Chris Wishes Rihanna Would Shut Up
Friday, November 6th, 2009
Chris Brown has spent the last eight months trying to sweep his vicious beating of ex-GF Rihanna under the rug, so it’s no surprise he’s not happy that she’s all over the press and TV this week, telling her story. Tonight, Brown goes on MTV to tell his side, which will probably involve how he’s good to his momma and goes to church on Sunday.
Late Friday afternoon, following two appearances by Rihanna on “Good Morning America,” Brown released his own statement to MTV, as reported by People. “I maintain my position that all of the details should remain a private matter between us. I do appreciate her support and wish her the best.” Uh, no, Chris—it doesn’t work that way. When you beat someone so badly that they have to go to the hospital, that’s not “private” anymore.
Brown’s statement continued, I am extremely sorry for what I did, and I accept accountability for my actions. At this point, I am taking the proper steps to learn about me and grow from my mistakes. I only hope that others in similar situations can learn from our experience as well. Abuse of any kind is always wrong. The rest I leave it to God.”
Yeah, let’s drag Him into this. Too little, too late, Chris. Hope you enjoyed your career while you had it, because it’s gonna all be over after Rihanna reveals the dirty details of what you did to her on “20/20” tonight.

Rihanna Opens Up About Abuse
Thursday, November 5th, 2009
Eight months after her savage beating at the hands of boyfriend Chris Brown, Rihanna has finally spoken out about her long journey to healing. In an interview with Diane Sawyer, which aired on “Good Morning America” today, the pop star admitted she had initially been reluctant to discuss the abuse, but finally had a revelation that she must address the issue because she is such a role model for teen girls.
“When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result in some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part. I couldn’t be responsible for that. Even if Chris never hit me again, who’s to say their boyfriend won’t? Who’s to say they won’t kill these girls? I didn’t realize how much of an impact I had on these girls’ lives until that happened.”
The most shocking part of the interview was Rihanna’s admission that she went back to Brown after the beating, and it took several attempts before she finally found the strength to break it off. “It’s pretty easy to go back. You start lying to yourself. The physical wounds go away. You want this thing to go away. This is a memory you don’t want to ever have again.” Rihanna will tell more about the Brown incident on Friday night’s “20/20.” Including explicit details of the beating.

Chris Brown Goes Back On Tour
Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
In an effort to salvage what’s left of his career, disgraced crooner Chris Brown will be embarking on a “Fan Appreciation” tour. The AP reports the jaunt will begin in Houston Nove. 14 and play small venues.
Uh, isn’t he supposed to be in the middle of doing six months of all-day labor back in Virginia for the Rihanna beatdown? Is the court letting him out to do a tour? I certainly hope they don’t consider returning to the concert stage to be “community service,” even though a portion of the proceeds from the tour are supposed to go to charity.
Maybe someone in the justice system will note that only two months ago, Brown was sentenced to five years’ probation, six months of community labor and a year of domestic violence counseling. Let him finish all that, then go back on the road.

Chris Trades Nightlife For Road Work
Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009
f you’re one of the many who’ve been dying to see Chris Brown in an orange jumpsuit, you’ll be getting your wish.
The AP reports Virginia police as saying the disgraced singer “will remove graffiti, pick up trash and wash cars” as penance for his vicious beating of former GF Rihanna. Brown will be doing his six months of labor near his home of Richmond. Too bad he won’t be doing any of that grunt work in SoCal, where there would be plenty of paps to capture images of his downfall.
Somehow, I doubt that any of the “friends” who have tried to excuse Brown’s actions will be out there with him in the hot southern sun, helping him pick up trash.

Chris Parties His Probation Away
Thursday, August 27th, 2009
Chris Brown claims to be “depressed” over being sentenced for assaulting Rihanna, but you certainly couldn’t tell from his actions after leaving court on Tuesday. A few hours after being sentenced to six months of community labor, plus five years probation and a year of domestic violence classes, Brown was out on the town, getting his party on.
People reports the disgraced singer joined a posse of his buds at the trendy Guys & Dolls Lounge in West Hollywood, where the group ordered several bottles of champagne. While being sentenced to hard labor seems like an odd thing to celebrate, this little party may lead to more trouble for Brown. The stipulations of his probation include no drinking or frequenting establishments where liquor is sold.
So what is the under-21 Brown doing in a bar? His probation office in Virginia may be having a talk with the singer about his conduct, since it could land him behind bars instead of inside one.
