In several months, it will have been a year since Chris Brown beat up Rihanna, and it is only now that the female singer will be breaking her silence about the whole thing. In the meanwhile, Chris Brown has been sentenced to community service, Rihanna has been churning out hits. Tune in to Good Morning America this Friday to hear what she has to say!

Rihanna Plays the Russian Roulette
It’s about time. Rihanna is back with a new single under Island Def Jam Records. “Russian Roulette†is a dark ballad that fans interpret as referential to her emotional relationship with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. He is still under a court order that requires him to stay away from his former girlfriend after assaulting her on the eve of the Grammy Awards.
The single is part of her upcoming album Rated R. Both the album and music video will be available in November.
And what a coincidence. Rihanna’s new single was released last Tuesday, the same day Chris Brown announced the dates of his fan appreciation tour and launched his new single.
Although “Russian Roulette†isn’t as impressive as her previous R&B hits, the single’s edgy graphics are worthy of your attention. It features a bolder Rihanna wrapped in a nude corset and barbed wires. Polish it off with her initials made of blade and a blood-dripping title, and you’re looking at the new princess of bondage fashion.
There’s nothing like heartache to make a good girl go bad.

Rihanna Livin’ It Up
Finally, Rihanna seems to be back in the swing of things. She was seen at XS nightclub in the Encore in Las Vegas in a hot white dress, drawing attention to, well, her cleavage. No one’s complaining! I guess she was just waiting for the case against Chris Brown to be over with, huh?
