Rihanna on '20/20' Huge Ratings Winner: Appearance gives ABC news program a season high.

*Rihanna's "20/20" interview about the night she was beaten by ex-boyfriend Chris Brown has given the ABC news program a ratings win for Friday night and a record for the season.

Diane Sawyer's exclusive interview with the singer drew 8.2 million viewers among adults 18-49. It also drew the show's best 18-34 number in three years.

That was enough for ABC to tie usual Friday winner CBS in the adult demo, though CBS still won among total viewers.

Sammy Sosa Is Now White? (Photos)

*Of all the people you might have expected to have “racial” identity problems, former Major League baseball player Sammy Sosa never came to mind.

Some people really have issues with their skin pigmentation. Either they’re too light or too dark. But, when you see the Hispanic/Latino baseball players interviewed, they normally show a lot of pride in their country.

The pictures of Sammy Sosa from last week juxtaposed with photos from May 13, show a remarkable difference in skin tone.

It’s as if he used whatever Michael Jackson used for his “vitiligo” problem. The only difference is that Michael Jackson’s transformation happened over a period of years. Sosa’s seems to have taken place in a matter of months

Whatever the issue is, racial or illness, he’s going to have to make some kind of statement soon. The media won’t let up on this.

Click over and check out the remarkable and kinda weird looking transformation.

Rihanna Says 'F Love' on GMA: Singer speaks candidly about her beating by Chris Brown. (Video)

*Tastefully dressed and looking like she was on the verge of tears, on "Good Morning America" this morning, Rihanna said she decided she had to call off her relationship with Chris Brown after realizing the message she sent to her fans by going back to him after he assaulted her.

“When I realized that my selfish decision for love could result into some young girl getting killed, I could not be easy with that part,” she told ABC’s Diane Sawyer. “I couldn’t be held responsible for telling them, ‘Go back.’ Even if Chris never hit me again, who’s to say that their boyfriend won’t? Who’s to say they won’t kill these girls?”

In part one of an exclusive interview with ABC, Rihanna also told Sawyer that she was ashamed that she went back to Brown after he hurt her.

“I fell in love with that person; that’s embarrassing,” she said. “So far in love, so unconditional that I went back.”

“That’s not what I want to teach people,” she added. “But I’m a human being, and people put me on a very unrealistic pedestal. All these expectations – I’m not perfect.”

Yes, she definitely uses the "F" word when referring to love. Click over to watch and get the rest of the story.
