I'll start by saying that I'm the biggest Chris 'Breezy' Brown fan, however I don't ever give a pass to poor behavior. Yes we've all been 22 years old before, and while most of us aren't living our life under a microscope. If you are a entertainer, press and paparazzi comes with the territory. Whether you signed up to be a role model or not, your position is a privilege and not a right. The Chris Brown/Rihanna incident happened two years ago, and it's something that will never go away, it happened and the aftermath continues. Chris took anger management courses and got rave reviews, so I'm more than a little puzzled of his reactions to GMA's host Robin Roberts who inquired about the Rihanna incident.
Brown needs to address this situation head on, I don't feel that he's ever gotten the support that he's needed, a weak role model in his mother, and an even weaker management representation team. Whenever you interview on any media show, you have a set list of questions presented to you beforehand, that you agree to discuss and it's up to your management team to ensure that your interview comes across proper, MOST especially if you're trying to do damage control. Robin Roberts was there to do a job and as her journalistic duty is to get down to the bottom line and asked the questions that America wants to hear, and I think it was a personal gain for her too, she's trying to break out of Barbara Walters and Diane Sawyer shadows to become her own brand, and like Whitney Houston gave life to Wendy Williams, I think that Chris Brown just did the same thing for Robin Roberts.
I will always be a fan, but Chris you've got some growing up to do, and the bigger question is do you really want this industry life and are you open to redemption? Remember if you want FAME, well FAME costs, and sometimes its your soul that suffers. You must own your actions and it starts with admittance, and lastly GET YOURSELF A NEW GROUP OF PEOPLE TO MANAGE and GUIDE YOUR CAREER, yesterday was career sabotage.
Kevin, wow you're GROWING, you actually admitted that your boy did something wrong. I was starting to think of you as more of a IKE fan than Tina, remember abuse is not the way to go.

Chris is really screwing up. I totally agree with you, and it's sad because his CD is AWESOME, but he just screwed up his sales base.

totally true Kevin. This is good stuff. maybe you should manage Chris career. He needs to get his shit together or his career is over.
ReplyDeleteyour views still seem somewhat flawed, Robin Roberts gave him a pass for his poor behavior, she shouldve had ABC press charges against and violated his parole. I dont think that he's shown any remorse, so it appears that you and others are still rewarding him for violence. Chris needs to get it together and enroll in a real anger management program.
