Why celebrities continue to chime in about the Chris Brown/Rihanna situation is beyond me, but I realize I’m in a minority. I have avoided writing about the whole incident and aftermath, simply because I feel so strongly about the situation. I used to work for a domestic abuse non-profit that specialized in family counseling for domestic abuse situations with children involved.
Everything that should and could be said about this depressing situation has already been said, so I’ll spare you all my personal feelings. I guess I’m breaking my silence on this subject because this particular piece of news so infuriates and disgusts me, I just had to write about it. Donald Trump has chimed in, and his remarks are disgusting. He calls Rihanna a “loser” who “doesn’t deserve to have any future success”. OK! has more:
Donald Trump is once again speaking his mind — this time about the Chris Brown and Rihanna debacle.
The Donald recently lashed out at Rihanna, telling Inside Edition he would have “fired” the “Umbrella” singer for going back to Brown.
“She better get the hell out,” he says. “If she goes back, she’s a loser and she doesn’t deserve to have any future success.”
Trump is of course referring to the now infamous “alleged” Feb. 8 fight between Chris and Rihanna, which left her with a battered face. Something tells us Brown will never be appearing on Trump’s show, Celebrity Apprentice.
From OK! Magazine
One reason this is particularly disgusting is because Donald Trump has, in effect, taken a horrible situation and blamed the victim with a vicious character assault, all to promote his horrible television show. All of this coming from a womanizer and a misogynist is a bit rich, but I guess I have to give Donald credit for never hitting a woman. Is that how low the bar is set these days? Perhaps the best revenge would be to simply call The Donald a loser, and say that I sincerely hope he files for bankruptcy (again) very soon so we won’t have to hear any more of his “blame the victim” pearls of wisdom.
Is it wrong to agree with him? Not that she is a loser but that she should get the hell out? Oy… he could have made his point and been nicer about it though…
He has a way with words doesn’t he? “Loser” seems to be his favorite insult. He states this hypothetically, so perhaps he doesn’t realize that she has reportedly gone back to Chris?
All I will say is if Rihanna stays with Chris Brown, she should no longer be in a position that places her as a role model for girls. But calling her a loser and kicking her while she’s down isn’t helpful to HER at all.
And I hope I didn’t come off sounding as if I am blaming the victim – not at all! Chris Brown disgusts me and this is all his fault. Rihanna needs further help and she needs to get away from him.
Trump isn’t politically correct and doesn’t mince words either. Life is a game to him – you either ‘win’ or ‘lose’. Not deserving of success however is a little harsh for someone who is still very young and probably needs some help and guidance. I’m sure even Trump himself receieved some of that early on in life.
Donald Trump is so deluded he probably thinks he’s such a “winner” that his embryonic model wife would still be with him if he were broke, so I doubt anyone takes anything he says seriously.
If the only thing you care for is your business ventures, he said it right : in that respect, she’s the big loser in this story.
But she’s probably so much more than a businesswoman. Victims of abuse, they have such a good (and misguided) heart that they will forgive everything. I hope she’ll realize some day that she’s such a better human being than her abuser, before he beats her to death.
As for the Donald, he usually gives his sensible advice in an horrible way. I’d rather have that than “it’s none of our business and I pray for both of them”.
Actually, Miranda, you are making up your own little reality in your head. It happens that I read an interview with the current Mrs. Trump, and it was refreshingly honest. In it, she admitted that it’s true that she probably wouldn’t have ever gotten with him if he weren’t rich and famous, and she acknowledged that he would not have gotten with her if she weren’t a beautiful model.
It may sound a little crass, but it sounds like they both knew what they wanted in a partner and they both got what they went after. It doesn’t play into any romantic fantasies, but hey–they both went in eyes wide open and are apparently happy with their choices…so who’s to judge?
And no…he didn’t blame the victim for the assault. He said he would blame her for going back to the guy after he assaulted her. He didn’t say it beautifully, but he isn’t completely wrong, either. I’m sorry that this happened to her, but if she goes back to him…especially with her resources…then she is (I won’t call her a loser) extremely misguided and in need of mental care.
It is very hard to respect her. What will she teach her daughters when the time comes???????
Donald Trump is and always will be a media whore.
soory but Trumpy has a point…painful as it may be for Rihanna, he is saying what is usually called ‘tough love’
Sometimes people needed to stop sugar coating sh*t and tell the truth. My mama showed me the way…when my dad gave her a black eye (I was 4 going on 5 at the time) she packed her bags and moved out of there. Don’t wait for a second beating ladies or you will be the loser.
he reminds me of my fil and not in a good way. oh wait there is no good way.
Bet it won’t be long now before we have Rosies comments on Donalds comments!
I don’t know these people or all the circumstances around what has happened, or whether or not if they are back with each other. Someone asked what will Rhianna teach her daughters. What did “The Donald” teach his kids by having a very public affair on their mother? What has he taught his kids with his shady business dealings? You live and learn. Rhianna is a singer. I enjoy her music. She is also a very young woman. Jesus Christ can give her advice on what to do, but she has a mind of her own. Hopefully, she will learn from her mistakes, but comments like this from such a loser like Trump don’t help.
Sorry folks, he’s right.
wish she would respect herself more. so hard to understand with all of her talent & beauty why she would go back to that.
hope chris gets the help he needs but not at her expense.
Kaiser, good for you for volunteering to help women/children affected by abuse. My Mom is currently a volunteer child advocate for children who have been removed from their home (due to neglect, abuse, etc), and while it’s emotionally very difficult for her, the work is incredibly fulfilling.
As for Donald referring to Rhianna as a “loser”, it’s despicable. Especially considering that he’s no prize when it comes to his own treatment of women. And how do we know he’s never been abusive? He’s never been caught, but that doesn’t mean anything.
He’s not ‘blaming the victim’. If she chooses to go back to Brown, she’s making a conscious decision with a lot of facts staring her in the face. Nobody can say she had no idea he would get physically violent. She’s removing her own innocence.
Trump, even though a scumbag, is right. He might be stealing money from investors, but he tells it like it is.
Google Trump Ocean Baja.
“She’s fired. SCHMER SCHMERRRR….”
He’s absolutely right. She should switch careers also – her tenure as a sleazy pole dancer is calling……
It looks as if Donald is the loser this year … his show is tanking in ratings.
And is anyone interested in his opinion?
He’s absolutely right.
Listen, If RiRi is as volitle as the rumor mill is saying she is, then she needs to deal with her own violence and anger issues as well because even if she leaves Brown forever, she will be caught up in violence her whole life. NOT SAYING CHRIS BROWN WAS RIGHT!! Just saying that she may need a life adjustment for her own issues to finally break the cycle for good.
You’re not in the minority, I also agree with you.
If he’d said “Chris Brown is a loser and Rihanna is a loser for staying with him,” I might agree, but this is b.s.
Donald Trump is the real loser.
He needs to STFU. What a horrible thing to say. Of course she shouldn’t go back to him!!! I’m very disappointed that she is and I believe it’s very dangerous for her, but that doesn’t give Trump or anyone else the right to call her a LOSER. Also, if people are worried about the message this sends to their kids, why aren’t you teaching and guiding your kids YOURSELF. A parent’s influence should be the overriding one in a kid’s life. She is an entertainer, for crying out loud, not a fricking role model for everyone’s kids.
A harsh way to say it, but I believe he is right. She is weak if she goes back and will watch her own life spiral down fast.
you have understand, when we are on a hurtfull relationship we make a lots of excuse for our boyfriend/gilfriend, donald might have cheatted but he is right, stop making excuses chris brown is a psycho and rihanna is very needy thats why she went back to him,
now ppl should ask puff daddy? i’m sure he is going to give a lots of excuses and then he is going to talk about how great is jesus christ and how forgiving he is.
BY THE WAY RIHANNA AND CRIS BROWN ARE RECORDING A DUET TOGETHER IS COMING OUT THIS FALL WAIT FOR THE CD
He’s right.
She’s a grown adult, making a wretchedly stupid decision.
Eh, he’s right to some extent. Though if he worded it differently then that would have been better.
I was in a relationship with a guy for four years starting from sixteen to nineteen and it was verbally abusive. There was twice during an argument in which my ex ripped the shirt clean off my body. I felt ashamed and finally called it over. I feel like a loser for staying the guy for so long. I was able to get out before anything happened such as hits but I knew it would get uglier if I didn’t. I guess my whole point for rambling about a personal situation is to be like ‘I got out of it, why can’t Rihanna?’ Though mine wasn’t extreme as her situation.
Trump shouldn’t be calling anybody a loser these days, what w/ his Baja condo caper going bust and hundreds of people in on the deal losing tens of thousands of dollars. Trump is bankrupt in all dimensions – financially, tonsorially, and morally.
OMG! He is not BLAMING her – he is FAULTING her for going back to him!!!!
There is a huge difference there and your previous work is highly influencing your rationality here.
If Rhianna would have left Chris Brown, those words would never have come out of his mouth. SHE WENT BACK TO HIM! I think a whole lot of people agree with Donald on this one.
It was Chris Brown’s fault entirely. UNTIL she went back to him. That was her choice. She was away from him, she was safe, she made the choice to take him back. Therefore, she is a loser.
Ugh. What a pile of malevolent spew. Never been able to stand Trump and this is just a reminder why.
It’s so sad that so many of you have little compassion or understanding of her mindset right now. Most battered women go back. Belittling and denigrating them for their decision, regardless of your views, does absolutely nothing for them and isn’t supportive.
Donald Trump will get what’s coming to him for trying to use someone’s tragedy for personal gain. It’s just really sickening that there are idiots who would publicly agree with him.
Fair enough for trump to have an opinion but his timing is a little off to say the least!
The bottom line is WHEN YOU PUT YOUR HANDS ON SOMEONE, REMEMBER THAT THEY MIGHT HIT YO @SS BACK!!!
Donald, shut the hell up and try to stay out of bankruptcy courty, mkay.

March 10th, 2009 at 4:16 pm Listen, If RiRi is as volitle as the rumor mill is saying she is, then she needs to deal with her own violence and anger issues as well because even if she leaves Brown forever, she will be caught up in violence her whole life. NOT SAYING CHRIS BROWN WAS RIGHT!! Just saying that she may need a life adjustment for her own issues to finally break the cycle for good.
Co sign…completely. There have been several reports that she has a very violent temper. He’s wrong for fighting her. But she’s not the Virgin Mary either. Chris Brown is just as dumb for taking HER back. If for no other reason than she brings out the worst in him.
They can give brown and riri all the help in the world but it still does not change anything. If she stays with him for the rest of her life everytime he gets pissed she is going to be afraid that he is going to beat her again. How stupid is this? He will do it again, you can see anger written all of this mans face. He is 19 and a woman beater and I bet it isnt the first time with riri nor the first time he has done this to a woman.
I feel bad for women who have no moneyt and no place to go with their kids when they get into a situation like this but to have her money and contacts and she goes back to a guy who fkd up her face????? what does that say..she sure isnt a winner.
Yes, she is a loser because she sets a very bad example for literally thousands of other young girls who are being beaten by their boyfriends. Instead of respecting herself, this beautiful, talented entertainer apparently wholeheartedly takes back a man who has punched and bitten her….it sends a terrible message to other victims everywhere.
Trump is not exactly a mental giant, but in this case he is 100% right. He may be using strong words for effect, but the principle is sound. He is not blaming the victim. He is stating harshly what a knucklehead she is for getting back together with someone who beat her up. Period. That’s it.
If I had a girlfriend hit me, I would call her a psycho, get the hell away from her and make arrangements to give each other’s stuff back – I wouldn’t hit her back; so her hitting first is no excuse.
What, does she think he is different from every other man who takes out his frustration on a physically weaker lover? Does she expect him to change?
Since this is playing out in the public spotlight this will effect a lot of people’s opinions on domestic violence. She is setting a terrible example and instead of standing up for a little change of the social zeitgeist, she is telling the world that it is okay to let your man hit you…
Say it again Donald, for it may be the first time that you are right… “Loser!!”
why does this douche have to speak up on everything? just cuz he’s a toupe wearing millionaire, doesn’t mean we wanna hear his idiot opinions…
Jenna, in your own account… you stayed for 4 years… so maybe after 4 years we can point fingers… i dunno, what’s the term limit for hypocracy? cuz i think everybody here acting like they always make the right decisions are a bunch of HYPOCRITS!
Donald’s harsh…but not as harsh as getting your face thrown into a car window.
It’s a VERY sad situation, but it’s being dealt with poorly.
Two things to remember: THE FIRST TIME YOU HEAR ABOUT A BEATING ISN’T THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED.
AND…the first time a man hits you, you leave him. The second time, you call the police. End of story.
Calling a woman a LOSER who has been abused is absolutely nuts! Chris Brown choked her and He BIT her. Hannibal Lector bites people, not boyfriends. If she goes back to him, she’s mental but not a LOSER. She’s a human being for fuck’s sake. I hope she wakes up and gets help for her sake.
The REAL LOSERS are those idiots who look up to movie stars and singers as
LIFE MODELS. They are entertainers–NOTHING MORE. And, the REAL LOSERS are the JUDGMENTAL jackasses on the internet VERBALLY ABUSING someone who is already down. Somewhere in your lives, you lost your HUMANITY and COMPASSION. Go find it before it’s too late.
I would have to agree with him too. It’s harsh, it’s wrong of him to directly say something like that but it’s the truth.
Any strong women who loves and respects themselves should know when it is the time to call quits to the relationship. Especially when a woman end up in the hospital and realized she has been abused. There should not be a gray sided area to this situation.
Calling her a LOSER is REALLY HARSH! If she goes back to him, she’s mental but not a LOSER. She’s a human being for fuck’s sake. I hope she wakes up and gets help for her sake.

I noticed that Trump didn’t he say Chris was a loser and doesn’t deserve to have any future success. No he chose to single out Rihanna. Why am I not surprised. Trump is such an arrogant blowhard jerk.
i seriously hate this douchebag… why aren’t we as a society shunning him? he sounds like he hasn’t graduated from the second grade, using words like loser and fat pig… and whatever else comes across his retarded brain… how can he be so juvenile when he’s such a big public figure… i’m just posting on a message board and i already feel hesitant for calling him out… doesn’t he have any decency knowing millions of people are listening to him? i really dislike this self important, ignore, callous excuse for a human being…
Christina, the actual altercations didn’t happen until the very end.
Also, cuz makes you sound like a ‘loser’. It’s cause. Have a nice day! 🙂
the phrasing of your post was that the relationship was verbally abusive for a majority of that time… going back on your original statement and not being able to convey your point properly makes you sound like a loser…
sounds like you deserved it too… have a nice day 😀
not “was that” but “suggests that”
He’s right. She is a loser for going back to him and she shouldn’t have an future success. It’s unfortunate that in this day and age young children and young women, (heck, even grown women) look up to “pop stars” as role models as opposed to women who truly are role models, but that is the sad fact and she’s setting a dangerous and horrible precedent for them. It isn’t fair that she should have to think about everyone else, but it’s the life she chose for herself. And for all of you who basically agree with him, stop trying to qualify your response. It’s unnecessary.
Ohhh, and Jenna, it isn’t “cuz” any more than it’s “cause”…it’s because.
Well maybe “loser” was a poor word choice on Trump’s part, but she is stupid as hell for going back to that deadbeat loser.
I don’t agree with the loser bit, but he is right (never, ever though I’d say that about Trump). I question her decision to go back to Brown. Just what does he have over her?
Christina, I deserved it? Wow. Just because I disagree with what you posted in reply to what I said you believe that I deserve it. That’s really classy.
ShakingMyHead, I know it’s because. I was just using the shortened version that she used.
Christina: So let me get this straight: Jenna deserved the abuse she endured because she disagrees with you? Wow. For someone who’s supposedly outraged at Donald’s idiotic remarks, you’re certainly quick to condone abuse when it suits your own attempts at retaliation.
Oh, and it’s “hypocrites” not hypocrits”. Now do I deserve a beat down, too?
Rihanna hit Chris Brown many times before this major accident. She slaped him several times in the past and he never replied. She said it. She slaped him and hit him firts that day to. If a man don’t have to hit a woman, what is absolutly right, a woman don’t have either.
I think rihanna and Brown have a passionate relationship, in the wrong sense. Rihanna says she coudn’t handle seeing Brown with a another girl, that’s why she took him back. It describe perfectly the nature of their relationship. This is a passionate relationship, destructive and of course violent. Famous teenagers always have complicated relationship because there’re not rise in a family structure which make them feel protected. They have emotional problem. It’s true for almost grown up kids or teen celebs. They both need help. There is another things I didn’t see on your site: The message chris brown received on his phone was from his manager who dated him when he was only 16! She’s turning 40 now. Go on TMZ you will read the entire story. I’m sorry but I think the owner of this site is not impartial, you have to give all the news and not select what is ok with your personal statement. Rihanna is a victim, yes, I think Chris is to blame but he ’s in some way also a victim in their relationship.
Everyone in this story is a loser.
I’m a loser for having wasted 2 minutes of my time reading it.
I can understand Trump using the word so frequently, no one has more life experience than him when it comes to losses.
i think donald trump is a mean and nasty spirited person. he needs jesus in his life.He is not a perfect man eventhough he didn’t hit Ivana mental abuse is just as bad as physical.Rihanna is already a victim of domestic violence and now the media is making her a victim again.People need to leave her alone.
relax… it was just a joke and a comeback for implying that i am a loser because i used a shorthand version of “because”… so you’re allowed to be a big “B” word and i’m not? *rolls eyes*
This relationship will spiral out of control like that of Bobby Brown and Whitney Huston…this often is the result of mutual disrespect, and low self esteem of one or both parties…abusive behavior, albeit passionate, will always lead to someone being debased.
hmm…it was refreshing to find someone who shares some of my views on this situation. Then, I read the comments.
I was never a fan of Rihannas, and a huge fan of Trumps, but he definitely overstepped the boundaries. Calling her a loser because she went back is blaming the victim. Just because she goes back does not mean that she deserves to be beaten.
And for those that disagree with me, bear in mind that your agreeing with a misogynist (Donald Trump), who lives his life looking at women and their actions in a usually backwards and underhanded way.
Rhianna my girl hang in there, there is a better person for you…look at Halle Berry she rebounded with a vengenance…hang in there my famous friend
as a barbadian my girl pride for yourself and respect…should always come first…hang in there my sister
When she was attacked she was a victim, but now that she’s gone back, she’s a participant.
I don’t think RiRi really cares what Donny has to say. In fact, I don’t think she is interested in what anybody has to say on the subject – and that includes her parents, advisers, friends as well as you and me.
She went back to the guy that beat her to a pulp. That was her decision. She was a loser for doing it, in that by giving into what she deems to be ‘love’, she lost a lot self respect, integrity and inner strength.
And to think that millions of children look up to her as a role model. I like her, but she became a loser the day she went back to Chris. Period.
It’s really annoying to read this extremely ignorant idea that everyone here seems to have that abuse can only happen to women. Obviously Rihanna has been reported as having a violent temper and being physically (and possibly emotionally) abusive as well, and while I agree that what Chris Brown allegedly did to her was despicable, it didn’t deserve any more attention than all the other times that Rihanna allegedly slapped, punched, screamed at, or otherwise abused Chris. I’m sick of hearing people dismiss this woman’s (or any other woman, as all women have them) own inherent tendencies towards cruelty. Chris may be a terrible person, but if he should have to pay for something like this so publicly, so should she.
save your bitching and criticisms for the perpetrator of the crime, not the victim – its misplaced anger and proves Trump is a fucking intellectual and emotional neanderthal.
DONALD TRUMP I THINK YOU ARE UGLY,HOW ABOUT THAT, JUST LIKE YOUR THOUGHTS
WHO ARE YOU TO CALL ANYBODY A LOOSER,
CAUSE YOU HAVE MONEY, SPENT IT ON YOUR
SELF AND BUY SOME LOOKS AND MANNERS AND STOP WISHING BAD FOR PEOPLE’S CAREER
DONALD TRUMP I THINK YOU ARE UGLY,HOW ABOUT THAT, JUST LIKE YOUR THOUGHTS
WHO ARE YOU TO CALL ANYBODY A LOOSER,
CAUSE YOU HAVE MONEY, SPENT IT ON YOUR
SELF AND BUY SOME LOOKS AND MANNERS AND
RIHANNA ,GIRL YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AND GUESS WHAT DONALD IS UGLY UGLY UGLY
HE CANT STOP YOUR CAREER,LOVE WHO
YOU WANT TO LOVE THATS YOUR BUSINESS
LIVE YOUR LIFE DONT HAVE ANY TIME FOR HATERS,CHRIS MADE A MISTAKE I AM SURE HE IS SORRY AS CAN BE,GOD SAYS FORGIVE AND FORGET
I AM A JAMAICAN AND I LOVE YOU AND CHRIS VERY MUCH TRY AND SORT OUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP BY YOUR SELF YOU ARE NO LOOSER JUST HUMAN
STOP WISHING BAD FOR PEOPLE’S CAREER
TRUMP, Y R U SO STUPID, U TALKING ABOUT A 21 YEAR OLD WHO U R 3 TIMES HER AGE U HAVE HAD SO MUCH LOSSES IN UR LIFE U TRULY KNOWS WHO/WHAT A LOSER IS. U HAVE BROKEN SO MANY WOMEN HEARTS EMOTIONANALLY LOSERRRR!!! JUST BECAUSE THERE IS NO PHYSICAL SCARS THEY WERE ALL LEFT ON THE INSIDE THIS BOY IS ONLY 19 AND PROBABLY MADE THE BIGGEST MISTAKE OF HIS LIFE U SHOULD B OFFERING UR HELP AS A GROWN ASS MAN AND TRYING TO GIVE OUR SUPPORT INSTEAD OF POINTING FINGERS TO LOOK BETTER AND SMARTER THAN EVERYONE ELES.
I feel everyone should let this situation resolve itself. Everyone always have something to say when it involves someone else. The best advice would be none because even if u could give either party advice, they would not take it because they are two young individuals that have to figure it out by themselves. No one was there when it transpired, so everyone needs to shut the hell up and let these to live their lives.
Even though I despise trump and his childish antics, I’m going to have to agree with this one. She is indeed a loser.
i mean lets b serious u cant blame rhianna you guys have to think about this she is still young and she is in love. just beause she is a celebrity doesnt mean she is a bad role model. look into the real lyfe if it was any one of us we probably will forgive our boyfriend also. so ask yourselves if u were married will u still b wit ur husbad if he hit u? yes u would i mean they not married but it doesnt matter chris brown is salty that rihanna found out about his double lyfe(roxy from chicago)
Exactly, Sunny…exactly.
It’s sad, and it’s infuriating.
look people, no one knows what really went on. Chris Brown is just a child himself. we only heard one side of the story. who knows, maybe the Rihana is the one in the wrong, what with the why thing are these day, women’s liberations an all. why don’t they both get help and if being together helps them do that then why not!
and by the way, STOP MAKING THIS ABOUT TRUMP, lets stick with the people involved
Blonde…seriously…you must be some piece of work…they both have anger issues…they both are very young and they both need help. None of us were there,but watching things unfold in the media..you know the media is so colorful…and gives a sane person reason for pause. Since I may be older than any of you here…l will say a few words on this subject. Being in love at an early age,we think we are invincible.We think we know everything. As a woman surviving from battery or we call it domestic violence…there are both sides to a story.
An altercation of heated words took place,it got so heated the worst came out in each other…but beating a person stupid is just that..STUPID! That suggests you need serious help. Chris Brown is a young man…full of himself…not yet seasoned. as for Rhi Rhi…she also has issues. As young as they are..and the resources they have…they could have turned this all around. Chris never should have battered her …Rhianna should have never been allowed to make such a decision to go back to her abuser. You love so intensely when you are young…you forget what you argued over…but when all is said and done…the relationship is damaged…and all the kings horses and all the kings men…can never put the the whole of love together again.
What should have happened was Rhianna needed to seek professional help and kept far away from Chris. It was over once it got physical…if you do not respect…you have no bond..over,broken,finished. Rhianna will come to her senses one day…she will look back and see not only did she lose her self worth…but also her credibility to herself and to her public,especially us woman. We judge the hardest. as for Mr. Trump..his harsh statement as harsh as it was..is reality. I ‘m not condoning him,hell I think he is one arrogant ass,but I know woman around the world are very angry at Rhianna. It’s a slap in our faces…and she should have never made any decisions in that emotional state of mind.
My children’s father, now my ex, played Russian roulette with me..sat us on a railroad track when a train was coming and I was pregnant with our son…I was just a baby having a baby…I went for help…asked my church to help me…they said things like, “I need to resolve my own issues’…”maybe I am acting out” or “getting dramatic” and exaggerating”..what I would have done had I had money for resources.
All I can say is…Rhianna needs serious help…’get your head out your ass and wake up!” Your beauty will fade,your voice will not carry you through when you are older…get out now and be a WOMAN! not a girl.”
I took measures into my own hands…I divorced the father of my children,threw his lame ass in jail…and he never laid a hand on me again! I was married at 16 divorced at 20.
I am a college graduate and professional artist…and NO ONE…can take your self worth from you..UNLESS you hand it to them.

rihanna is such a stupid young girl !
she deserves whats happend to her .
bitch
i thin she like it
She should get out. Abusers don’t change w/o a whole lot of therapy and the desire to change. But Kaiser is also right about Donald, he’s a loser.
I hate to agree with the wizard, but he is absolutely right. Get out while you are still in one piece.
I agree with Donald in full – whether people like him or not, it needs to be said. But you guys are all taking this out of context and focusing on the wrong issue (so typical of you fox-news watching drones)
Logically, his argument is:
IF Rihanna goes back to this Chris guy
THEN Rihanna is a loser and deserves no future success
ELSE Rihanna making a good decision and is not a loser and does deserve future success
If she does go back to this guy, she’s basically masochistic, putting herself in danger, and will probably end up in a very downwards spiral in a short amount of time.
She needs to recognize that this guy is dangerous, and she should not be anywhere near him – if she fails that fundamentally basic test, she’s not as strong or as smart as we would all like to think she is.
…I also happen to agree with the #70 comment made by @Lala. If she’s abusive, then she really needs help.
Unfortunately however, in this day and age, men are expected to act like monks – If I were him, I’d be using a camera phone to record her, and then it’s a 3-strikes and you’re out scenario.
Rihanna: SLAP
Chris: Rihanna, I understand you’re upset, but I don’t appreciate being slapped, please don’t do it again
Rihanna: PUNCH, SCRATCH “You #/&)/! (&!(% %/&%!( )/&!!!!”
Chris: I already warned you once. I’m asking you to stop hitting me. We both need to talk about this problem and resolve it before this escalates.
Rihanna: “F/(& YOU”
Chris: If you don’t stop this now, I’m afraid I may lose my patience, as anything from here-on-in is self defense.
Rihanna: KICK
Chris: SLAP PUNCH PUNCH KICK Why are you doing this to me? Does that really feel good to you?
…I used to have a girlfriend who on several occasions used tried to initiate sex by starting a fight.
She would get me in to a rage, and assuming I wasn’t able to lock myself in the bathroom, try to jump from the third-floor balcony or try the normal method of using a door to get outside to take a walk (all actions she would try and prevent), then she would try to get me to jump in to bed. Of course, being in a rage, not often did her little plan work out.
Far too often (more than once), it went too far and got to the point where furniture would be broken or I would hit her. None of these things I’m proud of, and I am to blame for reacting in a violent fashion but when she started doing things to me that drew blood, it became fairly difficult to contain my rage.
That relationship lasted way too long – I checked myself in to a mental hospital – twice – because of that girl, and later was put on mood-stabilizers in hopes that they would prevent outbursts.
MY health started deteriorating to the point where I got mysterious lumps under my skin (which took about 4 months to go away after I left her). Unbelievably, this woman still wants me to come back (but I’ve since moved to another country, and I’m happy where I am).
Now I’m back to my normal-self and off the stabiizers (I was never diagnosed with anything, even after the hospital visits), and my current girlfriend knows my history (and I’ve offered her to speak to the ex if she wants to hear her side too), and never have I ever felt like I will ever raise my hand to her… so at least my story has a happy ending. I just hope this Chris/Rihanna one can too.
