Radar Online sent over this interview of Rihanna on the Bert Show on Q100 in Atlanta. In the interview she tells the show that she has no regrets regarding her interview with Diane Sawyer, and that she was honest in the interview depsite what other people say. When asked if she misses Chris Brown, she first said, “sometimes”, and then she gave a definitive “yes”. She also tells them that she is not dating Tristan Wild from 90210. She also admits that she is very “flirty”, but not dating anyone. You can listen to a clip below, or click here for the full interview.
Here is the World Premiere of Chris Brown’s new video for Crawl featuring Cassie. Hmmmm…Maybe Cassie sent the text message. I’m just kidding, but I do want to know who sent that text. I don’t know why Chris Brown and Rihanna is protecting the privacy of the infamous texter.
This is the reason I don’t jump on the bandwagon for Team Rihanna or Team Chris Brown. This situation has grown so out of control that everyone has a personal opinion, and none of them were in the car that night or in that relationship. I was told that the blogs were driving this feud, but honestly America is driving this feud. I have never seen people so invested into a situation. Women who have been abused have projected their abuser on to Chris Brown. Men who have been abused or just plain ignorant, have project some inconceivable myths onto Rihanna, as if she somehow deserved it. So when I saw this video at TMZ of a woman yelling at Chris Brown like she’s actually going to do something to him, it just makes me SMH! Honestly, are you going to use violence to teach Chris Brown that violence is wrong. Something tells me that just doesn’t work…
Katt Williams’ explanation of his arrest, sounds even more crazy than the actual arrest. While watching Katt Williams trying to explain the crazy events that went down Monday, he some how convinced me that he was throwed off slightly. [Necole Bitchie]

As if it’s not bad enough that the blogs are playing Team Rihanna vs. Team Chris Brown, their PR teams are playing the game as well. Rihanna and Chris Brown are debuting their videos on MTV on the same day [Miss Jia]
BTW did you see Rihanna’s art work for “Hard”. Please tell me this is not official:
Speaking of artwork and covers, Lex Ave has the cover for Alicia Keys new album, The Element of Freedom. I’m not going to read too much into that title nor make a joke about how Alicia Keys wishes Swizz Beatz was free from him marriage. [Str8NYC]
I have had my share of grief because people feel like I favor Chris Brown, thus I support domestic violence. Not sure how they come to that leap, but those are the accusation many of us who have asked the media to slow down and be fair, have received. I don’t condone domestic violence against women, or against men. I don’t think anyone no matter how weak they are should hit anyone else. (Glad we got that out the way).
Behind the scenes there is a war of truths going on, and it has been ignited with Rihanna’s interview with Diane Sawyer. The problem is that there is a big “gap” and huge “hole” between the time that Rihanna admits to finding a text message that proved Chris Brown was cheating, until the time Chris Brown started assaulting her. All Rihanna has said about that gap is that it escalated, but she doesn’t say how it escalated. Chris closest friends maintains that he is a good guy, and that Rihanna “knows” what she did during this “gap” in the story, and that it was completely foul and will certainly turn public opinion against her. Friends of both parties just want Rihanna to tell the “whole” story. So many people in Chris Brown’s camp want to speak out so bad that they have taken to twitter of all places to defend him:
In the history of their relationship, Chris Brown has not initiated a violent act against Rihanna. Each time a situation of violence has occurred, it was initiated by Rihanna and Chris Brown has always managed to control or redirect his anger.
People who claim to be closest to Chris Brown say the Rihanna interview was a media stunt, and that she was forced by her handlers to say certain things in the interview to restore her career, and to destroy that of Chris Brown. They also maintain the truth will come out oneday. I don’t know what’s true, but I do know the year began with Chris Brown and Rihanna and the year will end with Chris Brown and Rihanna.
Please Note: Chris Brown has taken full responsibility for the assault, and has not charged Rihanna with any wrongdoing. He has chosen to not talk about any of the details that lead to the assault. I don’t know if that was for legal reasons, or out of love for Rihanna.
That’s embarrassing that that’s the type of person that I fell in love with. So far in love. So unconditional that I went back. It’s humiliating to say this happened. To accept that? It’s a traumatizing experience.
You listen to this interview it will put some things in perspective for you. I always say, we behind the blogs get so wrapped up in the story that we forget there are actual human behind the celebrity. I must say I am so proud of Rihanna for finally speaking out, it’s always better late than never, and not only does she speak out, she seems quite honest and forthcoming. This interview is more detailed than what inside “sources” lead us to believe (almost made drop a tear). Although she doesn’t go into great detail, in part two she says a lot more about that night than what Chris Brown had to say. I am still suspect that her team decided to speak out before an upcoming album, it would have meant a lot more to me, if the interview wasn’t linked to a promotion. But like I said late, it’s always better than never…
It’s completely normal to go back. It’s not right. I learned the hard way, but again, this is what I want people to know. When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result in some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part. I couldn’t be held responsible for going back.Even if Chris never hit me again, who is to say that their boyfriend won’t? Who’s to say that they won’t kill these girls? These are young girls and I just didn’t realize how much of an impact I had on these girls’ lives until that happened.
Sorry, Alicia Keys but your private life just keeps coming into my inbox and onto my twitter page. I have never defended Alicia Keys actions, but I did give her the benefit of the doubt. Now, YBF has exclusive pictures of Alicia Keys and Swizz Beats kissing back in January of 2008, which is quite strange considering rumors were flying around that the two were seen kissing at the Museum of Art in NYC before Mashonda and Swizz Beats split. I see why celebrities want to keep their private lives private. Click here to read more…
When I was single, I had the mindset that you can’t make a man cheat, and if a man cheats it has nothing to do with the mistress. Now that I am married, I now see that women are a lot more sneaky than perhaps I thought before, and that anyone that is knowingly dating a married man, needs to fall back, until the ink dries.
If a man really loves you, why is it so hard for him to get a divorce and be with you? Don’t let him blame it on the kids because the kids usually know what’s up. When has enough time passed before you begin to realize you’re being played just like his wife? I don’t know if the statistic is true, but only 3% of the married men who cheat on their wives actually marry their mistress? Those that marry their mistress have high divorce rates, and I wonder why.
You know you have arrived when Spike Lee belittles your films’ success. In a recent interview with 60 Minutes, Tyler Perry addressed the comments in which Spike Lee compared Tyler Perry films and TV shows to Amos and Andy. Not only did he compare it to slap stick racist humor, he also used “baffoonery” and “coonery” as additional descriptions of Perry’s work. Now if Spike Lee would have picked on “Who’s You Caddy” then I wouldn’t raise an eyebrow. But Tyler Perry started in the theater with plays, and built a loyal following with his body of work. His plays were so successful that he was able to sell them on DVD, and claim 3 top ten spots for his sales. Naturally he decided to make a movie, and has been going ever since.
I would love to read that to my fan base. Let me tell you what Madea, Brown, all these characters are are bait. Disarming, charming, make-you-laugh bait, so I can slap Madea in something and talk about God, love, faith, forgiveness, family, any of those things, you know. So yes, I think, you know, that pisses me off. It really does.
It’s so insulting. It’s attitudes like that that make Hollywood think that these people do not exist. And that’s why there’s no material speaking to them, speaking to us.
Spike Lee problem is that he doesn’t no how to end his movies, and even if they start out exploring some deep socialogical issue, they lack a connection to real people. Where as Tyler Perry is able to capture the essence of real people, and real problems. Everytime you watch a Tyler Perry movie, you are shaking your head because you know someone like Madea. Maybe Spike Lee doesn’t have any Madea’s in his family or neighborhood, and every member of his family are deep philosophical people without a connection to reality, but to the surreality.
