Oh boy. Y’all know I love this girl. And I’ve been known to twitter-stalk her to fault. But why oh why oh why do we have to do this now?! Oprah, apparently, got Rihanna to ‘open up’ about her relationship with Chris Brown and that simply does not excite me at all! I know some people could just watch this girl cry all day over Breezy but I’d rather not. Peep the clip and click inside for more of me ish-talking this interview that I haven’t seen yet, lol.
So yeah, I don’t know if I’ll watch be watching this (which is a part of Oprah’s Next Chapter), especially if it’s going to be a lot of re-hashing of the events from that fateful, awful night. If Rihanna is talking about her ‘bad girl’ image and how this event plays into that (and her other insecurities) then I can see the appeal, but this clip makes it seem like she’s still just talking about Chris and still there. I felt the same way when she flipped out on that reporter in Esquire. And she very well may still be there; and it’s not for me to say she should have moved on or anything like that (I know traumatic events and intense relationships can take many years to deal with or move past, if it happens at all). I just, personally, don’t want to see more of this! At least I think I don’t. It is Rihanna.
Am I wrong for this? Is there something good that could come out of this interview that I’m just not seeing? Because right now I’m rolling my eyes, groaning, shaking my head and trying to figure out if we’ll ever get tired of watching women cry. Yeah, no. We won’t.
here’s my problem with these tears & everything. – if you are so upset about what happened & hurt ect – you dont go make two remixes with the man & publicly defend him.
i dont see anything new or helpful coming out of this interview by any means. for some odd reason i find it to be a step back for her.
Did she “get to make two remixes” with him, or was this something that the studios pushed? I’ve been under the impression that the studios and their managers have been trying to paint all of this like it’s no big deal.
At any rate, I’m not going to watch this. Very few celebrity-related things actually work me into a rage. This is one of them. That girl has been made out to be the bad one, or at least troublesome for “making” Brown look bad.
@Serenity – with the remixes…with what happened between the two, i highly doubt people would force her to do anything with him.
seems to me, she was willing to do it – cause as she said, he was the hottest R&B guy out at the time.
Yep… if you need sales to go up, go and cry on national tv… Byotch Pleazzeee!!! :/
Snore. This girl totally shits me. I do like her music though.
Then just don’t talk about him anymore, Rihanna. I just don’t understand how Chris Brown still has a career. It’s frightening to me the number of people that still come to his defense, and the number of people who still think it’s okay for everyone to just move on and party to his songs like nothing ever happened.
I can’t impose my views on anyone else, but I for one have erased all his music from my playlist, I turn the station whenever his music comes on, I don’t buy magazines that hint at “the Chris Brown side of the story” and whenever Team Breezy appears on Twitter, I cringe. I honestly think “Birthday Cake” is one of the most vile, disgusting things that have come out in recent times.
It may seem extreme and uncalled for by many, but it’s a stand I take against abuse. Rihanna and Chris Brown may think this involves just the two of them and how they choose to handle it may be their business, but the rest of the world has a way of handling it too, and they’ll just have to deal with it.
