Chris Brown and Rihanna Inspire 'Law & Order: SVU' Episode?

Next Wednesday's episode of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" is being billed by NBC as "a familiar story of two celebrities" -- and to pop fans, it seems very familiar indeed.

The episode "Funny Valentine" appears extremely similar to the ongoing saga of Rihanna and Chris Brown. According to the official preview, a rising, young singer is badly beaten by her hip-hop star boyfriend, portrayed in the trailer as a 20-something African-American who tends to wear fitted hats. Authorities work to build a case, but the singer sticks by her man and refuses to aid the investigation, which turns into a "media circus."

But that's where the story breaks from the Brown-Rihanna narrative -- the abusive suspect is apparently found dead, complicating the investigation even further.

The episode is set to air Feb. 27 at 9 p.m. (EST) on NBC. Special appearances will be made by Perez Hilton, Dave Navarro and Wendy Williams.
