After months of silence, Rihanna finally decided to come forward and openly discuss the February 2009 beating that she endured at the hands of her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. Rihanna spoke exclusively to 20/20's Diane Sawyer and was not shy about expressing her feelings.
What was she thinking as he was attacking her on that fateful day? "When is it going to stop? When is it going to stop? He had no soul in his eyes. Just blank. He was clearly blacked-out. There was no person when I looked at him. I was battered, I was bleeding, I was swollen in my face," she recounted.
Amazingly, the singer claims to have no negative feelings towards even admitting that she still has love for the abuser. "No, I don't hate him at all. I actually love and care about him. I want him to do well, have a great career, have a great life and grow up. And just take this as something you had to go through to grow up and learn."
Wise words from an amazing woman.
