Well, it’s official: Chris Brown and Rihanna are back together according to Brown. In another big revelation…water is wet.
During an interview at the Elton John after-party following the Oscars, Brown told the New York Post, “We are really happy. We are back together. She is the most beautiful girl in the world. But I’m sad she couldn’t be here tonight; she is rehearsing for her tour.”
For those few who were holding out hope for a Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran reunion, you can officially begin mourning now. Tran fans hope might have been renewed when Karrueche took to her Twitter account to say “good night” to her followers; tweeting a picture from the same house that Brown reportedly rented in Houston for his stay during All-Star weekend. However, reports quickly squashed any hope of the one-time couple reuniting. Regarding the tweet, an inside source said, “He saw K.T. but nothing went down like that though. They’re cool friends.”
Despite running into his ex during All-Star weekend, Rihanna’s on-again bad-boy boyfriend proved his loyalty by rushing to her side in Hawaii to help her celebrate her birthday on Feb. 20th. The pair was spotted holding hands and sitting on the shore relaxing; seemingly enjoying some quiet time and reflecting. About his rekindled relationship with his one true love, Brown said to the UK Mirror, “‘That night (the assault that happened in 2009) was the deepest regret of my life, the biggest mistake,” said the R&B star. Having a rare moment of clarity, the pop superstar seems to be coming to terms with how wrong his actions were that night. He went on to say: “But she loves me – what can I say? I’m forgiven… but, yes, I worked hard for it.”
While Rihanna may have forgiven Chris, some of the public can’t seem to move past the incident. Last year the ‘Don’t Wake Me Up’ singer got into a nasty Twitter fight with comedian Jenny Johnson when she attacked him verbally. While Johnson had been practically stalking the singer for two years, never missing a chance to remind the singer of his actions the night of 2009, his rant against her once again left the R&B singer in the hot seat.
One can’t help but hope that Brown is doing some serious introspection in not only the direction of his relationship, but the direction of his career. Now that Brown is on the road to redemption with Rihanna, how do you feel about their reunion? Is she setting the wrong example for victims of domestic violence? Or is the couple just living their lives, trying to figure out day by day how to maintain a relationship and high-profile career?
