Watch: Chris Brown’s 20/20 Interview

Published: Friday 4th Dec 2009 by Sam

For those who missed it, check out Chris Brown‘s much hyped interview on ABC’s 20/20 which finished airing a few moments ago. The Robin Roberts fronted interview was underwhelming to say the least (he spoke on nothing new!) I say he should have just performed on Good Morning America as planned (a gig which was cancelled in favour of yet another interview). Sigh.

He’s lucky his album (‘Graffiti’) is actually good, and that he talented enough to sell it through performance etc. I say this because I can’t see how all these interviews are doing what I’m sure his team are intending they do – garner sympathy and show remorse. Instead, I feel it’s starting to have an adverse effect. Here’s hoping the focus is kept on the music now. The ‘incident’ won’t fade if its continually prodded at (yet never elaborated on). It’s time to move on…

      you alive lol?

  2. Craver December 4, 2009

    I agree. Really though, all this “We’re going to talk about it, BUT OH WAIT NO WE AREN’T GONNA TALK ABOUT IT” is hurting both of them. Chris has absolutely nothing to gain from half-assing interviews and it’s annoying the considerably lower amount of fans he has left. Rihanna, although I can understand why she waited to get her personal life back on track, is also hurting because people are saying she’s only just now talking about it so freely for promo. Both of them either need to speak on it 100% no holding back, or drop it completely from here on. It’s far too tired at this point. Hell it’s been tired.

    THIS CHICK LIED AND SAID SHE DIDN’T HEAR THE SONG!

    I WONDER WHAT ELSE SHE LIED ABOUT.

  4. Mississippi Scarlet December 4, 2009

    Dead @ “She heard the song”….but there was nothing new about the interview..

  5. Raychel December 4, 2009

    Okay so one person is saying they heard the song and another is saying they didnt. WTF??? rihanna and chris brown ugh…

  6. Its Me Again December 4, 2009

    I don’t know… maybe I’m biased because I don’t particularly respect her as a performer…but after hearing about her lying about hearing “changed man” with a straight face…

    On second thought, I’m not gonna say any more.

  7. Dani December 4, 2009

    Screw her lying about a song. The picture did not lie even if she did. These interviews have to stop, seriously.

  8. Mr.727 December 4, 2009

    This interview didn’t convince me of his innocence!! I just don’t see the maturity in his spirit!!!

    I give up trying to make morality shine forth on this fourm!!!!!

    Chris Brown our new music God

    Praise be to Chris Brown!!

  9. San December 4, 2009

    On Chris: As expected he didnt say Sh- about anything

    On the Supposed Lie: Not tryin to make too much sense of it cause if she lied she lied but maybe she was saying she hadnt heard Crawl…

    On All these DAMN interviews: This is all getting to be so elementary, grow up kids.

  10. nikki December 4, 2009

    this interview was quick but i like it i’m glad he didn’t talk about what happen i’m tried of it and to be honest i hope abc know they just boost crawl up for those who didn’t see the video well now a whole different group range has lol #justsayin oh well he’s far from falling now

  11. Jermaine Tindell December 4, 2009

    CHRIS IS FULL OF SH*T… I SAY THIS BECAUSE HE CLEARLY TALKED SHYT ABOUT HIS OWN PR… PEOPLE WHO ARE EMPLOYED BY HIM.

    HE WANTS TO SHIFT BLAME TO ANYBODY ELSE OTHER THAN BEING A MAN, ADMIT WHAT U DID, THEN MOVE ON & STOP BRINGING THE SHYT UP!!!!

    AS FOR RIHANNA, IF THE GIRL SAID SHE DIDN’T LISTEN TO HIS “OH, I’M SORRY I BEAT DOWN LIKE A MAN, HONEY!!” SONG.. THEN SHE DIDN’T LISTEN TO IT. HEARING & LISTENING ARE 2 DIFFERENT THINGS!

  12. Jermaine Tindell December 4, 2009

    I MENT… CHRIS LAME ASS…. “OH, I’M SORRY I BEAT U DOWN LIKE WAS A MAN, HONEY” SONG!!LOL

  13. Renz G December 4, 2009

    She did lie, and heard the song. Because a few days after the interview aired she said she never turns down the radio when she hears his new music, and that she actually likes his songs. I doubt he would say he played it for her if he didn’t

  14. RIHANNA IS A LIAR AND NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED! December 5, 2009

    There is NO EXCUSE for lying at ALL in this situation and trying to mislead the public! Its NEVER okay to lie about sometjing this serious esepcially when its affecting peoples LIVES like she said.She was DEAD WRONG for lying and I have NO SYMPATHY for her. Im hear for the music. She is NO VICTIM and she is no role model. She is simply a model with a microphone!Another thing…If she could so EASILY lie about something as simple as rather or not she heard that song to protect her image just IMAGINE how much other stuff in that interview was a lie! She is a cold blodded liar and even if chris brown beat her near death its no reason to LIE about this to gain sympathy, or to gain a better image. Shes just as wrong as he is.At least Chris Brown is accepting and dealing with the fact he has a problem. Shes LYING and doing nothing but walking around taking pictures! PATHETIC!I HAVE THREE WORDS FOR YOU… “LISA LEFTEYE LOPEZ”Do you remember that? When Andre Rison beat her uo and she burned down his house? She went through a terrible domestic violence situation publically an had to go to jail, but it didnt hurt her career, it HELPED! Why? Because she was brutally honest about her problems. She told the whole truth. She didnt rehearse her interview then dress up like “Sharon Stone” and the public respected her and wished her well the group became BIGGER! Rihanna’s career is TANKING and its all KARMA because she LIED! She can keep convincing herself non-stop that what she did was right because she wants to be the face of DM and “help young girls”, but she cant help them by lying! Shes not trying to help or save anything when she lies, but her career, reputation and endorcement deals. Bottom Line…Stop lettin this chick blow smoke u yall a**!

  15. RIHANNA IS A LIAR AND NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED! December 5, 2009

    Chris Brown Isnt Protecting Her By Keeping Quiet…
    ———————–

    He’s keeping quiet cause there is NOTHING he can say that can fix what he did! The less he says, the better!

    Let me explain..

    If he did come out and say, Rihanna did this to me and that. You people are gonna get on the blogs and go.

    “So it dont matter what she did, hes trying to make an excuse for beating her”

    He’s in a lose-lose situation. Cause nothing at all justifys him beating her to the extint he did. So he cant say anything, but im sorry. If he said more, or anything else you people are going to pick it apart, the less the better.

    Rihanna and her pr team. KNOW THAT! Thats the reason WHY they dressed her up like Sharon Stone so she could sit in their and flat out lie! You people are NOT making the connection.

    Remember..

    In the “Sharon Stone Film Basic Instinct” (Rihanna was mimikcking that scene in her interview, for the way she was dressed all the way down to how she was sitting in the seat!) Sharon Stone was LYING about not killing her husband. She was blufffing them, but she KNEW they couldnt prove it or stop it cause she was the widow.

    Rihanna was channeling that. She was LYING about what happened between her and Chris Brown to help maintain her wholesome image. It makes HER look better to say “he blacked out and jumped on me and beat me” to make him look like a maniac and her like a complete victim with no problem.

    If she would have admitted to being violent with him first, or in the past, or in past relationships it would have TAINTED her image. Chris Brown had to be the only aggressor. She wouldnt admit her part! Her people told her not to to maintain her image. She wasnt going to accept equal fault.And thats not because she cares about DM and wants to “help young girls” its cause she wants to maintain her image.

    She knows chris brown cant go crazy and rebuttle like “oh…that b*tch lying, she hit me first, she gave me h*****, she did this and that, we were drunk ect ect… cause hes underaged, and he would have looked like hes trying to justify or defend himself and people woild get mad at him for that cause he cant justify what he did. AT ALL.

    Rihanna and her people KNEW THAT and played that card and its DIRTY AND ROTTEN and I dont respect her. As a victim of DM, you people on here saying “i hope no one ever beats you guys” blah blah blah people are jealous of rihanna… no! I am a SURVIVOR of DM. Its serious and we need serious people!

    Not liars and opportunist! Rihanna has serious problems with anger and shes a liar and a fraud and she needs to eb exposed! She doesnt not inspire, represent or speak for women like me! SHES A FRAUD and she needs to be exposed!

  16. RIHANNA IS A LIAR AND NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED! December 5, 2009

    Jermaine Tindle…

    You sound STUPID!

    When has Chris Brown EVER blaimed Rihanna for what he did? He NEVER pointed the finger at her.He has ALWAYS admitted his guilt! He has said sorry countless times and is getting help!

    How is he not being a man and owning up to what he did?

    Wow…You sound beyond ridiculous! He has done NOTHING but take ownership! Tthe only person who HASNT is RIHANNA!

    You MUST be a big fan of hers? Cause even if you HATE chris for what he did, your comment doesnt make sense on so many levels!

    He has NEVER said anything BAD about rihanna publically.
    He has admitted his guilt and aologized several times to the point where its annoying!
    Hes a convicted felon, plead guilty and is being punished and mentally treated for what he did.

    How is he not being a man and owing up to what he did?

    STFU

    OWNED! NEXT—->

  17. RIHANNA IS A LIAR AND NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED! December 5, 2009

    PEOPLE PEOPLE PEOPLE…
    ——————————————

    He did NOT ask the interview to ASK him if she lied about hearing the song, or to ask him about rather or not she heard the song. HE JUST ANSWERED THE QUESTION HONESTLY!

    Why are you mad at him for telling you she DID hear the song? Hes not LYING on her, or trying to make himself look better, because he CANT do that! If he wanted to try to do that he WOULD tell yall the whole story! HES NOT! He just speaking on it for the last time and responding to HER interview.Its nothing he can say to make himself look better! The less he says, they better! He knows that! Hes not going into detail! He just answered the question, she DID hear the song!

    Why is he wrong, and how is that him not owning up to what he did?

    See…Thats the EXACT REASON he wont tell us his side! Thats the exact reason, cause he CAN do that just to satisfy peoples curiousity, but then your gonna get on here and say…

    “Oh…hes trying to make excuses for what he did, so he still wrong…” blah blah blah. Hes KNOWS hes dead wrong and theres nothing he can say!

    What yall Rihanna fans arent realizing is this…

    The point is, if she LIED about that. IMAGINE how much more of that was rehearsed and a lie. She blatantly LIED with a straight face! The whole interview was loaded with lies. This alone what hes telling you is enough proof that that interview was a LIE.

    But…

    IT DOESNT MATTER! HE WAS DEAD WRONG! THERE IS NOTHING SHE CAN SAY, OR HE CAN SAY TO FIX THAT! THERE IS NO EXCUSE. IT DOESNT MATTER WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IN THAT CAR, FOR HIM TO BEAT HER TO THAT EXTREME IS UNACCEPTABLE! PERIOD! HE KNOWS THAT! THATS WHY HES NOT AND CANT DEFEND HIMSELF FROM HER LIES…

    YOU SEE…RIHANNA IS LYING AND NOT ADMITTING TO BEING A VIOLENT PERSON BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO MAINTAIN HER IMAGE. IF SHE MAKES IT SEEM LIKE HE BLACKED OUT AND SHE NEVER HIT HIM AND ITSNT VIOLENT AND HES A PSYCHO, IT MAKES HER LOOK BETTER.

    IF SHE ADMITS TO BEING VIOLENT IT RUINS HER WHOLSOME IMAGE. SHES NOT TRYING TO HEL YOUNG GIRLS SHE TRYING TO SAVE HER INDORCEMENT DEAL WITH COVER GIRL AND THAT IS WRONG!

    NO ONE IS EXCUSING CHRIS BROWN…HES WRONG WRONG WRONG! BUT HE HAS ADMITTED TO HAVING A PROBLEM IS CURRENT SEEKING HELP AND HAS APOLOGIZED! WHAT MORE CAN HE DO?

    THE ONLY PERSON HERE WHO HASNT BEEN HONEST AND ADMITTED TO HAVING A PROBLEM IS RIHANNA. AND THATS NOT COOL!

  18. Its Me Again December 5, 2009

    Excerpts from a Times Online interview with Chris Brown:

    ______

    “Domestic violence is totally wrong whatever the circumstances, no exceptions,” he tells me. “But a lot of people think it’s a one-sided issue, ie, only men on women. Let’s give an example… I’m not saying verbatim it’s what happened, but if a woman hits her man it’s looked on as if it’s him who’s not being macho. It’s kind of laughed at, like [he imitates a mocking male voice], ‘Ha-ha, your girl beat you up! Not much of a man, are you?’ But if a man, let’s say, were to defend himself or to use force back, then he’s wrong – and in every sense he is wrong, of course, because there are choices that you make. It’s always a mutual situation though. I feel if force is being used by both of them, then both are wrong.

    ______

    With this in mind, I ask about Rihanna’s decision, post-reconciliation, finally to end their relationship for good, citing her responsibilities as a role model (she told Sawyer she feared that, by taking up with Brown again, she might send the wrong message to other women dealing with abusive partners). “I don’t know how true that was,” he says, shaking his head slowly before coming close to saying he believes her eventual decision to dump him was a career-conscious PR move, that she feared association with him was damaging her image.
    “All I can think is, ‘OK, if that’s how she felt…’ But I do know also that this is a business and people will do whatever it takes. I’m not saying her, but people will do whatever it takes to get to the top and win people back over.”

    _______

    Both of them are mad shady to me.

    We all know what Chris did, and it is completely inexcusable. But we also have hints that Rihanna is not the most honest person in the world and that she may have done something too, the difference is she’s doing and saying everything in her power to hide it and not own up to it to protect her career and come out an unblemished hero.

    I honestly was horrified at the Chris Brown defenders initially because as a victim of DV myself i thought that die-hard fan mentality was nauseating. I still do. Chris’ actions are indefensible… but perhaps they were right about Rihanna playing role… She has admitted to getting into physical fights with her brothers and breaking a glass bottle on one of their heads….

    Things that make you go hmmm…

  19. D-enda December 5, 2009

    b**** “rihanna is a liar”: THAT S*** IS TOO DAMN LONG TO READ!!! i don’t give a damn bout your posts like I do with CB’s album

  20. wtf December 5, 2009

    LML @ rent..ok had to say that from the prophet..think its funny..anyways i always agree with some of your views but in this case you are wrong..

    ok let me school you sweetie…his GMA gig was not cancelled in favour for another interview..this was supposed to be aired in the morning after which he would perform on GMA…his performance was cancelled due to the adam thing and they had to find a spot for it hence 20/20 and why it was short…unfortunately as part of the politics an interview is part of the deal if he wants to perform..its was not his choice but for him to go mainstream he had to do it…a little research would have helped..

    now onto the effects of it..not only was this a primetime/semi primetime spot on mainstream media, he also got to promo his track..about 9 mill watched that who btw dnt follow blogs and the so called nagging comments about him talking..he actually reached a more mature audience in a short time which was good..just to show you the effects, this one woman called bonnief (white woman) who is the head of some hollywood mag show who i follow and hated chris browns gut for the first time actually said he came across humbled and could feel that he trully loved rihanna…sweetie the effects of the 10 min clip were great…it reached the right people he and never been able to reach..POW!!!!

    ps, he will be next on GMA 2010 i hear..so talk about it not working!!!

  21. rightround(U.S.A pride!) December 5, 2009

    Honestly these interviews are NOT helping chris at all. He never says anything different, just the same ol bull. Although i do believe he’s sorry and he doesn’t deserve to be backlisted by the media, he should just keep performing and doing his. Forget about the controversy!

  22. rightround(U.S.A pride!) December 5, 2009

    doing his thing*

  23. aiight!!! December 5, 2009

    ok, rihanna has been proven time & time again 2 b a huge liar. she just needs 2 keep her stupid mouth shut, she is constantly running all over the dam place and she digs a deeper hole 4 herself everytime she opens her frikkin mouth. i’m sick of Chris apologizing 2 us. NO MORE APOLOGIES PLEASE!!!!! How come when white people do yhis tyhey never have 2 apologize at all? It just goes away. me & my kids will never like her bcuz she is a S*** industry puppet with not enuff talent which is being forced upon us. I only care about what is real in this world. by the way, wtf is her new “military crap “video about? I hope it is not 2 glamourize the recent afghanastan situation 2 our children. hmmmmmmm.

  24. alrightmisschrissy December 5, 2009

    He has a very good pr and marketing team, they market him as being a young boy and a changed man, even in the trailer (youtube the graffiti trailer) they are marketing him as a young boy who is innocent and we should feel sorry for all the criticsm he got and as a result get his album on monday or tuesday (if rihanna releasing an album 2 weeks before the album is publicity stunt…. WHAT THE HELL IS THIS LOL!) CB stans drive me crazy with their logic, this originally was supposed to be a couple of days after the album, and a cb stan said well its after the album release so its not a publicity stunt….. hahahaha

  25. Becky December 5, 2009

    Rhianna is a liar. What is left out is the fact that she popped him while he was driving, and Chris should have stopped the car and ran like Tiger Woods instead of losing control. Chris is not the only person to go through domestic violence…unfortunately, it is very common.

  26. Luis December 5, 2009

    stop making excuses people. let’s all move on! geez!

  27. INTERVIEW WAS PROMOTIONAL PIECE December 5, 2009

    20/20 wasn’t stupid. They couldn’t say we’re airing Chris Brown’s video Crawl, and neither could they say “Chris is here to promote his new cd.” It was a sneaky way for them to do this.

    GOOD JOB for Chris Brown because the song won many people over. Chris isn’t innocent, he accepted a guilty plea and is serving out his sentence. LEAVE HIM ALONE. LET HIM BE.

    GET OVER IT. You can’t shame his supporters to death.

  28. trucie December 5, 2009

    i didn’t care to watch the interview. I mean who has time to be sitting thru a bunch of uh’s and um’s and i don’t know’s. the boy is illerate and needs to go back to grammer school. that being said, his album is really good and i will go out and support just like i did with Ms. Fenty. I try to focus more on the music than the artist’s lives. I mean isn’t that what this whole thing is about. Chris needs to shut up and dance from here on out. i don’t want to hear anymore about it.

  29. robyn December 5, 2009

    I thought Chris came across well, much better than his other interviews. The new thing that came out is tha Rihanna lied and like my grandma used to say, ‘if you lie in small things, u will lie in big things’ so I’m not so sure that Rihanna has been telling allthe truth although Chris is still wrong for hurting her.

    I think as long as Chris stays on the straight path, doesn’t violate his probation, keep to the music, he will be fine.

    Rihanna’s promo grind isn’t paying off so much, she will fall out of the top 10 and sell less than 60k albums 2 wks out, hmmmm

  30. Monica December 5, 2009

    This was a very pointless interview. I guess he just wanted to expose the fact that Rih’s a liar.

  31. HEALTHY BLACK QUEENS December 5, 2009

    “Screw her lying about a song. The picture did not lie even if she did. These interviews have to stop, seriously.”

    Let the choir say AMEN!

  32. maskina December 5, 2009

    how you all know she’s the one lying and not him. Its his word against hers, He said she heard it, she said she didn’t. He could be the one lying you know.

  33. Dani December 5, 2009

    @ Maskina, I thought I was the only one who considered that. But are we seriously comparing lying about a song to a felony assault in which he plead guilty to? He does not need fans to defend him or justify his actions when he’s been accepting responsibility for them. The best way for them to move on is to stop talking about it (publicly anyway).

  34. smartee December 5, 2009

    I really don’t understand why people are still mad at Chris. I can understand not being a fan of his music or not caring for him, because you don’t care for his personality, but people really need to get over this sh**! I am sick and tired of people bashing this young man. He made a mistake… so what? Every single person makes a mistake. It’s not like he continued to whoop her a**. His mom even said that he was never a violent person before. I don’t understand why people are so ignorant to the fact that he’s never been in serious trouble before. They don’t want to even take that into consideration when judging his character. He gets a pass from me because he was never a violent person before, and he just lost his cool… which is something the majority of humans do at some point in their life. I believe Rihanna provoked him and probably yelled in his face and he just got tired of it and hit her and she tried to hit back. Point blank, we weren’t there, the media was DEAD WRONG for publishing this story… it was no ones business and shouldn’t got out. Rihanna’s over it, her family’s over it, Ne-Yo’s over it, Will Smith called him and talked to him about it…. These people are millionaires and have more important lives and are over it. So why are worthless, spiteful people on blogs still on it. Get over it, you act like it happened to you!

  35. melzy December 5, 2009

    I loved this interview…. but my girl rihanna mmmmh its bad for a girl to lie like that on TV I will support chris 100%

    Go chris Go

  36. DuMMies December 5, 2009

    BooHoo..Chris hit Rihanna..and Chris Brown Scum..smh..i dont get why this boy gets so much flack for a mistake he made..Its funny how people say “he’s a woman beater” when he whooped her ass once..ya’ll know nothing about his situation..only they do..hes not worried about u losers that dislike him so much..that ya’ll wake up without taking a shower..just to get on the computer and say “I Hate Chris Brown”..u Rihanna stans really need a life..he made a mistake and what he did was wrong..we get it..”Violence is a Terrible Crime”..but how can ya’ll put him in the same category as men that repeatedly assault women..when he’s not even like that..his mother that knew him all his life n today..even said he isnt a violent person..S*** ya’ll dont even know if Chris Brown been getting ass beat by R******..and just too proud to admit to it..cuz in case u morons havent realized it..Men Get tHey ass Beat By FEMALES too..its time to get over it..Chris moved on..hes doing his fan concerts..donating money to charities like best buddies and domestic violence shelters..and getting counseling..R****** moved on and has somehow turned into a s**-maniac w****..showing her n****** and s***..setting bad examples for lil girls..that mostly buy her junk..and its time for the public to move on..the public dwells too much on negativity..mans thats straight up bad chi yo..bad Karma..smh@ having so much hate for someone that did nothing to u personally..perplexes me..people getting ulcers..high blood pressure..and veins in the forehead..over a situation that has nothing to do with them..Straight Up Lames Yo

  37. SHANIQUA December 5, 2009

    I THINK RIHANNA ISZ SUCH A LIER..!!! ON HER INTERVIEW SHE SAID SHE DID NOT HEAR THA SONG BUT CHRIS SAID HE PLAYED IT FOR HER A MONTH AFTER THE INCIDENT..!!! I AM A BIG FAN OF CHRISTOPHER MAURICE BROWN. I THINK IT WOULD BE BEST IF HEM && RIHANNA GO THERE SEPARATE WAYSZ. I LOVE YU CHRIS BROWN 😀

  38. December 6, 2009

    Dear Chris Brown stans,

    He doesn’t give a f*** about you. He just wants your money. He will never have s** with you. You don’t need to defend his man-child ass tooth and nail. It’s pitiful to see presumedly young females trashing another young female for no reason than she’s the ex of someone they like and because they don’t like her music. When your mother, sister, cousin, or best girl friend goes through this situation, I hope there’s a chorus of people in the background saying the type of stuff you’re saying about Rihanna. I’m not a fan of her OR Chris, but damn, get off the girl’s back. You say we don’t know the full situation; were y’all tweenie boppers in the car that night? You bffs with Chris now? NOBODY but those in their inner circle truly knows what happened that night.

    Xoxo

  39. missy December 6, 2009

    all im saying is dat im not taking anysides cause when d incident happen was only chris n rihanna was there so watever da media n anybody else is saying is assumptions…..they both cud b lieing n dey both cud b telling d truth yet again was only d 2 of dem in da car…n after rihanna lied about hearing da song im having second thoughts of wat else she lied about…so everybody need 2 drop it let those 2 move on wit their lives cause thats their business cause after all da shyt happen didnt they caught them 2gether,exactly!!!!!!!!! so da media n everybody is just waiting 4 another celeb 2 do sum stupid den dey gon b on dem n drop chris n rihanna shyt….

  40. DuMMies December 6, 2009

    yeah..liked they waited for Tiger Woods to mess and now everybody is all over him..Honestly what goes on in other peoples lives should concern anyone period..especially when it doesnt influence u personally..its just like when ur neighbors are having problems and everyone knows about it in the neighborhood..why are u commenting on it..it has nothing to do with u

  41. DuMMies December 6, 2009

    shouldnt**

  42. Reason December 6, 2009

    I am NOT by any means a Chris Brown fan. Nor am I a Rihanna fan. I have never really liked Chris Brown’s music until now. This incident has released a man. When he sings now it is from the heart. He is a performer and so is she. They both stand to gain from being interviewd on 20/20, a creditable show.

    I believe that Chris is telling the truth about her hearing the song. She was, also, kinda hesitant when she was asked did she hear the song, That hesitence leads me to think that she lied. She heard the song either she did not expect for the interviewer to ask that question or if she did not have enough time to dilberated on what she would say and by the time she responded to the question it was to late to retract what she said.

    I agree with one of the other comments made that she probably hit him first when she went through that phone and found that number she was furious! Rihanna, knew Chris’ past and she was angry with him and that is probably why those pictures of her face got out the way that they did. In the interview she said that “It doesn’t matter IF I did hit him, not saying that I did, that does not give him the right to beat me like that! ” This leads me to think that she did hit him first.

    I think that Chris is owning up to his part in this affair. He is protecting her by listening to his publicist and not saying anything negative about Rihanna and maintaining her as the victim. Because if he does contradict anything that she has said in the order of events it will only make him look like a coward and a woman beater.

    I hope that Rihanna is seeking counseling she also needs to learn how to deal with this situation andpossible future ones like it.

    NO, she did not ask to be beaten but she needs to own up to the part that she played in getting beat. This woman is from a culture that does not take crap like that and are quick tempered!

    Rihanna needs to realize that just because she left Chris and she feels that she is this icon that might have saved one person’s life by giving up her own happiness they could have resolved this privately. They should have sought out another way to reconcil this situation. However, they too young to settle down with just one another so it is probably best that they separate for now!

    I predict that Chris and Rihanna will be back together in six years and they will probably make another single together. If Rihanna wanted to she could have stayed with Chris and worked things out they could have went into couples counseling. This would have been a great reality show.

  43. Sonja December 6, 2009

    We get involved in celebraties personal lives to much. What happened between them is their business and it is not for us to judge. We are so judgemental about every aspect of their lives that we forget that they are human. How would you like for all of you transgression to be publicly displayed? Have you ever did something that you truely regreted and want to be forgiven for? As far as what happened in that car we still will never know. I am not say domestic violence is right but it is a two way street. Why aren’t they bringing Tiger Wood’s wife up on charges for domestic violence? Or the many other celebraties who have had fights? If every time a celebraties does something wrong and you decide to discontinue listening or boycotting them, we would be listening to static on the radio. He is an entertainer to us and that is all he is required to provide us. Chris the entertainer and Chris the boyfriend are two different entities. One’s public and one’s private and the incident began with them and it should end with them. Chris, I will continue to be a fan of your music and I believe everyone can change and deserves a second chance. I loved your concert in Orlando, FL.

    @ DUMMIES….I cosign 100%…
    all the rihanna’s stans on here wo are bashing chris, act like they all perfect, like they never made a mistake..they act like they were the ones chris give a beat down to.
    the ironic thing is the ones that are calling people HATERS, self hate b******, ect for not liking rihanna, are the first one throwing stones at chris, for making 1 mistake.
    am not a stan of any of them, at the same time i think we should focus on the real men and women who are actually getting their ass beat on the regular.
    until i see evidence in my hand , i still say it was a lover quarel that got out of hand.

    First, just let me say that as a mature Chris Brown fan, I acknowledge his actions in the incident as being “inexcusable” however, I support him for standing up from day one and wanting to accept blame and own up to what he did. He has NEVER denied the role he played in the events that transpired that night and he has apologized more than he needs to at this point. What many of you seem to forget is that for both individuals this is business, they have HUGE companies backing them(JIVE/ Def Jam) who are not going to lose any more money than they need to and thus regardless will SELL OUt their artist to prevent this. I don’t believe for a minute that either Chris or Rihanna wanted to speak on the incident of that night but because of industry heads were forced into it. For Chris, this continuation of interviews, that yes even I am over, is mandatory for him to be able to go on their shows in the future and to receive support from them. It’s not that he just wants to talk about it, but he has to talk about it. I respect the fact that he is also sticking to what he stated in the beginning that ” all the details of that night should remain pivate”. For those who last week were so quick to “assume” ” Oh, he’s going to blow the whistle on her and tell it all” shame on you because then what would that say about him- that he is a liar and only doing it to get back at her for what she said, NO instead he’s being the bigger person and saying ” I’m sticking to what I said and not saying anything new” and showing himself to really be moving forward and being a better person. “applause” for Chris. Not many young, black men would be able to handle a similiar situation with as much maturity and strength as he has shown without calling the female out of name and putting all details out there for people to laugh and joke over. I as a fan don’t need to know all that. Keep it moving and lets support these 2 YOUNG people who got caught up in a horrible situation and are now being made to play it out in front of the whole world. Actions speak louder than words and we all know Ri is holding back on info. but at this point who cares, let karma handle it. Chris is standing up for DV and supporting the cause.
    *side note- I have purchased her CD to show support b/c noone deserves what she went through and I will be purchasing Chris’ CD for xmas gifts
    God Bless and Judge Them both, not man

    the person that wrote the rihanna needs 2 be exposed thing has some of the same views i have because if he said more then that would take the focus off wat is the main objective THE MUSIC!!!!! that is the tru thing that should matter because if u are going to critique something do it to the music. honestly i believe that if it was not chris brown and rihanna this whole thing would not have been blown up as big but that is just me i guess….
