The word over the weekend from Los Angeles is that star singer Rihanna is not cooperating with prosecutors in the Chris Brown case.
Sources say Rihanna “wants the whole thing” to go away and isn’t helping the district attorney prepare his case against Brown for allegedly beating her to a pulp in the early hours of February 8th, the day the of the Grammy Awards.
Apparently Rihanna is angry, they say, that pictures of her bruises were leaked to the press. She’s not happy, too, that she was quickly identified as Brown’s victim.
Rihanna’s loyalty to Brown, I predict, will backfire. For one thing, even without her testimony, prosecutors already have evidence and a statement.
But even more damaging to Rihanna, ironically, will be the image of her as a battered woman defending her alleged batterer. This isn’t 1967. In a post-Tina Turner confessional world, too much is known about this sort of thing. Rihanna is a role model for young women.
But for her to endorse — either implicitly or explicitly — what went on that night could result in her going from victim to enabler. And while victim earns the public’s sympathy, enabler doesn’t. Future commercial sponsors may not see Rihanna’s as an image they want to send to young consumers if she’s viewed as interfering with Brown’s criminal prosecution.
Right now a hearing is set for one week from today. At that time, Brown will likely be arraigned, charges will be filed. Whether Rihanna supports those charges and will help prosecutors at trial remains to be seen.

SCREWED IF YOU DONT, SCREWED IF YOU DO….IF SHE DOESNT…IT WILL NEVER GO AWAY SIMPLY BECUZ EVERYONE WOULD SEE HOW WEAK OF A WOMAN SHE IS…AND IF SHE DOES, CHRIS BROWN GROUPIES WILL TEAR HER APART FOR SPEAKIN UP AGAINST HIM…SAD DAY ..SHE NEEDS TO KEEP HER WORD AND COOPERATE WITH THE COPS…LIKE ANY OTHER WOMAN WOULD..TRY TO GAIN SOME DIGNITY BACK RIHANNA..THATS THE LEAST YOU CAN DO!!
We know this, she does't want to be exposed. She started the whole scene, she just wants everyone to keep pretending that she's a little ANGEL. BULLSH#T! Chris Please leave this foolish girl alone, She has no respect for herself or you.
interesting Rihanna’s attorney told Chris in court that Ms. Fenty wants this to end quickly. I hope Rihanna’s Law passes TMZ has no right to publish leak photos and police statement. LAPD & DA what going with investigation of the leak photo?
FOX stfu and gth. and her haters can follow. She is scared for herself not for Chris. She is going to get ripped by the defense and she knows it. Get real, it has nothing to do with the love of Chris. Hopefully, it's all very clear to Chris and his people.
that's *his haters and her followers* can go to hell too.
i dnt no wat to say cuz rihanna dnt no wat she goin to do one minute she testifyin and another she not wat the hell and”she a role model for young girls”….wat kinda shit is dat she aint no fuckin role model….and the media keep comparin dis promblem wit mike tyson and his wife to dis one and im like mike tyson wife didnt start it like rihanna did so wat the hell…
if she didnt want to cooperate she shouldnt have identified chris as her attacker in the first place she should have took her ass home and been done with it and they would have made up…and no i dont want my kids listening to her music cause i dont want my girls to think they should go back to someone that hit them..i want her ass to go away….I have always been a fan of Chris Brown..
lol rihanna sucks
rihanna make up ur damn mind. first u say that chris was ur attacker, then u say u dont want to cooperate. u said all the bullshit of what had happened but really isnt tru. this shit aint goin away. if she didnt open her big mouth then it wouldve not been this big. she says she loves him, then hates him, then loves him.???????????????
WOW I NO I AINT THAT STUPID
SHE IS COOPERATING!
March 30, 2009 More rumours said to be false
Reports circulating that Rihanna is not cooperating with prosecutors in the Chris Brown case are bogus, according to prosecutors.
Sandi Gibbons from the L.A. County D.A.’s office tells us, “We deal with her attorney who says she is a cooperating victim.”

it said working thru her lawyer. If her lawyer knows Mark's defense, he's a lousy MFing lawyer. Tthere is no way I can see his laywer working with her lawyer and she's trying to bury him. Chris can sue Mark, for that sh*t.
We're really not going to what's the truth until the 6th. He may even plead guilty to get this over with, who knows. TMZ is going to heat this up until then anyway, so screw them.
KISS KISS your're right it says through her lawyer which may just means that she wants to know her rights in all of this..it doesnt means that she is still going with that bs story she give the cops..i heard it myself in court when rihanna lawyer told chris she just wants this over.. i really doubt she wants him to go to jail but the da wants him to because of the public outcry..hopefully he get a misdeamnor that what praying for
i cant wait til this is over…im tired of hearing about how innocent and precious rihanna is and so many people bashing Chris
I know that's right..all these rumors and negative energy surrounding both rihanna and chris is killin me…i hope april 6th brings us all to a resolution..and a good one too.
I miss seeing him dance and grinning on the red or orange carpets.
I keep watching his performances at the awards shows on YouTube, this is making me mega depressed.
Musikfreak,
Exactly
This article or story is not true. Rihanna does not want to be seen as a liar by getting on the stand against Chris . She also doesn't want Chris to go to jail, because she didn't tell the whole truth. She also dont want to be prosecuted for lying to the police. She also dont want her career to be over if others find out that she is not an enabler or a victim, and that she is an attacker of assult. The prosecutors think they have a case with photos that just dont go with the affidavit on felony charges. When you are not educated in law you tend to not know better. Lack of knowledge can hurt us and make up seem so ignorant. Judge Judy said it all: " This is not a case about Domestic Violence this is a assult/ battery case". Misdemenor all the way and probation. IT IS SO SIMPLE EVEN IF CHRIS BROWN AND RIHANNA WASN'T CELEBRITIES BUT JUST PLAIN EVERYDAY PEOPLE.
Bullshit SMFH wow
hope he pleads no contest which he admits no guilt .people took this story and ran like a runaway train. I love CB and cant wait to see him sing and dance again. And live a normal life again without people nick picking everything he do. Live You Life Chris we Love You
Riahnna gonna keep her word and testify, best believe!!! If called, she will get on up there and do her bit!! Love you RIRI!!!! Keep yo head up girl. If Chris cared about the police and charges, he wouldn't have left her there for the cops to pick her up. chris wanted her to talk to the cops i guess cause he left her there. Maybe it was a cry for help.
Rihanna will also be under oath so she has to tell the truth and nothing but the truth so help her God. That means if she testifies she is going to have to tell the jury and judge that not every word that came out of her mouth that night was true.They both are wrong, but we only see one side of everything. Both attacked each other both should share the consequences. If both cannot share the consequences of their actions than Chris shouldn't have to either.
I is havin' a party on April 6. We gone done ourselves a barbie q and celebrate breezy inosence. It aint no woman out there that can lie about my boo and put him in jail for something he was provoked to do. Self defence. That slut aint got no scruples. Yeah, I said it, she ain't go no mah'fucking scruples. She gone get what she deserve. She gone get a real beat down when the world realize she aint nothing but a trifflin hoe up in this mug. I luh you breezy. I luh you err'day more and more. You my boo and thats for life! You are inocent in my eyes and you are my breezy boo.
I don't know why Rihanna is so angry when she's the one who helped the police start a case against Chris in the first place by telling on him and giving details to the police about Chris hitting her, and all that stuff. She should've just kept her mouth shut if she's not goin to coorporate with the police. And they need to quit using the leaked photo of Rihanna's bruises as an excuse just to get out of this mess.
i no rite she jus needed to shut up. I agree
Can all this jus be over with already???????
chris is much better then that .. shes bosses him around n he is wayyy better than dat.. chris move on plz
Hes innocent in my eyes also.
