Rihanna and Chris Brown's Videos Debuting on Same Day

Rihanna just can’t seem to fully separate herself from Chris Brown, no matter how hard she tries. Both singers are set to release music videos on the exact same day.

Rihanna will release her video for “Russian Roulette” from her upcoming album Rated R this Friday on 20/20. And now MTV reports that Chris’ video for “Crawl” will premiere Friday as well.

Chris’ video will air during the Wendy Williams show, with singer Cassie appearing on the track as well. Rihanna was originally supposed to premiere “Russian Roulette” last Friday when she spoke with Diane Sawyer for the first time about her attack. But the video ended up not being done with editing by the time of the taping.

Wonder who’s video will be more well-received? Check back on Hollyscoop.com for both music videos this Friday. Rihanna’s entire album, Rated R, comes out November 23rd, while Chris’ Graffiti doesn’t drop until December 15th.

Chris Brown Doesn't Know Why People Perceive Him Wrong

Chris Brown appears as a guest on the Wendy Williams today to talk about how he’s getting on with his life post-Rihanna.

He says he’s tried countless times to apologize for beating up his then-girlfriend, and he just doesn’t understand why people won’t move past it.

"The steps that I’ve taken to show that I’m sorry probably have been perceived wrong," Brown says, “Certain things when I’m doing certain interviews and how my posture is to how I’m acting.”

"At the end of the day, I’m definitely remorseful and it’s not something that I take lightly or think that it’s like under the rug," he goes on. "I really think it’s something that is a serious matter and I’m learning from it."

Chris definitely has a solid group of fans sticking by his side, however. Just yesterday, the New York Post put up a video that showed Chris at a Foot Locker in NYC posing with dozens of fans.

One woman, however, didn’t appreciate Chris getting all of that attention, yelling to him, “F**king beater! You belong in jail. I hope someone beats the f**king crap out of you!"

Do you think Chris has done enough to show his remorse for what he did to Rihanna, or is he trying to move on too soon?

Chris Brown to Rihanna: Assault Was a "Private Matter"

After Chris Brown assaulted and publicly humiliated Rihanna, she stayed mum for nine months. She didn't give a single interview, didn't bad mouth him and refused to address the issue. And that's just the way Chris liked it. But now that Rihanna has come forward and given the world details about the night she was assaulted, he's upset with her because he believes it should have been a "private matter."

"While I respect Rihanna's right to discuss the specific events of February 8," Brown says in a statement to MTV News, "I maintain my position that all of the details should remain a private matter between us."

We're sure Rihanna would have loved to have kept the photo of her bruised and bloody face private too, but when you're a celebrity, nothing stays private for too long.

During Rihanna's interview with Diane Sawyer, she said Chris put her in a headlock twice and bit her on the ear and fingers. "He had no soul in his eyes," Rihanna said. "He was clearly blacked out. There was no person when I looked at him."

In his statement today, Brown continued, "I do appreciate [Rihanna's] support and wish her the best. I am extremely sorry for what I did, and I accept accountability for my actions," he tells MTV.

"At this point, I am taking the proper steps to learn about me and grow from my mistakes. I only hope that others in similar situations can learn from our experience as well. Abuse of any kind is always wrong. The rest I leave it to God."

After all that Rihanna's gone through, Chris really can't be upset with her for telling her side of the story. She spoke out about being abused hoping her message will help save other women who are also in an abusive relationship.

Chris Brown Still Learning From Mistakes: Gives Candid Interview

Chris Brown, the 'Run It' singer gave a candid interview on US radio, where he spoke about his regret at assaulting former girlfriend Rihanna in February, and told how he is trying his best to make amends.

He said: "I'm human. If people feel a certain way, I'm not going to say they're wrong. But it's not right to judge somebody when people make mistakes all the time.

"I've learned from my mistakes and I'm learning from them. And I regret every moment, every second of it."

Chris, 20, also admitted he is still not over 'Disturbia' singer Rihanna, and still has strong feelings for her.

Rihanna: I Was "Wrong" For Taking Chris Brown Back

All week we've been talking about the much anticipated Rihanna interview, which aired on Good Morning America today. It was Rihanna's first television interview since the incident that took place in February that changed her life forever.

During the interview Rihanna admitted she was "wrong" for going back to Chris Brown shortly after the assault.

"That's embarrassing that that's the type of person that I fell in love with," Rihanna told Diane Sawyer. "So far in love. So unconditional that I went back. It's humiliating to say this happened. To accept that? It's a traumatizing experience."

"I stayed. I even went back after he beat me, which was wrong," she added. "But again ... I'm a human being and people put me on a very unrealistic pedestal. And all these expectations, I'm not perfect."

Rihanna said that she felt so selfish going back to Chris because she didn't realize what a big influence she might be to other young battered women.

"It's completely normal to go back. It's not right. I learned the hard way, but again, this is what I want people to know," she said. "When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result in some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part. I couldn't be held responsible for going back.

"Even if Chris never hit me again, who is to say that their boyfriend won't? Who's to say that they won't kill these girls?" she went on. "These are young girls and I just didn't realize how much of an impact I had on these girls' lives until that happened."

Rihanna admits that life has not been so easy after leaving Chris. She says that it has been one of the "most lonely times" because "nobody understands what it's like."

Chris Brown Talks About Rihanna Assault

Rihanna's first television interview aired on Good Morning America on Thursday and Chris Brown's MTV interview will air on Friday. During the interview, Chris will once again address the incident that changed both their lives back in February.

"My thoughts [when I look back on it now] is like, 'Why did it happen?' Like, 'What was I thinking? What is wrong with you?' That's what I'm thinking with myself. That's what my thoughts are, basically, now," Chris says during the interview.

The incident that took place led to Brown being sentenced to 5 years probation and hundreds of hours of community service. Chris however, admits that he is ready to move forward with his life.

"It's like, 'How do we get past it? How do you, Chris' – talking to myself – 'how do you go from point A to point B? How do you learn from your mistakes, turn it into a positive and help other people with the situation, and at the end of the day become the person that you want to be?' "

During the interview Sway Calloway asks Brown what triggered the assault to which he replied, "Just anger … Yeah, anger … Young people, we do before we think."

Chris is currently in group therapy to help him manage his anger.

"Like, I think with my fans, they still love me, they support me, definitely. You have those people who will support you. So it's kinda like 50/50 for me. I got the people that will come out and support and then the people that don't wanna see me do anything. They basically want me in jail."

Both Chris and Rihanna have albums coming out soon, hence the reason they are both speaking out about the assault. Will you support Chris Brown and buy his album?

Chris Brown Interview to Air One Day After Rihanna's

Leave it to Chris Brown to one-up Rihanna. The girl finally agreed to doing an interview to discuss the attack nine whole months after it happened, and Chris has to steal her thunder.

Right after ABC announced they’d be airing the exclusive Rihanna interview this Thursday on Good Morning America, all of a sudden Chris has one airing on MTV on Friday.

In the one-on-one, Chris sits down with MTV correspondent Sway to discuss what he’s learned from the incident. Didn’t we already hear all of this anyway?

Chris Brown: The Interview, premieres on MTV this Friday, November 6th. Check out a clip below.

Rihanna Says She and Chris Were "Dangerous"

Rihanna will be speaking candidly for the first time since her attack tomorrow on Good Morning America. And one of the things she will reportedly address is sort of relationship she and Chris Brown had.

She says to Diane Sawyer, "The more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for each other. This happened to me ... it can happen to anyone.”

Rihanna also tells Diane that her life changed dramatically from that one night to the next morning. "I felt like I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears,” she says.

“That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day. It was like, What, there are helicopters circling my house? There are 100 people in my cul-de-sac? What do you mean, I can't go back home?"

She also addresses the bruised and battered picture that leaked of her onto the internet. "That is not a photo you would show to anybody," she says. "I felt completely taken advantage of. I felt like people were making it into a fun topic on the Internet, and it's my life."

But if there’s one thing Rihanna has learned this year, it’s that you can’t trust many people. "My friends and family have been extremely supportive, and everyone has been there for me. But at some point you are there alone. It's a lonely place to be -- no one can understand," she says. "That's when you get close to God."

Chris Brown Still Feeling the Heat From Rihanna Incident

Chris Brown is trying to move on with his life following his very public attack on ex girlfriend Rihanna back in February, but he just can't seem to get past his very big mistake.

Chris says he's been trying to make amends since the incident, but finds it really difficult because he's still getting a lot of heat about the attack.

He said: “I’m human. If people feel a certain way, I’m not going to say they’re wrong. But it’s not right to judge somebody when people make mistakes all the time.

He added, “I’ve learned from my mistakes and I’m learning from them. And I regret every moment, every second of it.”

It doesn't help that he's still in love with Rihanna either! He added in an interview with New York radio station Hot 97: “We’ve been friends since I was like 15, we got serious when I was like 17.

“Feelings are feelings and they don’t go away overnight, especially if you sit down and are like, ‘Look, I’m going to really be in this relationship with you, whatever the case, past our busy schedules, past us being two of the biggest artists.’ I really care about her.”

While a restraining order would prevent them from meeting or talking again, Chris said he would do things differently if he got another chance with her.

Chris said: “I won’t let you down anymore. That was one of the most embarrassing things for me, because of my image and who I was as a young role model to a lot of kids. It was hard for me.”

Sounds like someone's still feeling the massive backlash. A lot of Chris' fans abandoned him after he attacked Rihanna, and most of them had a hard time forgiving him for it. Did you?

Rihanna's bumbrella hell-a Naked sex pics shock

UMBRELLA singer Rihanna is said to be devastated after explicit pictures of her posing naked appeared on the internet.

Two shots taken by the star herself in a hotel bathroom mirror reveal her bare bum - but a third photo is far more revealing.

Rihanna, 21, is said to be so embarrassed she's fled Hollywood and taken refuge in Hawaii. It is yet more misery for the star who in February was allegedly attacked by then boyfriend, singer Chris Brown. Leaked photos revealed shocking injuries to her face. He was charged with assault.

One of Rihanna's pals said: "She is freaking out. She was on the road to recovery after a terrible few months. She has no idea how these pictures have been leaked but she's determined to find out." One photo shows a man, believed to be Brown, sitting in the hotel room with a pair of pink pants on his head. Rihanna is recording a new album in Hawaii. Her pal added: "She's rushed off to Hawaii to escape the scrutiny.

"She's recording her new album and wants to shut herself in the studio away from the world for a few days."

The Good Girl Gone Bad singer posed for raunchy shots in the January issue of Germany's FHM mag, but preserved her modesty with a strategically placed umbrella.

She has insisted in the past that she would never want to be pictured naked, saying: "My mother would kill me if I posed nude."

Rihanna's record label Island Def Jam demanded that the photos be removed because they "violate the artist's rights". But her lawyers have not denied that the photos are genuine.

Chris Brown Denies Leaking Nude Photos of Rihanna

We've yet to hear anything from Rihanna's camp in regards to the nude photos of her that were leaked onto the internet Friday afternoon, but Chris Brown wants to end speculation that he was the one who leaked them.

When asked if Chris was responsible for the leaked photos, his rep told Essence.com, "This is both a false and defamatory statement. Chris has not released or 'leaked' any photos of Rihanna (or anyone else for that matter)."

Chris' lawyer Mark Geragos is still trying to get his hands on the investigation paperwork in regards to the leaked photo a bruised and beaten Rihanna that was allegedly sold to TMZ.

Chris Brown's Lawyer Requests LAPD Records

Chris Brown's lawyer Mark Geragos is trying to get Brown’s case dismissed by requesting records of the police department’s internal investigation to find out how exactly the photo of a battered Rihanna leaked online.

Geragos is alleging that LAPD is to blame, and leaked the photo, which appeared on TMZ. Geragos tells E! News, "The leaks can form the basis for a motion to dismiss the case in regards to outrageous governmental misconduct.”

According to court papers obtained by Radar, Geragos said, "I'm informed and believe that on or about Feb. 19, 2009, a photograph taken by the LAPD depicting physical injuries on Ms. Fenty's person was illegally leaked to the media.

"Specifically, I am informed and believe that this highly prejudicial photograph was sold by an LAPD officer to the entertainment website, TMZ.

"The photograph was immediately viewed by hundreds of thousands of viewers and was displayed on every news channel for several weeks...The purpose of the leak was necessarily for profit and to vilify Mr. Brown and poison the potential jury pool."

In short, Chris' lawyer wants the entire case dismissed because the leak constitutes “demonstratable bias on the part of the involved officers."

Next up for Chris is a preliminary hearing on May 28th. Can you imagine if he got off on a technicality like that?!

Rihanna's Dad: Chris is Old News

Despite several media outlets reporting that Rihanna and her ex Chris Brown have secretly reconciled (and are even living together?!), Rihanna's father insists she's not only over him, he's already "old news."

Speaking to Us Weekly about his daughter's recent vacation in her native Barbados, Ronald Fenty said: "Chris sounds like old news to me... [Rihanna is a] different person, back to herself. It’s like Chris never existed. She seems reborn."

Sources close to Chris' camp tell Hollyscoop that Rihanna wants nothing to do with Chris, and is going to great lengths not to be at the same place at the same time to avoid media speculation of a reunion.

While Rihanna is constantly being linked to random celebrities, Chris has remained relatively low-key since the incident back in February. If you could play matchmaker for Rihanna, who would you set her up with?
