Oprah to Air Rihanna-Inspired Domestic Violence ShowNext ImageDedicates show to Rihannas of the world.On her show last Friday, Oprah (and friends) weighed in on the domestic violence incident between Rihanna and Chris Brown. Oprah and BFF Gayle King expressed concern that Rihanna was apparently willing to take Brown back so soon after the alleged (and reportedly very violent) assault. Oprah was so saddened by the situation she's decided to air a show dedicated to dating violence this week.Oprah did offer Rihanna some advice on her show on Friday, "Heal yourself first and also, love doesn't hurt." True dat, Opi, true dat.But the talk show queen, who has long spoken out on her show about the dangers of domestic violence, wants to go one step further. Thursday's episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show will air live from Chicago and will focus on the troubling topic.Winfrey said the show is "dedicated to all the Rihannas of the world," and will feature Tyra Banks (perhaps because of Tyra's previous experience interviewing Chris Brown about the topic of domestic violence).Hopefully, Oprah's show will remind viewers that violence is never OK and help other women stand up for themselves. Maybe someone will tape it for Rihanna.And hopefully between now and Thursday someone will have reminded Oprah how to pronounce Rihanna's name.>Gina L Gilbert
