We still hate the message of the song, but we guess if it helped them both face their pasts, it's alright.
Rihanna's duet with Eminem, Love the Way You Lie, is sitting comfortably on the charts and is being played across the nation on every station imaginable. Still, we wondered why Rihanna would agree to sing on such a violent track after the now infamous incident with Chris Brown.
RiRi explained her reasons in a recent interview, saying:
“It’s something that, you know, we’ve both experienced, you know, on different sides, different ends of the table. He pretty much just broke down the cycle of domestic violence and it’s something that people don’t have a lot of insight on….The lyrics were so deep, so beautiful and intense. It’s something that I understood, something I connected with."
There is something rather powerful about the song.
Still, the dark times are behind you. Can we get back to the poppy-R&B fun shiz we fell in love with???

We're all for forgiveness, but we never forget. And neither should you, Rihanna,
Sources are reporting that RiRi has been in contact with her ex-assaulter boyfriend, Chris Brown.
For some reason we don't understand, RiRi has been allegedly talking to Chris over the phone ever since the BET Awards. His "emotional" performance supposedly prompted her to reach out to him. Sources say that she is hoping that they can be friends again and, as you can imagine, Chris is all for it. The source explains:
"Chris told her that he felt like he's grown up in the past year. He's said he's so happy to be back in touch with her. They were each other's first love and he's missed her so much. Rihanna knows that if she wanted him back, he'd be there in a second."
You mean, for the sake of publicity and restoring his image, if she were to publicly forgive him, then he'd be there in a second! Pitiful!
What's worse is this remorseful act is working well enough that RiRi is hoping to see him face-to-face. Problem with that is, under the terms of Chris' probation, he must stay at least 100 yards away from her for five years.
Praise the judicial system for having more sense than others!
