Rihanna Diane Sawyer Interview GMA 20/20 Photos

Singer Rihanna confessed she felt embarrassed about the situation she got herself into and the type of person she actually fell in love with in an emotional interview with Diane Sawyer for Good Morning America on Thursday (November 5).

The singer also admitted that she went back to her abusive boyfriend Chris Brown, who also gave a tell-all interview to air on MTV (watch video), eight to nine times before the incident that stole her privacy and completely changed her life. Rihanna finally left Chris when she realized the impact her decision could have in other women’s lives since her story of abuse became public.

“When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result into some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part. I couldn’t be responsible … If Chris never hit me again, who’s to say that their boyfriend won’t … kill these girls? These are young girls. I just didn’t realize how much of an impact I had on these girls until that happened. It was a wake-up call for me, big time, especially when I took myself out of the situation,” Rihanna says emotionally.

She also offers advice to “any girl who is going through domestic violence: Don’t react off of love. F love. To come out of the situation and look at it third-person and for what it really is, you then make your decision. Because love is so blinding.”

This interview is revealing and emotional. For the first time Rihanna spoke up about what happened, what she went through and how she feels in an attempt to set a good example for other women victim of abuse – it is not easy but ‘F love!’ The complete Rihanna interview will air on ABC’s ‘20/20′ on Friday night (November 6).

Chris Brown The Interview MTV Special (VIDEO)

Chris Brown Public Apology Pre-Grammy Party

After Rihanna’s highly publicized tell-all interview for GMA and 20/20 (details and video), Chris Brown also wants to open up and talk about his feelings regarding the domestic abuse case on a MTV special titled “Chris Brown: The Interview” which will air on Friday (November 6).

Chris tells Sway Calloway he is trying to move on but still struggles with what happened that night when a fight between the couple turned nasty and he beat up his ex-girlfriend. Chris says, “How do you, Chris, go from point A to point B? How do you learn from your mistakes, turn it into a positive and help other people with the situation … and at the end of the day become the person that you want to be?” Blah blah blah!

In the 30-minute special, Chris will also address the ‘Larry King Live’ interview, the public’s perception of him and his new album ‘Graffiti’ [Graffiti’s album cover]. It seems like Chris is trying too hard not to stay behind but this interview coming out exactly when Rihanna decided to open up is just bad taste. Chris, you already had your chance to speak up several times, now shut up and let the victim speak!

Rihanna Tells Her Story On Good Morning America & 20/20 (VIDEO)

Rihanna Diane Sawyer Interview GMA 20/20 Photos

Singer Rihanna will speak up for the first time about the tragic night that completely changed her life when she was beaten by her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown in a tell-all interview for ‘Good Morning America’ on Thursday (November 5), which will be extended into a ‘20/20’ special titled ‘Rihanna: Her Story’ on Friday (November 6).

Rihanna confessed to Diane Sawyer that Chris was her first big love and if it happened to her it can happen to anyone. The best she can do is try to move on by speaking out, telling her story, and hopefully set a good example to other women dealing with domestic abuse.

“I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears,” the “Russian Roulette” singer recalls in the interview for Glamour. “That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day. 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.”

Both Chris Brown and Rihanna are coming out with new projects. Chris’ new album ‘Graffiti’ (see ridiculous album cover) will drop December 15, while Rihanna’s fourth album ‘Rated R’ comes out November 23. The first single out her new album ‘Russian Roulette’ premiered last month (photos + audio).

Rihanna’s Dark Album Cover for ‘Rated R’

Rihanna Rated R Album Cover

The album cover/artwork for Rihanna’s new album ‘Rated R’ was given to Popeater and they quickly shared the dark and slightly disturbing album cover with the rest of us.

In the cover photo it almost looks as if Rihanna is covering up her eye or in an not so discreet way making reference to the horrific beating she suffered at the hands of her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

The single ‘Russian Roulette’ off the album is a dark tune and I suspect most of the album will have a much darker tone than her upbeat and rhytmatic dance tunes from her last album ‘Good Girl Gone Bad.’

The cover was shot by famed fashion photographer Ellen von Unwerth. who said Rihanna was “a pleasure to shoot.”

Rihanna Would Rather Go Naked Than Wear Clothes (NSFW Photos)

rihanna-naked-nude-fashion-photos

Singer Rihanna, well known for her peculiar fashion sense and dramatic makeovers (Rihanna’s new hairstyle photos), has adopted a new dress code which includes tight, see-through ensembles that leave almost nothing to the imagination.

Just because we have already seen Rihanna completely naked (photos), it doesn’t mean she can explicitly expose her pierced boobies and bootylicious body (NSFW photos below). It is clear that Rihanna feels way too comfortable in her own skin and she should be posing for Playboy soon (everybody is doing it… from Marge Simpson to Tara Reid!!).

Rihanna’s Funky New Hairstyle!

Singer Rihanna was recently spotted with a dark new look, which included one peculiar hairstyle – a shorter haircut, dark hair color with bright blonde streaks - thigh high boots and dark plum lipstick.

The 21 year-old is well known for her dramatic fashion choices but she went too far. The new hairstyle is not flattering at all and it actually makes her look older.

Rihanna & Justin Timberlake Secretly Dating!?! (Photos)

rihanna-and-justin-timberlake-dating-photos

Justin Timberlake, who has been dating actress Jessica Biel for more than two years, and singer Rihanna were spotted together in New York a couple of times. Rumors say the two might have been secretly hooking up and that Justin is planning to dump his girlfriend for Rihanna.

“Justin and Rihanna have been seeing each other for the past few weeks,” a source close to Rihanna told Showbiz Spy exclusively. “He is really into her and it’s only a matter of time before he dumps Jessica.”

The source added, “It was at 10ak in NYC and they left together. They are seeing each other on the low!”

The chemistry between Justin and Rihanna is evident in the music video for “Rehab” (photos below), a song he and Timberland wrote for the ‘Umbrella’ singer. We just cannot believe someone can ever dump super sexy Jessica Biel but it seems like their relationship has been on the rocks for a long time.

Chris Brown Claims Amnesia On Larry King Live Interview (Video)

Chris Brown Public Apology Pre-Grammy Party

R&B star Chris Brown opened up for the first time after the assault of his former girlfriend Rihanna in an exclusive interview for Larry King Live that will air on Wednesday (September 2).

Chris is still astonished by what happened! He claims he doesn’t remember the attack and that he can’t believe he did what he did to the woman he still loves.

Chris said, “I’m in shock, because, first of all, that’s not who I am as a person, and that’s not who I promise I want to be. I just don’t know what to think. I’m just like, wow. It’s crazy to me.”

Mother Joyce Hawkins and his lawyer Mark Geragos were by Chris’ side during the whole interview. Joyce defends her son saying he was never violent. Chris is having a hard time seeing Rihanna with other men, saying “I definitely would be affected by it, but at the end of the day, I mean, we’re not together, so if she’s happy, I’m cool.”

Chris Brown Finally Sentenced!

Chris Brown Public Apology Pre-Grammy Party

Chris Brown’s sentencing has been moved up two days to today at L.A. courthouse. The 20 year-old singer was sentenced to five years of probation and 6 months of hard labor at the Commonwealth Catholic Charities in Richmond, VA, where he must also take a 52-week domestic violence course.

For the next five years, Chris can be subjected to search and seizure, can’t own a dangerous weapon (including guns or knives) or leave the country without prior approval and he must stay 100 yards away from Rihanna, unless they are both at an entertainment-related event, in which case he must stay 10 yards away.

Chris was also ordered to provide DNA samples, pay 500 in restitution, another $2,500 in probation expenses, $30 criminal conviction fee and $400 that goes into a domestic violence fund. It seems it’s kind of cheap to be a criminal!

Rihanna is the latest R&B star to have nude/naked photos leaked this week. First Cassie Ventura (photos), now Rihanna!? It seems like a conspiracy to me! Maybe Rihanna was just jealous because Cassie was getting all the attention and she decided to leak some revealing hot photos of herself too! Note: both Rihanna and Cassie have pierced nipples!

So who do you think is hotter: Rihanna or Cassie Ventura??

Rihanna was spotted having an intimate dinner with basketball player Los Angeles Lakers star, Andrew Bynum, at Mastro’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills last Friday. A source said : “They looked very couple-y, sitting real close to each other in the car.

The “Umbrella” singer, who was recently involved in a domestic violence case with her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, has recently been romantically linked to Wilmer Valderrama and Frankie Delgado. I guess this is good news since it means Rihanna is not thinking about getting back to her abuser.

Chris Brown Cowardly Pleads Not Guilty

chris-brown-pleads-not-guilty-4

Chris Brown, who was charged with two felonies - assault and making criminal threats, showed up with his lawyer, Mark Geragos, at Los Angeles County Court today (April 6) to plead not guilty. There to support him were his sobbing mother and four bodyguards in case someone wanted to beat the crap out of Chris this time! Rihanna did not show up.

A second preliminary hearing was scheduled for April 29, which gives both parts time to discuss the case and work out some kind of deal, avoiding a trial. Rihanna’s attorney, Donald Etra, reiterated promises that his client will do “everything that the law requires her to do,” adding, “She would be pleased if this was over quickly.” So that means Rihanna wants a deal too and Chris will get nothing but a big slap on the wrist!

Rihanna Reveals New Tattoo: It’s a Gun, Bang Bang!! (Photos)

rihanna-new-gun-tattoo-photos-1

Singer Rihanna, who was a victim of domestic violence, decided to tattoo a handgun on her body. This is certainly not the kind of attention Rihanna wants right now – what the heck was she thinking??

The tattoo artist BangBang initially drew two guns on top of her arms (photo below) but Rihanna worried with her Cover Girl contract decided against it and instead did it across her ribcage. The shocking photos were posted on BangBang’s website.

BangBang wrote on his website: ‘I really wanted to put it here [on her arms]… She loved ‘em. But, Cover Girl wouldn’t have liked it much… and they pay the bills!’

I hope Rihanna can claim temporary insanity later. This is just wrong!! Why would such a beautiful woman ruin her body with a tattoo of a gun?? It’s distasteful and another way to glamourize violence… considering her recent history, I say it’s just shocking!

Rihanna & Chris Brown’s Sex Tape To Be Leaked!!

jingle_ball

Rihanna is afraid tapes of her and her abusive boyfriend Chris Brown engaging in some intimate wild activities in the bedroom will be leaked. Yes, Rihanna and Chris have sex tapes ready to be leaked according to Star Magazine.

“Rihanna has no issues with her sexuality,” a source says. “But she’d be mortified if her friends and family found this out!”

Insiders say Rihanna is still emotionally fragile and vulnerable since the assault. “This whole beating incident is terribly humiliating for her. She’s already traumatized and will do anything to make it all go away as quickly as possible.”

As humiliating as a sex tape can be, I don’t think that is enough to stay with Chris Brown! The sex tape must be the only reason why Rihanna is still considering a relationship with Chris, right?! She is afraid he might leak or start selling their sex tape. Chris’ career is over, he might be tempted to make easy money with those tapes… if he is capable of beating the woman he “loves” then he can do anything!

UPDATE!! Rihanna’s Nude/Naked Photos Leaked here>>

Rihanna Is Back Partying In Hollywood (Photos + Video)

rihanna-parties-in-hollywood

Singer Rihanna was seen, in a rare public appearance after Chris Brown allegedly beat her, out and about partying at the Coco Deville nightclub last night. The 21 year-old didn’t take off her sunglasses not even inside the club. Thankfully Chris didn’t accompany her to the club or a riot might have happened.

I think Rihanna still feels embarrassed about the situation she is in, especially if she is taking Chris back. I’m sure a lot of people would love to just tell her to get away from that guy and a very dangerous self-destructive relationship.
