CHRIS BROWN: ‘TIGER DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE’


THE FACTS
Chris Brown offered his thoughts on the Tiger Woods controversy in a recent radio interview.

THE SPIN
When asked about Tiger Woods, Chris Brown told Mojo in the Morning: “My hat goes off to him. I support him. I hope he gets back on the field and does his thing because is the best at it.”

And more specifically, Chris thinks Tiger deserves a second chance.

As he explained:

“I think people always deserve a second chance. I know my fans gave me a second chance and people gave me a second chance. Whatever his personal life is—and I think this goes for me and him—his personal life is his personal life. Nobody has the right to place judgment or make any judgment on somebody else’s personal life when they’re not directly involved with them. He plays golf. That’s his sport, that’s his hobby, that’s his love, that’s what people love him for. They don’t love him for the other stuff that they talk about. Even with me, I do music, I sing songs, I’m an entertainer, I’m a performer. But people make mistakes. I think people have to realize that everybody’s human. The good thing is, if you learn from your mistakes, then that’s a part of life. I think that’s a part of living and learning from mistakes and becoming a better person and growing from situations.”

I agree with the overall sentiment, but this part gets me: “Nobody has the right to place judgment or make any judgment on somebody else’s personal life when they’re not directly involved with them.”

If this came from the mouth of Sade, I’d understand. She’s had some legal trouble in recent years and has been subject to rumors about certain things, but not many talk about it. Why? Because she never opens herself up in that way. She doesn’t offer audiences some goody goody image of herself that she uses as a means to become a celebrity endorser.

Tiger Woods showed off his family. Tiger Woods crafted this “perfect” image of himself, which he used to sell products for companies and serve as a role model to children. His personal behavior conflicted with the professional image he created to make money outside of golfing. Of course people are going to talk about it.

Same for Chris Brown. You can’t be a clean cut pop locker then pop someone in the mouth and expect folks to say, “Oh that’s your business.” Especially if we know who you hit.

Both deserve second chances, and I wish each man well, but is it me or do some celebrities want to have it both ways?

CHRIS BROWN WANTS TO BE A FASHION DESIGNER


THE FACTS
Chris Brown recently revealed his designer ambitions.

THE SPIN
Chris Brown has been looking quite dapper as he channels his inner Zoolander and makes his presence felt at fashion weeks across the globe.

But maybe he might be taking his kudos and congratulations a little too seriously because now he’s talking about being his own little Giorgio Armani.

Yes, Chris Brown would like to add “fashion designer” to his growing list of attributes.

Via AOL’s Stylist:

A more relaxed participant was Brown, who we caught chilling out before taking to the catwalk — in a sharp Dolce & Gabbana suit, no less — for the very first time.

“I’ve never walked the runway before, but we’ll see what happens,” he said. “I’ll just walk like me, normally. Not too gangster, just a strut.”

It seems Brown has been taking in New York Fashion Week, along with some international shows, with the end goal of creating his own line one day.

“I think I would start off doing female [designs], since my fanbase is mostly female,” he said. “Then I’d go into men’s. I wouldn’t attach my name to it, though, because I’d want it to be hot because people like it, not because it’s mine.”

As for the designers he looks up to for inspiration, Brown said, “Balenciaga has done some things for women that are really dope and even Alexander McQueen — he always brought the new innovative stuff for the females.”

So ladies, how many of you out there are looking forward to wearing Chris Brown’s designs for you?

CHRIS BROWN HAS A NEW GIRL?


THE FACTS

Chris Brown is said to be dating new female member of N.E.R.D.

THE SPIN
Monkey see, monkey do. Since we just saw flicks of Rihanna and her rumored new beau it only makes sense that Chris Brown’s camp pull the same stunt.

Chris kicked out the New Year in Miami and obviously made friends along the way.

The girl in question is Rhea, whom the blog Rhymes With Snitch reports is a singer who earned her spot in N.E.R.D. through an audition via Skype.

You can check her singing below, but let me warn you, the girl doesn’t seem to be the most honest.

Check out what song she claims she wrote:

Bless her non-gospel classic song writing heart.
