Chris Brown and Rihanna

The news last week that Chris Brown and Rihanna have collaborated on her new album had a lot of jaws on the floor around Tinseltown. It has barely been three years since Chris Brown was convicted of beating Rihanna. Then just last year Chris Brown lost his temper and smashed a window in the 'Good Morning America' studios after being asked a question about the assault. The general consensus seems to be that Rihanna is mad to be courting her abuser, we just hope she knows what she's doing!
