Btw, today, February 20th, 2009, is Rihanna’s 21st birthday.
So the folks at TMZ have obtained the photo above showing Rihanna after the beating at the hands of Chris Brown following the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Party. Reports indicate that the photo “has the appearance of one taken during an official domestic violence investigation.” This leak has sparked an internal investigation by the LAPD. Source
A person familiar with the situation, who was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter and requested anonymity, confirmed that the woman was Rihanna, whose real name is Robyn Fenty.
The person said some of the injuries shown in the photo — specifically the marks on the woman’s forehead — were consistent with the injuries Rihanna sustained. Source
Here’s a statement from the LAPD regarding the situation:
“The Los Angeles Police Department takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of victims of domestic violence,” it read. “The Department launched an immediate internal investigation and subsequently filed a personnel complaint. A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including termination.” Source
Chris Brown is fucked. Seriously.

Would you hit a child with all your strength if he/she hit you first? Probably not (unless you have a serious temper), you might find a way to restrain that child. It's always possible to restrain the woman, and trust me, being restrained can itself be a very unpleasant experience (think joint lock).
this is so bad....rihanna im so sorry chris is a monster....wat did u do rihanna?.....it must be something bad...dammmmm!!!!!!
the question is what would you do when you see your girl cheated on you?
give her a kiss or leave her or beat her.
everyone should ask him self this question befor you say a word on chris brown.
and thank you all
this is maddness what was he thinking , couples fight but this is outrageous and cowardly.
If a woman starts being physically abusive towards a man I think it's ok for him to restrain her. But if he's afraid that in restraining her he might lose his temper and hit her he needs to just walk (or run if she's off on one) away. Any man who hits a woman is not a man. At best he's a spoilt, immature, weak coward. At worst he's a misogynist. Either way he is the lowest form of bully. And Chris Brown is nothing but a whiney, pathetic little runt of a man who can only show physical strength when he's beating on his girlfriend. This kind of man would sooner beg than have to come into conflict with another man. He's piss his baggy pants and cry like a child. And once more, he KNOWS it. So he beats on women so he can feel powerful. I hope someone his own size kicks his ass and I REALLY hope Rhianna doesn't take him back. I realise how hard and frightening it is to leave an abusive relationship, but they're not married, they have no children and she is financially independent so it will be earier for her than for some women. And if she stays with him because she thinks he 'loves' her then she is an absolute fool.
Insecurity Phil. That and this 'syndrom' (what it is called I can't remember) where is a woman will date an abusive man in an attempt to make him better.
Just because your dad raped you when you were little and caused permanent damage to your anus doesn't mean that other people being beaten is "not that bad"
The "acne" is dried blood and other cuts from the beating, and the bruises are deep. That chimp Chris Brown must have slammed her face into the dashboard or other oddly shaped object, to cause that damage.
Please kill yourself immediately.
It honestly doesn't look that bad. A couple bruises on the forehead and a swollen lip. The acne on her face is scarier than anything else.
And what if a woman picks a fight with you?
WHAT THE FUCK IS IT WITH CHIMPS BRUTALLY ATTACKING INNOCENT WOMEN LATELY? HMMMM?
okay, that wasn't funny. nice try though. =]
Any man that hits a woman is a fucking pansy. Violence is never the answer, but if you gotta pick a fight, go do it with someone your own strength.
We still don't know what exactly happened, but often when you try to rescue a woman from her bf beating her, you end up getting beaten by both of them.
nah men in general are violent.
black men are usually violent.
chris,you're a motherfucker!
I don't like Rihanna too much but Chris Brown is an asshole. No woman deserves to be abused like that. He's a coward!
I guess she's gonna sing that Take a Bow song to Chris Brown a.k.a. Dead man
Chris Brown is dead.
A cousinf of mine married what appeared to be a nice guys, stable, etc.
This f*cking deadbeat bought furniture for their new house and told her to pay for it. She bought a nice car and he took it for himself, then he started to beat her.
She was in the early stages of pregnancy and she managed to get out once she had a miscarriage as she had a 'reason' to make it work when she was pregnant.
People that beat women to appease their own cowardice need to be ostracised from society.
There's no place for them in civilised society.
I'm sure Ne-Yo is thrilled Chris Brown kicked the crap outta Rihanna. That means more record sales and more money $$$$ for Ne-Yo.
will kill da m.....f.....nigga for u rihanna tell me where he lives, i do it painfully & slowly as possible. only f......homos beat women because they can't beat another man, my mommy told me.p.s. he should be in jail 4 sure but if u got money it's ok. the mfn should be in jail for months getting raped & then pay the bail, no jail pay the bail & go, see next week beat beyonce next time, pay & go free.these is the law ladies & gentlemen
bastard gave her a fat lip...wait
guy's a jerk for sure...but this chick is no great beauty anyway. Make up does a dam good job on her.
chris brown, I DO NOT like this violent person that really happened and beating her up like in a fight club or a barr/stripper club... sorry chris brown, but u took this situation way to far... hoping go to jail for this...
What a fucking asshole Chris Brown is. That gay faggot artist better go to jail I hope this fucks up his career.
Does jay-z count? Because I think that Jay-z is more of a worry than any of Rihanna's relatives.
Oh come on. He didn't beat her up. That's the way Rihanna looks without her make up. And the lips are from Herpes.
TNB.
Yeah! In related news, he must die too.
just sprinkle some crack on him and that's that.
yes, Phil...good question. The mind games have been going on for a long time and she truly believes she can't do any better and will just be alone because she's soooooo unappealing. I was with an emotionally abusive man for 4 years...he tried so hard with his little "innocent comments" about my appearance and but didn't count on me figuring him out and kicking his ASS to the curb when he was lying about everything and I found out. Guess his self esteem damage didn't really kick in...yah, sorry about your luck asshole....I digress.
Remember, in between the abusive comments and episodes, there are ALWAYS romantic and loving gestures. "you are the best thing that's ever happened to me" "you are gorgeous" "I am nothing without you" blah blah blah. In psychology world, they call that "crazy making" and yes, it throws you for a loop. Rihanna needs to see a counselor and read read read. It's very empowering!
you know what is pathetic? all the stories say she LOVES him and wants to be with him. if thats true, chris brown is NOT fucked. hell get off scott free, and prolly beat her up again, and again, and again, and again.
can someone tell me what is SOOOOO appealing about a dude who treats women like shit and beats the crap out of them? how could someone STILL love someone and want to be with someone after he did THAT to their face?
seriously... WHAT THE FUCK IS SO APPEALING ABOUT A DUDE LIKE THAT?!?!?
This pic bothered you while you were eating cooked flesh?
What an idiot. I hope she distances herself from him forever. I was in an abusive relationship for a number of years. Left it and am now happily married to a wonderful man. I just hope the DA's office will prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law.
set in*
thank god no broken jaw, though you need to take into consideration that this was taken before the bruising and swelling really set it so her face was looking worse than this I'd imagine
excellent example, they don't get out immediately ,they get used to it and before they know its too late...their lives and happiness are over, maybe not dead dead but inside they are dead. i forgot all about the frog experiment, thanks.
type in "emotional abuse" and "heartless bitches" and read what emotional abuse is... I guarantee half of the women posting will relate to it!
look at the frog experiment. They dropped a frog into boiling water and it jumped out immediately. THEN, they put a frog into lukewarm water and turned up the heat by 1 degree an hour and it fucking boiled to death!!!! This is why woman stay, they adapt to the abuse!!!
men like this start by brainwashing you into thinking you're ugly and have a fucked up body. That way, the woman will stay and grow used to all types of abuse...that no other man could love someone as ugly and worthless. It's so fucking SICK. Alot of men don't hit but get off on making their women feel diminished so they can feel powerful. It's happening a LOT. Woman, wake up to these sick fucks!
You's ever be's around a Black Bitch when its be angry?
If you's was you's be beating it too, Sheeeeit, her face has been beaten harder than that by Alabama Black Snake
i agree. once a man does this he should be done! if he did it once he'll do it again, if he did it to you he'll do it to your children. there is no cure for violence. he may seek help but its like animal instinct, it could come up unprovoked at the most random moment, a ticking time bomb. i believe in giving many many chances but violence against women/children gets no chance. abusers should be labeled like pedos and have to register and shit. its a horrible thing yet society down pays it. sad :(
What kind of man does this to a woman. Chris Brown should be held criminally responsible for what he did. This is not just about Chris Brown, this is for every coward that calls themselves a man that abuses women. Regardless of what happened, nobody deserves this, there is nothing that lame excuse of a man can say could ever justify what he did.
He really destroyed her.
