Rolltide, it wasn’t up to her to press charges. It is the state that does that in cases like these, not the victim. She didn’t “let him off the hook”, she isn’t with him now and he is picking up garbage! Women are victimized everday, you are right about that. But no one expects those women to exploit their situation the way they expect Rhianna to. When women find the courage to speak up and help others with abuse it is usually privately and after they have healed…and no one has any idea if Rhianna has healed yet. At the end of the day, she is a human first, pop star second. She doesn’t owe anyone anything. It is my opinion that people who make demands of victims are pretty cruel.

I just don’t “get” her she is beautiful but she doesn’t dance and she can’t sing so why/how does she have a career?

Every year American Idol brings like 250 ppl to LA all of whom at least can sing.

The hair, the clothes, the EYEPATCH! I agree with Nicola. Rihanna was pretty when she first started out, and even in that ridiculous Umbrella song, the short hair still worked.

Then she started shaving it and working a hairstyle that my ex-mother in law would wear. Now she looks like a fugly cockatiel died on her head.

She reads too much of her own press and must think she’s some kind of style icon. Or not. LiLo dresses better, cracky mc’cracky that she is.

@rolltideguy77 – you cant expect her to be a spokes person just cause shes in the limelight. shes young and thats alot of responsibilty that personally i dont think she could handle.

@Krissy I am not supporting her because she was a victim of abuse, I am not supporting her because she was a victim of abuse and did not press charges against the man that abused her. That sets a bad example for every girl out there in an abusive relationship. She let the man beat her and then let him off the hook for it. She never pressed charges. She isn’t with him because he was court ordered to stay away from her. I am not certain where you think I believe her healing should be dictated by her career. You are right her healing is her’s alone but I personally can’t look past her allowing her abuser off the hook. Enough women are beat, molested, raped everyday in this country and I just think she set a bad example. I’m not down with letting a man beat a woman and her letting him get away with it. It was her decision to do that and it’s my decision not to support her for doing so.

@krissy The word ‘preciate should have been the last thing to bother you in a song titled “Stickwitu”! Haha

lets see if luck stikes twice for Rihanna. she was lucky to get people to write those hits for her, i dont think shes talanted. she cant sing or dance especially live. Beyonce is way better
