Rihanna's Dad Speaks Out!

wenn5240656_rihanna__opt1.jpg

Like most of us, Rihanna's father dad doesn't know when things started going horribly wrong for his daughter and Chris Brown.

He said he saw them last in July, and, "They seemed pretty happy. I don't know what went wrong."

Rihanna's pops spent time with the pop star on Thursday and described her appearance, saying, "There is some bruising. She will be all right. I think so."

He also went on to say that, "At some point, she will speak out. I hope she will stand up for women all over the world."

Yes, we hope so too.

RiRi's dad also reported that she's spending time with girlfriends to help get through these tough times.

Real friends and family. What would we do without them?

      Excuse Me?? "She will speak Out?" For starters she doesnt need too I believe this is gonna be the only thing that is going to follow her for awhile…and Standing UP for Women all over the world??
      WTF is she gonna say…."Hey Ladies its ok to get KNOCKED AROUND A FEW TIMES but Dont Leave HIM after the FIRST TIME. Wait TIL HE LEAVES YOU ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD??" Really??? It really makes me ANGRY that she didnt have A Strong Will to leave him when it STARTED!!



    9. 9

      I do hope that she will stand up for herself and other abused women and share her story. I hope she will do the right thing and press charges against him, thereby signifying that abuse against women is not ok.

      Abuse is a hard cycle to break, but it must be broken.



    10. 10

      Well that's good that she's ok. Did she not know he was a douche when she first saw him though? Coz I knew as soon as I saw him. He had douche written on his face with his shitty personality and shitty music…sometimes there's cues in life…

    13. 13

      Re: lookup – somehow yes - i don't have the impression, that rihanna likes her limelight, so i don't think she's pimping out her "few bruises" (did you see them? i didn't, so i can't tell if they are "a few bruises, like you do). - the more important thing is a big NO to violence - and thats what this story is good for - no matter who was involved - but as you said - domestic violence happens everywhere, anytime - and probably this spotlight will stop some of it.



    19. 19

      YOU HAVE NO REAL FRIEND OR FAMILY PEREZ!!!! SO YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT FEELS LIKE!!!



    20. 20

      Chris Brown's career is so over!



    21. 21

      After seeing that appalling outfit, I can now understand why someone might slap her . . .



    22. 22

      Yes, I hope Rhianna does stand up for women all over. Now she has been on the receiving end of an assault with bodily harm from a loved one, she knows and will bring the depth of that experience to her work and to help others.



    23. 23

      Shut up Perez, it was hardly worth getting out of bed to post that.
      Find something good on TMZ to copy and paste or go back to eating twinkies in bed you fat bastard.
      Unless its rihanna herself saying something no one cares, we've already heard it.



    24. 24

      I'm not interested in what the family and/or friends think happened. I just want to read C.B.'s and Rihanna's statements.

      Eamonn: Rihanna needs to wise up
      Jan 27, 2009

      Eamonn Holmes has said if singer Rihanna were your daughter you would give her a "slap".

      In an interview with Star magazine, Holmes discussed stars and their entourages.

      He said: "I find the entourages that some people come with, especially the Americans, really pathetic.

      "Rihanna, for example, is a beautiful girl, but if she was your daughter, you'd give her a slap and tell her to wise up. She is surrounded by people who treat her like a little flower."

      He also said Beyonce's sister Solange had the right attitude, but said he found her "stand off-ish" when he asked her about Beyonce.

      Eamonn added: "I'd love to interview Kate Middleton, I think that would be very interesting. She's a very attractive girl!"

      The Sky News presenter is also fronting ITV1's The Feelgood Factor, where viewers ask friends to give a pound to charity for every pound they lose in weight.

      thought this was interesting….



    27. 27

      REAL MEN DO NOT HIT WOMEN.
      ………………………………………..
      Sad, pathetic cowards hit women.
      …………………………………………



    28. 28

      what about those women who get abused every single day? Just because they are not celebrities or famous as Rihanna doesn't mean they don't have any value. Rihanna is using this abuse drama to get more publicity or pity votes. Shame on her!!



    29. 29

      DEAR PEREZ… WHERE IS CHRIS SHIT BROWN CAN YOU BASH HIM MORE TO HEIGHTEN THE DRAMA?



    30. 30

      It's sad to see that so many women go through this every single day, but the whole world has to support only Rihanna, cause she is RICH and FAMOUS.



    31. 31

      Men suck. No offense Perez, but most men are womanizers and jerks. Pigs. The only nice men for the most part are gay. Chris Brown let fame and $ get to his head. Someday he'll be old, wrinkly, poor, and no woman will want to be with him. Either that or he'll be in jail and will be somebody's bitch.



    32. 32

      once again perez… late…. saw this hmm 48 hrs ago.



    33. 33

      OH how cute! Too bad he didn't SPEAK out when she was whoring herself onstage for pennies. He didn't speak out while she was fukkin for tracks thus acquiring HERPES! So NOWWWW he wants to speak out???

      That's what happens to whores. They get smacked up. LOL yes! She would be the perfect spokesperson for WhORES R US!



    34. 34

      LOLOL!!!



    35. 35

      Isn't her dad a coke addict.



    36. 36

      WHY THE FUCK DOES SHE HAVE SUCH BIG THUNDER THIGHS.
      THEY ARE FUCKING FUGLY.

      Re: lookup – A$$hole, women usually get beaten up behind closed doors. No one finds out about it and a lot of the time, the women are too embarrassed or afraid to report it. That's one reason why we don't hear about domestic violence more often in the news. Also, the media might not be interested. By your logic, because there are starving people in Ethiopia, we should all starve ourselves because some people can't eat. You're a messed up person. I am happy that Rihanna's experience is being talked about…To help her and to bring everyon's attention to the problem of violence in the home.

      Re: You Suck H0 – By your logic, some guy should beat you up for saying such stupid stuff and wearing ho make up in your photo. Go and live in Saudi Arabia if you like having guys tell women what they should be dressing like and dancing like.

      Re: A_Gurl_Wid_Class – Are you a woman? It weirds me out how many women are acting like Rihanna deserved this! How has she invited the media attention? Yes, there should be a lot more attention given to other victims of violence, but that doesn't mean Rihanna's case should not be talked about. I'm glad people are talking about this. Maybe it will help other victims. You are a bitter jerk from the dark ages.



    40. 40

      Amen to your last sentence, Perez.



    41. 41

      I like RiRi I think she is a beautiful girl. Her father I read here or another site was once a drug addict! Not anymore. She saw him once do drugs and he was ashamed. I am glad he turned his life around for his child's sake. Now he is right where she needs him. And, for that I am sure she is greateful! It is as it should be. Be glad when this is over and she can move on and sing again.

      Gents, remember never hit/beat on a woman! Just walk away.

      Stay strong girl.



    42. 42

      I don't care too much for Rhianna. I think she is annoying. But this is still a sad deal. No ONE, should be beat up or hit. Especially by a loved one….it's a sad situation. Hopefully she will use this negative time to promote awareness for EVERYONE who has been abused or is being abused. GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN! Getting beat is not worth staying….trust me, I know….



    43. 43

      Her music is over-produced studio shit but I feel sorry for her. No one deserves to be beaten.



    44. 44

      please tell me she got in some good blows!



    45. 45

      Re: lookup – its funny how you say that but your on this website, reading about peoples lives that you don't even know.. hearing about a singer getting hurt or killed is much more interesting than hearing about a non-famous person getting hit or killed. If you truly meant what you said you wouldn't be into celebrity gossip! Duh

    46. -@v@- says – reply to this


      46

      She doesn't have to stand up for women all over the world. She's probably hurting and in shock right now, so she doesn't need to be assigned a 'job' on top of it all. If she simply takes care of herself and sticks up for herself, that will be role model enough for her for now. Hugs.



    47. 47

      hahaha wow people

      There is so much ignorant crap being written. I cant believe people are criticising her for staying with someone if he'd hit her before. Of course she should have left him but its so much easier to say that than do it and God knows she's paid the price for it now. Nobody should go through things like this and I wish for her sake that she hadn't but I hope that once she's had time to heal that something positive can come out of it. Maybe other women who have been in similar situations wont feel so alone and have the strength to get away from their abusers.

      Re: A_Gurl_Wid_Class – Your thinking is twisted and effed up. No, the whole world doesn't just support only Rihanna when it comes to abusive situations, and it's only BECAUSE she's famous that the whole world knows about this. You obviously have a bug up your bonnet about her. You also say she's 'using this drama to get more publicity or pity votes.' Huh? No one needs this kind of publicity; and she's not running for victim of the year, and certainly wouldn't want your 'pity votes', but that comment certainly tells us all a lot about your thinking. Class my ass.



    50. 50

      Re: You Suck H0 – You are an abusive bully too. Shut your mouth. You don't revictimize a victim, a_shole. That's like picking apart a woman on the stand about 'what were you wearing' when she was raped. YOU suck, ho.



    51. 51

      Re: You Suck H0 – The green-eyed jealousy and evil nastiness are just seeping out of your pores. Chris Brown would NEVER do you.



    52. 52

      I think she is gonna take him back. Women are dumb asses and always go back to their abuser.



    53. 53

      [ 40 P L U S S E E K I N G . C 0 M ] is really a funny and interesting place to meet 40 plus and attractive women or hot men. Many hottie photos at this site, you can enjoy latest interesting photos or talk about hot topic with other friends. I've met many thoughtful 40plus singles who were trying to find true love.



    54. 54

      Re: AddictingGirls – Go to hell, the only person who needs to be degraded and beat up is you..Its sadistic, ignorant, horndogs like you that are the cause of unnecessary violence



    55. 55

      wow. she had fat thighs



    56. 56

      i'm not excusing the douche bag, but there are plenty of other celebrities who beat the shit out of the partners and they never get this much hype.



    57. 57

      Yea… I dont think shes as innocent as she portrays to be either… i feel theres more to the story but of course we will never hear the 100% truth.
      BUT, there is NEVER any excuse for a woman to be hit by a man especially like that. Almost like Ike and Tina Tuner status



    58. 58

      She won't be speaking for me… if I was hit by a bloke only once I would drop his ass big time!

      Silly Silly girl for putting up with shit like that



    59. 59

      I'm tired of Perez's defending Rihanna. Like no one else is doing that, they are only reporting the story. And you should do that Perez! Stop taking sides. By the way .. RIHANNA HAS THUNDER THYS!! LIKE HOLY CRAP ARE THEY EVER CHUNKY. Time to loose 10 pounds off them thys.



    60. 60

      Re: AddictingGirls – Hahaha I hate to admit it but its true like perez he needs a good slapping hahaha



    61. 61

      Re: PatriciaCakes – I think its spelled …thighs… Here let me use it in a sentence "Rhianna has yummy thunder thighs" YOUR WELCOME!



    62. 62

      thought she could beat a man ’til she saw police lights. look at those thunder thighs!
