Rihanna – Wait Your Turn For The After Math From The Interview
The reviews are mixed from Rihanna’s interview. Personally I felt like she said things that would rip the heart out of a man in love, but my opinion isn’t important now. Mainstream America loved her interview. They felt as if it was a defining moment of power for women going through and who have been through abuse. I would agree. Yet I also agree w/ Urban America who feels like she might not have been telling the whole truth. EW reports.
Speaking to Diane Sawyer, Rihanna said of Brown’s remorse afterward, “He’d say, ‘You hate me, don’t you?’ and I would lie and say, ‘No.’”
That was a chilling moment, one among many. Sawyer showed Rihanna online videos of people — fans? — saying that she must have provoked Brown. Sawyer paraphrased their sentiments: “They say, ‘Did she bait him? Rile him?’”
Rihanna said bluntly of such questions, “It’s ignorance.”
Demonstrating a maturity and thoughtfulness about her experience, Rihanna noted, “With fame comes a lot of things, and the most dangerous is freedom… no boundaries.”
At the same time, she said that when she’s shown the pictures of her battered face from that night, “I get very ashamed, angry… embarrassed… You start lying to yourself, blaming yourself… I didn’t want people looking at me. I felt really lonely.”
She claimed never to have heard the song Brown supposedly recorded for her called “Changed Man.” When Sawyer showed her the internet apology Brown issued and asked the singer’s reaction, Rihanna said simply, “It sounds like he might be reading off a teleprompter… I don’t know if he understood the extent of what he did.”
That line right there would destroy even a sane man. For a man to pour his heart out and the only thing that could be said is he might be reading… Ether. I know someone pulled a Joe Wilson and shouted “You Lie”
