Popstar Rihanna is finally opening up about her February domestic abuse tragedy with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. Diane Sawyer interviewed Rihanna and was have a small clip of her answering some pretty deem questions. She doesn’t seem like she is holding anything back either.
When asked about the incident itself, she said all she could keep thinking was “When is it going to stop? When is it going to stop? He had no soul in his eyes. Just blank. He was clearly blacked-out. There was no person when I looked at him.”
Their argument started when Rihanna saw a text message on Chris’ phone from another girl. “I caught him in a lie, and he wouldn’t tell the truth. And I wouldn’t drop it. I couldn’t take that he kept lying to me, and he couldn’t take that I wouldn’t drop it … It escalated into him being violent towards me. And it was ugly. I was battered, I was bleeding, I was swollen in my face. My next option was to get out of the car and walk, start walking in a gown and a bloody face. I didn’t have a plan. That whole night was not part of my plan,” Rihanna tells Diane Sawyer.
But does she hate Chris after what he did for her?
“The more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for each other, equally dangerous. Because it was a bit of an obsession. Love doesn’t go away right away. He didn’t accept that very well. Obviously he didn’t want us to be apart. But I had to make a decision for me. No, I don’t hate him at all. I actually love and care about him. I want him to do well, have a great career, have a great life and grow up. And just take this as something you had to go through to grow up and learn.”
The full interview on 20/20 will be aired today, Friday, November 6, 2009 where Rihanna will provide details of the graphic February 7th evening.
