I was in an abusive relationship, and the release of this picture may be embarassing to her right now but will be good in the end. There were, and still are, so many people that were willing to defend Chris Brown because there are two sides to every story- much like what I went through. People need to see what abuse is really about. It is hidden, and so many don't want to talk about it, or see it, and believe that it's none of their business. Maybe more people will be willing to help, or try to be more sympathetic, after seeing this. The release of this picture has definately helped more than hurt.

17. First of all I don't see no dam split lip. I see dried blood on her face. There is no contusions as was reported. This whole exploitation of the situation is laughable to say the least, the media is out for blood trying to lynch a young man who might have made a mistake. But I do not see the rhetoric in blowing this out of proportion. Wake up the people doing the slaying of his name is worst then the act itself...

19. This is exactly the right thing to do - good on you TMZ.
Why?
Because this is the ugly face of domestic violence ... actually its battery. Look at this poor girl - beaten to a literally bloody pulp.
Is this exceptable? Hell no! This is why all need to see the consequences of domestic violence and battery - send this Chris Brown to prison and maybe someone, somewhere will think twice about beating up a lady.

20. i seriously think this picture should be taken down. But i also think Chris Was wrong for what he did. she is a woman, and you do not put your hands on a woman. dudes got serious issues. what he needs to be doing is hiring his publicist to get the story cleared instead of running away from the situation. I think it was a wrong turn for Chris Brown. Others wanted to stay on the story of britney so now its time for Chris to get his serve. But i think its turned enough he already lost 2 deals and contracts. LEAVE IT ALONE! i think they should hire chris crocker. "LEAVE RIHANNA ALONE!" haha. its over give it up. let them live their lives and get on with their careers.
JESSH.
whats next?

21. Yes, it's embarrassing for her to have this picture leaked. But guess what, thats what happened to her face from that Asshole Chris Brown. Look what he did to that beautiful young lady. He's the one that should be embarrassed not her! She should rise above and NOT go back to him. Maybe she'll start a shelter or some type of foundation for young battered women. Poor girl I

22. Neither one of their careers are over. It will only make them both more famous.You watch and see. She may even go back with him(apparently this was not the first incident)She is partly responsible and I don't mean she deserved it.Just when it happens over and over it will happen again.

23. GREAT JOB TMZ FOR SHOWING THIS FAKE PICTURE. AS FOR RIHANNA IF I CATCH HER IN MEMPHIS SHE WILL LOOK WORSE THAN THE MAKE UP SHE HAS ON

24. Photo is NOT Rihanna and this is how you can tell:
Put your mouse on the bottom of the battered woman's right earlobe and drag the pointer across her face. You'll see the pointer ends up across the top of her nose. Do the same thing with the actual picture of Rhianna and you'll see her earlobe meets the top of her lips. Peoples earlobes don't move, therefore it isn't Rihanna. Easy to spot TMZ, so why didn't you catch it? Oh, that's right, sensationalism without journalism!

25. I was shocked that these photos were leaked...and I was upset that you guys used them without her permission...BUT the folks above-alicia and bling, make a very good point. Maybe this will shake people up out of their complacecny and denial.

26. TMZ is so bad but you are ALL looking at the pictures. They are just giving you what you want to see!

27. Bad news. But, while you're at it, TMZ, look back in your files right after the altercation. Get some close-ups of his hands - don't they show some evidence of some kind?

28. Now the split lip could have come from that big herpes blister on her lips. You know herpes crack the skin and scab over. She is nasty

29. Shame on you TMZ--and ANYONE who shows this photo---respect this woman's privacy--isn't it bad enough she was beaten--it is a humiliating experience---and traumatic---to go through--and then to have the result of the abuse posted all over the place. TMZ just wants the publicity---how do you guys sleep at night?!
