Chris Brown BANNED From UK, Tour Postponed

In case you are just hearing, on the 8th of June, Chris Brown was denied entry into Britain. This bold stance of the British is not unconnected to Brown’s recent below the belt actions against Rihanna couples of months ago, most especially the battery and the eventual leaking of her nude pictures sent to Brown while their love affairs lasted. But, released on the net in an unprecedented fashion in the music industry. Nothing short of breach of trust ,the despicable pictures are hereby reproduced.

FROM THE RECORD,2009

Nude Rihanna photos, or what is supposedly the Barbadian pop star Rihanna, have spread around the web and around the world.
Seven pictures have been posted that show various body parts, including two close ups of what is clearly Rihanna's face




And a third photo of Rihanna head-to-knee reflected in a bathroom mirror as she takes the photo with a message of "I love you" scrawled on it.



All seven shots appear to be self taken in the same white bathroom and bedroom area and are mildly gritty.
The four shots that do NOT include Rihanna's head in them include two of a bare bottom as seen reflected in a mirror,





one of a dark lacquer-nailed hand squeezing a bottom and a photo of an undressed torso from a reflection in a mirror. One breast is pierced and pink Nike towel is flung over a shoulder hiding the other.



Rihanna was in New York all of last week, starting with Monday's Vogue-sponsored Met gala, in her first public appearances since the Grammy-eve fracas with then-boyfriend Chris Brown.



Late Friday her record label reportedly got involved and sent out a letter to a website that published the pics demanding that they be removed, calling the photos a violation of "the Artist's rights."


Rihanna Calls Leak of Naked Pictures 'Humiliating'

Rihanna

Rihanna is speaking out about the nude pictures of her that were leaked shortly after the February confrontation with Chris Brown that left her battered and emotionally distraught.



While promoting her album, Rated R, in an interview with New York City radio station Hot 97, the singer admitted she was the woman in the naked photos, which were leaked earlier this year.

"They were for my boyfriend at the time," Rihanna, 21, said, adding, "if you don't send your boyfriend naked pictures, then I feel bad for him."



But discovering nude photographs of herself on the Internet – just weeks after a photo of her battered face also found its way online, allegedly having been leaked by the police department – the singer said, "trust me, I was [freaked out].



"It was the worst thing that could possibly ever happen to me. I just felt like my whole privacy was taken before that [with the other photo leak] and then, when that came out, I thought, 'Oh great, so now there's nothing they don't know about me and my private life,' " she said. "It was humiliating and it was embarrassing – especially my mom having to see that."

Nervous about her mother's reaction to the second photo scandal, Rihanna sent flowers before calling to break the news, just two days before Mother's Day. "I was nervous [but] when the world is against me she's always there supporting," said the singer.

Saving Lives

As for the mixed reaction Rihanna says she got when she finally began speaking out about her fight with Brown, 20, "It tripped me up. [People] think I have an agenda to destroy his career but that's not what it's about."

Instead, she says, she wants to help other young women who might also be the victims of domestic abuse. "I was very hesitant to ever talk about it … but there are young girls out there that need to hear this," she said. "Say what you want but we're saving lives here."

And Rihanna adds that the experience has taught her how to avoid such problems down the road.

"My whole relationship with him was a learning experience. There was a lot of insecurity and a lot of control issues," she said. "In relationships in the future I know how to watch out for certain things. A lot of those were signs. I learned that in the end."
