10 Biggest Revelations from Rihanna on Oprah
Rihanna's heavily hyped interview on Oprah's Next Chapter was exactly what the teaser clip promised—lots of Chris Brown gossip. Sure, the pop star also took Oprah on a tour of her former Barbados neighborhood and talked about being named the sexiest woman alive. But what everyone will be debating for days is her teary recollection of Brown and his 2009 assault against her.
In case you didn't happen to be watching the OWN network Sunday night, here are the interview's 10 biggest revelations.
1. Rihanna was worried about Chris Brown
after the R&B star assaulted her in early 2009.
“I just felt like he made that
mistake because he needed help,” she told Oprah, crying. “And
who's going to help him? Nobody is going to say he needs help.
Everybody is going to say he's a monster without looking at the
source. I was more concerned about him.”
2. The assault left her angry and
betrayed, but also without her best friend.
“I was angry, hurt, betrayed,” she
said. “I lost my best friend. Everything switched in a night, and I couldn't control that.
It's not easy for me to understand or interpret, and its' not easy to
interpret on camera. Not with the world watching."
