It seems if one is to believe most media outlets, Rihanna by normalizing relations with Chris Brown has ostensibly sent a message that domestic violence is okay, but that may be further from the truth when in reality these two entertainers live distinct lives and have not sought to be romantically involved with each other again. It just may well be that Rihanna has gotten over the incident of 3 years ago and is simply forging a high profile collaboration that both her and Chris Brown are aware will keep them in the public eye which isn't necessarily a bad thing when you're in the business of selling your public image.

What though is interesting is the high benchmark we have placed on Rihanna to play moral ideals when perhaps it might be more useful to look within ourselves instead.

Can't wait to see the "Rihanna found dead" article in the coming months or years.

Good. Now can we all move on from this mess? Rihanna and Chris Brown are grown, let them live THEIR lives. I am a fan of both and support both.
