Rihanna's collaboration with Chris Brown points to emotional trouble

Critics are using the cycle of violence to describe news that the dysfunctional duo, Rihanna and Chris Brown, are collaborating on songs that are receiving lots of attention. Analysts are breaking down the habits of Rihanna and her character in an attempt to explain to the world why Rihanna would collaborate with her abusive ex-boyfriend, Chris Brown. Brown plead guilty to assaulting Rihanna in June 2009. A few months later Brown appeared on CNNs Larry King Live in an interview concerning the state of his relationship with Rihanna and the sentence he received. In the interview, Brown stated that he could not remember brutally assaulting his girlfriend and disfiguring her face the way police reports described. Nevertheless, Browns music has continued to be successful among die-hard Brown fans. Rihanna also continued to successfully release songs that were widely accepted by the Rihanna Navy which is the name of her large fan base. As Rihanna continued to release popular songs that penet

Source: twitter.com/chrisbrown Chris Brown and Rihanna's relationship has been catnip for gossip writers, with a new corroboration of their relationship every day, but what about Karrueche Tran, Brown's supposedly girlfriend? You could be forgiven for forgetting about her, but yes she's still in the picture! Well, at least the Twitpic. Chris Brown posted a tweet last night with a photo of him making a home-cooked meal, followed by a tweet by his nominal friend, Karrueche Tran, with a picture of the food and the words, "Yup.. Get mad!" surely addressing Rihanna.

Rihanna and Chris Brown Together? Girlfriend Does Not Mind him Seeing Singer

Rihanna became no less than a role model for her fans after she courageously walked out of an abusive relationship with Chris Brown in 2009. The 24-year-old Barbadian singer even came out with music videos like "Man Down" and "We found Love," with themes that inspire and give courage to women to walk out of abusive relationships. But after three years of separation is she really going back to someone who at one time did not respect her and physically abused her? While Rihanna may have moved on, it is hard for fans to forget the graphic images of the singer with the bruised face and swollen blue lips. The singer, in spite of what happened, seems to be heading towards a reconciliation with her ex. Also, doesn't Chris's girlfriend Karrueche Tran have a problem? Apparently, no! Both the singers recently collaborated for the making of a raunchy, suggestive new remix, "Birthday Cake." It seems Tran prefers turning a blind eye to these events. According t

REUTERS Rihanna and Chris Brown aren't even officially back together (although you'd be excused from not knowing that based on the non-stop gossip drip about the couple), but Rihanna's already reportedly sticking by Brown through his latest legal trouble. Brown was publicly accused last week of stealing a fan's iPhone outside of a South Beach nightclub after she tried to take a picture of the controversial singer, and according to Radar Online , Rihanna believes (not-so-?)secret boyfriend Chris Brown when he says he didn't do it.

However within the midst of his multiple brush ins with the law, Chris managed to pull of a show stopping performance last night. C

Threatening Chris Brown Is Not Helpful

Alyssa Rosenberg on C.M. Punk's challenge to Chris Brown: One sure way not to move the conversation in anything like a productive direction, though, is to challenge Chris Brown to a fight. Which is what C.M. Punk, a professional wrestler, decided it would be a productive thing to do. There's really no circumstance in which a white man talking about curb stomping a black man is an elevating threat. And whatever Chris Brown needs, it's emphatically not a beating. Punk could take a note from retired pro wrestler Mick Foley, who's become an amazing advocate for victims of sexual assault. This isn't about completing a cycle of retribution. And it's not about teaching people about who it is or isn't honorable to fight. I think, at this point, it's a good idea to revisit this 2007 profile of Chris Brown. Here is Brown discussing a promise he made to his mother as an 11-year old boy : He vowed that he would go to jail by age 15 for killing his abusive stepfath

A source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com: "Jay was absolutely disgusted by what Chris did to Rihanna.

This weekend, Seth Rogen joined the growing ranks of Chris Brown critics . Hosting the Independent Spirit Awards on Saturday (Feb. 25), the comedian was certainly riskier than Billy Crystal at last night's Oscars, the award show Rogen compared to the Grammys telecast two weeks ago. An Open Letter to Rihanna: It's Time to Talk That Talk "You say a few hateful things, they don't let you within a few hundred yards of the Oscars," Rogen said, referring to Oscar producer Brett Ratner's firing over derogatory gay comments. "You can literally beat the shit out of a nominee and they'll ask you to perform twice at the Grammys," he said, referring to -- but of course -- Chris Brown. Watch Rogen's opening speech below (with Brown disses coming 5:30 into the speech).

Pitbull called on some super-friends while Nicki Minaj unveiled a new hit at the NBA All-Star Game, which took place in Orlando on Sunday night (Feb. 26). Pit brought out Ne-Yo , Nayer and unannounced performer Chris Brown during the halftime show, while the female rap star played her latest Hot 100 hit, "Starships," during the player introductions.

CM Punk and Chris Brown: Another WWE Twitter war

If the very first WrestleMania taught us anything, it's that celebrities will always have a place in the WWE Universe. For years, WWE fans have been used to seeing actors, musicians, athletes, billionaires, reality stars and pretty much any other form of celebrity journey through WWE TV, with many treating it like a stop on a media tour (Leno, Letterman, WWE, Conan, etc...). Today, the most interesting WWE celebrity involvement may not even have an official agreement in place between parties. It's happening on Twitter , and it's turning heads. As the old saying goes -- coincidentally, it's also the title of Eric Bischoff's WWE-released book -- Controversy Creates Cash. Modifying the saying just a little bit, Controversy creates Interest.
