Rihanna's Mentor Speaks, Provides Insights
Evan Rogers, the music producer who discovered Rihanna and has worked alongside the singer for years, is attempting to clear the air on the controversy that continues to swirl around RiRi!
So what does the legendary music producer have to say??
When asked on how Rihanna is responding to everyone and their mom pitching in their two cents over her personal affairs, Rihanna's music producer and mentor had some truthful insight on the situation.
"I think that everyone has good intentions and means well, but it turns up the heat in terms of it seeming like the whole world is telling her what to do. At the end of the day, people forget that at 21, your perspective is very different. These kinds of things can happen to anyone, whether you're a celebrity or not.
I think she's very aware of everything that's going on. Just like anyone else, she watches TV, she goes online. And I think that it matters to her, but there's a line that she walks between being human and caring when you hear these kinds of things, and separating your personal life from your professional life. She's doing the best she can and this is a very difficult time that she's going through right now and she's going to learn a lot from it."
We can only hope that RiRi wises up and realizes her relationship is toxic!!

If You Are Easily Offended…..
Completely Gratuitous
she needs to get rid of chris brown.
hes a complete douche
who the fuck cares?
When you are in any type of situation like this (physical or mental abuse or even when someone jerks your feelings around) YOU will eventually realize its fucked up but you have to do it in your own time. This relationship will not last much longer. He is a total asshole though. If he looked sorry it would be different but he looks cocky as hell and he sucks in my book !
BORINNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!
what a pile of horseshit, ri ri, just dump him girl, he's a dead beat loser, dont look back on your life when you are 30 wishing you had listened to everyone, hopefully though you'll be able to have that thought when your 30 and you wont be 6 foot under because of chris doing you in. x
21 is old enough to know that a man should N-E-V-E-R put his hands on you the way that Chris Brown did to Rihanna.
Sure she may still love the man he was before the beatings started, however she will never get that same person back. Once a woman beater, always a woman beater. She needs to take time to herself to heal physically and mentally. Stay strong and remove that toxic LITTLE BOY from your life.
She's lost my respect. I don't feel sorry for her anymore.
does anyone care about her or chris brown anymore? they're in the news, and on your site, too much. we're all over their drama. whether or not she stays with him is not our choice or problem. this story is old, and we shouldn't spend anymore time on a dumb girl and an abusive guy.
People need to lay off of Ri Ri. She is the victim here. She was the one who was beaten by the man she loves and trusts. It is really hard to just stop loving someone because they hurt you. Ri Ri's facial wounds may heal a lot faster than the heart wounds…so give her some TIME! Eventually she will see the light. Ri Ri even you saw the pics of Chris checking out that other woman in Miami, so you know how he really is. It just takes time to heal a devastated heart. Team RI RI!!!
SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE HIT CHRIS FIRST.
WOMEN NEED TO TAKE THIS SITUATION AS A LESSON.
STOP SQUARING OFF TO A MAN AND JUMPING IN HIS FACE THINKING THAT YOU CAN TAKE HIM OUT.
YOU CAN'T.
A MAN WILL ONLY TAKE BUT SO MUCH MOUTHING OFF AND SLAPPING ON HIM BEFORE HE PUTS YOU BACK IN YOUR PLACE.
TRUE, A MAN SHOULDN'T PUT HIS HANDS ON A WOMAN, BUT THAT DOESN'T GIVE A WOMAN A FREE PASS TO HIT HER MAN JUST BECAUSE HE PISSES HER OFF, AND SHE KNOWS THAT HE WILL GET ARRESTED IF HE HITS HER BACK.
SOME MEN DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT JAIL, AND WILL HIT YOU BACK AND KNOCK YOU THE FUCK OUT.
Everyone should mind their own relationships and buisness.
AND FOR THE REST OF YOU IDIOTS.
THIS BITCH WAS NOT GETTING "BEATEN" BY ANYONE.
SHE GOT IN A FIGHT WITH HER BOYFRIEND. A FIGHT THAT SHE STARTED.
CHRIS BROWN HAD EVERY RIGHT TO DEFEND HIMSELF AND KNOCK THIS BITCH OUT.
SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE PUT HER HANDS ON HIM FIRST.
I just wish she would leave that punk and get on with her life and career. When her music comes on the radio I change the station now. I won't support her if she stays with him.
Every one whos hating on chris never like him in the first place all that hatred is coming from mainstream telling Rihanna what to do. she aint listening to her family why listening to u people.Mind ur own danm problems.Get a fuckins life .I believe all those comments are coming from unemployers who stay home on their computers reading trash and cannt gt a job.
I don't give 3 cents…..

WHY NO HARRY? BLAME THE FAIRY!
She is old enough to know that SHE needs to use her words, not her fists…and she is old enough to know that the same thing goes for him. But the more that comes out, the more I don't feel as sorry for her — yes, she was beaten up, but she initiated a physical fight….if another woman did this to her, we'd be commenting on how violent she is and how she lost. That being said, they are toxic to each other and need to split.
I lost two good friends to domestic violence, two otherwise strong & beautiful women. Everytime I see Rihanna, I want to throw up.
Sounds like he is as dumb as she is. Typically, his message is devoid of any substance. As for her professional life, baby it's over. Time to look for a day job. I hear McDonalds is hiring. That is about all you are qualified for, you black bitch.
with "her" behaviour she told the whole world, that anyone can do anything he wants with her, that's in fact a little disappointing.
and like her spokesman says: this can happen to anyone and bet that it has happen to a lot of those arguing, and they know what will happen next. rhianna thinks it's over - it's not.
She is not a "damsel in distress" or a sad princess. Plenty of people have confirmed that she's just as hot-tempered as Chris Brown. She hit him first! These two feed off each other's tantrums. Some couples enjoy drama and chaos in their relationships because in their minds, this makes their relationship passionate. This couple is one of them. This won't be the last time they'll battle it out.
Shocking new rumor go buy star magazine claim to have a sex tape of rihanna and chris.Have any one seen it yet
I'm so impressed that you took away RiRi's "Princess" title. Unfortunately, Rihannna is setting an awful, dangerous example for our kids. It is up to us to point that out.
Now, on to CoverGirl!!
If this person was truly a mentor and cares for her, she would be in a Domestic Violence counseling program. Period. Clearly the people around her dont' give a shit about her saftely or whether or not she lives or dies. The only way to end abuse is if you leave the abuser or he kills you. They don't stop doign this. They just don't. Rihanna, please get some counseling. You have been brain washed by your abuser. They all have the same tricks up their sleeves. One is no different than the other. I'm sure he cried and apologized and promised he'd never do it again and then made you feel guilty by saying if you don't forgive me, it's going to ruing both our careers, etc. It is so scary to watch this play out. I hope he doesn't kill her.
Im so tired of hearing about this. My mother always says that their are two sides to every story. And it has been reported also that she has a bad temper also, but their were only two people in the car that night. So everyone needs to but out of this. If she takes him back so what its their business and no one else. Let's talk about important stuff like the AIG Bailout money going to executive bonuses or the pope stating that we shouldnt uses condoms because without them it doesnt spread HIV/AIDS. (Bascially if you dont use a condom you cant get aids). Let's talk about that and not rihanna and chris.
WELL if she likes money,,, she better remember where it came from,,, she gets paid because she has fans and people follow her,, so YES she has an Image she has to protect…. so ,, yeah,,, she can be 21 and dumb,,, but she is not 21 and dumb when she is getting paid, right??? I am tired of these people getting soooo over paid and pretending like they don't owe us anything,, and still give bad examples for the kids that buy their stuff with hard earned money,,,,, this chick is over……
PEREZ, SHUT THE FUCK UP!!! YOU ARE THE ONE WHO'S TOXIC! YOU FUCKIN ASS FACE!
,any of you 21 yr olds with rihanna contacts and money dating a 19yr old ??{maybe its just me} but when i was 21 i wasnt dating any one younger than myself he needs to go- fuck a woman beater- he pounded her and not her ass!!
Perez could u take back the Title Disgrace princess not Sad princess
I hope his little bitch ass goes to jail and he gets beat down and I hope she gets a brain because she sure is stupid for even SPEAKING to that asshole ever again!
Re: AMO – lol…like she cares what u think,,,SMH
I'm Sick Of Her!!!!
Re: evasmama – I agree with you for mentioning Cover Girl. I have written to them expressing my disappointment every time I see an ad featuring Rihanna. I don't think about makeup, I think about the dangerous precidence she is setting for women in domestic abuse situations. I would urge women who are really bothered by this to write to Cover Girl, just go to their website. Make your voices heard.
.
I've mentioned this before, I lost two good friends to domestic violence situations. Everytime I see Rihanna, I want to throw up.
perez do you not realise you are one of the 'everyone and their mom pitching in their two cents'?
GO HOME YOU PIG?
rihanna is lucky to survive this abuse and lucky things didn't end up worse. she will definitely learn from this big time. she's young and dumb just like everyone.
There is no "situation" Perez. She got her azz beat after hitting him first and probably not for the first time. She won't press charges or testify about it. He won't comment about it. The "situation" is CLOSED. Can't we find some other fame whore to talk about?
keep your head up and listen to your heart
Make sure he does jail time!

(enter Chris Brown's name)
BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! SHE SUCKS NOW!!! NOBODY WANTS HER NOW, SHE'S AN IDIOT!!! WE HAVE LADY GAGA NOW!!!
FUCK THE HATERS.!!
CHRIS BROWN FOREVERRRR.!!
Whoever says this isn't our business LMAO! Of course it's our business. First of all, Rhianna missed performing in the Grammys because Chris "the loser" Brown beat her upside her head. Secondly, we've been blitzed with media images of her swollen and bruised face and stories of their reconcillation ever since. Hell, I can't even go buy a gallon of milk without it all up in my face at the check-out line in every store. And every time I turn on my radio I either hear their songs or hear someone talking about them. They are celebrities, so their drama is our business. Maybe Chris the loser should have thought about that before he beat Rhianna like he did. Loser!!!
