Rihanna ‘Says Chris Brown Knocked Her About Before’

On paper, a fight between weedy Chris Brown and emotionless terminator Rihanna would only have one result - with Chris Brown’s head ending up on a metal spike.
In reality, though, it might be a different matter, what with Chris Brown’s arrest for allegedly beating up Rihanna until she was hospitalised and all. Worse still, it’s being reported that Rihanna claims that this isn’t the first time that Chris Brown has attacked her.
Honestly, if this is true then Chris Brown should pick on someone his own size. Like a gerbil, for instance. Or a hobbit. Or fun-sized Mars bar.
Men of the world, feel free to rejoice. Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day and it doesn’t matter what you’ve done to your girlfriend - forgot her birthday, chatted up her sister, crapped with the bathroom door open - you’re almost guaranteed to be a better boyfriend than Chris Brown, on account of you not having been arrested on suspicion of choking your loved one until she fell into unconsciousness and then legging it. It’s a small victory, admittedly, but it still counts.
However, let’s not be too hard on Chris Brown. After all, his stylist thinks he’s a lovely boy - plus, as one of our commenters has kindly pointed out, “MAN….. I DONT KNOW Y ALL Y’LL POEPLE IS MAD @ HIM 4??? SHE IS THE ONE WHO GAVE HIM SOMETHIN SO SHE GOT WHAT SHE GOT… I ANIT MAN @ HOM @ ALL…. HE GONNA KEEP IT PIMPIN AND DO WHAT HE DO SOooooooo… ya’ll need to leave him alone!!!!” which we think means it’s OK to hit women if they’re being arseholes to you. And there’s no arguing with flawless prose like that, really.
And anyway, maybe Chris Brown’s alleged assault of Rihanna was just a sickening one-off, a mistake made in the heat of the moment that was completely out of character and one that he regrets profoundly. Except that Rihanna reportedly says it wasn’t. ABC News reports:
"If Chris Brown did indeed hit Rihanna early Sunday morning, it may not have been the first time. According to TMZ.com, the pop star told cops that her R&B singer boyfriend had a history of abusing her before a weekend attack that reportedly left her bruised and bloodied, and the violence was getting progressively worse."
If this is true, then we’re not sure why Rihanna chose to stay with Chris Brown. There are many complex psychological reasons why a woman will stick with an abusive partner, but in this case we think that Rihanna just realised that allegedly being smacked in the face time and time again by Chris Brown was still better than anything she did with her previous boyfriend Shia LaBeouf.
Of course, though, looking back at her most recent album, it’s clear that Rihanna was desperately trying to warn us of her predicament. Look at what she called some of her songs - Cry, Hate That I Love You, Shut Up And Drive, (Please Stop Repeatedly Smacking Me In The Cheekbone With That) Umbrella, (While I’m On The Subject, Could You Also Please Refrain From) Breakin’ Dishes (Over My Head All The Time)… if only we’d been paying more attention, none of this would have ever happened.
Rihanna Tells Cops Chris Brown Threatened To Kill Her

The expression “I’m going to kill you” is definitely overused. We’re all guilty of saying it at some time or another when angry with a person. But when the other person involved winds up in the hospital, it’s another story altogether.
Yesterday the DA asked detectives to get more info for their case against Chris Brown. And the details they found are quite disturbing.
Rihanna has been talking to the cops this whole time, and according to them, she’s being cooperative.
According to E! News, Rihanna told the police Chris choked her while threatening to kill her. That caused her to lose consciousness. The two had just left Clive Davis’ Grammy party on Saturday night in Chris/ Lamborghini. That’s when everything fell apart.
Chris pulled his car over in the Hancock Park area of LA, which is when Rihanna says she took the keys out of the ignition and tossed them out the window.
She says Chris then tried to go out and find the keys, and when he couldn’t, he put his hands around her neck and said, “I’m going to kill you!”
Rihanna says that she lost consciousness, and that when she came to, Chris had already left! Some boyfriend he is! Rihanna’s right eye was allegedly blackened and badly swollen and she had handprints on her arms.
The responding officers were so concerned about her, they drove Rihanna to the hospital in their squad car instead of waiting for an ambulance. Officers took two sets of photos of Rihanna: one at the scene and the second after she was admitted to Cedars-Sinai for treatment. Those pictures will most likely be used for evidence against Chris.
And speaking of Chris, we haven’t heard much from his camp since he was released from jail on Sunday night. We’re expecting a statement from his lawyer Mark Geragos or his publicist soon!
He can’t just run away from this situation that keeps sounding more and more serious!
Meanwhile, Chris Brown’s sister Lytrell Bundy, or Tootie as she’s called, has just spoken to Extra about her brother claiming he's never been the violent type.
She says he’s never been one to get in fights. She tells them, "He's always been a good boy -- never violent.”
When asked about how Chris is dealing with his arrest and the fallout, Tootie confesses, "He's doing good. He's coping... He's doing as... as to be expected."
When asked about the siblings' childhood together, Tootie says, "It was a normal sister and brother relationship. Nothing different, nothing strange."
Rihanna and Chris Brown Argument Was Over Infidelity

There are new details surrounding Chris Brown and Rihanna's alleged argument the night he was arrested for felony battery charge.
New reports suggest that the argument between the couple started when Chris got a phone call from a young lady after him and Rihanna left the Clive Davis party.
"Rihanna got a glimpse of the phone, saw the name and number and immediately recognized who it was. She went ballistic and began to “beat the sh*t” out of Chris (while driving).
"She was so uncontrollable, that Chris began to fight back in self defense, which ensued the fight," reports Bossip.
Regardless of who started the argument, there's no excuse for domestic violence! Tons of couples argue over infidelity every day, it doesn't mean it should result in a trip to the ER.
Meanwhile, Rihanna's grandmother has spoken out about the incident to the Barbados' Daily Nation newspaper. "I don't want people to worry. Rihanna is fine and she is doing well," Clara Brathwaite said.
She denied claims by some media outlets that Rihanna had a broken nose. Her family is currently making arrangements for her to return to Barbados to recover. Sources tell Hollyscoop exclusively that Chris Brown has fled to Virginia and is currently staying with his family.
Chris Brown 'Knocked Around' Rihanna

New details have emerged about the midnight altercation between Chris Brown and Rihanna that led to Brown being booked on a felony criminal threat charge on Sunday.
"Chris knocked her around," a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE. "Black eye, blood, bruises. She had to be treated by a doctor."
A police source confirms to PEOPLE that the singer suffered a black eye as well as "a swollen split lip and two red and purple contusions on either side of her forehead."
The source, who described police photos of Rihanna, added, "She looked distraught and in a lot of pain. Her eyes were closed because she was looking down."
The Barbados-bred beauty, 20 – who is currently in "a safe place," says a friend – is cooperating with detectives, according to the Los Angeles Times. Los Angeles Police Chief William Bratton has said he expects the case will be handed over to the district attorney's office on Tuesday or Wednesday. At that time, the prosecutors could charge Brown, 19, with more crimes.
The case could be affected by how much Rihanna is willing to forgive her boyfriend. "Prosecutors back off somewhat when they see a couple trying to work out their own issues," says Steve Sitkoff, an L.A. defense attorney. But, says the friend, "I would be so sad if she went back to him."
In the meantime, both stars have canceled upcoming appearances: The NBA has issued a statement that Brown will no longer participate in their All-Star Game events in Phoenix this weekend, while Rihanna backed out of a Friday night concert in Malaysia.
Rihanna: Bloody and Bruised from Incident

More and more details surrounding the Chris Brown and Rihanna incident are being leaked onto the press.
According to new reports, Rihanna's injuries were severe and that she suffered two "huge contusions" which swelled up on both sides of her forehead. She also reportedly suffered "a bloody lip and nose," reports TMZ.
One of the law enforcement people described the contusions as something that "looked like an MMA fighter or something ... [It] looked like she was growing devil's horns."
Earlier reports suggested that Rihanna also suffered from bruises on her arms and face as well as bite marks on her arm and leg. At this point Chris Brown is making Ike Turner look good. It's so sad!
UPDATE:
According to a source close to the investigation, Rihanna made the 911 call to police after Brown "fled on foot" from the scene following the attack.
Officers found Rihanna in his rented silver Lamborghini "beaten really badly and hysterical."
Brown had taken the keys to the car with him and Rihanna was basically left on the side of the road with the car, so she called the police for help.
When officers arrived at the scene they said she had "visible injuries" so they took her to the emergency room at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for treatment.
