Music producer The-Dream has lept to the defense of Rihanna after her controversial decision to work with ex-boyfriend Chris Brown. Brown was sentenced to five years probation and six months of community service after attacking Rihanna at the 2009 Grammy awards.
The-Dream said: "It was Rih's idea," he said. "Not only do we work together, but [she] is a friend of mine. And it's like, 'You wanna do something? Then cool, let's do it.' I don't know how she got the logistics and how it happened. Maybe she'll talk about it one day."
On February 10th a US judge rejected Brown's please to have his probation term ended early.
