Everyone Doesn't Hate Chris

I know I sure don't! And I never did! I was appalled by the actions he took against Rhianna and I was hopeful that he would get help to deal with anger so that he never went upside another woman's head the way he did with that girl. I also hoped and prayed he would get away from her. See, in my mind she was always a part of the problem. No, I do not think he was justified in busting her behind, but I think they both (as many young people do) contributed to the violent element of that relationship.

As a young girl I witnessed many of my friends in violent relationships as young as 14. In these relationships, most of my friends didn't think they were being abused because they fought back. And this abuse was not a secret. The adults around knew or speculated about this violence and often did nothing to stop it. Imagine how little adults can intervene when you are signing their paycheck?

Not to harp on the past of the Rhi Rhi and CB situation, I moved on from it like most people did and like they seem to have done. She is dating Matt Kemp and coloring her hair every color under the sun. I follow CB on Twitter and he seems to be doing just fine tattooing his body every other weekend and dating video chicks. Actually I hadnt thought about their situation at all until I heard the new song by Eminem featuring Rhianna. This song is about a violent and tumultuous relationship. And who is gracing the hook, none other Rhianna. Then I went a step further and saw the video! OMG, she is in the video trying to look sexy as Megan Fox and her man are beating the hell out of each other in a drunken rage....

This kind of craziness I have come to expect and enjoy from Eminem. To see Rhianna on the hook made me dislike her more than I ever have. Furthermore, I think she should stay away from the Anti Domestic Violence ads for a while. Seems a bit hypocritical at this point Rhi Rhi...
