On Friday, Chris Brown’s people staged these beach photos with his live-in girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, and some friends. (Karrueche is the one with the bleached hair.) His publicist was no doubt trying to underscore this planted story about how he can’t possibly be sleeping with Rihanna again since Karrueche has stayed with him for a few months and is buying his bullsh*t in exchange for a taste of the good life. Well Chris managed to screw up even this simple beach photo op by putting on his crazy face to scare away some seagulls. I’m sure small children in the area were frightened. This only serves to remind us of the reason so many people are against this abusive douche’s comeback.
One of Chris’ most vocal critics in the industry, country singer Miranda Lambert, continues to speak out against him. We’ve already heard that she tweeted after his Grammy win that she didn’t “get it. He beat on a girl.” After that Chris went crazy, as we’ve come to expect from him, and tweeted, in part “HATE ALL U WANT BECUZ I GOT A GRAMMY Now! That’s the ultimate F**K OFF!” He later deleted most of his Twitter feed and went silent for a short while, but he couldn’t keep it in for long. First off here’s the story about how Miranda held up a sign at a concert on Thursday that Chris Brown should take notes. This was right before she sang about a woman plotting to kill her abuser.
The music world’s most random feud rages on — with Miranda Lambert stepping up her game by blasting Chris Brown in concert!
The battle began earlier this week, after Miranda Lambert wondered on Twitter why the convicted felon was featured on not one but two performances during the Grammy Awards.
“Chris Brown twice? I don’t get it. He beat on a girl,” she tweeted, before adding “Not cool that we act like that didn’t happen. He needs to listen to Gunpowder and lead and be put back in his place. Not at the Grammys.”
“Gunpowder and Lead” is Miranda’s single about a woman preparing to kill her abusive husband — and as she got ready to sing the song last night at a UMass concert, she couldn’t help but slam Brown again.
Before singing, Lambert pulled a poster out of the audience reading “Take Notes Chris Brown.”
“Get a good picture now, put it on Twitter,” she said, while holding the poster up. “I’ve been in a world of hurt with Chris Brown fans lately … but see, I just have to speak my mind because where I come from beating up on a woman is never okay.”
As she launched into the song, Lambert added “So that’s why my daddy taught me early on in life how to use a shotgun.” The crowd went wild.

In response to this, because you know that Chris can’t hold his itchy fingers back from responding, he tweeted “Using my name to get publicity? I love it! Perform your heart out! Go buy @miranda_lambert album! So motivational and “PERFECT”!”
Yeah, it’s all about publicity for Miranda. She couldn’t possibly have a very valid point. I’ll just end with my favorite tweet response to Brown’s stupid comeback. “Yep, thank God you punched a woman around so she could use you for publicity, cuz, ya know, Miranda Lambert needs it and all…”
Look at how much bling he’s wearing to the beach.

I read on here that Miranda’s parents made their home into an abusive shelter kind of a thing. She’s seen this first hand. Great that someone is speaking up about this in the celebrity-world.
I’m with you, Miranda!
Agreed! Team Lambert!
Co-sign! Team Lambert!
Team Lambert and Team Seagull!
Co-sign Team Lambert.
I so admire the fact that she is one of the VERY few in the public eye, that is using her stardom to officially bring attention on an abuser. Haven’t seen Beyoncé, Swifty, MAdonna, and the rest do anything this courageous.
I think Miranda should show the same fervor and not have let her husband go on stage and pay tribute to Glenn Campbell. For Tanya Tuckers sake.
I would normally agree, but after the new Michelle Dugar thread, I’m all for husband and wife doing their separate thing as much as possible.
I’d rather Miranda have an absolutely separate identity and vocal-moral values than her husband. A woman standing on her own thing, if you will.
something tells me that he’s pulling this ‘angered punk asswipe’ act on purpose. He knew the camera’s were there, he knows he gets attention for making his rageface.
Gross.
he looks like a crazed, wild animal in these shots. He seems to be missing some very important genetic material. He really does frighten me.
I agree. He looks like a psychopath.
“He seems to be missing some very important genetic material. ”
Good one. Am going to try and use that in conversation this week 😉
he also seems to be missing his belt.
cannot WAIT until this fad dies. no, I do not want to see your nasty underwear.
what an a-hole
Co-sign.
Do you think it’s safe to swim with all that bling on? I mean, it could drown him or something…
*Big smile.*
Damn good point! Wouldn’t want the little douche to sink to the bottom!
Hope will never die.
I really don’t get his girlfriend..how can you even date a guy you know for sure he beated another woman and sent her to the hospital? she’s such a bad example for all the women out there.
He pays for everything. Just like for Michelle Duggar, the man of the house is her Lord and Master who knows best, and she should follow his every demand blindingly. It’s practice for a God-fearing marriage, like the Duggars.
*barfing*
Geez some chicks would do anything for some money….
Yes he is. Maintain the rage. Don’t buy his records, don’t pay to download his music. Maybe he’ll go away.
Who is Miranda Lambert
A cute country singer. That is now a cute but quite-vocal-for-women’s-rights country singer.
And she has a Grammy too.
Though I doubt those idiots of the Grammys will ever give her another one now that she dared to speak up against them honoring Chris Brown.
Can’t really take the Grammys serious after that.
Sign then the petition I had linked under 6, if you want to add your voice, and make a difference:)
Wearing socks on the beach. Why didn’t I think of that? Brilliant.
Good thing he’s wearing them. Otherwise, he’ll go on twitter and bitch about how he went to the beach and got sand in between his toes and he can never catch a break because the world is out to get him. Jackass.
I’m all abaord the Chris Brown is a raging douchebag train, but Socks seem like a good idea. I hate stepping on hot sand and burning the soles of my feet.
Marca, that’s hilarious!
Talk about the decay of civilization. I’m still appalled that the Grammy people want us all to embrace this sh-tass.
I don’t know if Celebitchy allows it, there is a site where you can go and sign a petition telling the Grammys that what they did WAS NOT OK…
Can I post the link?
So tentatively, without insulting the site’s owner, here is the link to sign a petition against Chris Brown and the Grammys for glamorizing an abusive d-ck:
http://www.change.org/petitions/the-grammys-apologize-to-domestic-violence-survivors
Signed it! Thanks for the link. 🙂
We need to get to 20,000!
Thanks ladies for signing it. Encourage your friends to do so as well.
The era for sitting back and doing nothing is quite over. The music industry may “forget”, but we the consumers can remind them!
Personally I don’t think he should ever be on a Grammy stage. In the real world they could have a least waited until he’d completed his CS sentence. He hasn’t even paid for his crime in legal terms and that’s why it’s even more insulting he was back on stage.
I hate this douche!
Hope those gulls crapped all over him.
Can’t stand Chris Brown. If Rhianna is really messing around with him in private and having anything to do with him professionally my respect for her as an artist will be less than zero.
I am no Chris Brown fan. But screw Miranda. It’s like she is putting a scarlet letter on him. Are people in life not allowed second chances and to get help and become a productive member of society? Go sit in your house, Chris, and never come out is her mentality.
And promoting violence herself, classy. I bet she goes to church every Sunday and prays to Jesus. Rhianna has forgiven him and wants him to have
a chance at his young career. I don’t even like him but think he deserves that.
He still seems to have anger issues. Time will tell if he has done what it takes through therapyand continuing in therapy to be a different person. But hedoesn’t need to be singled out by her and used by her for publicity for her music.
Why not? People still harp on Jolie for being with Bead Pitt. Chris Brown literally tried to eat Rihanna’s face off. I like that Miranda stands up to douchey dumb Abusers! Go Lambert
Team Lambert. I don’t even like country music but I’m going to buy her album now. Every time Chris Brown is on the radio, I change the channel. Probably won’t make a difference, but I’ll sleep better knowing I’m not supporting a woman beater. Rihanna’s opinion of Chris is irrelevant to me.
Ummm yeeeaaaahh… He kind of lost the right to a second chance when he spewed a venemous tweet after the grammy awards, then tried to use the pick-up line, “I promise I won’t beat you.”
I have put up the link for letting the Grammys and CB know how wrong they were in number 6.
Exactly, also support Miranda now.
And Usher also went up several notches by speaking out against him. Didn’t even know about that earlier and it’s crazy he had to apologize.
Why not? people still hate Jolie for being with Brad Pitt. Chris Brown tried to beat and eat Rihanna’s face off. I like when a woman stands up for victims. Instead of defending an Abusive Douche Baggy c*unt like him. Go Lambert!
And am I the only one that thinks Rhianna is even alive today because she managed to get out of the car? Otherwise I really think he would have beat her to death or shot her. He was that crazy with rage. And again, you don’t get the sense that he’s changed or learned anything. Except how to blame everyone else for his shortcomings. Classic abuser.
He almost choked her to death. He left the car. Probably because they were in a residential area and she was screaming. He most likely knew someone would be there soon. Frankly, I’m shocked he didn’t get charged with attempted murder. He choked her so much that she passed out at one point, there was a high probability that she wasn’t going to wake up again.
She doesn’t need publicity. She’s just calling a punk, a punk.
well said, Team 🙂 Miranda does NOT need any help in her musical career. she is a mainstay in country music.
oh….and a totally cute hubby 😉
Why is the fact Rihanna’s ‘forgiven’ him some kind of selling point?
Honestly the fact she has forgiven him so quickly seems more like proof of her own flimsy mental state regarding her abuser. If you abuse the average woman in the way Chris Brown did it’d take her a good couple of years to come close to not seething with anger and hatred.
Rihanna is a battered woman mentally far more than physically.
definitely exactly. He has NEVER displayed any remorse. And Rihanna’s now got a giant fish to fry of her own, so her current opinion in the matter is only due to her broken psychological state.
@Riana, well said!
Yep. Exactly. He does not get props for her allowing him to get close again. If anything, that’s more dangerous. He is an evil, violent creature.
Because Jayna, people aren’t just upset that he made a stupid mistake and beat the shit out of his girlfriend. People are angry because he is in no way sorry about it. He refuses to show any humility about it, and we now know that the beating was not a one-time thing. He wanted everyone to just forget it ever happened and let him move on. We could have if he had handled it right, but he hasn’t; and he won’t.
He is very arrogant about the entire incident and refuses to acknowledge that he did something horrid and that he has an ongoing problem. This is evident by his temper tantrums every time an earnest questions is asked of him.
For this reason, I think he is an ass and I refuse to patronize him and I’m very disappointed in those who would.
Perfect comment. He’s shown no signs that he’s changed. In fact, he’s gone on several anger binges, like the incident at the Today Show (or was it GMA?) where he trashed the dressing room and threw a chair through the window.
If he actually seemed to be trying to change and get help for being a dickhead, that would be one thing. But he seems perfectly content with his violent temper.
Yes! exactly!
Very well said. I completely agree.
@Jayna…I understand that you are reluctant to hop on the “hate Chris B. train,” ok? I totally understand…but..why oh why are you talking about “second chances” w/regards to this asswipe?
Chris B. has had 2nd & 3rd chances & has Sh%# all over them. Does the incident at GMA not come to your mind when CHRIS THREW A CHAIR OUT OF A WINDOW THAT FELL BELOW TO THE GROUND, PUTTING PEOPLE IN HIS DRESSING ROOM IN DANGER, NOT TO MENTION THE PEOPLE ON THE STREET BELOW IN DANGER. I’m sorry…were you not aware of these incidents AND MORE since he beat the crap out of Rihanna?
Second, third, fourth chances? I THINK NOT!
Good for you Miranda!
I love to see a strong woman stand up for what she believes in. Go, Miranda!!
It would be one thing if he demonstrated even a morsel of regret and we got the sense that he learned a valuable lesson. But he is clearly in the Lohan School of Denial; he didn’t do anything wrong – it’s all the H8RS fault. Douche.
Well we all know how seagulls are attracted to crap.
I wish there was a “Like” button for your comment, Riana!!
@Riana LMAO That was one of the best and to the point posts about this piece of sh*t person in regards to this story. 🙂 Thank you
Best comment!
More than like, LOVE!!
Remember when he broke the window at an interview because they made him mad? That proved to me he has serious anger issues that never went away. Go Miranda for not giving in
These photos look incredibly fake. I know they were set up to look like genuine candids, but there’s a forced quality about them that makes them seem extra, extra douchy. It’s like Brown is shouting “Look at me having wholesome fun! No, really, this is what I normally do.”
He looks about as natural in these photos as Courtney Stodden does in hers. And what’s up with the mouth-wide-open rictus gape? Am I supposed to mistake that for excitement?
I agree with her about Chris Brown. He’s awful.
BUT-she’s clearly ignoring other people in her own industry that have done the same stuff. Her husband sang with Glen Campbell for christ’s sake. Yes, we’re supposed to feel bad now that he has Alzheimers, but as others have said he abused his wife Tammy Tucker for years. He hit someone with his car when extremely drunk a few years back. I know her family has worked with abuse victims, and so I don’t get it.
I feel like she’s trying to pull a Swifty v. Kanye kind of event.
That happened long ago, was tragic, her name’s Tonya, and he has displayed immense remorse for what he’s done and it has become a lesson. With Underpants Bitch Boy? Not.
Underpants Bitch Boy… Ha… That is funny. I like it. I shall always refer to him at UBB, Underpants Bitch Boy.
🙂
Glen has never displayed remorse. He has outright denied that he ever beat Tanya, though many people who were around him said he did.
Actually, it’s Tanya lol.
@scal, good point. I suppose she’s using Chris as an example and doesn’t want to kick Glenn Campbell when he’s down, so to speak. It would probably look pretty insensitive if she were to go after someone with Alzheimer’s and I’m sure it would overshadow her message. There’s also the very real possibility that she knew nothing of Campbell’s past abuse. I’m 31, and had no idea of his past abuse issues. So, at 28, I’m guessing she may not have either.
Which hypocritical message? Tired of the double standards. She clapped when Campbell got his award.
Does anyone else find it weird that Chris’ live in girlfriend has bleached hair and now so does Rianna (sp?)? Even if the live in peice is bearding for Chris and Ri’s relationship it has a whiff of insecurity. No?
Yes I do think she’s just competing with his other girlfriend, R’s bored and wants to stir up some sh*t. There is a huge catfight on the horizon and R is going to do some really stupid stuff very soon.
The ONLY reason the industry is still promoting him is because there are still morons out there like this: http://www.buzzfeed.com/mjs538/horrible-reactions-to-chris-brown-at-the-grammys that apparently think what he did was “cute” and is just an attention whore themselves and would be one of the skanks that would be lining up to visit him in prison.
any girl/woman who becomes involved with this abuser needs to see a shrink, asap.
good for this miranda person. i don’t know who she is, but glad someone is willing to speak loudly about this creep.
Team Miranda all the way!!! It’s like someone else said if he had really shown remorse for what he did and not acted like it never happened then everyone would have probably moved on past it but no. He’s an arrogant ass that acts like he is Gods gift to the world. I still cannot believe that be performed with Pitbull on a Spanish Awards show. So disappointed.
Has Miiranda addressed why she supported the Glen Campbell grammy tribute? Where were all the disgusted tweets about Glen Campbell?
THANK YOU! this is the only reason i feel bad for CB, he gets so much shit while other people that have done it are forgiven and allowed to move on.
I’m sorry and i know posters here probably think i’m sticking up for him and in a way i am, not for what he did to Rihanna but for the way he’s being treated as opposed to other male celebs that have beat on Women.
Miranda Lambert may have a valid point but it’s pretty obvious that she’s milking this for publicity, If she felt that strongly why hasn’t she said anything about her STOLEN husband Blake Shelton honouring a singer that knocked his wife’s front teeth out at that very same Grammy ceremony?! that is hypocricy to me.
P.S The Grammy’s award MUSIC not personal conduct otherwise Amy Winehouse, James Brown, Eminem, Whitney Houston etc would never have gotten an award.
P.P.S To the people saying he’s never shown any remorse, He’s obviously shown enough remorse privately to Rihanna… you know, the actual victim to forgive him and if he hasn’t shown remorse to the PUBLIC is that even necissary, especially when they take any opportunity to throw it in his face…
Oh come on….comparing him to Whitney, Amy, Eminem…..self-destructive behaviour is one thing, so is getting in the odd scrap with someone who can defend themselves. It’s quite different from beating the shit out of and choking defenseless woman until she’s bleeding from the mouth and ears and passed out. Give me a break.
The only admission of guilt by him is when he plead guilty…and any “private” remorse you claim he has allegedly showed Rihanna would be in the “baby I swear I’ll never do it again, I love you but why do you have to make me so mad” category.
I don’t understand people who feel compelled to be Chris Brown apologists. He has shown no remorse and I really wish he had been charged with destruction of property or vandalism or something for the GMA incident because it was a violation of his probation.
Obviously Rihanna would not speak out against him – they’re in the same industry and domestic abuse is a divisive issue….a lot of people in their industry think it’s an OK thing to do and not that big of a deal. Obviously she doesn’t want to be the one to get in the middle of an ideological battle not of her choosing…she’s just trying to live her life and quite frankly does not seem that intelligent or strong enough to fight a losing battle.
Let’s face it. At a base level, society hates women. If Rihanna stood up to Chris in the media, she would not win.
The point i was making was that if you’re not going to give an award to someone who beat a woman like Chris did then why give one to annother man that has beat a woman like Eminem or Glen Campbell, or why draw the line there why not exclude EX drug users or better yet why not just give all the awards to Taylor Swift.
I’m not a Chris Brown opologist my any means, I hate what he did to Rihanna and i don’t think anybody should ever forget it BUT i do believe in forgiveness. Whatever Chris said to Rihanna she has forgiven him now and to say that she just accepted a load of BS and is ready to take annother beating is really disgusting, Maybe Chris has learned his lesson but why he’s supposed to make some grovelling appology to THE PUBLIC i have no idea, it was Rihanna he beat not any of us and as far as i know 3 years later he hasn’t beat anybody else.
As for saying Rihanna didn’t stand against him because she would have lost that is complete BS, after this happened Rihanna was the darling of the media and could do no wrong while CB was most hated and his album flopped into hell.
Yeah, she would have lost. The last week’s media frenzy is actually all about famous/rich men not liking criticism and basically saying ‘fuck all women, we do what we want’.
The Grammys chose to honor him. Some Grammy high up idiot even said the Grammys were the real victims of this.
Had Rihanna not been famous and had the pics not been all over the media, people would not even have believed her.
Now Rihanna and even Chris Brown in a way have been caught in the backlash. Of course CB is not making it any better by the way he reacts.
I do agree that more famous men should suffer. Some have actually, like Mel Gibson. And it’s unfair to say that people at this website at least have not talked smack equally about Charlie Sheen, Polanski etc.
Other celebrities haven’t at all, like Sean Connery. It’s time for women to not support any of their work any more, so that any studio will lose money hiring them.
Only then will high-up sh-theads like those Grammy morons think twice before honoring abusers.
That’s not a definite thing though. Rihanna is a mess to begin with. But I know there are a lot of women who are in abusive relationships that keep going back to the abuser. Some blame themselves for the abuse. This isn’t the case of all, but some. Maybe he didn’t show remorse at all- maybe she just decided to forgive him because she can’t stay away from him.
That may be the case but it’s three years later, it’s more than likely that he’s done his best to make it up to Rihanna privately and that she’s accepted that.
I don’t get why the public think THEY are entitled to an apology when it was Rihanna that was beaten, I can understand that maybe some people think that he’s angry etc but wouldn’t you be if you’ve been trying to move on with your life/career and the press/public keep throwing it in your face.
It wasn’t that they awarded him a Grammy, it was that they invited him to appear on the show.
Well they’ve had Eminem on the show tons of time and nobody had a problem with that, he’s beat his ex and written songs about Killing her and his mother.
At the end of the day the Grammys are a MUSIC award show and Chris is a musician, what is he meant to do go and live on a rock for the rest of his life?
It would be nice if he would come out against domestic violence more. He could do more work to help those who are hurt by it, and he could tell those little girls out there who say things like,”I’d let Chris Brown hit on me.” That they are worth more than phrases like that. But the truth is, he profits from acting like a jerk who doesn’t care, so he’s not going to speak out publicly like that.
At the VERY least he could have tweeted that those remarks from “fans” were inappropriate.
Miranda lambert shouldn’t be throwing stones when she lives in a glass house. Where was all this sanctimonious tweeting when she was sleeping with a married man. She destroyed a family and then married the man
And because she had a consensual affair with someone (I don’t actually know about this, I’m just taking your word for it), she is not allowed to ever express any opinions on domestic violence, or violence against women, or anything else similarly unrelated?
One of these things is not like the other thing.
If moral purity were required before one was allowed to speak in favor/against something the world would go silent.
More people should speak out against partner violence. I applaud those that do speak out, even if they have their own moral failings to grapple with.
And since when is a consensual sexual relationship remotely the same as beating, kicking, choking, slapping, and biting a significant other in a fit of rage?
I don’t condone cheating at all. Cheating is wrong. What Blake and Miranda did before his divorce was shady.
But partner violence? No one consents to partner violence. Over 3 women a day are killed by an abusive significant other in the US. And every 15 seconds a woman is beaten/abused by a significant other in the US.
So, no, IMO, consensual cheating, while wrong, is not remotely on the same immoral or illegal plane as partner violence.
Team Rage Against Domestic Violence and CALL OUT ALL HOLLYWOOD WIFE BEATERS.
While I am all for making Chris Brown’s life miserable until he owns up to his repulsive behavior, let’s make sure we call out Glen Campbell as well. Did he ever make amends with the public? Did he turn his life around? I don’t know anything about Glen’s life now. My father was a fan and I knew his songs well, but I just want to make sure Miranda is spreading that message around equally. Country musicians have their fair share.
Meanwhile, the real scoop is on Rhymes With Snitch. Chris went to RiRi’s party and tried to make everyone sign confidentiality agreements. Then ENTY posted on twitter that Kakookie had to wait in the limo for a few hours while he was all hugged up on RiRi.
THEN Kakookie tweeted: Silly me.
Now, in January one of Destiny’s Rehab Co-Mods had some insider information dropped on her and she told us in her New Year’s post that Rihanna and Chris were going to do a song together.She also told us they were still seeing each other and that everything else was for show. Then that rumour leaked publicly and NOW they are trying to say it won’t happen.
Yeah, to save face. These two are sick, bringing innocent folk into their drama and playing games with people.
Sean Penn beat the living hell out of Madonna and held her prisoner for nine hours or more. It wasn’t the first time he hit her. He gets Oscars. No one is up in arms.
Sean Connery is a known wife-beater with the police called more than once. He is beloved by many.
Glenn Cambell’s behavior was very disturbing back in the day.
I don’t like Chris, but he has repented, done what the court asked of him, and is being given a second chance with his career. If he’s a woman beater or criminal, it will happen again and we’ll know. Someone will sell him out or go to the police again. But Miranda spouting off and encouraging fans to kill woman-beaters with his name printed, how very Jesus of her. You know, those country singers and God go hand in hand.
Sell those records, Miranda.
I am inclined to agree except that Chris Brown’s attitude does not seem repentant to me.
I must be getting really old, because repentance today sure doesn’t look like it used to (see Chris Brown’s version, aka “hate all u want cuz I got a grammy”). 🙁
Maybe she’s secretly up in arms because this pathetic amalgam of a performer actually won a Grammy? Hee. Really though,unless I’m mistaken, Eminem never actually abused his wife (sang about her slaughter sure)but hey! Also, I think people would be stunned if the numbers of high profile dudes who had hit a woman were revealed. Top of my head, John Lennon, Jim Morrison,Axl Rose,Steve McQueen,Dr. Dre, Johnny Cash….etc. The lifestyle creates a lot of ego and violence. That said, WHO THE LIVING F–K CARES ABOUT CHRIS BROWN? Nobody will let the violence go, because there is nothing else to say about this creepy man-child. Nice teeth BTW, perfect for biting your lady!
“since Karrueche has stayed with him for a few months and is buying his bullsh*t in exchange for a taste of the good life.”….kudos to writer Celebitchy for telling it like it IS!
I do love me some no holds barred writing.
Edit: Looking at the accompanying pics to this story…Chris B. really looks like a monster to me. Totally disgusted. His mouth is big enough I’m certain he could swallow a fist…LOL!!!
Miranda is amazing.
And I’m glad they’re making an example out of chris brown. He’s such an idiot.
I’d love to see him try what he did to rhianna on Miranda.
Yeah she’s so amazing and anti domestic violence that she said nothing about her husband honouring Glen Campbell who knocked his wifes front teeth out, but yeah… That wouldn’t get her as much publicity as bashing CB right?
Yeah…this is why I didn’t jump on the “Team Miranda train.” She was JUST A BIT over-the-top in her rants about Chris B., which when someone does such, I’m always a little reluctant and curious. I was kinda wondering like WHY is she is rabid about this…SOMEthing is motivating her & it’s not necessarily exactly the subject-at-hand she’s implying is…know what I mean?
Something about Miranda’s ranting is disturbing me…there’s something else driving her actions. And now…to discover what you mentioned…the story is becoming a little more focused. Maybe this girl isn’t completely “there.” Also, have heard she had an adulterous affair, then married the guy? She’s a bit unhinged for my tastes. I’d rather have another “poster child” ranting about Chris B….someone more legit. This Miranda’s not “doing it” for me.
Kimbob–
She’s not unhinged about this. Miranda’s parents took in and provided shelter for domestic violence victims in her family home when she was growing up. So, the reason Miranda is so vocal (or “rabid” in your opinion) about this is because she’s seen first hand the effects of it and the toll it takes on the victims/families.
I would love it if she would call out the smug, unapologetic women beaters who lurk in every corner of the entertainment industry. Including Glenn Campbell. But I’m also not going to criticize her for being one of the few in the industry who are vocal and unapologetic about thinking that CB (or any abuser) shouldn’t get a free pass and tongue bath by the industry either.
@PleaseICU “But I’m also not going to criticize her for being one of the few in the industry who are vocal and unapologetic about thinking that CB (or any abuser) shouldn’t get a free pass and tongue bath by the industry either.”
^ The whole point is that she ISN’T calling out ALL wife beaters she’s singling CB out and milking it for all it’s worth, If she had just mentioned it in her tweets and her husband wasn’t honouring wife beater Glen Campbell at the same ceremony then maybe she could be legit but since she didn’t even MENTION Glen and is acting like some crazy CB hate rally leader at her concerts she’s playing the publicity game to me.
Why is it not ok for CB to get an award but it’s fine for Glen Campbell???
@TruthTella
The award wasn’t what I was bothered by actually. The winners of the awards the producers/Academy can’t necessarily control. They *can* control what kind of message they send to their audience though. They can choose to not devote any extra airtime or give a marketing platform to rage-filled women beaters.
I was disgusted that he was invited to perform twice and given standing ovations by the idiots in the audience.
I didn’t know about Glenn Campbell’s unapologetic violent streak until I read it on here after the Grammys. The standing ovation and honors he received during the show are tainted IMO as well.
Its not her job to say something to every single person who’s done what chris brown did, but it’s better than just accepting it like alot of people seem to do. Nobody can hate on her for standing up for what’s right. Some people just really feel the need to argue everything…. Mirandas amazing.
So Chris Brown beating on Rihanna is unacceptable but conspiracy to commit murder is totally cool? Really people, think before jumping on Team Miranda there. Yes, it is great that she is offended by him and taking a stand but suggesting that abused women murder their abusers is not that answer! And why was no one offended by the honors heaped on Glen Campbell at the Grammys? He abused Tanya Tucker when they were together. How about some outrage over that?
Whatever. The bottom line reality is that sometimes the only way to escape an abuser once and for all is if that person dies. Thousands of women die in Canada in the U.S. every year at the hands of their spouses and keep in mind this is usually after years of abuse so the true percentage of domestically violent relationships that end in murder is hard to nail down.
A friend of mine moved 2000 miles away from her abuser and within a month he hunted her down. He only stopped pursuing her when he died. Let’s not pretend we live in some black-and-white, law-and-order society where “oooh murder is sooo wrong” and that the police protect people. That’s why there is such a thing in the criminal code as “justifiable homicide” and “self defence”. A friend of mine who spent time in jail told me most of the women in there were there for defending themselves against a violent partner.
I love how any time there’s a song or video about women defending themselves (Goodbye Earl, Man down video, etc) people are up in arms and it’s the worst thing ever….but songs with lyrics rife with gratuitous references that are violent, degrading and exploitative of women are just industry norm. F–k off with the sanctimoniousness and see this bullsh– society for what it is.
Yes, I get it. I know a lot about domestic violence, too. My own sister had dynamite placed under her car seat by her husband. She managed to escape with some pretty significant injuries, some of them still affect her 27 years later. I also see there is some “reality” show about women in jail who did their abusers in. Some of these women were able to get their sentences reduced and a lesser number actually managed to get out of prison. The point I was trying to make is…we can’t just get all let’s get those bastards…even if most of the bastards deserve it. Women need to support real women with real issues. Not just stars trying to garner attention for themselves.
Reddmasters, Miranda is still a woman and I for one am glad that one celebrity is not acting like a Stepford Wife and smiling, but speaks out.
Whatever her motives.
This is dumb, in the unedited photo his friend is sitting in front of him taking a photo of CB posing like the birds behind him. He’s mad at Miranda Lambert? No, he’s laughing at her. Great story.
Is it just me or does Miranda Lambert look like she’s telling people to grab their pitch forks and torches in that pic…
It’s just you.
The sign said; ‘Take notes Chris Brown’ and mentioned neither pitch forks nor torches.
No it’s not you. These judgemental hypocrites here want to hate him, even though he was a 19 yr old kid. They are perfect and never effed up in their holier than thou lives so they feel they can keep casting stones. Don’t waste your time trying to get through to them, it’s like beating a dead horse. Pointless.
Celebitchy… PLEASE stop covering this guy. I love this site… seeing posts about him (and it seems to be more frequently now) just SUPPORT his fame, regardless of what he does. He is a horrible person for what he did to Rihanna, and some things are just NOT forgivable. It was NEVER a fair fight,no matter how you look at it and it shouldn’t be that if a person does something despicable, they lay low and then just go back to living their life as it was. This post contributes to his fame, no matter what is said.
Well seagulls are scavengers that like trash…coincidence??
I didn’t know about Glen Campbell being an abuser. Chris Brown is such a little troll, his comment on twitter was really disrepectful to everyone.
His live-in girlfriend needs to get some self-respect and leave this cheating a*hole.
I don’t know much about that country singer but I’m so glad someone in the industry is speaking out against that goon! It seems that no one else has the balls to do it! He beat on a woman and threatened to kill her!!! Why is that okay? Why does he keep getting rewarded for it? He’s not even that good looking OR talented!
He worked for his reward and deserved his grammy. When people like Glen Campbell ,Ozzy Osbourne, Charlie Sheen, Mel Gibson etc. are hounded like Chris, then I will become like a sheep following the crowd.
So until then you will support men who beat women? You are a gem.
@Amanda G, @Leetruth didn’t say they would SUPPORT Chris brown, they said that he had worked for his award (he has) and that until ALL wife beaters are treated the same he isn’t just gonna single out CB like the majority of people and let the rest get on happy ever after.
Btw…that sign Miranda’s holding, it was taken from the crowd at the concert.
Double standards in Hollyweird are irritating as HELL.
Didn’t Sean Penn whoop on Madge too???
There is a difference between other (admittedly shameful and disgusting) Hollywood woman-beaters and Chris Brown. Instead of letting the media and other celebrities make comments about him, Chris Brown wants to fight with every single one of his critics.
He clearly has anger and accountability problems. He is pathological and I don’t believe he will stop abusing women until he shuts down his EGO and realizes he deserves negative comments and disrespect for a WHILE. He brutally beat a woman and he is still unable to hold himself accountable. He respects HIMSELF more than his victims and is fed by his handlers the message that he is perfect and that no one should be talking about his attack a mere 3 years later.
To summarize: he is an obnoxious, ignorant, egomaniac and a piece of shit.
Yep, I believe you nailed it.
So you’re telling me that if a ton of people were saying stuff about you 24/7 three years later you wouldn’t say anything at all?! ok…
Let’s not forget that he’s only 22 not a grown man like all these other men nobody is hating.
Oh Pulease. Sean Penn was pretty young when he married Madonna too. Don’t try and make it seem like Chris was some 14 year old punk who didn’t know better. He did know better. He was an adult when he did it and that is all ther eis to it. His own mother was abused and he’s spoke on that before so he was perfecrlt aware. I believe that you can make mistakes when you are young and come back from them, but that doesn’t mean you can use your age as an excuse WHEN YOU KNOW you are wrong.
I believe Miranda can have several seats with her hypocritical ass. I didn’t even know all about her hooking up with Blake while he was married as I don’t follow country stars that much, but I refuse to believe she didn’t know about Glen Campbell. She grew up country, and I’m sure she heard many adults tell the tales about Glen just like growing up I heard my mother tell me about Sam Cooke, Al Gritz, and Tammy Terrell getting beat by James Brown.
I feel like Miranda can grind her axe else where, because I don’t like how she’s trying to come at Chris and be silent about others.
It’s not like he’s just now saying something and he’s stoically and bravely taken in the criticism, never responding to comments, for the past three years.
He’s been playing the victim and publicly whining about how mean everyone is being to him since before Rihanna’s cuts and bruises ever disappeared.
Sometimes a half-hearted “I’m sorry” isn’t enough. He doesn’t seem to get that.
He doesn’t seem to get that sometimes forgiveness isn’t automatic. Sometimes true reflection and a change in behavior on the part of the wrong-doer is required before forgiveness is granted.
He seems to believe that everyone needs to get over it because he’s over it. He seems to think that the public needs to forgive him on *his* timetable and not their own.
Sometimes it seems like he apologizes for what he does/says just to appease some PR flack not because he truly is sorry or even understands why an apology or regret might be warranted.
It’s like he doesn’t get why some people, based on his own words and actions, might not believe he’s changed or at all remorseful or even understands that what he did to Rihanna was cruel, disgusting behavior.
It’s like he truly believes people are picking on him and being mean to him just to be mean or because they’re jealous not because of his own attitude, words, and actions.
That’s not an attractive trait in anyone let alone a violent woman beater.
@truthtella-
The TRUTH is, he shouldn’t be defending himself for BEATING THE SH-T OUT OF A WOMAN. The truth is, this little sh-t keeps bringing this on himself, tweeting his “haters” to keep provoking people to keep talking about the incident. The truth is, he knows the industry will back him as long as he can sell records to idiots who keep defending his violence because he can dance, so, like most abusers, he gets off on knowing that he has the “power” to do and say whatever the hell he wants. The truth is, the little sh-t hasn’t shown any contrition, or even care enough to fake remorse, because he doesn’t have to. THAT’S what most people are upset about three years later. The truth is, people who show no remose for their actions and do NOTHING to correct their poor behavior do not deserve forgiveness.
The truth is, since you’ve done nothing but defend this little sh-t, you ARE a f-cking apologist. Disgusting.
Team Miranda! Chris Brown is scum!
The SCUM is Miranda for her hypocrisy and racism.
EXACTLY, i didn’t want to say anything and i’m not usually one to play the race card but i have been noticing that none of the white guys who were even older than him got the same ammount of hatred as CB, it does sound a bit dodgy…
The other men who have beat women don’t act like childish, defensive PRICKS like Chris Brown does. They keep their mouths shut and eventually learned to act normal and the public either forgot, or forgave them. CB runs around acting like a wild animal: screaming “F**K OFF” on Twitter and being altogether obnoxious.
Also Chris Brown is being celebrated in an over the top way. He also cries about being a victim like a whiny little turd.
Those things add up to sane people disliking him. It’s not about race, and if you think it is, then you’re delusional and looking for something to be mad about (which people who run straight to the “race card” often are).
Correction, it would have been considered racism if he had beaten up a WHITE woman.
For too many decades, and they were right, a black man beating on a black woman did not garner such attention. Only when a black man beating on a white woman, used to garner attention.
This further proves that this is NOT a case of racism, just a case of not forgiving an unapologetic d-ck for being convicted of beating up a woman. No matter the color of her skin.
Get your facts straight when throwing the racist card blindingly hoping it would stick. You’re not doing black men any favors, nor black women.
The fear of being thought racist is why rappers have been able to say and do horrible things with hardly any comment at all.
If a group of white people had started the trend of singing about ‘f-gs’, dealing, killing people and women as being nothing but wh-res, they would have been spit out by everyone.
That is why there are girls out there now saying CB can beat them, because they think it’s NORMAL and okay.
So you can just stick your racism card and whining somewhere where the sun don’t shine, because it has been more than enough.
Oh someones ALWAYS has to bring “that” card to the table. Racism will never end unless people like you keep bringing light to it! It is what it is and it has nothing to do with skin color…geez!
Oh, yes, TruthTella…You couldn’t wait to throw down the race card. You’ve been gearing up for it since the start of this thread. In fact, You almost seem to have a personal stake in convincing us that we are ALL wrong. I’m glad you finally shut up. Looks like RiRi and Chris’s house of cards is crumbling…everyone is onto them. I’m thinking that the “girlfriend” looking so much like Rihanna is not a coincidence. She’s probably being paid as a decoy so those 2 conniving fakers can hook up on the DL. Now that they’re basically “out”, it won’t be long before the “gf” disappears back into the mist.
He’s always fighting mad at something/one.
And how is it that I lose my good sunglasses at the beach, but assholes like him can wear 25 lbs of bling to the beach and never seem to lose anything? (Other than his mind, I mean.)
I am not Team Lambert. I am Team Anti-Domestic Violence. I’m all for redemption and forgiveness but this little sh*thead doesn’t seem remorseful whatsoever. He has no humility. Maybe it’s a defense mechanism and he’s really sorry and if that’s the case, you’re not winning anyone over. I never hated him as much as I do now. Rihanna wants to take him back, that’s her business. I never had any respect for her anyway. The issue here is that he just wipes his hands clean of everything and blames everybody else for his behavior. Man up and grow a pair. You’re responsible for your own actions. You’re not a child anymore. Stop behaving like one.
So, so true!
He is the most disgusting piece of shit!
Really? Please stop the hysterics.
Paula’s comment was hardly hysteric.
leetruth…But it’s okay for you and TruthTella to play your racecards? Give us all a break and put them back in your pockets. Miranda Lambert is defending a woman of color. How does that make her a racist?
Well I’m taking the race card out, and throwing it back on the table. She couldn’t care less about Rihanna. she told a black young man in 2012 that he needs to be put back in his place. What! But she has no problem with no ones else in hollywood for abuse. It pisses me off to defend chris Brown cuz I don’t really like him. But this is bull because these same people who spew out such hate for CB turn their heads the other way for everyone else who did the SAME thing.
I understand that Brown has become something of a proxy for all woman-beating pieces of trash in Hollywood, but that doesn’t negate the fact that many, many men’s personal lives’ have been overlooked on the basis of power/talent.
That’s not to suggest Chris Brown doesn’t deserve the lambasting – he deserves it all, AND MORE. But to focus solely on him, alone, is distracting from the overall message: You are Accountable for Your Own Actions and Violence is NEVER Acceptable.
And while I appreciate Lambert’s outrage (I think it comes from a sincere place, and I understand the need to articulate Brown as a scapegoat), it’s tacky to keep referencing her song.
Team Domestic Violence Awareness. Love your sisters, ladies!
“But to focus solely on him, alone, is distracting from the overall message…”
It’s not distracting at all, and Chris Brown is the perfect person to bring violent crimes against women back into the forefront of the public’s attention. He’s famous, his jackassery knows know bounds, and there’s no doubt about the severity of his crime and his guilt.
Talking about abuse in general terms isn’t as effective. Pinning a face to it just makes the issue that much more real.
“I understand the need to articulate Brown as a scapegoat”
Brown isn’t a “scapegoat”. Did you read the police report and see the pic of Rhianna’s beaten face? He’s guilty as sin. You’re clearly trying to deflect the heat from Brown. You’ve said he deserves the lambasting, but you excuse him by calling him a scapegoat and a proxy for wife beaters.
I think you’re on Brown’s PR team. The sympathetic tone used to sweeten the totally rank “don’t blame Brown” message was well done. But “articulate” doesn’t mean what you think it means. Look it up.
I hate what Chris Brown did. I haven’t heard his music lately. But the poor guy is getting a double bind message here: Chris what you did was wrong, you have to change; Chris what you did was wrong, you can NEVER change.
Come on people. Chris can’t go back in time and undo what he did.The best he can do is to see what was wrong, make amends as best as he possibly can and change his life around. He’s always going to struggle with his anger issues, but hate feeds that. Forgiveness would help him heal. Give the guy a chance to try to change. That’s the only thing he can do. Rihanna has, why can’t you?
You’re nuts. This “poor guy” is not remorseful, nor has he tried to change. If Rihanna has forgiven him then perhaps she is still stuck in an abusive relationship pattern with him. Many women go back to abusers… that doesn’t mean their actions are OK somehow… What an idiotic comment lol
They want Chris to grovel forever because they think a black man can NEVER change. Chris is not the poster boy for domestic violence. Ozzy nearly killed Sharon Osbourne, Charlie Sheen shot Kelly Preston and Glen Campbell rearranged Tanya’s face.
Again, if this were truly a racist situation, Chris would have been receiving this much flack for beating a WHITE woman, not a black one.
Which proves that it is not a race card, it is an unapologetic d-ck card, no matter his race, or the race of the girl he has beaten up.
You do black men no favor when you fly the race card like that. Because this is one of the first major public cases, where an abuser is getting publicly lynched for beating up a woman. NO MATTER THEIR RACE.
Usher also told him off. I guess he also wanted Chris to grovel forever because he thought a black man can never change, eh?
CB’s antics have shown that he hasn’t changed. Enough with the second, third and fourth chances and let some others get the chance to shine.
Enough non-violent talent that has not been discovered yet.
Forgiveness isn’t automatic. Sometimes more than just saying the words is required.
How has CB changed his life around?
He no longer beats women in public and saves it for behind closed doors?
When someone doesn’t do what he wants or says something he doesn’t like what does he do? He rants and rages…on twitter, in interviews, in dressing rooms tossing chairs out windows, playing pick up basketball, at Vegas clubs breaking bottles in his hand b/c he’s so enraged.
These examples are not pre-Rihanna. These are his actions/reactions *since* Rihanna’s beating!
And afterwards, when he’s rightfully called out, what does he do?
Whines on twitter and portrays himself as the victim of it all and everyone’s out to get him and won’t let him forget.
He wants people to forgive him and to believe that he’s changed his life? Fine. Then how about he actually show through his actions that he has changed!
It’s hard for people to believe he’s changed his life and is no longer that out of control with rage violent guy when he still acts violently and responds with inappropriate amounts of anger at the littlest thing that doesn’t go his way.
Just because the chair he threw didn’t hit and injure someone doesn’t mean it wasn’t a violent act.
Pull your pants up, fool!
Are you for real? He is sagging. Who is the fool now?
You.
No Fran its you for thinking Robyn Fenty is worth defending.
My thoughts exactly, no one wants to to see that shit.
Chris you moron, pull up your goddamn pants!
I misread this title as “Chris Brown is now fighting mad seagulls”, and spent a while wondering how you tell if a seagull’s mad or not. I’m now disappointed to see he hasn’t been in a deathmatch with a flock of pissed off seagulls-I’d very much enjoy seeing pictures of him covered in bird shit.
He keeps this up and he might get a bucket full of mad Jay-Z!
If Rihanna will renew her contract with his management, that is.
They have a new song together, don’t they? I can’t see her seeking new management.
I meant that Jay-Z has apparently not been interested in renewing Rihana’s contract with his company, because of her continuous dealing with CB.
And because of the new songs out today, which were done behind HER record company’s back, I highly doubt that Jay-Z will stick by her side this time. Doubt her management would want to stick with her, if reported gossip is true, that all have been begging her for months to not see or talk to CB again.
They just leaked the “Birthday cake” remix with Chris on it, I take back EVERYTHING i said in his defense (escept that all woman beaters should be treated the same) because he and Rihanna are acting like this is a joke all over twitter, I’m done with the two of them and if he ends up beating her again she won’t have sympathy from me.
Let it be known that I TOLD ya’ll that this was going down just twelve hours ago. I told ya’ll I had the scoop on this.
This is why I could give a damn about our people sometimes Victoria. Of course this was going to happen. They still love each other.
It was 2 songs. She was on one of his songs. He was on Birthday Cake.
Because I refuse to listen to his work, I just read the lyrics for the Birthday Cake collaboration. Any collaboration between an abuser and his victim is disturbing to begin with but those lyrics? So, so sick.
And that line about “sweeter than the rice cake” better not be a racist reference to CB’s current half-Asian girlfriend. Just no.
Rihanna needs help. He needs to fall into a black hole never to be heard from again or something. No wonder her label and team tried to block it all from being released. I bet her manager, record label, and publicist are flipping a sh*t and falling into crisis mode right about now.
She and CB went behind everyone’s backs and released the songs for free on a file sharing website. Even her label knew this was a horrible idea and didn’t want to profit off of it.
IMO they’re back together and it’s only a matter of time before they appear together publicly. And I’m sad for her and disappointed. Even after all these years she doesn’t believe she deserves better. Even with all of her resources and the support system that wanted to help her succeed and move past him and who supported her cutting him out of her life. Domestic violence relationship dynamics are so insidious.
He’s already tried to kill her once. He doesn’t seem to have learned or retained much from his anger management classes. His rage issues and entitled attitude are being enabled by most corners of the industry and his fanbase. His career is hotter than ever. He’s even winning awards and getting celebrated with standing ovations by his peers. What’s to stop him from starting the abuse again? What’s to stop him from following through and actually killing her from the beating or choking?
I really worry for her. If he does start the abuse again IMO she’ll be much less willing to call the cops or ask anyone for help because of the attention and fallout of the last time.
I just hope someone can get through to her and get her to want to get the help she so clearly needs so she can find the strength to break the cycle of abuse and leave him/the relationship behind. Hopefully before the relationship and his brand of “love” literally kills her.
I listened to her song, not his. It was vulgar, crass, hypersexualised, offensive, and just plain rude the way she came at Kakookie. And the beat was wack as was the singing.
Of all the songs they could have come up with to showcase their unity or discuss forgiveness they chose to talk about f’ing like animals. They don’t give a f which is why I don’t feel sorry for Chris Brown.
But honestly Kakookie is just there for her fifteen minutes of fame and shopping sprees because if she had any self respect she wouldn’t have been waiting in cars for hours so her boyfriend can flirt with his ex whom he pulverised.
And THAT’s the reason why I wasn’t bashing CB. She’s moved on and this is her way of telling everyone. Don’t really like neither of them, but *let’s run Chris Brown out of town with flaming torches* was getting old. He didn’t get away with it. He got arrested and has a felony, did community service but it’s still not enough. According to what her face lambert we should shoot him. Lame
Look at Flan and all these mad women. Not a fan of Chris Brown at all. He should be retired and working at a regular job in DC. But look at this thread? “He didn’t show remorse” To who? You? I wasn’t aware this was about you or this happened to you. I thought this was a gossip blog. You say your piece and keep it moving. You take all of this personally but at the end of the day you can’t change the fact Rhianna has taken him back and they are good. I know it must kill some of you, but she does not care what you think at all, so maybe it is time to admit she is an idiot and move on to people worth your time.
Please. You think you’re saying something but you’re really saying nothing. Take the same advice and stop worrying about what others have to say and focus on what you do with your time.
I’m only saying the truth. That there are many women who would love the support this site give to DV victims. Robyn Fenty is not one of them.
The some of the women here thinking that Rihanna should be just like them and think are bordering on arrogance and self righteous now. Seriously.
So let’s say Miranda does say something about Glenn Campbell beating Tanya Tucker. How many people that actually watched the Grammys knew who he was before the show vs the number of people that knew CB before the show? How effective is her message of “Don’t Beat Women!” then? If she wants to get through to young women that they don’t have to take abuse, she HAS to meet them where they are: They know Chris Brown and Rihanna.
I am 34, I vaguely recall Madonna and Sean Penn being married, didn’t really know why they divorced. Charlie Sheen and Kelly Preston? No Idea. Sean Connery… nope. Mel Gibson: Jackass. But not at the Grammys. James Brown:Dead, not a good example.
If her intentions are honest and she wants to shine a light on abuse, and let young girls see that they aren’t the only ones, why WOULDN’T she use what is right there in front of them that doesn’t require wikipedia to figure out what the hell she is talking about.
Who doesn’t know Charlie Sheen?
I didn’t know Charlie Sheen shot Kelly Preston. I, unfortunately, know who Charlie Sheen is.
You’re missing the point. First off, there are plenty of people in her little country circle right now experiencing abuse. With all the whiskey loving country songs tote about you know at least one or two women are with drunken violent people.
I used James Brown as an example in reference about popular R7B/black entertainers with abusive pasts to show that at 27 I knew about those cases when I was like ten because that is my culture and that’s what adults spoke about. So Miranda’s parents growing up in that time frame of Glen’s popularity in her genre of music means it’s pretty hard to believe she didn’t know.
But even if she didn’t know, she needs to sit her ass down and worry about the broken home she helped cause when she was creeping with her husband, and she needs to be willing to refresh the memories or tell the tales of all the grimy men she she knows about hitting women, old or young legend or newcomer. It’s the principal of the matter.
What’s good for one should be good for all, especially when you are f’ing with someone else’s career. Let’s see some famous bitter bitches scorned by their lovers get on Twitter and tweet about Miranda screwing around with a married man and see how she would feel about other people she doesn’t know talking shit about her. Celebrities need to stay out of each other’s business if there is no connection. They all got dirt.
If she had a list of names of douches along with Chris who are beating their wives/partners and it’s well known amongst the stars (and people in Hollyhell love to talk amongst themselves), then she needs to speak on it because right now her motives, regardless of what her parents did, seem real suspect. Make sure your privates are clean before you go publicly airing the dirtiness of others.
Just to clarify, I’m not saying that Miranda Lambert didn’t know. I’m saying that if she is reaching out to women who have suffered domestic abuse or even young girls who might be heading in that direction, then she SHOULD use the example of the incident that everyone knows about.
And frankly throwing out the fact that she and Blake may or may not have been knocking boots before his divorce has nothing to do with this particular argument. It’s an attempt to discredit her that is based on her character, which has nothing to do with expressing her displeasure at Chris Brown performing twice.(Now, the fact that Blake performed with Glen Campbell, yes… that is troublesome.)
Not team Miranda Lamboo.
Fer Shuh.
Her hypocrisy makes me sick.
I mean, a fellow WHITE country singer gets a pass for his wife beating, but a black R&B singer on the same show doesn’t… Shocking.
Chris Brown is a dbag.
But Miranda Lamboo is an opportunistic famewh*re picking on the easiest target out there for her own gain. This doesn’t mean Chris is a good guy–he’s not–but this also doesn’t look good for the hypocritical, morally degenerate cheater Miranda Lamboo.
I am sick of people defending him. He’s a product of an abusive upbringing, he more than any1 else should know that his actions were totally disgusting. I get that some people think every1 deserves a 2 nd chance. If he’d just been more sincere and volunteerd at a battered woman’s shelter, not sure if they’d have him tho, made a big donation and publicly apologised to rihanna, then maybe that’s a start. He’s acted like a total smug, entitled, remorseless, little brat ever since and that is why no1 can forgive him.
And yes i agree,Charlie sheen, Sean penn, mel gibson, Glenn Campbell, jack Nicholson etc should all be treated with the same degree of contempt as Chris brown. Sorry for the rant.
Prediction – Chris Brown will get back with Rhianna.
They will do a duet together ad play the love game = selling the dream.
Then they will argue again and he will beat her ass again and again and again.
And people will still buy his music ? tragic but true
I hope it is okay to re-post the petition link, but Chris Brown’s past & present behavior make me ill and he keeps seeming to get an ego-feeding via public awards & women who still “play his game,” gross…
http://www.change.org/petitions/the-grammys-apologize-to-domestic-violence-survivors
I hope they kill each other!
Ha ha ha ha ha..I love it! I kinda do too.
I can vouch for the fact that Glen Campbell knocked the crap out of Tanya’s teeth, and she’s had fake ones and now implants ever since. He also introduced her to cocaine, which she has struggled mightily with ever since. Not saying anyone onstage should say something about it- that should have happened decades ago when it happened. Most people aren’t old enough to remember it. It was another time when DV was kept in the closet much more than now. I wish Tanya would talk to Rhianna! The DV changed Tanya into an older Miranda who takes NO shit from anyone. I promise you if it happened again, Glen would be lucky to escape with his life.
