Rihanna on 20/20 (Full)
Posted by | Filed under Interviews, News, Rihanna
Check out Rihanna’s 20/20 interview with Diane Sawyer below.
My thoughts on this situation are the following. I don’t think Rihanna has any reason to lie because the media has already painted her as the victim and taken her side. I think she told her story honestly and candidly. I also have a gripe with the fact that people are stating that she is doing this for promotion while ignoring that Chris was giving interviews left right and center over the past few months on this situation ( Larry King, Angie Martinez, Sway on MTV), doing the same thing trying to repair his image in the months leading up to his upcoming release. It should be noted she didn’t mention the new album at all during the new interview, nor did they play any of her new songs. I believe Rihanna did this interview so that she doesn’t have to talk about it on the rest of her promo stops. What are You thoughts on the Situation?

Chris Brown released a Statement in response to Rihanna’s interview stating
“While I respect Rihanna’s right to discuss the specific events of February 8, I maintain my position that all of the details should remain a private matter between us. I do appreciate her support and wish her the best. I am extremely sorry for what I did, and I accept accountability for my actions. At this point, I am taking the proper steps to learn about me and grow from my mistakes. I only hope that others in similar situations can learn from our experience as well. Abuse of any kind is always wrong. The rest I leave it to God.”
