Music superstar opens up to Diane Sawyer about relationship with Chris Brown.
Nov. 2, 2009— -- In an exclusive interview, music superstar Rihanna sits down with Diane Sawyer revealing publicly for the first time what happened last February with singer and ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

"...This happened to me...it can happen to anyone," Rihanna said.
The interview is scheduled to air on "Good Morning America" on Thursday, Nov. 5 and Friday, Nov. 6 at 7 a.m. ET, and on "20/20" on Friday, Nov. 6 at 10 p.m. ET.
