Rihanna Interview On 20/20 Full Interview

Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America:
It is hard to imagine a more glamorous star, and she is breaking her silence for the first time, since we saw that picture of her so bruised and battered last February. Tomorrow she will describe in detail what happened in the car with Chris Brown and why in a few weeks after she decided to go back to him. It was a mistake she says and sent the wrong message to so many young girls in doing the same thing. to

Rihanna:
Hey Mr.
Hey Mr. DJ

Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America:
So successful, so powerful, so bold. Once a little girl from the tiny island of Barbados, she had dreamed her way into one of the biggest careers in music. Starting at age 16 Rihanna would have more number one songs than any other artist in this decade. A multi-million dollar bank account, endorsement deals, a fashion star and then one night her equally famous boyfriend, Chris Brown, beat her so badly the whole world was shocked to discover there was a secret life. Rihanna says she was ashamed, unwilling to speak until now to those of us who thought, how could it happen to someone so strong.

Rihanna:
I am strong. This happened to me. I didn’t cause this. I didn’t do it. This happened to me and it could happen to anybody. There are a lot of women who experienced what I did but not in the public so it made it really difficult. I just felt, Oh My God – he goes my little bit of privacy – just people – exposed – like – its something that nobody wants anybody to know. So here I am – the whole world knowing.

Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America:
Why be ashamed?

Rihanna:
Because, that. I didn’t want people to think that’s the kind of person I – I fell in love with that person – that’s embarrassing. That’s embarrassing that’s the type of person that I fell in love with. So far in love. So unconditional that I went back.

Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America:
On average – I think it takes a woman seven times before she leaves.

Rihanna:
Eight or nine, actually. And I don’t want that to happen. That’s not what I want to teach people. But again, people – you – I’m – I’m – I’m a huma being, and people put me on an unrealistic pedistle and all these expectations and I’m not perfect. Also it’s pretty natural for that to be the first reaction. It – it – its completely normal to go back. You start lieing to yourself. The minute the physical wounds go away – you – you want this thing to go away – this is a memory you don’t want to have – ever again.

Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America:
Tommorrow she will tell us what happened that left her so bloody, bruised and battered and why she went back and what other girls she hopes will hear.

Rihanna:
When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result in some young girl getting killed, I could not – I could not be easy with that part. I couldn’t be held responsible for telling them to go back. Chris, even if Chris never hit me again, who is to say that their boyfriend won’t? Whose to say that they wont kill these girls and these and these are young girls and I could not. I just didn’t realize how much of an impact I had on these girls lives until that happened. Until that happened, it was a wake up call. It was a wake up call for me. Big Time. Espeacially when I took myself out of the situation and I’ll say that to any young girl who is going through domestic violence – Don’t react off of love. “F” – Love. To come out of the situation and look at it – third person anf for what it really is and then make your decision because love is so blind.

Diane Sawyer on Good Morning America:
And we will have more tomorrow as she talks about the reality – the reality of her life – the life we could not have imagined. An exclusive interview of course and the full interview will be tomorrow night on ABC’s 20/20 at 10 o’clock, 9 central and way in on Rihanna and this whole issue on ABC dot com.
