R&B/Pop diva Rihanna just issued her first statement since being allegedly attacked by fellow chart-topping star and boyfriend Chris Brown..
In a release issued Friday, Rubenstein Associates says:
"At the request of the authorities, Rihanna is not commenting about the incident
involving Chris Brown. She
wants to assure her fans that she remains strong, is doing well, and deeply
appreciates the outpouring of support she has received during this difficult
time."
Rihanna's statement comes just hours after a photo of the singer was released on entertainment website TMZ.com showing the battered face of the pop star with bruises on her forehead, bloody lips and other facial marks.
The Los Angeles Police Department announced its investigation into the photo leak shortly after it was posted on TMZ.com and other entertainment sites late Thursday.
Rihanna also celebrated her 21st birthday today.

For most of you all to say that this beating is OK, is sad just within itself! We all have co-workers, arch-rivals, ex-lovers and haters that we wish bad upon because they "mouth off and harass us" routinely, but we know if something were to happen to them at our hands, we may have to pay the price! *This is not good for Chris Brown and his ill-advised publicist and legal team! We do not have to wait until the investigation is complete to use our common sense folks!*Whether you will continue to buy his records or not, something is wrong with his mental psyche and within his DNA to continuously and repeatedly land "blow after blow" on her face while not stopping himself! Most of you all still love the lamborghini-driving young man and can't get past the fake "good-boy image" that Jive/Zomba records "created" and has successfully made you all believe!
That's good she's ok. I hate that this happened because she's doing great things and will continue to successful, but Chris career hangs in the balance. But i'm happy she's recovering.
