Rihanna takes out restraining order against flight of stairs

When a police photo of a badly bruised Rihanna first surfaced three weeks ago, the allegation were that she was beaten by her boyfriend, the singer Chris Brown. Fans reacted with dismay and outrage. But now reports say the pop sensation has reportedly gotten back together with Brown.

“I want to make it clear that injuries on my face were from a fall I suffered on the flight of stairs in Chris Brown’s house,” says Rihanna. “I’ve had issues with those stairs in the past, and I’m taking action. I’ve taken out a restraining order against those stairs.”

Rihanna is also trying to make sure such an incident doesn’t happen again.

“I’m taking a course on how not to be so clumsy. Part of this is my fault,” added Rihanna.
