The very first interview with Rihanna about Chris Brown's assault from February is coming to TV, and it'll be on ABC. Good; we'd hate to see that kind of salaciousness on Fox.

The network says the pop star's one-on-one with Diane Sawyer will air Thursday on Good Morning America and Friday evening on 20/20, the AP reports. We can only hope it doesn't include a performance of Russian Roulette, but we're not holding our breath.

Brown is back in the spotlight with a new single and a new album coming out, which he somehow had time to do after being sentenced to five  years' probation, six months of community labor and a year of domestic violence counseling after he pleaded guilty to felony assault in August. Something tells us this isn't the kind of publicity he wants right now.
