Singer, Chris Brown, 19, was arrested early Sunday after a physical altercation with his superstar girlfriend, Rihanna, 20, who suffered two large contusions on her face, a bloody nose and a split lip. There were also reports of Rihanna having bite marks on her body.
Rihanna told authorities that Brown threatened to kill her and choked her until she lost consciousness. Witnesses heard Rihanna screaming and called 911.
The LA Times Blog reports there has been speculation around the cause of the argument between Brown and Rihanna, which may have involved Paris Hilton.
Witnesses reported the couple began fighting after leaving Clive Davis' pre-Grammy bash on Saturday night. According to OK! Magazine, Paris and Brown were seen at a Timbaland Grammy party together. The witness told OK, "He and Paris went outside together. Paris was all over him. Rihanna caught wind of it and spent the rest of the night glued to him."

Celebrity News Examiner, Liz Barrett reports there is also speculation that the argument started after Brown "received a text message from a woman about hooking up later," while he was with Rihanna.
No matter what the cause of the spat, domestic violence is never warranted.
As the Seattle Eastside Parenting Examiner put it, "This sad story highlights abusive relationships. Since Brown is 19 and Rihanna is 20, their story is particularly interesting to teens... This is an excellent time to talk to your teen about abusive relationships."

rihanna baby dont worry chris brown was wrong for hittin u he dont deserve a beautiful girl likke u
i have been there n i know how it feels n you don't deserve that no woman should ever have to go through that and i am only 23 i went through it from when i was 18 till i was 22 so i hope he gets what he deserves and paris needs her butt kicked but good luck to you and all you do
This is all some O'bull shizz!!!! Chris brown is ma nigg and he was set up!
my babe chris dudnt mean to hurt rihanna they both makes cute couple rihanna u should forgive him cause his a type of guy that really loves his gurl and make her happy chris i love u and try not to do it again good luck baby
Chris brown is a b**** cause he did that to Rihanna. I'm Rihanna's fan and I hope she's ok. She needs to press charges! Chris has no respect 4 women!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DO NOT 4GIVE CHRIS BROWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think that is so messed up no matter What a guy does to a women or what a woman does to a guy there should never be any phisical violince
I'm a fan of Chris and I'm a fan of Rhianna but that doesn't matter. What matters is Rhianna was abused and no woman should ever take that. I know from exeriance that if it happens once it will happen again. Also, if Rhianna gets back together with Chris what kind of message will she be sending to other girls in relationships like that?
hes crazy
i think thaT THEY WERE BOTH WRONG BECAUSE RIHANNA HIT CHRIS FIRST AFTER NOTICING THE TEXT MESSAGE THE BITE MARKS ON HER HAND HAD TO BE FROM SELF DEFENSE HE ISN'T A CANNIBAL HE WOULDN'T JUST START BITING HER THEN THREW THE KEYS TO A RENTED LAMBOURGHINI OUT THE WINDOW AND CHRIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HIT HER HE COULD YELL SCREAM CURSE AND ALL OF THAT BUT DON'T HIT HER IF ANYONE SHOULD BE CHARGED WITH ANYTHING IT SHOULD BE BOTH OF THEM
im so in love with chris brown he is so sexy, and i really think rihanna know how to sing i even added chris brown on my screen savor but i dont even like him that much when i heard he hit rihanna even though he is so sexy!!!!!!!
THE BOTH OF THEM ARE WRONG FOR WHAT THEY DID TO LET OTHERS LEAD THEM UP TO THIS CONFRONTATION. IT IS ONLY SO MUCH A PERSON CAN INDURE OR WHOLED IN BEFORE LETTING IT ALL OUT. IT MAY NOT BE SAID ON A REGULAR BUT WOMEN DO START/ANTAGANIZE U 2 THE POINT OF NO RETURN. MOST MEN NEVER REPORT THE WOMAN WHEN SHE IS THE ABRUSER AND IF U DO NOTHING IS EVER DONE ABOUT IT. U HAVE SUM WOMEM WHO JUST DON'T BELIEVE YOU LOV THEM IF U DON'T BEAT THAT ASS.AND OTHERS WHO DARE THERE MAN TO HIT THEM EVEN WHEN THE MAN WALKS AWAY 2 AVOID A FIGHT. I HAVE SUM WESTINDIAN FRIENDS AND RELATIVES WHO WILL PUSH U 2 ARGUE AND FIGHT EVEN WHEN U DO WALK AWAY, THEY KEEP ON COMING AN FOLLOW U. I BELIEVE SUM 1(RIHANNA) STARTED IT OR QUESTIONED WHATEVER, AND THE OTHER(CHRIS) LOST IT OR HIT HER, WHILE THE TROUBLE MAKER(PARIS) WON IN THE LONG RUN. IN THE END U SHOULD NEVER HIT A FEMALE OR ANYONE FOR THAT MATTER. HOWEVER DON'T BE A FOOL NO ONE IS INNOCENT THERE IS ALWAYS A REASON 2 DEFEND YOURSELF IF SOMEONE HIT'S U.THE ONLY THING U CAN DO IS TRY TO WALK AWAY AND TAKE YOURSELF OUT OF THE EQUATION UNTIL.I HAVE BEEN ON BOTH SIDES NO 1 WINS. TRY TO AVOID HE SAY/SHE SAY, GOSSIP, SINGLE MEN/WOMEN ON RELATIONSIP ADVICE. NO SINGLE PERSON CAN TELL U HOW TO KEEP A SPOUSE IF THEY CAN'T WHOLED ON TO ONE MAN/WOMAN. MOST SINGLE WOMAN/MAN ARE MISERABLE AN WANT THERE FRIENDS TO FEEL THE SAME WAY. MISERY LOV'S COMPANY. I BELIEVE THEY BOTH HAVE A LOT OF GROWING-UP TO DO BEFORE GETTING INTO A RELATIONSHIP WITH WHOEVER IN THE FUTURE.
hey rihanna i think that a chris deserves a second chance.....and also u are a strong woman and if u really love chris then give him another chance.... and that hoe paris needs to back the fu** up!!!!!
