Under siege R&B star Chris Brown has made his first statement albeit on the internet, following his alleged assault on his girlfriend Rihanna. Brown confirmed his split from the Barbadian beauty by changing his relationship status on his private Facebook page, to ’single,’ which makes me think ‘gee you think Chris?’. Perhaps something like ‘upset’ or ‘troubled’ might be a little more appropriate under the circumstances?The private page with this update - listed under his full name Christopher Maurice Brown is separate to his public Facebook and MySpace pages used by his fans
The singer also posted an update reading: “You’ll begin to see her true colors. Believe it!”
Brown’s comment appears to suggest Rihanna, 20, is partly to blame for the alleged attack which left her with heavy bruising, scratches and bite marks. I am sure that will make some of his diehard fans happy because many refuse to believe Brown is at fault and every accused person deserves his day in court. But if the reports of Rihanna’s injuries are true and they do seem to be substantiated all the provacation in the world doesn’t justify a man beating a woman like that.
In his profile picture, Brown is seen hugging a mystery brunette while smiling and pulling her leg across his body. I try to remember that Brown is 19-years-old but this is really juvenile stuff, just the wrong time to be sending that message ‘I’m still a player’!
Police so far have charged Brown with making criminal threats, and more serious charges could follow.
