Are Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez The New Rihanna & Chris Brown

At age 17, most kids are trying to figure out what dress to wear to the prom and who to invite to their graduation. Justin Bieber, however, is a few years ahead of most 17 year olds, spending the past week on a romantic vacation in Hawaii with his girlfriend Selena Gomez.
That’s a grown man, Jason Lyric type grip he has on Selena right there.
Which leads me to ask, Are they the new Rihanna and Chris Brown (before it went downhill)?  When Chris hooked up with Rihanna, he was 18, she was  19 and they became the new teenage Hollywood “It” couple.  Chris had a few #1 songs under his belt, Rihanna as well.  Suddenly we were bombarded with paparazzi photos of the two accompanying each other around the globe, their matching tattoos and romps on the beach photos.  Rihanna and Chris didn’t openly confess their love for each other in public, as Justin (17) and Selena (18), but everyone knew what was up.
The only concern for this young love played out in public is the unnecessary pressure from the paparazzi and press but other than that, teenage love is adorable.
