Rihanna 'To Break Silence On TV'

Rihanna is expected to openly discuss the incident involving her former boyfriend Chris Brown for the first time on TV this week.

Ri has remained tight-lipped about the assault that occurred in February of this year, but will break her silence on two shows in the U.S. - first on Thursday's (Nov 5) Good Morning America, and then on ABC's 20/20 on Friday (Nov 6).

Rihanna will be making the appearances as she begins the promotion for her fourth album 'Rated R' (released at the end of the month).
