Rihanna “Shocked” By Chris Brown’s Apology Video?
According to rumors, Rihanna is supposedly shocked by Chris Brown’s public video apology after he beat her to the point of needing hospitalization in February. Sources say that Rihanna wasn’t too happy about him addressing it so publicly.
An insider reportedly tells Now magazine,
“She’s in total shock. It was like he gave her another blow, albeit one of a different kind. All she knows is that it’s in the news again and that’s the one thing she didn’t want. She’s been trying to put it behind her and move on as fast as possible.”
The source continues,
“They spoke earlier last week and Chris made no mention of any public statement then. She wishes he’d given her at least a heads-up about it. But that’s Chris, always thinking of himself first and forgetting how this would impact on her.”
Furthermore, the insider says,
“In the video he says he’s apologized to Rihanna privately many times and that’s true. So we’re questioning what this video is really for. It’s clearly something he’s done for his public image. It’s convenient that he’s waited until his new album’s coming out.”

Rihanna’s Karaoke Night
R&B star Rihanna stunned party-goers in New York on Saturday night (25July) with a surprise performance – taking to the stage at a karaoke bar.
The Umbrella hitmaker was enjoying an evening out with friends at Manhattan’s Shanghai Square when they decided to hit the venue’s ‘Karaoke Cave’.
And the crowd was delighted when the star took the mic and spent several hours belting out her favorite tunes.
An onlooker tells RadarOnline.com,
“She came with about six friends and joined about eight more friends who were already there. She didn’t want to be in a private room – she was in the main lounge with everyone else.”
“Rihanna sang along for about 10 songs. She requested Misery Business by Paramore and Bust Your Windows by Jazmine Sullivan. She also sang along with friends to Livin on a Prayer by Bon Jovi and Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood. Anytime anyone wanted to request a Rihanna song she said no!”
“There are three mics in the lounge and Rihanna was holding one of them and singing with everyone during the songs. She was very gracious to everyone.”

RUMOUR – Chris Brown and Rihanna Reunite?
UPDATE - Brown, under court order to avoid his ex-gal pal, checked out less than two days after both singers ended up in separate rooms of the Trump International Hotel & Tower on Columbus Circle. He split because of the paparazzi stalking the building, a source told The Post.
Rihanna’s rep confirmed the pretty songstress and Brown were at the same hotel, but insisted they never saw each other.
“It was just a coincidence. She has stayed there before,” said publicist Amanda Silverman, adding that her client had no worries about Brown being in the same hotel.
Last night, The Post spotted Brown, 20, leaving the hotel for Harlem, where he ducked into a building at 135th Street and Amsterdam Avenue.
A childhood friend whom Brown regularly visits lives there, said a barber who works in the building.
Rihanna’s car sped away around 10 p.m. last night, sources at the hotel said.
About an hour later, Brown returned from Harlem and checked out of the luxury digs. A member of his entourage told The Post it was because “she [Rihanna] checked in.”
At about 7 p.m. Friday night, Brown was seen leaving the hotel to go to the movies with friends, witnesses said.
Two hours later, Rihanna, 21, and at least seven friends left for the tony Philippe restaurant on East 60th Street, sources at the eatery said.
Just days after Chris Brown publicly apologized for his February beating of then-girlfriend Rihanna, the two spent the weekend at the same luxury Midtown hotel under a cloak of secrecy, The Post has learned.
The pretty “Umbrella” singer and “Run It” crooner — who is barred from seeing his former squeeze by a restraining order issued in Los Angeles — checked into separate rooms at the Trump International Hotel & Tower on Friday, hotel sources said.
They spent the next two days coming and going in separate chauffeured vehicles from the underground garage of the 52-story Columbus Circle building.
The two appear to have taken great measures to avoid public exposure, including the use of decoy vehicles to throw off reporters and photographers. As of last night, the secretive performers hadn’t been seen together.
