Chris Brown Documentary: Rihanna is Worried About Him After Film Revisits 2009 Assault

Chris Brown didn’t hold back while filming his new documentary, Welcome To My Life: The Official Chris Brown Documentary. And because of him being so open about what happened in his life, good and bad, Rihanna fears that this new film, which will revisit their violent night together in 2009, will have a negative impact on the "Turn Up The Music" singer.

“Chris told [Rihanna] he was considering doing a documentary and that he would be talking about that nightmare night,” a source told Hollywood Life. “At first she was surprised he wanted to go public with this. She cautioned him that he had to be mentally and emotionally prepared to go back and relive it. However, he reassured her that this was something good, something he wanted to do. She supported him, and still supports him.”

In the new trailer, fans will get the first taste of how the movie will explore the highs and lows of Brown’s life in the public eye over the last decade. It also touches a moment where Brown briefly addresses his infamous 2009 assault on Rihanna.

“I felt like a f*cking monster,” the “Back to Sleep” singer says, adding that he descended into drug use and a bout of depression in its aftermath.

The 26-year-old R&B singer said their relationship was "like a fantasy" but he felt like a monster afterwards. "I went from being on top of the world, number one songs and kind of being like America's sweetheart to being public enemy number one."

Brown also revealed that he considered suicide after the assault.

Hollywood Life previously reported that Rihanna wishes Brown was the man that he is today when they were dating. “Had Chris been the man he is now eight years ago, Ri would still be with him. It hasn’t always been easy for him to express his feelings publicly and she couldn’t be prouder of him with his documentary,” a source told the site. “Chris is working on himself and trying to be the best man and father he can.”
