i forgot that it was her birthday - i hope that where ever she is right now - she's having a good time with people who love and care about her. i wouldn't have put it past Jay-z to throw her a party since she's not having the one that she had originally planned

Happy Birthday Rihanna!!!!!!!! Stay strong sweetie.

Thanks Popsugar for not linking or showing the photo. It's awful.

That picture makes me hate Chris Brown even more... poor girl...

Happy Birthday - you're still beautiful and my fellow Bajan

Thank you for not posting that awful picture of her, that's very classy. It's hard to believe the early pictures of Rihanna, that long hair and generic look. I like her current look much better!

That photo was horrible! I'm sad I gave into temptation and looked at it, I wish I could've stayed strong and left it alone. I hope despite everything she still has a good birthday!

Like others have said..thanks for not posting the pic.

TMZ is disgusting for leaving that picture on top of anything they post. Horrible.

happy b-day Ri..

Thank you Pop for choosing not to post it. I wish I hadn't clicked on the link on another site...

Very decent of you not to post the picture.

I'm glad you didn't post those pictures.Happy Birthday Rihanna.

I too must offer thanks and a pat on the back for not posting the picture.

Happy Birthday Rihanna.

It shows a lot of class that the picture wasn't posted here. This is consistently my favorite site to visit - that has become one of the reasons. It's disgusting that it has leaked to the web.

While I respect her privacy, the picture being published, makes him look 100 times worse now, because everyone finally knows what exactly he did, which is a good thing!!! Hopefully also some supporters of his will finally shut it.

I say post the photo so that her fans can see what that derange, nasty, psychotic creep did to her. Not showing it kinda makes me think they're sweeping it under the rug not "classy"

banzai i have it posted on my page if you want to look at it, it is disgusting

Oh Pop why did you even tell me about the picture. I don't visit TMZ, I wouldn't have ever saw it. She looked so bad .

Thanks for not posting it.

I wonder what she's gonna do with all those matching tattoos she got with Chris Brown...I'd imagine she's gonna have them lasered off.

Like many of the comments above, Pop, thank you for not posting that terrible picture. You are a class act! I wish her all the healing and happiness on her birthday and pray she is doing better.

I am glad you didn't post the picture, but on the flip-side I think it's good it's out so there is no more speculation that Chris Brown sucks at life.

Thank you for not posting the picture of Rihanna. Her right to privacy has been unbelievably violated and you not posting/linking to it is the right thing to do. Another reason why I visit your site everyday! I pray for healing and peace for every victim of domestic violence.

Happy Birthday, girl!!! Best wishes to her!!
I also agree about not showing the photo. It was hard for me to look at. Very, very sad.

Thank you thank you thank you for not posting that picture. Her privacy was violated. The only good thing that came out of it is that most people can get over the disbelief and will stop blaming her for this. Happy Birthday Rihanna, we're all rooting for you.

Happy birthday Rihanna. Hope you forget about Chris and turn over a new leaf

Thank you pop for not posting the picture.

Thanks for not posting it, sincerely. Thats why I love Popsugar.

Happy Birthday Rihanna
Stay strong!
and thanks Pop for not posting the picture!

Thank you for not posting the photo! I'm very glad you didn't

I wish the best to Rihanna, she deserves! I didn't know she was so young, I hope today is the start of that great life she has the potential of having.

I wonder if people will still try to defend Chris Brown after seeing that picture. And yes, I agree it's nice not to post the picture here, her privacy was violated but like others said, if anyone thought it was "just a slap" now they can actually see what happened.

I'm really happy Popsugar decided not to show the picture, and instead to wish Rihanna a happy birthday! She def deserves it and hopefully it'll be a year withOUT drama for her!

That's why I prefer Popsugar over other sites, ones that will exploit anything just to get more viewers in. It's disgusting-like Perez Hilton is supposedly Rihanna's friend and he posted that horribly sad picture up, disgusting.

Happy Birthday Rihanna! hope she is feeling better today

Thank you for having some respect for the girl and not posting the pic. Best wishes to her.

Happy Birthday Rihanna!

Thanks for not showing that very sad photo and thanks also for not showing CB either. Class act, like Rihanna!

Hold your head high Rihanna - you have nothing to be ashamed of.

Banzai how can you say that?
I can't even count how many sites have the picture up full frontal (some have even done close-ups) yet one site shows some class and you call it "sweeping it under the rug".
For those who choose to see it will...sheesh.

Im surprised Perez showed it when in the past he's passed on not showing certain things.
Then again im sure he did it to get people to look at his site!

Happy Birthday Rihanna!

Lots of love for Ri-ri for her Birthday...and Chris can take a flying leap.

I am really glad the Sugar network made the decision not to post/link to the photo that leaked. Very admirable. Her pain should not be our entertainment, and to post that photo (that was undoubtedly obtained illegally) would be to victimize her twice.

I feel like celebrities look so much older than I do... I'm 20 but I swear I look 16... 12 if you compare me to celebs... maybe its the wardrobe and make up ... anyway... I'm glad she made it 21 b/c in some domestic violence cases some ppl aren't so lucky! God bless her!

Happy belated birthday, gal!

I've just realized we were born on the same day :-)just Rihanna a year earlier.great.I love her and am sure she will be even more fantastic.

Happy birthday, Rihanna!

Happyyyy happy birthday!

very faboulos legs gal
