Jay-Z Speaks on Rihanna & Chris Brown· 16 Comments · Site Updates · |
Jay-Z struck a serious note Saturday when asked for his words of support for Rihanna.
“This is a real situation,” he said in Phoenix at the Sprite Green presents the Third Annual Two Kings dinner with Jay-Z and Lebron James, as part of the NBA All-Star Weekend.
“You have to have compassion for others. Just imagine it being your sister or mom and then think about how we should talk about that,” the hip-hop mogul, 39, continued.
“I just think we should all support her. She’s going through a tough time. You have to realize she’s a young girl, as well. She’s very young.”
Rihanna, 20, was allegedly attacked in Los Angeles on Feb. 8 by boyfriend Chris Brown, 19. He was arrested and may face charges from the district attorney.
Rihanna’s father, Ronald Fenty, tells PEOPLE that his daughter, whom he saw Thursday in Barbados, is bruised, but “she will be all right.”
Asked if he’d seen Rihanna, Jay-Z replied, “I don’t want to go into it.”
Thanks Michaela!

yeah, she is young and people should respect the fact that they shouldnt attack the younger generation as we are the people who might be able to stop all the fighting in the world, but at this rate, thats never gonna happen, is it?
i pray that rihanna and chris brown get back toghether they look like a goo d couple
@crystal: yeah same here with me wtf
Look,
I’m possibly Rihanna’s greatest fan: this is my fave website btw… and I know that generally i would be quite angry with chris… but since chris seems to be genuinely sorry it makes u think hey… he is human. I AM ON RIRI’s side! but still… the poor guy. his rep has been damaged for good. also Jay Z is awesome and i really wanted to hear him talk about rihanna more…
I am rihannas number1 fan love her songs and i kinda feel sorry for chris but he should not have done that and chris should have thought what he was doing b4 he done he has proberly lost loads of fans including me
Get well soon rihanna x
Dont listen to stupid rumours.
Hope_rihanna_gets_better x
i am the biggest riri fan out there and am so dissapointed in chris. i hope she gets better soon, love asha south africa
hey.. guys Rihanna has been nominated 2 times for IDMA 24th annual international dance music awards against ne-yo,beyonce,estelle,kanye west, jenet j and chris brown and many more, please go to http://www.wintermusicconference.com/idmaballot/finalballot.php and vote for her.
i did about ten times
I am a woman with three daughters. The thought of a man putting his hands (in violence) on them is enough to set me on fire. She is a beautiful young woman and hopefully has the courage and fortitude to walk away while she still can. Once a man goes to these extremes of violence, it does not stop. It will continue. We as women must stop caring for men more than we love and care for ourselves. We are more than someones whipping post. You cannot love a person and beat them. That is not love, its insanity. Rihanna is a beautiful young lady with so much talent. I pray she will heal inside and outside. As for Chris Brown I pray that he too will heal but have the decency to move on and leave rihanna alone.
I’m not a big blogger so I’ll be brief but it strikes that most of the messages relating to this situation seem to focus on how sorry chris brown Is instead of grasping the seriousness of the situation I have to say I’m a fan of both artist but although I’m trying to understand his side I do not comprehend him allegedly bitting her let alone hitting her. If she was a “regular” girl we would be using the “oh she’s just trying to get paid” excuse but since it’s rihanna we seem to focus more on his “apology” then her side of the story we as asociety allow this behavior from a young age when we tell our daughters that a boy likes her when he’s mean to her or exhibits a violent behavior towards her. how else we expect those same young man to act when they grow up.the one thing I can say is this imagine if she was your sister your daughter or your mother how would you react?
I’m not a Jay-Z fan, per se, but I appreciated Jay-Z’s comments on this issue. He’s showing the wisdom of his years, by not speculating, not being drawn in to expressing his anger, basically not giving the media any tales to tell… He really did the right thing. He gave the situation some perspective. Hopefully that will cause people to think.
