As most people know, Rihanna was brutally beaten in 2009 by her then-boyfriend, Chris Brown. It's been a few years since the two of them split and the Barbadian star has flourished into a beautiful, independent woman; but now she is being pressured to forgive her former boyfriend for beating her.
Sources reveal that family members want Rihanna to forgive Chris Brown for the gruesome and violent attack he delivered in 2009. Apparently some people don't take domestic violence seriously, even though it could've ended far worse than a battered face for the singer. The National Enquirer spoke to a cousin of the Barbadian singer by the name of Nicola Alleyne. Nicola says that she likes Chris Brown and she feels that he and Rihanna should get back together.
"Chris made a mistake, but I forgive him. I think he got hit too. Knowing Rihanna like I do, it was a fight. But I would love them to be back together. I really think Chris still loves her," said Nicola.
Well if that isn't just the most idiotic thing a person could say. It seems that someone has celeb-envy and thinks that Chris Brown is a "nice guy," even though he battered this woman's own flesh and blood to the point of not even looking like herself. Maybe Nicola Alleyne should mind her own business and find her own woman-beating pig to follow around with battered wife syndrome. Rihanna is doing great on her own and she would be best to stay away from this man.
It's saddening that the relative of the singing superstar thinks she has the right to "forgive" Chris Brown for what he did to her cousin. It's not her place to forgive him and it certainly isn't her place to give relationship advice if she thinks a woman putting up a fight is grounds to be beaten like a street thug. Let Nicola Alleyne slum around in whatever ghetto life she wants as a beaten and disrespected hood-rat. That is not Rihanna's style and it very well shouldn't be. She proved that when she kicked Chris to the curb and moved on with her life. She's evolved and hopefully a more discerning taste in men comes with her ever-evolving character.

And if I was a gambler, I'd bet you didn't know how to use Google to do even the lightest research of people. :)
your "harsh words" come from you being a rabid Chris Brown fan who seems to think that it's no big deal that he literally brutalized a woman as if she were a man in a bar brawl. Not to mention you couldn't even take the time to google my name, find my FB or what-have-you (which only takes 2 seconds for even the beginner internet user) To find out just enough about me to try to back up your little fan-boy attack.
:) Fact: Chris Brown beat up Rihanna.
Fanboy drivel: so-in-so can't keep a man that's why she hates woman beaters.
With your logic -- you're basically saying that in order to keep a man, a woman should put up with being beat? I wonder what kind of shining upbringing you had to develop such outlooks on life...
Reality, on the other hand, feels quite nice.

LOL. ROFLMFAO! *facepalm*
Pretty racist statement, as it implies only black men beat their women~we know full well that isn't the case!
P.s. I think Hope Carson and Chelsea Hoffman are the same person. hehe
PS -- hope is another writer for the media company that owns this site; we can't be the same people.
As for Brown, he's a menace, a disgrace, and he's no man of any kind. He doesn't deserve to be forgiven. And sooner or later he will brutalize someone else.
-Rubs chin.- I think I have just brain stormed something phenomonal!
Sorry to burst y'alls bubbles but the cousin should stay out of the businees of R and CB. It's words of wisdom to invite people to forgive and forget but if you press the issue then you become one of those window clingons.
Chelsea is a journalist of sorts and it's her 'duty' to write about what she pleases regaurdless of the time line. Just like she could write about the comparrison of Pearl Harbor and 9/11. Those two events are YEARS behind us all but are still talked about amongst persons today.
Chelsea, I agree with you on this 'debate' since that is what it has grown into dispite the stupidity of other partcipants. It's yup to R to forgive and forget, HER choice. Would she be totaly stupid for going back to CB yes she would.
Aint any of you heard of the phrase. 'Once a cheater, always a cheater?' It applies in many diffrent circumstances even in assult and batter in domestic abuse cases.
As for all the other bullhocky going on in this conversation; the lot of you should just feel ashamed of yourselfs cause you have done what majority of idiots do and show your ass on line like it going to boost your ego.
Now with that being said, BACK to the beginning of the conversation.
I don't advise any woman to give in to anyman in a domestic abuse case, no matter who started it first. People say that when a woman hits a man first they are putting themselfs in a mans position... yeah... you got that right but she still has a vagina and you can still be put away for hitting ya lady. If you're star struck and have a subconscious acceptance of someone just because of who they are then shame on you. If CB wasn't a celeb- you would be mad as hell cause he beat his woman.
Thank people. We have to keep our streets as well as our home safe from violence.
"mr. brown" has issues, and he attracts people with issues.. That's why the rabid defense by people whom he doesn't even know exist is so amusing to me right now. lol.
You know, have you ever read Nikki Sixxs Heroin Diaries? Or Motley Crues: The Dirt?
You should they are both wonderful reads but anyways back on what I was about to say. There are things far worse than what CB has done IE. Vince Neil getting into an alcohol induced car accident that resulted in the death of one of his friends. Nothing is worse than the mental torment that he has to live through for the rest of his life in result of that accident. No amount of man made punishment, no mount of jail time. As a being of sin, no one should judge on what people should be punished for because they, themselves have sined. I'm not a bible hugger, might I add but I have strong beliefs that if you can't put up, then shut up.
CB is scolded for his acts from that day, and he will forever be scorned because of; no matter the publicity cause he will ALWAYS have to face the fact mentally... that he layed his hands upon that woman. A woman, he said he loved.
If I can specify tourment; that is tourment in it's most devistating form.
Well it's good to know that your inadiquacys havn't limited you to not being able to tell like minded people apart. I applaud you for distinquishing a black bird from a red bird. Bravo.
I was just super irritated at her audacity for trying to stop Rihanna's Family from speaking their mind on this situation. => she is far gone & needs some serious psychiatric evaluation.
I don't see her actually putting forth an effort in TRYING TO STOP her family. I see an honest opinion and you're daft if you think that someone is so afar gone that they need psychiatric evaluation; have you underwent such processes? Are you a psycharists? If not, polietly, shut up because you are preaching a word in which you're ignorant in, my dear.
Up till now she can't reconstruct the fateful event on the February 2009 yet she ignorantly insist on talking about it. Nothing new in all her report except for the fact that she drenches hers in bias and hate. Its like she is a fat ugly and lonely female looking to blame someone else for her personal failures.
If you know one thing if anything at all, how to be a utter dumb arse. Another set of applause sent your way. Welcome to the country in which you are able to speak about anything you please. If you don't like it, then look the other way. As for her looks, can you honestly tell me that you have seen Miss Chelsea in person? Have you had a meal with her, shook her hand or looked her in the eyes? If not... -Shakes head.- Then you are blind and even more stupid than I first presumed. I can't say 'you can't' cause obviously you can (for some reason someone gave this retard a keyboard and computer) but if you don't know such things then keep your lips shut and your fingers still.
A journalist should be creative & honest especially neural to allow the readers make up their own minds. Not ram her opinions down people's throats constantly for almost 3 years.
Situation has changed, & as a jounalist she has to factor these changes in her reports. But instead chelsea sound like a broken record playing the same song the millionth time.
Lol and youa re any diffrent? Journalist are free to write about what they please just as you are to sit here and complain like some middle school girl experincing her period for the first time. I don't know Chelsea personaly nor will I ever but by god if anyone sounds like a broken recorder it is yourself. Constant 'bish bish bish, whine whine whine. Mope, complain, blabber..... Bish, bish bish, whine whine whine. Mope, complain, blabber..' Need I elaborate more? Pratice what you preach and stop typing.
Lex, what happen has happened, NO ONE CAN CHANGE THAT!
Just like you can't change this woman from harping on something that she feels that she needs to talk about. Sooooooooo silence your stupidity.
Charlie Sheen or Mel Gibson has she written? & those guys did worse that Chris.
Obviously this post isn't about Charlie Sheen or Mel Gibson, how about you go out and find one instead of lingering on someone elses pulse and insulting them due to your possible lack of self esteeme. That, they have psychiatric evaluations for.
No matter what the topic is, but 3 years is too long for any topic except 9/11
Except? If a person is passionate about something, like yourself and your constant bitching and bashing of Chelsea, then they are entitled to continue to drag out the topic. It's called the 'X' button my dear. No one forced you to read something that someone else posted. The fact that you keep posting over and over again, despite your relutancy to shut up, shoes your fortitude to sound like the broken recorder you just preached about. That my dear, the past 3 minuets of my life you disturbed, is 'too long for any topic.' Moving on.
Chelsea, aimed at chris cos she isn't over her ex boyfriend & what a long time to grudge someone else for that.
That is mighty mature of you, throwing up someones real life situations that have nothing to do with the main topic, AKA Chris and Rihanna. You want to point any more fingers little boy?
If we learn to correct and encourage kids that do wrong in the right straight and narrow path, instead of taunting, bullying and destroying them perhaps we'd break the cycle of hate and make the world a better place.
Correct and encourage kids that do wrong in the right straight and narrow path... Wow as if I thought you couldn't be even more hypocritcal.
... instead of taunting, bullying and destroying them... are you not taunting, and destroying someone just because they want to voice their repetitave opinion on a topic? ...
Perhaps we'd break the cycle of hate and make the world a better place... well Fonz, why don't you start us off with your spectacular performance of what to do and not to do. If you want something to change, then it's up to you to start the change.
Now that all that was said.
King Makers, I thank you for responding to my comment because wether I got through that metaphorical thick head of yours, I still get my gather points either way. Though you did make a few good points when you agreed with me and partcipated in a real conversation instead of trolling someone; you're still in the wrong, the wrong that you are blatently trying to shove down Chelseas metaphorical throat. You're probally going to read this and try to debunk everything I said but keep this in mind.... at the back of that tiny sub-conscious you have; your mind is secretly agreeing with me about your little man syndrome and that you should just be quiet now.
Now, I have a phone call to make; if you do respond, I would like a real intense conversation to come back to instead of finger pointing; kay little one?
Might wanna try looking up definitions to words like "journalist" "reporter" "commentator" etc etc.... unless you are meaning to look ignorant.. If that's the case, keep at it; you're making us laugh over here.
Dear Diary, today I commented on a gather article about Chris Brown. One of these days he'll notice me....
*yawn*
Ok so here's a heads up on your next article since tomorrow the internet will be buzzing with the news of Chris Brown's sold out show in Toronto tonite that kicked off his FAME tour and yes the fans are already raving about it on twitter right now. 15000 in attendance and you think Chris Brown gives a monkeys ball what you think of him? Now that's laughable!!!! Reminds me of the 20,000 that lined the streets of Time Square for two days about a month ago, there really must be something with this Chris Brown character that you can't seem to get enough of...wonder what it could be!
That's redundant. This article has nothing to do with what Chris Brown thinks of what other people think about him. -Shakes head.- Never ceases to amaze me the ammount of shit that people just throw out there in order to make someone look like the bad person.
I don't go to McDonalds and tell you how to do *your* job ;)
I need to start doing that to people especially if I get to make a complete fool out of myself like the folks who have posted on this conversation. Lol. Maybe then I would understand their pointlessness. Maybe, just maybe but entil then; on to bigger and better things folks.
And Lex poor poor Lex sorry my statement went over your head...well here it is so that even you can understand. The inference was that Chelsea thinks her opinions (indicated by all the obsessive articles written to slander or further promote hate towards Mr. Brown) matter to everyone even Chris Brown...sheesh and you people think you are the smart ones!
Thanks for reading!
Might wanna have a shrink look at that. I hear they have a pill for all the flavors of the fruitcake now.
Articles I've written about Chris Brown (2)
Comments by Kendra A. crying about my articles about Chris Brown (11+)
By sheer numbers, it's obvious who's obsessed.
Thanks for playing :)
2 articles about Chris Brown by me
That's funny since I actually read your comment and you have failed to tap into the true understanding of what I posted. Keep talking. :)
And
2. As I have already stated Chelsea is in a way a journalist and she can write about what she pleases.
If people are going to get their panties up in a bunch because of something someone wrote about then thou shalt not cast the first stone. There are plenty of you that have talked about a long over due subject and here you are blatently casting stones at Chelsea. Yes she has done her own stone casting and I'm not on anyones side when it comes to the immaturity presented in this conversation, but if you don't start no shit, wont be no shit.
Violence should be ended all around but the fact is, it isn't and as I have to re-touch and explain more.... just because a woman hits a man first dosen't mean that gives him the right to beat the hell out of her. It takes the bigger person to end the arguments and the fighting; offer a way to resolve the issue instead of feeding into it. Weather CB hit R first, or vise versa they were both a bit childish in their own way neither should get back into the relationship no matter who wants to condone it, because it's pretty obvious that the two couldn't date 2 years without voilence. Maybe he should get himself a new punching bag. Now.... should Rhianna forgive him, THAT is up to her. Who gives a rats arse what other people think she should do.
Opinions are opinions folks, get your panties out your crack.
( I like poking them with sticks, myself. :D)
well the type who follow chris brown rabidly like this... don't really impress me in lines of mentality and intelligence; so I just kind of think they're amusing. Novelties to pass the time while I work at night.
ya know, it is redundant when comments like above "blah blah blah charlie sheen" over and over again - all because CB tweeted that when he did what he did.. and yah.. I don't think I've seen Charlie Sheen beat up a young woman; so I dunno. He's also about as irrelevant as dirt so I'd rather not write about the dildo.
As for Chris Brown -- he'll be irrelevant in a few yrs so gonna write what I can until he fades away like the rest of the canned-music types.
As for Chris brown.... Well I doubt this incident will fade. He has to face and deal with this for the rest of his life just like other celebs will have to face their fopas. Like Brittney showing her down stairs. Pairs in that sex video with Tommy Lee and god knows whoelse messed up.
Just another blame game, toots but keep on with your writing. ;)
bored.
:)
Now thanks for the comments cause I still get my gather points making you people look utterly stupid. Plus it also boost my ego neither of you have yet to bring something worth 'talking' about to the table. You know what they say... 'If you can't take the heat, then get out of the kitchen'
What next? Are you going to take after those rapest?
Hater.
Apparently not liking woman-beating Chris Brown makes you a racist now, even if you're a fan of Rihanna (who is black) a campaign volunteer for President Obama (who is black) and a supporter of Wyclef Jean running for president of Haiti (although I know he is SO not qualified in the slightest)
Guess someone needs to inform whoever's responsible for writing civil rights history and whatnot..
Rihanna has already forgiven Chris Brown. The National Enquirer?! So you only believe the NE when it involves Chris Brown and Rihanna? You're going to run with this story as fact without having actual facts to back it up? Talk about bad journalism. Only tabloid reporters do that. You believe the one about Sandra and Ryan are having a baby too?What about Jen calling Angie at 2 a.m.? The story is is ridiculous because it contradicts all the stuff that has happened since Feb. 2009! Rihanna said she doesn't hate Brown at all, the restringing order was unnecessary, she wishes him the best, she still listens to his music, "they messed up the Grammys," she follows him on twitter and so fourth. When her fans became angry because she did it, she told them to *beep* off. Rihanna has moved on! Brown has moved on. I'm pretty positive you write these articles for fun. You don't a give a damn about DV, Brown or Rihanna. You cannot brutally beat the human body with causing serious damage to the body. Do you have something that proves Rihanna was beaten so bad, she could not walk? She was in critical condition? Last year two girls were beaten with baseball bats by strangers and both of those girls were fighting for their lives. They were brutally beaten. There were so many lies written about this story and people are still running with those lies.
Just because someone sings or acts well doesnt mean they are a better person. I love the way Elton John sings but from what I understand IRL he is a pompous azz.
Take Michael Jackson now if you found out your adult male neighbor who was unmarried held sleepovers with kids under the age of 12 and slept in the same bed with them most of us would be on the phone to child protective services in a NY minute but when MJ did it somehow it was OK because he was a great singer and dancer and worth millions.
Get a little perspective here.
In other words -- you're using "weasel" language (google it if you don't know what it is) and "weasel" language is a sure-fire marker of someone who is too weak to bring their points to the table; Especially when they have no points.
For the record, I do have some less-than-desirable family members - and you'd probably shake your head at some of the things I've said to them. I don't hang out with lowlife criminals that beat up kids and women and other generally stupid, ghetto and white trash things.
What are public schools teaching people these days?
