What Exactly Are Rihanna's Injuries?
Depending on which site you read at any particular moment, the injuries Rihanna allegedly sustained at the hands or mouth of Chris Brown range from a scratch all the way to horrific. So, what exactly are her injuries, and aren't we all going to look like idiots if Chris Brown didn't actually do what everyone has convicted him of already?
According to TMZ, Rihanna was bitten on her arms and fingers and contusions on both sides of her face and that she accuses Chris of using his fists in the attack. They also said the policeman they spoke to had seen the photos and described the injuries as "horrific."
The Los Angeles Times would only say that Rihanna had some bruises and a scratch on her face.
E! Online doesn't talk about the injuries in their report, but does say that Rihanna canceled her well publicized and completely sold out Malaysia show which was scheduled for Friday. She is expected to make up that date at some point in the future.
US Weekly has gone with the Los Angeles Times version of injuries and also stated that Chris Brown had decided against performing at the NBA All Star game this weekend. He has also left the state of California on a private plane no less, although he is due back for an arraignment on March 5th.
MSNBC is going with the more sensationalized version of the injuries, and also announced that Wrigley had dropped Chris Brown's commercials for the chewing gum.
Oh, and on a side note. All of the sites use the quote from Rihanna's rep where the rep says, "Rihanna is well. Thanks for your concern and support." Umm, I don't think she is well and I think it does a disservice to try and give some politically correct answer in a situation like this. How about something that say she hurts like hell, is mad as hell and feels like crap, but thanks for your concern and support. When you say that she is well, it just kind of sounds pretentious and fake.
