I'd sure hate to see how y'all react when Beyonce gets her comeuppance one of these days, because she's long overdue. She's never said anything bad about Ri so I'm not knocking her, but I find it hilarious how you all think if Chris tried this on Bey he would have got his ass whooped; as if Ri is somehow inferior because she submitted to his abuse. I bet Beyonce couldn't hold her own against Jay though, not that I wish this kind of misfortune on her, I just think you're all the lowest types of people to be exploiting an incident like this for the sake of ego.
Chill, i did not made this but i thought it was funny, and i hope ri is doin great, im not a fan but i wish her the best for the future.
T.I. wasn't caught with anything, he was caught in the act of purchasing, and there's no indication that they were going to be used to hurt anyone, unless you have that proof. I don't support him for those actions though. As for your radio business, that incident was in 2007, long before he started to do community service and rebuild a somewhat healthy image for his late 2008 releases, plus he is a RAPPER. 90% of rappers have all kinds of drug arrests, DUIs, abuse, possession of a weapon, etc. That's usually what majority of their songs consist of anyways, but because of a catchy hook it goes by unnoticed. Even Lil Wayne still has pending cases for several incidents and you see him with the best selling album of 2008.
It's still true people should wake up and not support such actions, but in reality and how it has ALWAYS been, rappers aren't looked at the same way as a singer. Mainly because someone like Chris has a lot more mainstream and young fans, and again he's a singer. You don't associate such acts with a singer as you would a rapper.
But seriously, T.I. needs to shut his mouth. His ass is about to go to jail for 1 year, so he really shouldn't be talking. That just fuels the bad influence. It's obvious Rihanna's in pain, but he's supporting Chris.
Yeah, I don't understand why he's supporting Chris when Rihanna just bagged him a #1 with his second single from his album. :*

Okay, I apologize if it seemed like I was directly attacking you, but I just find it really unnerving that people are making light of an issue like this. No matter how trivial this case really is, the allegations are gravely serious. I don't want to believe Chris is capable of something like this and I have immense empathy for Rihanna.
But what about the legal ramifications if the allegations prove true?
"I think it's unlikely -- first arrest -- that he's going to spend time behind bars," Linda Fairstein, former New York assistant district attorney and author of a new book, "Lethal Legacy" told Early Show co-anchor Julie Chen "The injuries -- and it's a shocking story to hear -- but I believe that Rihanna was treated and released. It's probably going to be a misdemeanor which means a weapon was not used. There may have been the threat of a weapon. So if he's exposed to that kind of criminal process, I'd expect a result like probation and participation in a batterer's program perhaps."
And the jury may still be out on the long-term damage to Brown's career.
"He's in a lot of trouble right now, but I would urge people to really wait and see how this unfolds, and let's not have a rush to judgment," said Howard Bragman, a celebrity crisis expert and author of "Where's My 15 Minutes." "I've been there alongside a lot of celebrities when they're accused of things. And what happens -- what people think happened is not necessarily what really happened. So I would urge people to have a little patience and let this unfold. That being said, this is going to be a long and uncomfortable ride for Chris."
"Let's say she (Rihanna) doesn't want to press charges or, you know, take a part. How likely is it that he is going to be found guilty?" Chen asked Fairstein.
"He could still be found guilty because of the very unique circumstances," Fairstein said. "Most domestic violence happens behind closed doors. And there are no witnesses, and the victim may or may not get immediate treatment. This is very unusual, together at a party and shortly after in a nice part of L.A., Hancock Park, police respond and find her in distress and injured. So I think it wouldn't be hard to prove."
"Will Chris Brown fans forgive him? Should they forgive him?" Chen asked Bragman.
"He's a young man. If it happened, if he's contrite and if we have the secret ingredient, which is time, then we will forgive him," Bragman said, "We have that in our culture and I think it's a good thing. And I hope he can get beyond that. He's an incredible talent. And it's a sad moment right now."
Yeah, no one is really gonna jump on him about this, since he's been such a good kid in the past. I really wish the REAL story of this would just leak out, everyone is making up there on scenarios of what happened, I've heard like five today.
I can't verify that it's true but I've heard that TI has been known to hit Tiny (his girlfriend), so I can't really say I'm surprised. I've also heard that a lot of the rappers/hip-hop producers are siding with Chris and even giving him props, really pathetic. Someone said Jay-Z looked visibly upset on the Grammy red carpet though. Wonder if he'll ever release a statement.
This is only my observation but it seems that the mainstream media is Team Rihanna. It's the urban community where I've seen more of a split, specifically the comments on some black message boards like Bossip, Sandra Rose, etc. Some are team RiRi, but it's crazy to see how many black women are willing to side with Chris and try to come up with all kinds of excuses and scenarios where Ri probably "provoked" him. I'm sitting there like "and if it were YOU, you'd think it was okay that he just totally ****ed up your face? If that were your sister you'd cosign on her getting an asswhooping?" I love my sisters, but goodness, are we really so used to being devalued and treated like **** that it's come to us believing we deserve it now?
Anyway, b/c of that, I'm not sure how this will effect his career, I personally think his whole career should die pronto, but it looks like he'll still sell in the urban community while his mainstream/pop fans will wash their hands of him.
it really doesnt matter who's is on whose side cuz god is on both of their side. Things happen thats life everything isnt perfect but i wish it was but this whole situation is crazy who would have thought it would come to this. Imma fan of both of them & always will be & imma keep praying for them.
Estelle, Akon, Quincy Jones, Jordin Sparks & Busta Rhymes react to the news..
Actor Terrence Howard tells Hollywood.tv that "everybody needs to get out of [Rihanna and Chris Brown's] way."
"Chris is a great guy. He'll be all right," Howard says. "And Rihanna knows he loves her." http://www.etonline.com/news/2009/02/70648/index.html
R&B star Mario recently collaborated with Rihanna on the now ironic track "Emergency Room," and Mario is now reacting to the recent charge against Chris Brown. On the set of "Extra," Mario said, "I know Chris... I've never known him as being an abusive guy. It's very unfortunate. Nobody really knows all the details. But it's very unfortunate." Mario added that he didn't suspect any trouble between the two. "Yeah, I've seen them together out before. They seem like a really cool couple." http://extratv.warnerbros.com/2009/0...n_arrest_i.php
Why is everyone making such a big deal about this? I mean, 24 damn pages?!?! Chris obviously made a mistake, and we all make mistakes. Give the boy a damn break already! It's not even your life to be concerned with. Ya'll are nosy ass bitches so get on with YOUR life instead of judging and worrying about others.
By the way, I heard from various places that Rihanna is a bitch (to her fans, and in real life). I knew she'd be gettin' a beaten from someone sooner or later, but never knew it would be from Chris.
With every scandal comes a lot of bizarre rumors. The first set of rumors were that Chris Brown and Rihanna had gotten into a car accident.
Then we heard a rumor about Rihanna supposedly giving Chris herpes, which allegedly started the fight. Then there was the broken nose rumors and now the most bizarre of all is that Leona Lewis was responsible for the altercation.
Earlier we reported that the attacked may resulted by infidelity on Chris' part and now Star magazine is reporting that hours before Chris' alleged violent outburst, he was seen flirting with Leona Lewis.
“At one point, Rihanna caught Chris flirting with Leona,” says a source. “They were carrying on and laughing, and Rihanna saw Chris with his hand on the small of Leona’s back. It may have been innocent, but that set Rihanna off.”
Apparently the couple has been fighting for months and their relationship was already at a breaking point.
On a side note, Leona is engaged to her longtime love Lou Al-Chamaa. The couple has been dating since she was 17. They currently share a flat in Hackney.
At this point everyone is going to analyze every single detail of what went down that night and over-exaggerate all the small things. We're pretty sure Leona isn't going to be too thrilled about having her name tied into this scandal

^Well Evan for one thing I'm sick (almost better) and have been home for the last two days so it's not like I have anything else to do.
And another thing, Chris beat Rihanna up BAD! Superbad! And RIhanna didn't deserve it.

Even, please shut the **** up this is one of the most hypocritical comments i've ever seen you post. If you weren't as nosy then you wouldn't have clicked in this thread and read about what happened. ATRL itself is a part Gossip site when you think of it. If you hate Gossip that much then I would suggest you stay away from forums, cause I guarantee each forum on the net has some.
