Women that are "solid as a rock" don't go back to their abusers.

She really is setting a *heinous* example.

Remember that Rihanna was already on her inevitable decline. After WFL became one of her biggest hits she instantly hit a wall. "You Da One" tanked so bad after the GMAYL-esque Clear Channel deal ended the label tried calling it a "buzz single." "Talk That Talk" is DOA at radio now as well.

well, in that case she could have just give it a go with where have u been, the most obvious hit-on-the-wait track on the album, rather than teaming up with the guy who almost beat her to death. this is just gross and disgusting.

Rihanna should speak out against domestic violence, says Annie Lennox

Annie Lennox has called on Rihanna to become a champion for victims of domestic violence.

Lennox believes that the 'We Found Love' pop superstar, who was assaulted by her then-boyfriend Chris Brown in 2009, would be "so f**king powerful" if she spoke out.

The 'Walking on Broken Glass' singer-songwriter, formerly of Eurythmics, told The Daily Telegraph: "Here is a young woman who has been through domestic violence.

"She could become a tremendous spokesperson for that issue but the choice is hers. It's not up to anybody else to do that."

The 57-year-old added: "Of course if she did choose to do that it would be so f**king powerful but it's her personal right to choose it or not.

"We all have our own issues and we have to deal with them in our own way."

The lyrics to the remix are DISGUSTING.

After the powerful song + music video combination of Russian Roulette which gave a hope that she matured, she killed it all. What a shame.

Read this extract from her new Esquire interview. She makes my sick to my stomach.

Esquire: What has been the Twitter response to the Chris Brown remixes?

Rihanna: Some love it, some hate it, some love it but hate that we did it. But the response in the end has been incredible.

Was that [the recording session] the first time you’d seen him in a while?

When would we have seen each other? We’ve both been working and touring. [changes the subject]. This is really good food.

It proved quite a controversial thing.

Well…definitely. Definitely. It caught me a little off-guard to be honest…especially the amount of…negative attention. Because it never occurred to me how this was a problem, you know. It really didn’t.

Because enough time had passed that it was OK?

I thought people were gonna be surprised that we finally did a record together, but I didn’t see how people could think it was a bad thing, you know? In my mind, it was just music.

Some people felt it sent the wrong message.

[Angrily] What was that? What message would that be?

You’d gone back to someone who put you in the hospital?

[Getting angry] Oh really? Did I?

Well… yes

Did I? Did I? Did I?

You went and recorded with him, yes.

Ok. In a completely professional environment. And on a complete professional note. I mean, if I went back to him [as a girlfriend], then that’s a whole different discussion. And if I ever do, then that’s something that y’all have to talk to me about when -if- that ever happens. Until then, look at it for what it is. I think a lot of people jumped to an assumption that was incorrect and they ended up looking stupid.

The assumption you were dating again?

Because of a song. How stupid. If I was together with every collaborator I worked with… fuck my life

Still, the lyrics didn’t do much to dispel that impression. His opening line is “Girl I want to fuck you right now/been a long time/I’ve been missing your body”. You reply “Remember how you did it/If you still want to kiss it/Then come and get it”

That was the tone before he was even on the record. You think it was going to about hopscotch or jump rope?

So neither of you for a minute thought “This is going to put the cat among the pigeons”?

I could never see anything wrong with making music

Maybe the thing is that as an artist your personal and private life are intertwined, and you’ve already played on this. The first song you put out after the beating incident was “Love the Way You Lie”, about domestic violence

Absolutely. But LTWYL was me as an artist working with Eminem as an artist, telling our stories individually. On a track together. I’m lost. I’m confused as to what you’re trying to get at.

That it’s hard to separate the person who’s been the victim of domestic violence and the pop star singing about domestic violence

I know. And that’s how fucked up society is. There’s a lot of shit y’all can’t get over. Y’all holding your breath on a lot of stuff that doesn’t matter. When you realize who you live for, and who’s important to please, a lot of people will actually start living. I am never going to get caught up in that. I’m gonna look back on my life and say that I enjoyed it – and I lived it for me- and God. This is turning into a tacky interview. What do you really want to talk about? I’m not here to [talk] about messy shit.

It’s just what’s been making the headlines recently

OK! So do you want to talk about everything on Google? Or do you want to talk about stuff that my fans want to know? Let’s get to the real stuff. The stuff that’s important.

What do your fans want to know

You tell me, as a journalist. You’re asking the questions and I give you the answers. I can’t give the questions too.

I’m sorry it’s upset you

It hasn’t upset me. It upsets me that you keep asking the same kind of questions about stuff that’s trivial. What’s there to talk about? Are all your questions like that? Let’s move onto the next one.

It’s just that you haven’t given an interview for a while. A lot has happened

You think I haven’t given an interview for a while? I did four this morning

Did they go any better than this?

We’ll see [when they come out] tomorrow.

Jesus, is that real? The journalist was really good though, he didn't let go of the subject. Just shows how clueless Rihanna is, I thought she was better than this.

Interviewer is good.

But... Didn't we all loved the ones we shouldn't, and came back to them with every possibility?
Someone hurt you with a hand, someone do it with a word or a look. There is a difference, of course, but it hurts exactly the same.
So didn't you all came back to the ones who ditched you in a more... softer way? And where is the line? A punch?

I've been there, or near, so cant judge her. She looks stupid, thats right. Thats all.
