Rihanna's first television interview after Chris Brown's assault is the buzzer maker for this week. Rihanna was interviewed by '20 20' with Diane Sawyer and she revealed that she "felt ashamed to have been involved with Chris Brown in the first place." Rihanna revealed: "I was so far in love, so unconditional that I went back. It's humiliating to say this happened. To accept that? It's a traumatizing experience." Looking sad, and obviously hurt, Rihanna also added that she even stayed at Chris Brown's side even after she was beaten by him.

Rihanna continues: "But again ... I'm a human being, and people put me on a very unrealistic pedestal. And all these expectations, I'm not perfect. Also it's pretty natural for that to be the first reaction. ... It's completely normal to go back. You start lying to yourself. The minute the physical wounds go away you want this thing to go away. This is a memory you don't want to have ever again." (Photo Credit: Fame Pictures)
