LOL...WOW!! @SASHAY BEST COMMENT IN THIS ENTIRE THREAD! THIS WHOLE CHRIS & RIHANNA CIRCUS IS SENSATIONALISM AT ITS BEST!! IF U HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF HOW THIS INDUSTRY WORKS INTERNALLY, YOU'D BE SHOCKED & PROBABLY A LITTLE PISSED & FEELING "PLAYED..." RIHANNA HAD THAT VERY PERSONAL, OPEN AND TRANSPARENT DIALOGUE WITH OPRAH & WENT DEEPER WITHIN BY SHARING WITH OPRAH ABOUT THE TIME IT TOOK TO GET TO THIS POINT WHERE SHE WAS NO LONGER IN LOVE WITH CHRIS BROWN AND COULD FINALLY ACHIEVE A CERTAIN LEVEL OF FRIENDSHIP SINCE SHE'D FORGIVEN HIM BUT HADN'T FORGOTTEN. I SUPPOSE SHE PRETTY MUCH LIED IN PARTS OF HER INTERVIEW WHEN OPRAH REPEATEDLY ASKED THESE BOLD, NO GRAY AREA, STRAIGHT UP QUESTIONS ABOUT THE HOWS & WHYS AND IFS DIRECTLY RELATED TO THAT NO EXCUSES ALLOWED TOXIC RELATIONSHIP THAT SHE WAS IN WITH CHRIS BROWN. RIHANNA EVEN ADMITTED THAT THE ABSENCE OF HER FATHER IN HER LIFE PLAYED A MAJOR PART IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS SHE'D COME TO GRIPS WITH. AND BY RECONNECTING WITH HER ESTRANGED FATHER THAT SHE'D STATED WAS AT THE CORE OF WHY SHE WAS ALLOWING HERSELF TO ACCEPT ALL OF THE EMOTIONAL AND ULTIMATELY PHYSICAL ABUSE SHE'D ACCEPTED FROM CHRIS BROWN, IT HAD OPENED HER EYES AND ASSISTED IN HEALING & BEING ABLE TO MOVE ON WITH HER LIFE . SHE WAS IN A GOOD PLACE & WAS CHOOSING NOT TO DATE AND ALTHOUGH SHE WAS SOLELY FOCUSED ON LOVING HERSELF AND HER CAREER AT THAT POINT IN HER LIFE, SHE WOULD WANT TO MARRY A MAN THAT HONORS & CHERISHES HER DOWN THE ROAD SOMEWHERE WHEN SHE'S MUCH OLDER AND MORE MATURE AND WOULD BE READY TO HANDLE & ACHIEVE A HEALTHY MARRIAGE AND MOTHERHOOD AS WELL. END OF INTERVIEW..... TWO WEEKS LATER RE-ENTERS CHRIS BROWN AND ALL OF THE MEDIA HEADLINES...A FEEDING FRENZY WITH NO APPARENT END IN SITE. WTH PPL
