Now that Chris Brown’s apologised for possibly choking Rihanna unconscious in a rage-filled attack, we can all move on.
Right? After all, he’s said sorry. True, Chris Brown might not have admitted anything, but he’s definitely sorry, and that’s what counts. So we’re bewildered by reports of Rihanna being ‘appalled’ by Chris Brown’s apology.
Hey Rihanna, he said sorry! Jeez, it’s almost like a transparently damage-limiting, vaguely-worded third party apology doesn’t make up for allegedly being attacked in the face. Maybe Chris Brown needs to move onto the next failsafe stage of contrition – a ?3.99 bunch of petrol station flowers.
This whole Chris Brown/ Rihanna situation has been rumbling on for so long that everyone thinks they know everything about it – that Chris Brown got arrested after attacking Rihanna and choking her unconscious when she caught him receiving a text message from another woman and somewhere along the line Oprah Winfrey’s friend got a little bit sad – but the truth is, until Rihanna gives her side of the story, nobody really knows anything.
So why hasn’t Rihanna spoken out publicly about the incident yet? There could be a number of reasons – shame, emotional anguish, the fact that her head’s been in a three-inch-thick plastercast since last Sunday and she can only currently use her mouth for slurping up baby food through a straw. Who can really say for sure?
However, just because Rihanna doesn’t want to pass comment on the alleged attack, it isn’t going to stop every single person who knows Rihanna in the world from doing it for her. For instance, it doesn’t matter that Rihanna hasn’t publicly stated whether or not she accepts Chris Brown’s recent apology, because her people are queuing up around the block to let the world know that Rihanna thinks that Chris Brown is a filthy shitbag. The Chicago Sun Times reports:
Recovering from her various injuries at her home down in her native Barbados, the singer told a longtime friend in that island nation she was ”appalled” by the comments Brown, 19, made in that statement. ”All of us, including Rihanna, don’t understand how he can say he’s sorry on the one hand, but still … does not admit any guilt,” said the source, adding, “He should have expressed more contrition.”
Good. We’re glad we weren’t the only ones appalled by Chris Brown’s apology – seriously, asking God to make you a better person, Chris? Have you not seen Bruce Almighty? Anyone who asks God to make them a better person ends up with more fingers than they ever wanted and a desperately unhealthy Jennifer Aniston infatuation. No wonder Rihanna’s so appalled. That’s definitely the reason why she’s appalled, by the way. Definitely.
But, anyway, if Chris Brown can’t win Rihanna back by getting his publicist to knock out a woolly, nonspecific apology to his fans, then it looks like he’s done for. It’s time for Chris Brown to move on. And, if our comment board is anything to go by, there are plenty of young women who’d be more than happy to be his next girlfriend.
True, none of them can actually spell – and we’re 98% positive that spending even a second with any of them would be like spending an eternity getting booted in the testicles by a meth-addicted version of Joe Pasquale – but it’s nice to have options, isn’t it?

If she takes this idiot back, she deserves a second beat-down.
Lisa Davis says
I read the article on Heckler Spray and let me tell you, I was told the reason why Chris Brown accused her of cheating is because Rihanna gave him an STD! If the man knows he hasn’t been with anyone but her since they started dating, and he suddenly comes up with an STD, his man part, what do YOU think he’s gonna do??? They aren’t going to tell you the whole truth because he’s a star, his fans would freak out!!
MrsB says
Maybe Rhianna is not saying anything about the incident because a) she’s a classy young lady b)her attorney is preparing for litigation again Mr. Brown and c)damage control is better if you just let things die out or d)maybe she’s pregnant and is looking out for her child’s welfare
Krystal says
Well i think there is still more 2 this story! I dnt think Chris is guilty and i also think Rihanna should say something so we can really figure all of this out cause i still dnt believe all of this! And yes Chris brown should move on there are plenty of girls who deserve better than rihanna! i think theres a girl out there who wont cheat on him 2 give him STD n i really dnt blame him 4 chocking her how can u give a person who cares so much about STD! i remember from the start they was such a cute couple n now this wow time flies

The psychology of music can dictate social behavior. It is unfortunate in much of black music women are bitches and whores and most of the time it’s black women. Magic Johnson said “we all make mistakes and he “hopes they get back together”. Brown could have killed her. Women need to start from the start deciding what is and what is not accceptable. Before a man puts his hands on you in a violent way, you know he’s capable. When he shows you crazy, believe he’s crazy and leave. I could care less about how “fine” his looks are or how much money he’s got, he is poison. LOVE DOES NOT HURT NOR DOES IT MAKE YOU FEEL BAD ABOUT YOURSELF. What I said is true about the music. Whatever images and sounds you feed your spirit with will be what nourishes you and will be what you become. Rihanna should run as far away form Chris Brown as possible. Don’t be surprised at the revelation it’s happened before.
AliciaS says
Well I think that everybody should just leave Chris alone. Because nobody knows the true story about what happend expect for those two. Rihanna should just tell the true story and stop trying make it seem like she’s a victim. I just feel that she did something to him for her to be in this situtation. I know that him hitting a female was wrong but she’s not perfect and she should just tell what happend that day. His career is going down becasue she wanrts everybody to think that it’s his fault and that she didn’t do anything. If his career has to suffer then so should her’s. Rihanna should be the one claimed for guilty because she was the controlling one in the realtionship. And now she think everybody is suppose to be on her side because she’s a women. Chris should just move on with his life and leave her alone because she has alot of issues. She’s a good liar and don’t deserve a good guy like him.

Has anyone thought that maybe she started to attack him first? seeing he got a booty call text, maybe flipped out, and sarted to attack him- so he defended himself- should she be brought up on charges, would the table totally turn around? yeah yeah- no man should ever hit a woman- agreed, but does a woman get to hit a man with no reprecussions? its called assault & battery either way-who ever does it. Society doesnt pay much attantion to that- unless charges are pressed? Does self defense work? Not for am black male in the US.
J says
Funny how there are always women (young girls?) defending Chris Brown. As a woman, I am disappointed to realize that for these girls, Rhianna is the bad guy in this situation. This is something parents really need to pay attention to.
My husband took our two young sons (8 and 5) to the park to play basketball last month. While there, he noticed a group of boys around the ages of 10 and 11. A couple of girls walked by and one of the boys yelled “hey, you f****** slut.” The girls yelled something just as sweet back, started to continue on but then turned right back around to go talk to these very fine young men.
Something’s got to change. Our young men are getting the message that it’s fine to be verbally and physically abusive toward females. And the girls are accepting it. This is dangerous for all of us.

I think it’s hilarious how everyone is making Rihanna out to be this poor, innocent victim. Let
chuch says
Alicia S and all the other crazy CB stans.
‘Rihanna should stop making it seem like she’s the victim’. Next u’ll be saying Chris was taken to the ER and Rihanna paid 50,000 bail and has a court hearing next month.
UR all so stupid its unbelievable.
Were u in their relationship when they were together -NO
Were u in the lambo.. NO
Ddnt Chris Brown say that half of the malicious things reported wasnt true.. YES . LET GO OF THE STD RUMOURS.
Do u think they’ve been advised to keep quiet because of the case.. PERHAPS
GIVE them space. If they have issues, they need to sort it out for themselves, no with ‘Alicia S and co in their business ‘ but Chris has to deal with the consequences. Thats the way it is when ur famous and a role model. Stop speculating and concentrate on ur education kids.
So Stupid. What r u.. puppy dogs. Yes chris, no Chris three bags full Chris.
Andre Hughes says
Personally where there’s smoke theres fire,Rhianna isn’t innoscent,she has done something remember a “good girl gone bad’ reports of a S.T.d
allegations that she threw away his lamborgini key’s Duh…she’s not Jesus christ that means people she sins like everyone else; no exceptions of the rule.Chris did whatever he did, but you can bet your life he was provoked and if rhianna was the woman you guy’s think she is, she’d step up and admit exactly what caused this alledged violent reaction. Instead of sitting on her yellow ass watching the media crucify her man, she’s only 20yrs old he’s only 19, stop acting like they’re in their 30’s…they’re both immature and acts accordingly.But to all you big mouth men bashers ask yourself this question,why hasn’t she opened her songstress mouth and said: I did this and this lead to that, I’m woman enough to admit this to myself; and my fans? Chris is not totally at fault here.I’ll tell you why she hasn’t women hate to admit they did anything wrong period,point blank! and anyone who know women know this, it’s more vindictive and satisfying to just play the poor ole me role and watch a blk man get crushed by the media,hey her career will soar after this farce of a act, it’s all about the benjamins baby know that.

I love the last two paragraphs of this story.
I think the global economic downturn has caused the clue bus to decrease/eliminate some stops.
hambassa says
She’s a young west indian woman that got too big too quick and may be operating in some time warp. I don’t follow this stuff but I read something a coupla months ago as to instructions she gave to him on appropriate behaviour while he’s on tour and sending a minder to make sure it happens!!! You know when I read that I really said this girl is whacked she must think she’s in Bridgetown and he;s her secondary school boyfriend and she’s Miss It in school. Doesn;t she realise she is with a young male superstar who earns by keeping himself sexy desirable and verile-able. You know I ain’t saying Brown was right but this sugar and spice vs snails and puppy dog tails got to really be addressed. I think she should get a simple west indian boy she can be dominatrix too like her general video image. You can’t be playing that jealous trite stuff at that level. Girl you ain’t twenty yet get your own text

This is the first time I’ve ever felt compelled to respond to an article on an online comment board. Usually, I just don’t have the time, or think, “who really cares?” But after reading this particular article, imbued in misogyny, I feel the need to STAND UP. As everyone woman should. If the author is a woman (God help us if the author is), take a hard, long look into your soul and reflect on what you wrote. That goes for a majority of the commenters as well. I don’t care if she slapped him, yelled at him, provoked him because she was upset at the fact that he has the audacity to cheat on her (a gorgeous, talented woman) – whatever. But for society to think that a man has the right to choke a woman until she’s purple and unconscious…for real? If that’s how you feel, do the world a favor and don’t procreate. I don’t think I’ll ever see world peace in my lifetime, but I will fight – as every good man and woman should – for equality, tolerance, and non-violence.
Joke Police says
Yeah, The Media, I heard that Rhianna masterminded the 9/11 attacks, was once a high-ranking officer in the Nazi secret police and likes murdering fluffy bunnies for a laugh – WHY IS NO-ONE MENTIONING THESE FACTS?
And FFS, Chris Brown is 19! NINETEEN! LOL! He is immature and therefore immune from prosecution from any crimes.
Not that he did anything bad. Cause he didn’t. And if he did, it was because RHIANNA THREW CAR KEYS OUT OF A DOOR!!!!!!!
I was glad that Andre put forward the key question in this whole sorry episode – why has Rhianna not come forward and admitted to all her made-up-on-the-internet crimes?
PS I was disappointed when we didn’t get to talk about “instigate”. That discussion was over far too quickly.
Amber gene tureman says
Why is everybody trippin acting like he the first person that has beat one of his girls before so lets get over it,cause after all the hype goes down everybody going to forget and then buy his music cause i know i am. their is always two sides of the story and he was man enough to turn his self in and we all know that one of them is going to lie and act like it was one or the others fault just to make them sould like they was the victim so lets get over it cause he still the shit :)fallback

you’re an a$$hole, how would you feel if you were strangled, you wuss…. I dont know how you got this job, if that was my sister, theat fool Chris Brown would be in hiding right about now…
unknown says
I believe that people are deciding this case with out all of the facts. I have read that stars have said yes I like Chris brown until I heard what he did. Well How do you know what you did? You only know what we have been informed of. We were also informed that Oprah and Gayle were lovers are we to be leave that as well. People shouldn’t judge them based on what they hear. The media as with anyone else will put out what they want you to know and not what will always be the truth.
How many times have we seen stories corrected that were written incorrectly?
My husband was in the military and women are not always victims either. There was one couple that fought every weekend so much so that the police said if they came back they would take both of them in. The funny part was her husband was only defending himself because she was fighting him. I have seen a wife take a rake down her spouses face becasue he didn’t believe in hitting women.
There was another case where a female bruised herself and tried to blame the spouse and if there wasn’t people around he would have went to jail.
We as women can be very spitefull when we want to be.
Now I’m not saying that he didn’t abuse her but let’s get all of the information before we just believe that she is a victim.
We as women need to start respecting ourselves as well if you want to be an example I was brought up the less you shoow the more a man is going to want you because he is going to wonder what is underneath. Now everyone thinks it’s cool to flaunt and show everything. if you act like a lady then you will be treated like one. But if you are out here with 3 & 4 baby daddy’s instead of one father for your children what kind of example are you?
That also goes for the men stop having 3 & 4 baby momma’s and just have one. Lets talk about being married before we have children instead of shacking up and praying that marriage will come.
Jada and her hubby had it right when they said they were not going to judge but will rech out to both Chris and Rihanna for support and help in there time of need.
These are kids really trying to place house and not understanding the full meaning of life.
We all can say what if and this could have happened but they both are victims and less just hope lessons will be learned and they grow in positive ways from this experience.
Those of us who are judging them in a negative manner remember please think about all of the things that you have done but it’s just not in the public eye and we are always trying to judge or change others when are own flaws are just as bad.
I have never hit a man nor have I been abused and have been with the same person for many years and our children are by the both of us and we were married before we had them.
But I have I made mistakes YES and I prob. will again but I hope to learn from them and not be judged as harshly as people have judged these two young people.
euclid says
This thread is not just another new low. We are going to require
several new dimensions to fully fathom the depths of self-serving,
poorly written, hastily delivered stupidity above. As if HS isn’t
enough abuse on its own. Now we must suffer the abuse of the
soon-to-be abused prating blandly about how she (and therefore they)
deserve it. This is not human tragedy, this is farce. A note to all
apologists/future victims: Your suffering will not make you holy,
it will make you hurt.
Julian Mentat says
The women in these threads who said “she deserved it”… could I have your numbers?
Cos I’m looking to date a woman who I can knock around a bit, without getting arrested again.
