Rihanna's dad: Leaked LAPD photo 'disturbing' and 'terrible'
Rihanna's father, Ronald Fenty, has seen the photo of his daughter -- with cuts and bruises on her forehead, lips and cheeks -- after the alleged assault by Chris Brown
Fenty calls the post-attack photo "terrible."
"Yeah, I saw it," Fenty told Usmagazine.com. "It's disturbing." And he hopes that people will now be able to "grasp the situation a lot better."
"It's good and it's bad to see the picture, because there's other people who were thinking differently, that [Rihanna's injuries] may not be that bad, just a little spank or a little thing."
But he's not thrilled about the police photo being leaked. "Sloppy work," he tells People.
Jeepers, is there anyone he's not talking to?
Los Angeles police have launched an internal investigation to determine who leaked the photo and, according to L.A. Now's Andrew Blankstein, actor Mel Gibson may even help!
Reports are that Rihanna's close friends took out a 21st birthday greeting for the singer in the local Barbados newspaper.
"Amidst all the negativity about Ri Ri, God will continue to bless her," it reads.
We second that.

lol the pic is disturbing because rihanna looks so damn ugly without makeup
To be honest the picture was not as bad as they described. It isnt that bad at all. Its bad because it should have never happened. But it life and this stuff happens. Eveyone is only making a big deal out of it because they are famous. My aunt and uncle use to go at it all of the time. Some people are just crazy. I remember when I was about ten on a family camping trip. My aunt was chasing my uncle around with a mashedy . I know i maynot have spelled that right but thats not the point my point is no one care then and if it was to happen now no one would care because they are not famous. they both have scares on each other from their past fights and thank god they arent together anymore because I am sure one of them would be dead more then likely my uncle cuz my aunt is crazy. what makes me up set about this situation. is that the parties involved are not saying anything because of the case but everyone around them are running their mouths. Its no ones business but theirs. and the law of course.
omg girl it is that big of a deal!!!just cause your family is a bunch of weird o's dont mean eveyone else is
