As Rihanna goes house-hunting in the Hollywood hills and tells pals she's "moving on" with her life, the singer's ex Chris Brown continues to struggle with his predicament. The rapper's good friend Tyrese Gibson has spoken out about how Chris is doing, saying, "Although he appears to be really strong through all of this, it's really taking a toll on his spirit." He then goes on to say, "People like me and Combs [P Diddy to you and me], we're just trying to show him love and keep his spirits up while he's going through all of the heat. It's really hard for him to focus right now on his music, even though he really wants to." Neither Chris nor Rihanna has yet spoken out publicly about the alleged assault last month, but the witness accounts and the leaked photos of a bruised and battered Rihanna were enough to anger many people. Tyrese goes on to admit, "At the end of the day, I'm not trying to justify it because wrong is wrong, but unfortunately, us as entertainers, we have to grow up on stage with a lot of people looking at us. And a lot of people forget that he's 19, she's only 21." Meanwhile, Rihanna has been snapped looking more gorgeous than ever, and is also rumoured to be going on a second date with Lindsay Lohan's ex, Wilmer Valderrama. Good for her, we say!
