Oh boy….That’s wrong on so many levels.

It’s a shame it happened, and I feel terrible for her. I’m shocked and disgusted at how everyone feels sorry for CHRIS!

Yeah really. He deserves no pity. If he didn’t wanna catch crap for abusing her, he shouldn’t have done it. I don’t care how long its been, he still did it. If you read the police report, it’s appalling.

Puke.

yeah her song is just terrible if he’s trying to rehab his image….and I’m all for second chances by the way!!

Wow well he has everything to gain from this, I just lost a little respect for her. That’s low, bitch

I’m not surprised… this is what battered woman do. If it wasn’t for her record label pressure I don’t believe she would have left him in the first place.

seems like they deserve one another

These two deserve each other…I have no sympathy for her the next time…and there WILL be a next time…he beats the hell out of her and either seriously injures or kills her. No longer a fan of either one.

EVERYONE SHUT THE FUCK UP! its a damn song..not a wedding. omgggggg get over yourselves..is your name rihanna?? no..so he doesnt need your forgiveness. he has hers and thats all that matters. if it affects you so much you are the only one with issues

It’s no wonder so many women get bashed, it’s not really setting a good example for her to have anything to do with him. Clearly she has just as many issues as he does.

I totally agree with you. I can’t believe she would have anything to do with him. There is always a next time with men like Brown, next time she may not be so lucky. I think it is a terrible choice she is making, not only is she putting herself in harms way but she isn’t exactly setting a good example for other girls out there who are in a physical abusive relationship. Clearly she has some major deep rooted self esteem issues, no women who loves herself would ever go back or even professionally work again with a man who beat her and tried to strangle her.

After reading the police report the other day I have no doubt that Chris brown could and would hit a women again. He has shown that he has not dealt with his anger issues when he threw the hissy fit in the green room when giving that interview. He is dangerous and when they get back together and I believe they will, he will hit her again. Only difference is next time he will have learnt to hit her in private and in places that can’t be seen when you look directly at a person. That is what abusive men do. He clearly has some power over her still, or she would not want to work with him in any way!

Look at how much publicity they are BOTH getting with this “reconciliation”. People are talking about them, listening to songs- isn’t that what every artist wants? I’m not saying there not getting back together but even if they don’t they’ve gained from all this. If Rhianna wants to go back and possibly deal with all that again then it’s her decision, she clearly thinks he’s changed and I support her decision I just hope its the right one

such a shame….i thought she was not so stupid….

Every one leave Rihanna and Chris alone ! For crying out Loud is their freaken life’s ! If he beat her is beacause you are all praying and hoping for that to happen. Guess what ya all is not gonna happen they are also God children let God judge them ! stop breaking and make it. stop hating who cares if you hate them it doesn’t affect their daily life routine in any way ! Do get over it ! Over it! Go deal with your own issues as if you don’t have !!! Leave them alone Loosers !!!

People have got to be mad right now.All you b*t*hing and moaning is kind of pointless.She has forgiven him and moved on.All they want to do is live life and make music.Them making a song doesn’t mean they are back together it is just two artist collaborating on songs.I think it was done more to the point to say this was never about you(the public) so move on and stop using us for target practice.She has forgiven him doesn’t mean she has forgot but she is not going to let you people reduce her to a helpless victim.She is choosing to rise above her circumstance.He knows this will forver follow him and he doesn’t need your help in making it more eveident.They just want to live and do what they do best make music and people need to stop hiding behind their computer worry about your own life and problems and let them handle theirs.We are all just spectators watching and commenting and judging when we don’t really know either one of them.If you want to do something show your concern about those thousands of people who don’t have a voice.The thousands and more who don’t get articles written about them or don’t get TV time and or any help at al and leave these two alone.It is their life and evident that our talking isn’t stopping anything just some wasted time we aill never get back.

Love their collaboration!!! Wish them both all the best in THEIR LIVES. Move on people….

Silly question…
Are we even sure this is brand new material? Artists put songs on a new album but, they recorded it months/years before. It’s up to the record label to make up the set list. So, in theory if these are old and recorded while they were still together it would make sense. However releasing both the songs now after what happened is kind of crass.

maybe that’s why she did it. To show people that if she can forgive him and move on, so can everyone else.

I can’t believe she did it, not after what happened. BUT she might have done it to show people that she can forgive him and move on, so they can all do the same.

But why would she expect us to do the same that she did?
There are millions of woman being beaten every day. She was in a position to make a stand and give strength to these woman, and instead she gets friendly with her abuser again. Oh well, I lost respect for her a little while ago!

well shit id get back with that…did any of you see how big he is…:P

Rihanna, que cagada!!!!…..Esta vez te matara en la escena!!!

Once a BEATER will be always a BEATER!!!. Rihanna, I am SHAME ON YOU!!!!

Aw, how cute.

Hey, Rhi:

Next time he beats you up, keep it to yourself.

That is alot pressure to carry on her shoulders.She could lend her voice and show that she is not a victim.A song does not mean she is back together with him.They made a song and now a days you don’t have to even lays eyes on the person to do that.It is a song not the golden braille or the national anthem.She is showing that what happened to her doesn’t define her or stop her from living her life.People think that because of what happened she shouldn’t be in the same place as CB,shut down completely and that would be sending the wrong message.If they share friends she should give up those friends? The message that she and anyone that has ever been through this should is that you don’t have to be a victim.The only way to heal is to forgive the person and not carry the blame yourself.You still have an obligation to yourself to be happy and don’t let others feeling become your own.You can’t hold onto hatred because people tell you that is how you are supposed to feel.Never forget who you are and don’t let your circumstance be who you become.

Why should should she be ashamed because she didn’t let her circumstance make her a bitter victim.People are jumping to conclusions without really knowing what is going on with the songs.No one has confirmed they are back together they have both said they enjoy each others music so they made a song big deal.We are really putting too much time and energy into this.You can’t say once a beater always a beater(you can but you can’t prove it),you would have to know every man and woman who has abused someone or been abused my someone.Everybody is different and their circumstance and outcome is different.

SHUT UP

You know who you sound like? This guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHmvkRoEowc

Oh come on now I know you can come up with something better than that.I know that can’t be all you have go ahead think about it and try again.

I hope you will be as forgiving as you are now the next time he hits a woman. And no, I don’t ‘hope’ it will happen, I’m ‘afraid’ it will happen.

they are still in love uh lust

That is all any of us can do is hope it doesn’t but condemning him isn’t going to stop it one way or the other.I(me) choose to believe that person doesn’t always repeat their mistakes.It is not up to me to forgive him or anyone else that has ever made a mistake.The only one I have control over is me.I can offer advice to someone who has been through it but the ultimate decision is that persons and me sitting around calling them out their name is not going to change their mind.You asked me would I be as forgiving if it happened again.My opinion or forgiveness has no baring on his life.The answer is I will never defend what he did and if it were to happen again I will say this he needs to be held accountable in a more severe sense(jail time).Even then that will be that I won’t tear him or any other man down and I won’t tear him down before it happens because it may never.Now that I answered your question maybe you can answer mine;if it comes that it never happens again (and you don’t have to forgive him that is your right and your opinion) will you be able to let it go.I mean it is reasonable that no one will ever forget but will you be able to live and let live or will you still want him lynched for his past transgressions?

They were both high and intoxicated that night, hence why he blacked out. Don’t judge him when you weren’t in the car. If the person that was in the car with him can forgive and move forward, who the hell are you to point fingers? Police reports are sensationalized, only those who lived through it KNOW the truth.

Fair enough answer and fair enough question.

For me physical abuse is different from , lets say, drug abuse. I think one can kick a bad habit, but I think that physical abuse comes from personality. There are those school bullies who go around and mock others, and they actually plan it all out, and this is also something where you can make them see reason. It is not easy but it is possible.

But those beaters (I am not singling out C. Brown, it is for everyone, men and woman as well) who’s fist fly when their tempers flare, I don’t think there is much one can do. And Chris Brown definitely flies into rage pretty easy.
As to question itself, I wouldn’t say I want him ‘lynched’ but I know what you are saying.
I guess it would be easier for me to ‘let it go’ if he wouldn’t get angry so easily and so often. That Good Morning America temper tantrum is one thing. Then remember how angry he got at Walmart because he walked into the store and his new album was not out, and he was bitching that Walmart is not carrying his music. He got very nasty about it. When in reality Walmart had sold out all the albums. The man gets angry so darn fast. And if there weren’t those little flares maybe I , well, I wouldn’t buy his album, but I also wouldn’t be here bitching about him.

It’s not unusual for victims to take back their abusers. She may not even understand why she is still attracted to him. In the end, she obviously has self-esteem issues to willingly expose herself to that kind of risk again.

Are you acting as their secret publicist. Why are you so invested in Chris Browns indiscretion being forgiven?
These “role models” influence our children.
This new PR stunt is sending out an insidious message.
Once again money trumps morals.
If everyone is of the opinion that it’s “their lives” then why whip up such a media frenzy and a public campaign to villainise your abuser.
This is a huge slap in the face to the foolish, sheep herd mentality of the public, exemplifying how fickle we are.

Is this really who we are?? We happily buy into anything we are drip fed by the Hollywood dissemination of lax scruples!

WAKE UP PEOPLE!

Then we have other stupid girls spouting ugly nonsensical diatribe along the lines of “well shit id get back with that…did any of you see how big he is…:P”

Once again we are being exploited to put more money in Hollywood’s pocket at the expense of our children’s morals.

Wow, lets hope you never have a partner beat on you because clearly you the sort of person who thinks that is okay. She is an idiot for having anything to do with this man and your an idiot for thinking a women basher would ever change. Funny how so many men “blackout” when they know they have done something reprehensible.

Yep she obviously has self esteem issues, most women that get beaten up by men do. Physical abuse usually goes hand in hand with emotional and mental abuse. Chris seems to have some sort of hold on her, I can’t understand why else she would want anything to do with him. It’s one thing to forgive someone but a completely different thing to forgive and dismiss it like it never happened.

Okay, I agree that yes it’s great that she has the ability to forgive a person who caused her so much harm but it is a completely different thing to forgive and then dismiss it like it never happened, which is what working with him does. I’m not saying that she should be walking around with hatred for him, you can forgive someone but not put yourself back in the same situation. I have no doubt that they will get back together, men who abuse women in anyway are very hard to shake, because they mess with your head and make you question everything about yourself. This is why so many women who have been abused go back to their abuser. They may not be back together now but she has already justified to herself that it is okay to have some sort of relationship with him even if it is professional and once you to that it is a very slippery slope back into that persons arms.

Amazing song.

I believe in second chances. Maybe Brown deserves one. People shouldn’t judge too harshly

What are you talking about getting back together? Chris Brown has been in a relationship with his girlfriend Kae for quite some time now. Its her life and her decisions he has not hit his girlfriend Kae as every time she is photographed she is wearing very little to the imagination and from what I’ve seen she doesn’t seem to be in an abusive relationship. Rihanna doesn’t care what anyone says and if they didn’t work out as a couple well maybe there is still some fragment of a friendship they are both holding on to. People really need to let this go and you want to talk to about abuse? Calling her an idiot and others around you is a form of verbal abuse which can just be as bad as physical abuse. Maybe you should not be so quick to throw stones at other people. Let’s hope if your friend or loved one had been an abusive relationship they wouldn’t have someone calling them an idiot even further lowering their self esteem.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.– Mahatma Gandhi

Says a lot about the people on this thread who are so ready to cast stones at Rhianna I don’t like Chris Brown as he has done some really disgusting things but I am sick of hearing about this situation. From Miranda Lambert to others weighing in on a situation that has nothing to do with them, this is between Chris and Rhianna. I doubt they are getting back together as Chris has been in a committed relationship with his girlfriend Kae.
As for the role model thing…why the hell are you letting your little girls listen to Rihanna songs anyway? Her songs are usually sexual in nature etc. Not something I even let my little sister listen too first of all. Second of all CELEBRITIES ARE NOT ROLE MODELS! You as parents need to teach your kids right from wrong and what is a healthy relationship and what isn’t a healthy relationship. Rihanna doesn’t live her life to raise your kids so grow up and stop being lazy and expecting tv/celebs to teach your kids about life. No wonder this generation is going down the toilet drain.
Chris Brown was judged by the law and did his time unlike some other women beaters and law breakers must I again mention Charlie Sheen but yet everyone supports Charlie right? Even giving him a roast etc. and buying his show tickets but no one is up in a roar about that?
Rihanna and Chris Brown aren’t the most talented people but this hooplah surrounding their friendship is sickening. Let it go already if she has forgiven him then that’s the end of the story after all she’s the one who took the beating its her life, so let her live it. And if you’re still hating on them well it doesn’t matter as they both have millions to be comfortable and could care less what anyone thinks about them. Btw, both of these songs suck and I am not impressed by either one of them musically.

Interracial dating on HERE is easy to begin with, with free profile placement to get you attracted with meeting and coming across profiles of interracial people .

you should be your child’s role model, it starts from home and if you raise them the right way, maybe they can avoid the worng! as for chris and re, it takes a strong woman to forgive something like that! and as for chris, thank you for keeping yourself clear and free of any other abuse but try to ignor these fools that are hating on you! you be the better man and just ignore them, they want to see you fail! don’t give in, stay positive and just don’t respond! I like to collaboration, they have good chemistry, I just think the birthdate cake lyrics was not the right time is all.

good question, I personally think they have been collaborating for some time.

not true!

she did not dimiss it if the order of pretection was just lifted three years later. she could have had it canceled a couple of years back. I just think she is tired of hiding they are close to each other and just want people to understand yes he did wrong, but wrong to ruin his career and not forgive if he has not done this again to anyone.

Maybe we need to stop looking to celebrities to be role models for our kids and start filling that position ourselves.We are the one who provide and sacrifice for them.We are the ones that teach them ethics and morals.Your kids become influenced by watching you and learning from the examples you set for them.We need to stop looking to celebrities to raise our kids.Entertainment is their job they never signed on to be role models to our kids that is a role we as parents make the mistake and assign to them.I am not invested it is your choice to forgive him or not.I just don’t find that this hate mob that has been formed is going to change anything.I have said it over and over I don’t and will never condone what he did but beating him down and stripping him of his lively hood is not going to change what happened.I have also said that in my personal opnion that he deserves another chance.People don’t have to forgive him but at least leave him alone.

Unsure how upset I am with Chris Brown’s deplorable violent behavior with his then girlfriend Rihanna or her stupidity in doing a video with him. Especially when I read in the PhilaPA Metro his new pick up line “Can I have your number Don’t worry I won’t beat you.” Who writes your material Chris Fire him. Seriously I know hes getting counseling. But any man who says what he said even if he is kidding is somehow not realizing the seriousness of what he did. I hope Rihanna knows for her sake. I really do hope she does realize.

Gotta give you a thumbs up for quoting the Great prophet Gandhi!. Yes, it is up to PARENTS to monitor their household and be the role models to their children. Crazy how some parents let the tv and media raise their kids. Lazy.

Indiscretion?!!! He put her in the fucking hospital! He BIT HER FACE!!! HE USED HIS TEETH ON HER FUCKING FACE!!!! Being a WOMAN BEATER, an ABUSER is way beyond a simple “indiscretion”. An indiscretion is a simple mistake. Beating the shit out of a woman,biting her face? That’s heinous and criminal. Although, rich boy that he is, he sure didn’t do much(any)jail time.
