Let it out, hun!
In her new interview with W Magazine, Rihanna opens up further about the night Chris Brown assaulted her.
Even though she has discussed the events of that fateful night several times during the course of the last few months, the interview showcases Rihanna’s growth in understanding her relationship with Beat-Her-Down and how wrong it really was. She confesses:
“There were control issues, insecurity. When people are insecure, they become very controlling and they can get very aggressive and in turn abusive. It doesn’t have to be physical. Like, they would say bad stuff to you to make you feel lesser than them, just so they would have control in the relationship. It takes a big toll on your emotions and on your everyday life. It changes you.”
We’re sure it does. But that emotional toll she endured has made her a stronger person and performer, and while it might seem publicly talking about that night is her attempt to hurt Chris’career, nothing could be farther from the truth. Rihanna says:
“At first, I completely shut down. But now I feel like this happened to me so I could be a voice for young girls who are going through what I went through and don’t know how to talk about it. It’s not about Chris, about hurting him or sabotaging his career. I don’t care about that part of it.”
Nor should you. Nor should anyone!
Keep staying strong, RiRi!
