The Chrihanna Chronicles: Will There be a Book?

Here's one for the books -- literally. Chris Brown and Rihanna are planning to co-author a book about abuse and go on a talk-show tour in an attempt to salvage his career. According to the Chicago Sun-Times, the title of their literary effort will be Project Mea Culpa.

A source was quoted as saying, "The only way Chris can possibly reverse things is to come clean and help raise awareness about abusive relationships. Obviously this is a public relations campaign, but it only will work if there's genuine healing, contrition and a path to preventing future problems."

Let's hope there really is some healing -- for both of them.

In other Chrihanna Chronicles news, E! Online reports that Rihanna filed a criminal protective order in Los Angeles Superior Court that will allow her to tape any future phone conversations she has with Chris. In fact, the paperwork that was put in on Thursday covers any communication made over the next three years, lasting until March 5th, 2012.

Brown, who has been charged with felony assault and making criminal threats, is due back in court on Monday, April 6th.
