I believe that no one have the right to comment on any of the accusations. No one was there at the scene when the situation happened, no one really know their situation, and most importantly Rihanna nor Chris Brown commented on the situation. The only thing people can go by is what they heard and what they feel about the topic. But how can one comment on something that they know any concrete evidence on. If it had been a video vixen that was beaten on by a celebrity, no one would have really looked into it like this, so why should people give this situation any more emphasis? Why is it that it takes two young stars in this situation to make everyone address such a big problem in the world today? It is imperative that we address topics like this before they are pushed in situations like this. Important topics should not have to wait until a celebrity is involved in order to address them, or they will turn out like this. I am an adamant Chris Brown and Rihanna fan. As a fan to both of them, I will support both of them regardless of their decisions as should as all their fans. If not then whosoever choose not to was not a faithful fan in the first place. People make mistakes. That is apart of growing. They are young, so let then grow.

i couldn’t believbe it when i heard rihanna had took chris brown weak behind back. i don’t feel sorry 4 her anymore and chris brown shouldn’t go 2 jail. she didn’t press charges so he shouldn’t go. she stupidly took him back so it’s her fault. point blank she doesn’t care and neither should we. he is just gonna beat her again and when he does i’m gonna LMAO beause she dosen’t respect her self so i will show her no respect. as a true ex-rhinna fan i say it should be over, it’s getting old. if she wants him let her have him. and regardless of the circumstances of what happened a man should never hit a woman no matter what. and she shouldn’t be with him no matter what, a baby or because u love him. love shouldn’t hurt. if he hits u that shows he dosen’t love u.to pull this all 2gether, she is no longer or ever will be a role model 4 young girls and teens ever again.

BB I agree! Cover Girl should pull her contract…clearly, she does not respect herself & is no longer a role model.

She is beautiful and talented but she is no longer capable of being a role model for young women. Cover Girl cosmetics needs to pull her contract. You cannot sell yourself if you do not respect yourself.

For me, this part of the story says it all… “It just makes your heart sink to think of Rihanna back with the man who inflicted those terrible injuries to her.”

I think it’s very unfair to say Rihanna could have acted as a role model for young girls about how to handle these situations and that she is sending a bad message to abused women. Rihanna didn’t ask for this. If anything, parents and teachers and other adults should take this opportunity to talk to their children about the cycle of abuse and how even being successful in many ways and having family support doesn’t always protect women from returning to abusive situations. If adults truly care about their young girls (and boys) they would take this and open a forum for honest question and answer with their kids.
In addition, I doubt any currently abused women are going to demean Rihanna since they are most likely to understand what she is going through.

Sadly, this whole thing makes her human. She’s young, she’s probably been involved in months of emotional/mental abuse/control before the physical abuse started. To call her stupid and dumb and undeserving of sympathy and support is to say the same of every other abused woman who returns or remains with her abuser. Just because Rihanna is a celebrity with a supportive family doesn’t make her above the hundreds of thousands of abused women out there.

Continue to decry abuse, and continue t provide support and resources to those who are abused.

this is absolutely tragic. I feel like Rihanna has bought into the misogynist attitude that is so pervasive in her industry, which tells men that they own women and women that they should do whatever it takes to please a man. The fact is that in most circles if a 19yr old boy beat a 20yr old girl, practically all of their friends/family/acquaintances would condemn it and push for a break up. We see however, in the world of celebrity, and I would go so far as to say, particularly in the music industry, people are saying “oh, wait and see” and her mentor, HER MENTOR is helping Brown have access to her, and helping them to “reconcile”. The whole situation is really horrific. An abuser doesnt stop, and going back to him suggests that his behaviour was in some way acceptable. Which it was not.

how sad… just because this is common practice for abused women, doesn’t mean that many don’t do the right thing and get away and we should expect better of them… when news first broke out about the beating, i was sure she wouldn’t go back to him considering she has a unique situation where she’s getting a lot of public support (and pressure) to leave him… i’m surprised and saddened that none of that affected her decision
