Rihanna and Chris Brown are both scheduled to perform on the 54th annual Grammy Awards this Sunday. This will be the first time the pop stars attend the prestigious award ceremony together since Brown violently assaulted Rihanna three years ago today. Over the past few months there have been rumors that the pop stars have been secretly seeing each other, which might lead some people to ask, what if Rihanna and Chris Brown got back together? Would it kill their careers?
After the February 8, 2009 incident, Brown was charged with two felonies and sentenced to five years probation and six months of community service.
During an exclusive interview in November 2009 for 20/20 with Diane Sawyer, Rihanna was candid about her turbulent romance with Brown. "He was definitely my first big love," she told Sawyer. "The more in love we became, the more dangerous we became for each other.The thing that men don't realize, when they hit a woman, it's...the face, the broken arm, the black eye, it's going to heal. That's not...the problem. It's the scar inside."
When asked if she would ever reunite with Brown, Rihanna said, "I can't answer that question right now, 'cause you never know what the future holds. I don't have a desire at all to be with him. I don't see how we could get back together. But I'm not God, so I can't predict the future."
In February, 2011, a court order that prevented Brown and Rihanna from coming into close contact was lifted, allowing Brown to speak to Rihanna without "harassing or annoying her."
In a 2011 interview with Rolling Stone, Rihanna defended her decision to lift her restraining order against Brown, "I just didn't want to make it more difficult for him professionally. What he did was a personal thing -- it had nothing to do with his career. Saying he has to be a hundred feet away from me, he can't perform at awards shows -- that definitely made it difficult for him."
That Spring, Rihanna and Brown reconnected on Twitter. Their Twitter reunion sparked plenty of Internet chatter and some insisted that the former lovers were sending coded messages to each other through their public tweets.
In January 2012 US Weekly reported that Rihanna and Chris Brown have been secretly dating and hooking up for nearly a year. "She comes to see him anytime she's in L.A." said a Brown Insider to US Weekly. And according to a music industry source, "they just can't get enough of each other."
