darkness! finally faces the light!

She said: “I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears. That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day.”

HOTT GOSSIP!

So here’s what they’re saying:

RIHANNA is finally opening up about the night Chris Brown attacked her, and all the drama that came crashing down around her following it. The “Umbrella” singer, who was hit by her ex-boyfriend in February at a pre-Grammys party, said: “This happened to me. It can happen to anyone.” It was bad enough that she was dealing with the break-up and her bruises, inside and out, but there was a huge media frenzy weighing on her, too.

She said in an interview with Glamour magazine (via E! News): “I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears. That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day.” The, the 21-year-old beauty also admitted it was hard to come to terms with because of the feelings she had for the “Run It” singer. She says in an episode of Good Morning America due to air on Thursday: “He was definitely my first big love.”

Chris recently gave an interview about the assault and spoke of his regret about attacking Rihanna and told how he is trying his best to make amends. He said: “I’m human. If people feel a certain way, I’m not going to say they’re wrong. But it’s not right to judge somebody when people make mistakes all the time. I’ve learned from my mistakes and I’m learning from them. And I regret every moment, every second of it.”

Chris attacked Rihanna in his car as they left a pre-Grammy Awards party in February, repeatedly punching her in the face and biting her arms. He pleaded guilty to assault and in August was sentenced to 6 months of community service, 12 months of domestic violence counselling and 5 years probation. The judge also issued a restraining order which requires him to stay at least 100 yards from Rihanna for 5 years.
