Rihanna was assaulted by boyfriend Chris Brown

Nine months after her fight with Chris Brown, Rihanna finally opens up about the night that left her bruised and bloody.

'This happened to me. ... It can happen to anyone,' the singer, 21, tells Diane Sawyer in an interview airing Thursday on Good Morning America and on 20/20 on Friday.   

Rihanna says it was particularly difficult because of the special place Brown held in her heart: 'He was definitely my first big love.'

  Both singers have worked to move on. Brown is serving his sentence and working on new music, his album Graffiti will drop Dec. 15; and Rihanna is shaking things up with her edgy fashion and releasing her fourth album Rated R on Nov. 23. The album's first single Russian Roulette debuted last week.
