Chris Brown Pops Back Out for the First Time Since Rihanna Had Her “Oprah Moment”

Is he a tough guy?  Well, he’s trying to be one now.  Shortly after Rihanna went onto Oprah and stated her love for Chris Brown in public, Chris is starting to show up in celebrity photos again.  In this picture, Chris is hanging out with The Game on the West Coast.

Brown was in Compton with The Game on the set of a new visit for the single, “Celebration.”  The song also features Wiz Khalifa, Tyga and Lil’ Wayne.  The video was shot in Northridge, California.

“We’ve been working on our friendship again and now we’re very close friends,” Rihanna told Oprah. “And that’s not anything we’re going to try to change.”

Comedian Joan Rivers said that it was her turn to slap Rihanna for stating that she was still in love with Chris.  The couple was in the middle of controversy at one point for the blow up in their relationship.  Since that time, Chris’ career has repaired itself, and Rihanna is doing better than ever.  But some are still disappointed that an alleged role model for young women would publicly claim love for her abuser.

“My stomach drops and I have to maintain this poker face and not let it get to the outer part of me. I have to maintain it and suppress it,” Rihanna also said. “When you don’t understand those feelings you can make a lot of mistakes.”
