In a new excerpt released from Rihanna's two-part interview with ABC this week, the singer describes how her relationship with Chris Brown took a violent turn.
A turn she might have seen coming, she now says.
“The more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for each other,” she told Diane Sawyer in the interview scheduled to air on GMA tomorrow.
“He was definitely my first big love,” the somber-looking star, who recently opened up about the awful domestic violence she endured at his hands, added.
In the two-part interview, Rihanna will also discuss her family life, growing up in Barbados and how life has been for her since her split from Chris Brown.

My same thought, nine months after the incident, many women domestic violence network wanted her to speakout, Jay-Z first mention to Oprah on her show that she could be one. Now she's evryone favorite princess... don't get me wrong abuse is WRONG but, what I don't understand is that how a person admitted in a 2007 interview with Complex Magazine that she once hit her brother in the face with a bottle, admitted in the statment to the court this pass summer in Chris Brown's assault case that she had slapped him once before... but, no one see this as abuse? She's one of the women of the year for flying around the world half naked, showing up at fashion shows.... I will say that Jay-Z's timming was perfect for her, Chris is on a comeback, people were moving forward, his new single doing way better than her's, he's at #26 and her's # 100 on billboard... tis should make her number 1 even with us knowing her latest music is crap!

Sad what happened to her, but it's very selfish to use this situation in hopes of promotion to get yourself further ahead.

Well there both basically doing it to promote there album. Can't hate on one and not the other. But I'm listening to the facts. Chris wants to suger code it. Rihanna isn't. What happened to her was horrible.
Pluss RR is doing GREAT!

This is an issue many women struggle with on a daily basis. Rihanna stated she could not believe how she had fallen in love with this type of person (Chris Brown). The problem is Chris Brown is not always abusive and neither are the other abusers in this world. Abusers only abuse their partners occasionally. The other times they are treating their partners alright or satisfactorily. This is the major issue in all abusive relationships and they never start out abusive. They start out loving and nuturing. This is how Rihanna's relationship started with Chris. He was good to her and that was how she fell in love with him. She did not fall in love with a cruel abusive man. Something happened over the term of their relationship which caused it to turn violent. It did not become violent that day which we all know about, he was most likely violent with her or controling with her previously. Rihanna and Chris are the only ones who know the whole history and story about how the controlling behaviors started. Rihanna did not ask for this and for any of you who are in this type of relationship, you need to seek help in getting out. The violence will only esculate. I know. I do this type of work for a living and I have for about 20 years. It is not easy to do, especially if you have children. There are all kinds of domestic violence assistance centers for you to access. The phone book and internet are full of resources. You can also look up my website and I will answer your questions and help you in whatever way possible. Maybe you dont' know if you are in an abusive relationship. I can help you with that also. Just get some help. You deserve to be treated well and to be loved and respected. Warmest Regards, Karen www.bmaa.com

Abuse is wrong... Obviously. What everyone needs to realize is that's there's two sides to every story. It's been reported that Rihanna & Chris were both pretty physical with one another. Other than that who cares? Especially now that you only want to talk about the abuse while hitting the media rounds promoting your album. I'm starting to hate the entertainment industry and how they glaorize and hype up peoples problems for the almighty dollar.
