[KP Hatman]

It is good that she is telling her story as a public figure, to the publi, however the timing is a bit suspect.. Her managers, and public relations people are trying overtime to maintain her career by making her keep quiet for a year. They wanted the whoe thing to die down before she spoke. She has to speak if she is going to promote an album. If she really had good people around her that wanted to help her, she would have never put herself back in Chris Brown's life....unfortunately victims of domestic violence often do that because they feel that they have no one else to turn to.

Chris Brown has evil in his eyes

[Jay The Undefeated Legend]

Brown is a no talent piece of garbage as a human being. He needs to go back into the ghetto and stay there. Everybody is sick of his lame apologies and stupid excuses. His actions say everything that is needed.

Nowadays, everybody expects to be able to do whatever they want and get away with it if they give a bogus apology or make a few TV appearances. At some point, personal responsibility and accountability must come into play. Brown sucks.

You must be a victim in denial, you need help! People witnessed witnessed his actions towards her, it wasn't isolated like many are! I think she is a brave young lady..........

[Big Dawg]

Dats good she didnt get back with him now cuz hes a wife beater. Chris Brown is a chump for doing this to this fugly woman. Next time Chris Brown is going to get locked up and the homies are going to take care of him in the pen.

[Big Dawg]

Chris Brown should kick it with Kayne and they can talk all day and beat each other off oh i mean up.

[Georgios]

No matter how much money one has, they cannot overcome their roots (DNA).

[who cares]

She got what she deserved. I don't know any Black girls that would let you beat on them. NOt one. Trust she was hitting him first and he halled off and whooped that booty

[Winnetka]

so freakin' what. this isn't news.

[tinker]

rihanna, and brown where were the parents for both kids at the time, if the parents would been involveds in the relationship none of that would happen...! How blind can you be when you are in love, this wasnot love it was power, they were fighting who was going to control who..rihanna is really confuse , this happens when kids date kids too soon. they have no idea what's the meaning of true love. my opinion about getting bit up by a man,if the woman let the man control her they control up to the point to bit up the woman...!
love has nothing to do with it..!

[women]

To all women: always leave the men who abused you or if not , kill him in self-defense, otherwise he will kill you.

Rihanna should not had slapped him. Both should be punished equally.
We were not there and do know what all occurred.
She cannot have him and she is trying to destroy him with the help of the media.
I would call for a retrial; he should have the money; go back to court and fight that case.9695

With logic like that, its no wonder that you are as stupid as the day is long.

I've beat almost every woman I've lived with. Realize people, that some of us were raised to use violence to get our agenda through and without serious introspection and help, die clueless. Good movie that presents the issue stars James Coburn and Nick Nolte, "AFFLICTION".(Men that were beat by their fathers and never understand why their relationships always fail.) Beware of instructors with personal issues teaching those 52 week anger management courses,(typically female). Some are there not to teach, but rather to get "pay back" and abuse batterers. It took a few years and hard work..and now I have absolutely no urge to use violence to get my way. No woman is worth getting angry over. Be careful with whom you get involved with men. Always leave yourself an out that doesn't involve kicking her ass.

[good guys]

it is always the woman who was brutlly attacked. When I ws driving th car and pointed out a farm that my parents wee going to buy for he kids 40 years ago, the anger that came out of this woman who asked "how many whores have I showed the property to and grabbed my head and stated slamming into the center consuel as hard as she could because of her insecurity. She almost broke my nose, and got in an auto wreck and then went ahead and claimed I was verbally abusive. I was 8. Chris is wrong and i have little respect for his bullshhit fame. t it is very one sided. But there are two sides to most, stories. Besides, grow up and leave his pager alone or if you don;'t like it leave him. How many times did she hit him.
