolerance and since many have seen it in their homes tend to need to see someone near dead to accept that they are a victim of abuse. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! STOPPPP! No one should ever raise their hands to you. “fighting” physically is UNACCEPTABLE . Period. LADIES RAISE YOUR STANDARDS!

Clearly you are looking to justify Chris’s actions based on your own unfortunate experience. So sad.SMDH.

oh yeah, Chris also vowed never to hit a woman based on what happened to his mom, we all know how that turned out. YOU NEED COUNSELING> every woman is not like your mom. Rihanna should not be penalized for the sins of your mother. hmmm maybe someone should have told Chris that too!

Gee what do I know I am only a double major in psychology and pre med. My ultimate goal is only to be a clinical psychologist and work closely with domestic issues hence the reasons why I do so much community service in shelters and mentor abused teens. As an aspiring psychologist we are taught to not pass judgment and look at the bigger picture for everyone should be allowed to have their stories heard. Diamond D your statement “THANKS FOR TELLING US WHY YOU FEEL ITS ACCEPTABLE, BECAUSE YOU SAW IT IN YOUR HOME!! POINT PROVEN. “Truly shows how ignorant you really are. Sorry people believe in the judicial system and that everyone is entitled to their rights as a U.S citizen and should be innocent till proven guilty. Violence is never acceptable but the main point of that story is stuff happens and everyone deserves to tell their side.
@Truth hurts
I have seen women who have been beaten I have counseled them, mentored them and formed close relationships with them. We have open discussions about this case in my classes and even in my shelter meetings. I work with men and woman who have been victims and I have visited many in the hospital. SO TRUST ME WHEN I SAY I KNOW WHAT A BEATING LOOKS LIKE SO IF THIS PICTURE WAS AFTER A “BEATING” SHE IS EXTREMLEY LUCKY. Based on the medical classes I have taken I know what being punched in the face continuously would look like, I know how fist patterns and fingerprints can be determined on the body, I mean damn if you watch Law & Order SVU you too would know what it looks like. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know the bruises on her forehead were not done with a fist and that a fist was pretty much absent in this altercation…I WOULD PUT MY MONEY ON IT. I also hate that just b/c princess ri ri got in a scuffle all these ppl want to act like they are so affected this is a issue that should have always been disturbing to you don’t decide now you want to crucify Chris when there’s probably a Tameka and Tyrone going through this everyday and you look the other way and could care less and would normally thin “it’s not my problem”

What part of I don’t condone violence of any sort mostly b/c of what I witnessed in my home do you not understand? I clearly stated that I don’t believe women should have the right to raise their hands to men just like men shouldn’t ever raise their hand to a woman. The whole point of my story was that men are not always the aggressor and that women can be vicious as well and I was just being honest. I never said rihanna provoked him and never did I say she deserved it. I’m simply not going to pass judgment on neither one of them. Why when a person doesn’t jump on the “I hate Chris” bandwagon they need therapy. Sweethearts I am more than certain that I don’t need therapy since I am the one at this time administering it. My job is to stay neutral in domestic disputes and listen to all sides which is what I was trying to do here. We haven’t heard Chris nor rihanna’s side so I was just giving my opinions…is that a crime? I wouldn’t compare myself to Chris b/c I have been trying to dedicate myself to reducing domestic violence b/c of what I saw in my house and I have an open heart for everyone.

Oh I definitely see that there is a definite difference between those who have grown up seeing violence in the black community versus those who haven’t. The responses are quite different. There is such a difference on non-black blogs in acceptance of criminal behavior. We are not here to be Chris Brown’s therapy session. He committed a crime and will be punished wich is why he turned himself in and did not address this situation by denying it. He issued an apology, that says a lot. So for those waiting on his day in court, it will be a sad one indeed because this little punk is pleading guilty. Just wait and see.

Theres more to the story because if the case was true of what is being portrayed by the media of what he has done then he would been in jail.

I bet you same posters were out celebrating when oj Simpson was let off the first time, and I bet all you posters jeered and cheered when Tina finally whooped Ike oppose to being deeply distraught at the things the abused are forced to endure. Too often black people are all talk and no action all walk and no substance. I Hope now when u hear that sasha and damon down the street are fighting you will take time out to report it and do all you can to bring awareness.

How can you let somebody beat up on your children? I don’t want to hear oh this, oh that, I would fugg that mofo’er up for life. Yes Chris was wrong for beating her down like that, but we all know that Rhianna is already back with Chris.

Wow why do black people always support the wrong doing criminals just like O.J Simpson, and now you see he is in Jail to stay. When are you all going to figure out the fact that supporting criminals is not the move! It just comes back to bite you in the ass! Supporting Chris Brown is doing nothing more than enabling him into being more of a woman beater. What a loser.

I wonder if Rihanna knew that Chris Brown made the statement below to Giant Magazine. I believe I heard him make a similar statement on the “Ellen Show”. But then again, women still go after the men on death row.

“I just want you to know that I love you,” Brown told his mother, according to the magazine. “But I’m gonna take a baseball bat one day while you at work, and I’m gonna kill him.”

you dont know nothing, Nobody does, from this pic she look fine beside her face expression!

Being from England,the law stratergy is different im sure chris has one felony threats against him - if it was ”GBH” i.e assault (Look it up) then wouldnt he be in jail????

Theres more to the story because if the case was true of what is being portrayed by the media of what he has done then he would been in jail.

Some of you have nothing better to do then JUDGE, Acting like yall havent said undignified word to you Mother or Father/or hit someone. Like you guys are jesus Saints.

Rihanna strikes me as the type who just thought he would change but he kept cheating on her, getting violent and saying sorry they would break up and get back together. You know how it goes. I don’t blame her at all for what happened. I think he had hidden issues and she didn’t want to believe how bad it really was. I don’t think that was the first time he hit her.

It is a trip though the fact that all the white blogs are riding for her and some black people act like she deserved her ass whipped. smdh

“Chris looks gay anyway. I bet he is one of those males with a complex. He can’t fight a dude but he can beat a chick.”

In trying to understand this situation, I was also wondering if this may have been an issue that caused a lot of tension within Chris who may have been forced by his management to enhance his image with a phony relationship with Rihanna, and unfortunately she fell in love with him. The movie studios used to do such things in the old days and caused much pain to gullible women.

Rihanna is beautiful, I’m not surprised by some of the women who are happy he hit her. They feel inferior to her, she is someone they hate because Chris was with her. They blame her for his downfall because they always hated her and were jealous of her anyway. Chris is from a trailer park and never felt really deserving anyway of being with a girl that attractive. Thats why he tried to mess up her face because he knows she can have a much better looking, richer man than he will ever be.

Also, was he sexually abused by the dude who beat his mother? I read that he wanted to beat the man with a baseball bat, that sounds extreme, he must have really experienced something terrible to be so violent!

He seems like the type with a double personality. Mr. Goody two shoes in public and a violent monster behind closed doors. The police said he made criminal threats probably told her he would kill her and some of you all act like there is an excuse for that. The most disturbing part is that he left the scene and left her there beat up. That is one cold hearted ass wipe! I guess that hidden dark side came out when he got mad, still no excuse for what he did. Send his punk a$$ to jail and let him get down with some real hardened criminals, lets see how he handle himself then man to man.

This does NOT make any difference, but I can kinda see what some people are saying about her pic. I don’t think he straight up took her and beat her. It seemed to have been different things like him jabbing her with his elbow (as someone said before) and then realized wtf he did and got scared as shit so he ran.

If you think about it, Rihanna is handling this VERY WELL. She’s being really mature and careful. Gotta respect her.

Just stop reading fickle stories online,rihanna marks on her forheaad look like ”horn marks” that photo looked photoshopped. If she had that busted lip,gashes then they would be present in this candid shot. I am judging by this shot,like someone mentioned he may have just hit her with his elbow not intentionally then realised.There are so many stories out there ”example” she threw the first punch” .

” chris was driving,rihanna was grabbing for his phone he tried stopping her while he was driving.”

he braked the she hit her head on the deck, etc How do you know anything. you just idolising you stan! you dont know what happen so how can you say, i dont know anything either.However im going with my instincts.Your acting like he bashed her for no reason,his the one that let go of the relationship - but had to go on with because the reps told them so.

Yeh brusies go away but not tht quick they take time minium 4+ weeks depending on how deep they are. Tea tree oil etc dont doesnt make the healing process any faster. Like you said they go in time however its only been about nearly two weeks and they dont go away that fast. Dont be so vavcucous, your contradicting yourself you ignorant poltroon.

He pulled over purposely to beat her down… They usually lock the man up here in North Carolina after the magistrate issues a warrant for arrest. Thery have pics too? This is crazy. Domestic Violence is a serious matter. He left her at the scene. If I was Rhianna, I would sue Chris for millions…He is virtually washed up anyway at this time… The white pop teeny boppers no longer see him as a heart throb… He is finished…Once white folks stop liking you in the record industry or entertainment industry you are FINISHED!!!

Like someone said on here, if those bruises were on her face,they would be evident in this picture to.Her face looks flawless. Bruises like that cannot heal within 1 & half weeks. Seriously if it happened that way,then why are family members worried she will go back to him - unlikely he wants her back. If he hurt like you say? they why would she go back to him. or contemplating to do so. She would be like you messed me up, F You! im hindu and i have met chris. He was only suppose to do 3 shows from where im from and he ending up doing sold out arena show just a month ago. His fans are still behind.

What a shame for black people (of all people) to rush to judgement and jump on the bandwagon as the white ass media breaks their necks to bring this young man down WITHOUT ANY FACTS! I see Justin Timberlake got something new coming out…a little less competition now?…see where I’m going with that? Straight B.S. It just shows how much America (secretly) still hates black men…and apparently how much black people continue to hate themselves…turning on one another at the blink of an eye because of some shyt you “heard”. I am utterly disgusted by our participation in this modern day lynching. The only people who seemed to have a little bit of sense, is Will & Jada. As crazy as they are, I have mad respect for them for the stance they took. That is the stance that any self respecting/loving black person would have taken. Take notes, morons.

Chris Brown has proven his true colours even more, apparently he sweet talked her and she is getting back with him. He is so manipulative, he’s got her alll wrapped around his little finger. It is reallly sad what love will make you do, I feel that her self-esteem is only fuellled when she is with Chris Brown. Why does she want to be this man that has beat her and been unfaithful, also it has been proven he was ready to cheat her, because the women has stepped up and even has the text messages to prove it.

I feel so bad for, she really does look dissapointed with herself and the thing is it isn’t even her fault and alll these chris brown fanatics really need to look at themselves in the mirror and know that Chris Brown would never look at theme twice, they are only hating on rihanna becasue that was the person he chose to be with. It is unforntunate that she is back with him because she is only letting herself down.

Like Monica’s song: So gone, Rihanna is completely blinded by Chris
Like Ashanti’s song:Foolish, she is going back to Chris Brown

There are many songs that relate to what happened, Rihanna sings Take a Bow, I wish she should listen to her on songs and learn from them. How ironic

Sunday, February 22, 2009 /

The only reason I want this story to die down is so they can handle their business in private bt their celebs so unfortunately, that wont be the case and so I can stop listening to some ppls attitudes arguing about Domestic Violence cos i really cant afford to throw my Mac out the window or educate some ppl’s thoughts.

I find it quite amusing how those who say we should wait until March 5th before we judge cos no ones knows what happened are themselves coming with theories about what happened. That’s true, no one knows what happened in the Lambo or when they got out, but we do know that Rihanna was taken to hospital and Chris was arrested, and released on bail. If he really cared about her rather than saving his own skin, he would’ve stayed with her and foned for help or asked a passer-by at least. That just makes things worse. If it was ’self defense’ as people keep trying to reason, his people would’ve filed it so there would’ve been more responsiblity on both parts. Roll on March 5th for him to express his feelings and justify his actions before the judge.

People are quick to say, ‘but there are females who act crazy and batter their men’ as a way of reasoning with Chris’ actions which is very true and also unnacceptable. Anyone who can’t resolve an issue without resorting to violence everytime needs to assess their behaviour to say the least.
But lets face FACTS of this incident, its Rihanna’s face the world has seen, and not Chris’. If it were his picture, I’d be condoning her behaviour and lack of self control… But its not.

As for his career, *shrugs*.

217.

RealFake

Sunday, February 22, 2009 /

Since we have all been speculating so far, some of what is factual is that:

Chris was not at the scene when the cops arrived.
Neither one of the involved parties have made statements surrounding the altercation.
So far, no one else has revealed having witnessed the altercation.

However, we have seen pictures and as they say a picture is worth a thousand words i.e from the perspective of the viewer.

I have seen a picture of Chris’s knuckles all bruised up(don’t know if it is real)
I have seen a picture of Rihanna’s face all bruised up(supposedly a real picture according to the LA Police).

I cannot imagine someone in a fight only smacking the opponent’s face, so I am left to speculate as to where else, on the body, either party may have sustained injuries.

This is all I know so far. Much of what I read from these posts, in my opinion, amounts to nothing more than a ton of cow shit.

Thinking about the pic that surfaced…it would appear that CB put in a lot of work and I can not see him or anyone else being able to do that much damage to ones face from the driver seat in the public in that short span of time, while the paparazzi may be close… where were the bodyguards to stop the fight or “Abuse”. There must have been some sort of accident and her face hit the dashboard. The 2 knots on her head look identical, which could have come from an instant hit to the dashboard… He had to slam the breaks while they were arguing and hitting each other.

so much to speculate.

Long story short at the end of the day, every person who has made up their mind and condemned Chris b based on hearsay and a single photo, is an idiot and really should not be called an American. INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY?? ahahah. What a joke. This is exactly where prejudice and hatred comes from, misconceived notions based on little evidence and stereotypes.

HOW is chris all of a sudden showing manipulative behavior of a woman abuser? NONE of you are in his personal life behind closed doors. and we all know celebrities lives are not so personal ALL OF THE PHOTOS OF THEM TOGETHER AND WE HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE BRUISE?. Lmao you people make me laugh.

Chris career will be fine…march 5th will roll around and the full details will come out and you will see that this case fell victim to excessive speculation. Rihanna did obtain injuries but more than likely not how we expected. I believe they did get into some kind of automobile accident as a result of a argument getting out of hand that did involve some kind of physical struggle which is why her pr team had originally issue the statement that they got into a automobile accident before they found out the full details b/c i heard often even the pr team is kept in the dark and are only told half a story.

That herpes claim is so lame. I have never heard of someone beating up another person for giving them an std and I won’t even go into the prevalence of std’s among young blacks.
That claim is comes from those females who saw Rihanna as a threat to their baby support check - they thought somehow they had a chance of becoming pregnant by Chris Brown and never having to work for the rest of their lives.

This really baffling and sad and I too am trying to understand and my own speculations seem to believe that that kind of rage stems from Chris’s confusion with his sexual orientation and having to put up with a female which his management team forced on him - she innocently fell in love with him, and wanted to be with him all the time to be point where it became overbearing. It eI wont be surprised if Rihanna is a virgin.

Sorry but I just can’t understand how someone could beat up on their friend and lover in such a manner. Such violence, such rage. Even that crazed chimp in Maccachusetts was in more control and did not attack the woman who cared for him.

I still feel for Chris because he is so young and the road ahead does not look too good. He most definately is a tortured soul.

There is always more to the story, we havent heard anything about that night from either of them. It will be interesting to see what each of them will say. People are all caught up in that picture, but behind that pic is a story that we dont know-weve all assumed. What I do know is LAPD is the most corrupt police dept on earth. So I feel for him having to deal with them. They killed BIG, beat Rodney, and most def know who killed Tupac but they aint talking about that. Lastly…I read the DA kicked evidence back to the police for more investigation. Why? If they have THAT picture why do they need more? Seems like a slam dunk case to me, everyone and their mother ASSUMES its from a good ol fashion ass kickin…what does the DA know that we dont? Perhaps its her statement to police……

I feel so sorry for Rihanna. Not only because I’m a huge fan of hers. But I feel sorry for her as a woman to have to go thru something like this at such a young age or at all. My condolences go out to her and to the people who love and care about her. I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy and I would be in jail if anything like this were to happen to my sisters, cousins, best friend or whoever. No one deserves this.

Obviously, there are a lot of young people on this site who fail to understand the effects of domestic violence. This is a real problem in our community and is constantly filtered in the culture, ie music, movies etc. Domestic violence can happen to ANYONE and is often unplanned and unprovoked. Cowards usually engage in sneak attacks on victims who are ill prepared to defend themselves. This is going to be a long process for Rhianna, invading her privacy and injecting our opinions is useless and frankly none of our business. Things are always more complicated than they seem especially matters of the heart. I am a strong, educated, talented woman but I was a victim of a sneak attack by a deranged ex who tried to destroy my life and career. I survived and so can you Rhianna. Let the naysayers hate. You NEVER know, it could be you someday. Jealousy and envy between men and women must end!

I’m starting to think this relationship really wasn’t real to begin with..but actually was a ploy to build Rihanna and especially Chris’ career.

Notice how the couple started coming out publically last year almost to the day of the attack, right around the Grammys and Clive Davis’ party??? HMMMMM.

If their relationship was a ploy, agreed in advance that it would run for one year, it worked too well–they made too good a couple! Far from hating, the public actually loved them and expected them to stay together and maybe even get married someday!! I’m sure they slept together and maybe even fell “in love.” They were so perfect together!

But Chris is ONLY 19. Too young, much too young for such a heavy commitment for such a young, rich, famous, and good looking young man, who has honeys all over the world literally hangin from his dcik!

He wanted to end the relationship, as per the terms of the original agreement, but Rihanna didn’t. As the end of the agreement neared, she started to pressure him, he tried to hold her to the plan because she “knew it wasn’t a relationship” and it was over as agreed! But Rihanna wasn’t trying to hear that, because they were so great together and were so “in love….”

We know how guys get when girls try to turn a FB relationship into a real one, right? It doesn’t work!! How you started up is how you gotta end up in a situation like that.

If Rihanna was older and wiser, she would have let Chris go, started dating other people, and let him come back to her on his own when he was ready. Oh, she’d have to close her legs (to Chris) also:)

Due to the extraordinary pressures of this fake situation, feeling trapped and enraged Chris lost his patience and temper and blew!!

The rest is history.

This is just my .02 — any thoughts??

Get well Rihanna, you didn’t deserve this. Can’t wait to see you back out there lil mama.

Chris get it together and make the amends needed to salvage your career. You’re too talented to let it all go down the drain like this.

“She looks like she is crying behind those glasses. She made her own bed and she should lie in it. She has been living that high life, singing about how she never buys anything on sale, everything designer and that shit. Hey, it comes with the territory. I have no sympathy. None.”
**********************************************************

It is just her image. It is for “entertainment” purposes. Just because she’s rich doesn’t mean she doesn’t deserve our sympathy. You are right about one thing-you are cold as ice.

“Im sooooooooooooo tiered of this she doesnt represent anything but a girl who had a fight with her man we should be focussing on people who suffer domestic violence on a day to day basis… some people are in these relationships for years!!”
******************************************************************
The problem is it doesn’t look like she got a chance to fight back, so it wasn’t a fair fight. The good thing is these people who you say we should be focusing on indirectly are being helped by Rhianna’s situation. They don’t have to feel isolated. If this could happen to her it could happen to anyone.

“What im saying is its hard to really judge because i think she is confused.”

*******************************************************

I agree she does seem to be confused, but I think it’s mostly because she may still have feelings for Chris. It must be hard. You don’t just stop loving someone-even if that someone beat you up.

“Rihanna dosen`t even mention the leaked photo nor does she threaten to sue TMZ.,that`s because the leaked photo does not violate her privacy”

“But they fought in public, out in the open for bystanders to see and take photos,and she freely allowed certain people to take photos.Anything that takes place in public becomes part of the public domain.GOD BLESS YOU RIHANNA!and get well soon.”
**********************************************************

These photos weren’t taken in public. These photos were taken by the police. Big difference.

“It’s sad that Rihanna, who probably was learning this due to all of her exposure to the predatory men of color in the music business, and now sees that the majority of support for her is occurring outside the black community.
And people wonder why Tina Turner turned her back on black folks and never looked back.
Ike Turner is a hero in the black community and folks laugh off his abuse with jokes. The same will happen for Chris Brown. His career is FAR from over in the world of BET and Vibe magazine.”

BRAVO!!!

“Where were their parents, like a lot of people gave Beyonce’s mother and father crap about being in her life and stirring her career. But when your young and in a relationship with a much older man, them being there helped out a lot. This is what happens when you don’t have guidance, and thinking your grown.”
*****************************************************************

No doubt Beyonce’s parents care about her, but they are also in the business. They are about making that dough. Mathew let her education slide so she could be a big star. I’d hate to think what would have happened to Beyonce with her limited education had it not worked out. Furthermore, Beyonce’s parents were very close to being divorced because Mathew is a cheating, coke snorting dog. Also, I truly believe her parents didn’t want her with JAY-Z, but what can you do? Beyonce thought she was grown. Let’s just wait to see how that pans out before making her the poster girl.
