TV question angers Brown
Singer Chris Brown trashed his dressing room and broke a window with a chair after being asked on a US TV show about his attack on Rihanna.
Brown was on 'Good Morning America' today to promote his new album, “F.A.M.E.”.
During his interview with co-host Robin Roberts, she asked him about the 2009 attack on his then-girlfriend Rihanna.
An agitated Brown tried to deflect the questions and said: “I’m past that in my life.”
During the interview Roberts preceded her questions by noting he had been “very good” about talking about the attack.
“It was very serious what you went through and what happened,” she said. “How have you been able to ...”
A clearly agitated Brown tried to deflect the line of questioning, saying he was past that and wanted to focus on his new CD.
“This album is what I want them to talk about and not what happened two years ago,” he said.
Roberts laughed and thanked Brown for letting her discuss that matter with him, and after the interview, Brown performed.
But instead of performing another song for the online audience, as he was scheduled to do, he went to his dressing room and started smashing things, according to an insider.
After the incident Brown took to his twitter account to write: "I'm so over people bringing this past s**t up!!! Yet we praise Charlie sheen and other celebs for there bulls**t."
He immediately removed the post.
He later added: "All my fans!!! This album is for you and only you!!! I'm so tired of everyone else!! Honestly!! I love team breezy!!"
In a statement, ABC News said: “As always, we ask questions that are relevant and newsworthy, and that’s what we did in this interview with Mr Brown.”
Brown has been trying to rehabilitate his image since the attack on Rihanna, which occurred on the eve of the Grammys two years ago. After that, his once brilliant career was tarnished. His album “Graffiti,” released several months after that, was a poor seller.
However, he has recently had success on the charts and has been more accepted into the mainstream as well.
He is on probation for his assault on Rihanna.
