New York, Feb 18 : R&B singer Rihanna, who suffered a bloody nose, swollen lip and facial bruising in an alleged bust-up with Chris Brown, still loves him, if her friend is to be believed.

Brown, 19, was arrested on the night of Grammys on suspicion of assaulting the `Umbrella' hitmaker and was released on
50,000-dollars bail.

However, Rihanna is `torn' over her parents'' pleas to cooperate with police after she was allegedly assaulted by Brown.

"I mean, damn, her eye''s black and the sides of her face are all f----d up. But she keeps saying she still loves him," the New York Daily News quoted a friend, as telling the Us Weekly magazine.

Rihanna''s parents are reportedly pleading with her not to worry about how jail time might affect Brown''s career. (ANI)
