Rihanna sat down with Diane Sawyer for an interview that aired on Good Morning America (GMA) this morning (November 5). Rihanna reveals she was ashamed after the incident.

No he DIDN’T try to step to Mama Oprah like that!

Today is sentencing day for singer Chris Brown as he returns to a California court room to be sentenced for his assault on Rihanna back in February 2009. This past June, Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault. Today, he will be formally sentenced to 5 years probation and ordered to complete 180 days, or more than 1,400 hours of community labor and 52 weeks of domestic violence counseling.  Rihanna will not be present in court today, however, her lawyer Donald Etra will be present on her behalf.
