Rihanna has been a headline fixture for over a year now, but has yet to comment on her incident with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.
Well, the starlet is finally breaking her silence! She will be on 20/20 on Friday with Diane sawyer and she is also Glamour magazine’s December cover girl!
Inside she dishes on her feelings before and after the incident, saying “Domestic violence is a big secret. No kid goes around and lets people know their parents fight. Teenage girls can’t tell their parents that their boyfriend beat them up. You don’t dare let your neighbor know that you fight. It’s one of the things we [women] will hide, because it’s embarrassing. My story was broadcast all over the world for people to see, and they have followed every step of my recovery. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that. I want to give as much insight as I can to young women, because I feel like I represent a voice that really isn’t heard. Now I can help speak for those women.”

I love Rihanna, but I think it sucks that she is “speaking about the situation†and “speaking up for those who have encountered domestic violence†now. She is only doing these interviews because her album is coming out this month. All this time she has been running around New York and Paris for fashion week and she didn’t say a word then…shame on her management team, publicist, and anyone who is supposedly helping shape her career.
