AceShowbiz - Music mogul Jay-Z had nothing, but words of support for his protege Rihanna when he talked to People during his appearance at the "Sprite Green presents the Third Annual Two Kings dinner with Jay-Z and LeBron James" in Phoenix on Saturday, February 14. "This is a real situation," so he commented about Rihanna becoming the victim of alleged attack by her boyfriend Chris Brown.
"You have to have compassion for others. Just imagine it being your sister or mom and then think about how we should talk about that," the hip-hop singer continued saying during the event, held as part of the NBA All-Star Weekend. "I just think we should all support her. She's going through a tough time. You have to realize she's a young girl, as well. She's very young."
Asked if he has seen Rihanna after reports of her alleged altercation with Chris made their way all over the web, Jay-Z simply stated, "I don't want to go into it."
Last week report emerged, claiming Jay-Z was mad after hearing news that Rihanna was beaten by Chris Brown during a heated argument. "He hit the roof" when he first found out about it, a source close to Jay-Z has been cited as saying.
Meanwhile, Rihanna herself has not yet spoken up about what is really going on between her and Chris. She offers no single word to their blow-up and, as confirmed by her father, she has been spending time with her girl friends.
