‘ROUND THE WAY: RIHANNA OPENS UP IN GLAMOUR MAG - “I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears..”
Tuesday, November 3, 2009

Rihanna, who is currently on a media blitz this week, recently sat down for a candid interview with Glamour Magazine. She is being honored by the magazine next week in NYC and has been given the title of ‘Glamour Woman Of The Year’ alongside Michelle Obama, Maya Angelou, Serena Williams and others.
In the article, she opens up a bit about the aftermath of the Grammy night incident with former boyfriend Chris Brown. Read some key snippets below:
On the leaked photo of her battered face:
It was humiliating; that is not a photo you would show to anybody. I felt completely taken advantage of. I felt like people were making it into a fun topic on the Internet, and it’s my life. I was disappointed, especially when I found out the photo was [supposedly leaked by] two women.On the aftermath:
It has taught me so much. I felt like I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears. That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day. It was like, What, there are helicopters circling my house? There are 100 people in my cul-de-sac? What do you mean, I can’t go back home?My friends and family have been extremely supportive, and everyone has been there for me. But at some point you are there alone. It’s a lonely place to be—no one can understand. That’s when you get close to God.

On Domestic Violence:
Domestic violence is a big secret. No kid goes around and lets people know their parents fight. Teenage girls can’t tell their parents that their boyfriend beat them up. You don’t dare let your neighbor know that you fight. It’s one of the things we [women] will hide, because it’s embarrassing. My story was broadcast all over the world for people to see, and they have followed every step of my recovery. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn’t heard. Now I can help speak for those women.
On finding love one day:
I hope I find love in the next 10 years—that will be pretty annoying if I am 31 and still have never been in love!

@ 13
just because she says something about “God” dosent mean its your god a God is someone you worship whether good or bad She just said something about a “God” because people are saying she worships the devil. This girl sounds so stupid she didnt even speak out about the incident but she wants to give as much insight as she can? Remedial broad

Most people just hate as a “sheep effect” really.
Like if they see Rihanna get hated on, they’ll follow suite cause it’s the thing to do & it’s hard for most humans to go against the grain..
The same thing has happened before; whether it was Ciara, Tameka, Kim K, and elsewhere Mariah, Paris, Britney. The list goes on and on..I mean even Janet who is getting mad love atm was once hated for “singing sex songs at 40″ lol. Basically, you give people someone to hate and make up a bogus reason and they’ll go along with it!

Haters must be about to have a heart attack…
Riri is named woman of the year by Glamour, about to drop her much anticipated album, about to do a GMA and 20/20 interview, and about to release her new video on primetime television and where is Chris Brown…ain’t no body talking about him or his video but the urban blogs..

Yes people she mentioned GOD!
And wow @ the comment about never being in love.
ANYWAYS:
JUST because Rihanna was abused does NOT mean she HAS to speak out! I’m pretty sure almost ALL of you who were abused didn’t go to some abuse conference or whatever and talk to people about what happened to YOU or talk to young girls about it so just because she’s a celebrity she has too? If you fall into that category dismiss yourself. You have no right to talk about Rihanna if you haven’t even done anything.
I’ve never been abused but I would have a very hard time talking about it if I did - which is why I’m not bashing Rihanna for not speaking out earlier! And first of all you can’t even say NINE months because OBVIOUSLY she couldn’t talk about the situation while the trial/case was still going on so technically it’s only been like what - 5 months?
And as much as you people come on here acting like you know everything about the entertainment world - you know absolutely nothing. For you to sit here and “get upset” with Rihanna for speaking out now is stupid and ridiculous because obviously her publicists and manger(s) had something to do with this. Yeah I think it’s kinda dumb but that’s just the way it works.
I swear more than half of you don’t think before you type.

It’s nice to see her actually open up in an interview, for once. But still don’t like the fact that she waited 9 months to do this.
Though we don’t blame her, we blame her people who have obviously told her that now is the best time…
sad.
Still she looks better in these pics than she has for some time, and it’s nice to see her smiling for once (she used to smile more with Chris Breezy, but can understand why she was sad for a long time.)
Not stannin just stating facts
Peace.

i think it is absolutely DISGUSTING what she is doing and that she has been chosen. she has done nothing since the accident, except walk around on the streets. hookers do that too, should they get awards? she didn’t have a new song as of interview time so how can they base that as a decision either? she has never spoken out on domestic violence so to use that as another claim is false for those that actually have. rihanna gets beat, everyone else talks about it but her. now her album comes out and NOW she wants to speak on it? that is disgusting, no better term for it. she awnts to speak out on domestic violence when her album drops, so she’s using it as advertising and to get sympathy buys. how do you expect anyone to look up to you?

Are they crazy??! All the joking aside 4real!!! Rihanna a voice for women??? What?
How is that and she took him back in Miami and ask the courts to remove the order that was placed on Chris Brown!!! Rihanna is full of it! Where were you 7 months ago walking around the streets with nothing on wearing outfits that we can see your boobs. What Rihanna has been a bad Rolemodel to women thats are in or has been in DV. Its so funny that she wanna speak about it now when her album is about to come out.Her song RR is nothing that makes women feel great to be alive, that song makes you wanna kill yourself. I just don’t understand how the world works today I mean Rihanna is not a voicefor women It’s to late for that. i can see if she was i n hiding and we haven’t seen her since what happen to her with Chris Brown and she was getting help , and now she wanna say something ,Well I can see that, thats ok.
But this girl walked around all of them months doing NOTHING and saying nothing. had all the time in the WORLD to speak out.

People need to get their facts straight, Rihanna is not an abused woman, period. She is using this now just to sell that sorry CD that is coming out and the sad part is you stans know it! So stop! trying to give sympathy to this no talented girl. This stuff is going to backfire on Rihanna if she dont stop! She went to 20/20 instead of going to Oprah/Oprah cause Oprah is not having this! Have you noticed when Rihanna comes out with something she always uses someone else to promote her stuff, never just letting her talent walk but she always have to ride off of something? She now is contradicting her self. She is so FAKE!

I have been telling you ignorant people who were attacking Rihanna when this incident first went down that most of America would support Rihanna.This is just the first step. Rihanna has strength! She kept silent while people were attacking her for being a victim of ABUSE! Well now she is speaking and she has a new CD that is about to come out! People love the strength and Grace of this young lady. Chis Brown is a monster and he is the one that has not shown that he has learned from what he has done. Yet most people (on this blog) supported Chris and his Violence. Well Rihanna I’m so happy that you are Woman of the Year!!!! Beyonce NEVER got that Title! Rihanna. SEASON is HERE! 11-23-09 The Wait is OVA!

I’m not understanding why no one can see her as being “Woman of the Year” especially after all that she has been through….I think she deserves it!!! You people are STUPID…it don’t matter if she is just coming out or came out nine months ago what matters most is that she is finally standing up and saying something whether it is for her album release or not….it takes time for hearts and things to heal before you can speak out to others, you have to take care of yourself first. So I’m sure that’s what she’s been doing. And people keep saying “What do she do”…She do a lot to be a multi-millionaire she got more money that all us Loopers put together and she’s been giving back to the community soooooooo……the girl is human and she is not perfect by any means but she has been through a lot and I think that is good for her…

Ok, first of all ita a “Glamour” magazine thats honoring her. Second, this woman has saved two lives from leukemia for her outstanding devotion to finding a donor match. Third, she is the victim and from experience watching my mom be beat for all her life; I can contest that no one likes their business out for the world to view. It took her time and during this time she watched her ex-boyfriend/abuser do a series of interviews, telling us he’s innocent, and then downplaying his fans. She decides to finally do one and she’s the bitch. If she does nothing she’s wrong. If she does something she’s wrong. This woman only cares about moving on and thats all we should care about as well.

Hello People! She has to talk about this now she has an CD to promote. Just as Chris Brown has a CD to promote. Some of you forget that Rhianna and Chris Brown are entertaniners. THIS IS HOW THEY MAKE A LIVING. They do interviews to keep their names in the press and when they have to promote…DUH they do interviews. Now we know why she is talking now. IT doesnt take a rocket scientist to see the correlation. You have to promote promote promote if you want to sell something.

WELL JUST LOOKING AT HOW IGNORANT THESE COMMENTS ARE I CAN SEE WHY SHE DIDN’T COME OUT AND SPEAK ABOUT THE SITUATION. LOOK HOW PEOPLE ACT WHEN SHE’S THE DAMN VICTIM IN THE SITUATION! SHE HAS THE RIGHT TO TAKE AS LONG AS SHE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT. HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE YOU TO TALK TO MILLIONS OF PEOPLE IF YOUR BF BEAT YOUR AZZ AND LEFT YOU IN THE STREET? EXACTLY HOW MUCH TIME SHOULD A PERSON TAKE TO GET OVER SOMETHING LIKE THAT? IF IT’S NEVER HAPPENED TO YOU THEN YOU NEED TO STFU. WHAT’S WORSE IS THESE SAME PEOPLE ARE ALL ON CHRIS BROWN’S NUTS SAYING “AWW LET’S SUPPORT HIM. HE HAS BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH”. REALLY? SO WHAT ABOUT RIHANNA? OH SHE HASN’T BEE THROUGH ANYTHING?

@ 56 Amen !!!!
Rihanna is not the first celeb to use an incident to her advantage. They all have so take a number and get in line.
You sorry good for nothing people kill me. You praise and worship the wrong ish. Here it is Rihanna is actually a human being and have human things happen to her and you people sit on your high horse and throw stones. At least she don’t pay people to cover up ish and walk around like little Miss perfect. Nor does she run away from it.
She was in a very public relationship Chris Brown, they are both very young. An incident happened and she had to deal with it while the whole world was watching. She had court orders to NOT say anything about what happened until it was resolved. Now that she chose to speak on it you people have a problem.
If your man pushed and shoved you around a couple of times would you want the whole world to know wether you feel it was right or wrong?
Give the girl a break !
The funny thing is you are the same people that agree with certain celebs keeping their fake relationships private. Oh, they are so in love and it should be “private”.
You people are STUPID !!!

I’m confused by her statement of never being in love but then she has been quoted by People.com as calling Chris her big 1st love in her 20/20 interview.
For someone 2 be a 1st love don’t u have to be in love w/ them. Bcuz if u r not in love w/ them isn’t it like loving ur best friend or neighbor etc.
I have NO problem w/ her speaking her piece on the incident but she has to be consist in her statements.

——-I have to say that I really get a kick out of these people and the nonsense that
——-they push. Very funny. The “domestic violence” issue between her and Chris
——-Brown was obviously fabricated to accrue her more power and prestige by
——-making her a sympathetic figure, while putting Brown through a ritual so that he
——-could be risen to a higher level. It is the same methodology used in the Kanye
——-West/Beyonce/Taylor Swift episode. The formula is to exalt the woman by
——-using a male as her foil by having him engage in some type of “misogyny”,
——-”chauvinism”, or outright stupidity. It’s a Hermetic principle which has the intent
——-of casting the woman in the role of the Queen of Heaven. These people in the
——-elite of entertainment are taught that there is no such thing as “bad publicity”.
——-They get off on misdirection and affecting the mood of the mass population.
——-Once they get the attention that they lust after, they become virtual “gods”,
——-meaning they are put in prominent positions to “inform” people how they should
——-think about world issues. The top photo is showing the keen-eyed viewer where
——-her allegiance lies, which is with the order. She is casting the downward
——-triangle of Isis and the left eye of Horus, which is consistent with her.

Dear Rihanna,
I think it is pretty lame that you are using your beating as a way to sell records. You have been walkin around the streets for 9 months trying get get photo ops and now all of a sudden that you have an album coming out, you want to talk about being a bettered women. I think that is very low and pathetic, and it seems to me that you have not learned much from your incident other than drama sells records. I feel sorry for you. I hope one day you grow up. Becuase thats not cool. I used to be a fan, but now, thats okay.

I love how she compared herself to Brittney Spears because that is who she truley is starting to remind me of, minus the record sales and success. Honestly I used to put Rihanna up there, and now she is another Lidsey Lohan, Paris Hilton, Brittney Spears. She lacks alot of class, which is further shown in her using the beating to sell records. WOW rihanna, you are so lame for that. NO I will not be buying your record, especially after you released 3 bad singles.

@ Just me
Do you know what abused women put up with? Do you know that they often still forgive and think it’s love when a man abuses them? I suggest you look into the subject. Just because Rihanna went to Miami to see Chris does not mean anything and it sure does not mean she forgave Chris. Most people don’t even know what domestic abuse is. Rihanna is the victim here and there is nothing wrong with when she wants to speak it’s still Chris’ actions that caused this entire mess. Chris’ actions were criminal. Nothing Rihanna did was wrong here. Chris is the MAN he is not supposed to hit a woman period. And look at the level of his attack. Biting, punching, pushing from a moving car. Come on now. It’s fine to be critical of Rihanna’s music if you don’t like it but let’s not be trivial about domestic abuse.

@ NEON
IS SHE WITH HIM NOW? OK THEN STFU. SHE LET HIM GO SO YOU CAN’T KEEP THROWING THAT AROUND LIKE THEY ARE ENGAGED RIGHT NOW OR SOMETHING. CHRIS IS NOT ALL THAT FYI. HE IS JUST ANOTHER MAN AND I’M QUITE SURE RIHANNA CAN DO MUCH BETTER.

I don’t like the way they all work together to gang up on the public. Who or what old ass lady (Diane) would think that walikng around naked is fashion. You know if her daughter tried to wear a Rihanna look, Rihanna would be banned from the country.Miss me with the fake trying to sell records and get your cut Diane shish. Not to mention after the accusations now she want to mention GOD. Miss me again with the fakeness.

First off no one is “hating” on Rihanna I just see people giving their opinion. Dont bash the people that feel different about the situation then some of you Rihanna fans may feel. I don’t dislike Rihanna nor Chris however I do damn sure suspect those two are still seeing each other behind close doors. TRUST ME dont think for one second that Rihanna does not want Chris! She is putting on a front for the media. Chris took responsibility for the whole situation when really Rihanna is just as much responsible as he is that’s why she not saying much and keeping quite. I don’t understand why that’s so hard for people to see. I dont care what anyone says she still wants to be with Chris plain and simple.

@ CRACKISWACK
OBVIOUSLY YOU HAVE BEEN SUCKING ON A CRACK PIPE OF YOUR OWN IF YOU THINK YOU CAN TELL RIHANNA WHEN TO SPEAK OUT. THERE ARE STILL MILLIONS OF WOMEN GETTING BEATEN AND KILLED BY THEIR BOYFRIENDS, HUSBANDS AND BABY DADDIES EVERY DAY. RIHANNA SPEAKING OUT WILL HELP TO SAVE LIVES REGARDLESS OF THE REASON SHE IS DOING IT. THANK YOU RIHANNA FOR USING YOUR CELEBRITY STATUS TO HELP SHINE A LIGHT ON THIS VERY SERIOUS SITUATION.

I think it’s great that Rihanna has been selected Woman of The YEAR.
As a 17 year old woman I have learned so much from this situation. This is why people are so supportive of Rihanna. She has been strong! I don’t think any female on this cite can imagine what that attack was like. The pictures only tell part of this attack-the physical damage. This girl had to endure public humiliation and emotional betrayal and she still showed her face in public. Do you think it was easy for her to deal with this?? Just because you see her going out that does not mean you understand her emotional state. It SICKENS me to read some of the ignorance on this blog aimed at Rihanna. It’s fine if you like Chris Brown (or you have a crush on him) and you are just being “forgiving” of what he did because you DON’T understand domestic abuse or what Chris really did. But the second any female saw those pictures Chris Brown should have been seen EXACTLY as he IS as a CRIMINAL who has a serious problem. Rihanna could have been ANY of us women, beaten and thrown from a car by a man we “loved”. This is what I don’t understand how some girls on here can continue to attack the victim. People need to stop being silly.
I understand 100% if people don’t all like her music but let’s NEVER make light of domestic abuse. And let’s not pretend like Chris Brown did nothing wrong. Glamour Magazine has bestowed a great honor on Rihanna and we as women and as human beings need to be very supportive of this. Rihanna became the face of Domestic Abuse and it was not anything she wanted to become. But this is a great thing and let’s not mix up musical preferences over domestic abuse. Rihanna has a lot of strength and I’m very proud of her and it’s GREAT to see other people agree with me!

I still beleive they abused each other but on the other hand mabey CB was an abuser.So I agree with myself to stop saying Rihanna is as guilty as Chris. The pictures didn’t say to much to me. Rihanna is light skin and I am pretty sure if you pinch her she would bruise. I have seen many black eyes and I have NEVER seen a black eye or a bruised face clear up that fast. The pictures not doing it for me that chick had a few bruises on her light skin. He had no right to hit Rihanna at the same time Rihanna has no right to hit him!!!

Omg why does everyone think Rihanna still wants him? lol! Have you ever broken up with a guy then looked back and said “wtf was I thinking?” Ok then Rihanna is probably saying the same thing about Chris. I have seen better looking dudes at the subway station. Chris is not even sexy. His face is about a 6 out of 10 and the body is about a 5 out of 10. The women on this site need to get out more often if you think Chris Brown is the finest thing that Rihanna could pull! lmao!
