It's not easy being Britney -- just ask Rihanna.
The media frenzy that swirled around the singer right after she was viciously beaten by then-boyfriend Chris Brown left her feeling like the beleaguered pop tart.
"I felt like I went to sleep as Rihanna and woke up as Britney Spears," the singer told Glamour magazine. "That was the level of media chaos that happened the next day. It was like, what, there are helicopters circling my house? There are 100 people in my cul-de-sac? What do you mean I can't go back home?"
The 21-year-old beauty said the "positive thing" to come out of her experience that February night is that she's able to send a message to young women."Domestic violence is a big secret. No kid goes around and lets people know their parents fight. Teenage girls can't tell their parents that their boyfriend beat them up," she told the magazine.
"It's one of the things we [women] will hide, because it's embarrassing. My story was broadcast all over the world for people to see, and they have followed every step of my recovery. The positive thing that has come out of my situation is that people can learn from that," Rihanna said.
She said that her friends and family were supportive. "But at some point, you are there alone. It's a lonely place to be -- no one can understand. That's when you get close to God."
Rihanna also called it a "humiliating" slap when a photo of her battered face was leaked. "I felt completely taken advantage of," she told Glamour. "I felt like people were making it into a fun topic on the Internet, and it's my life."
