And the year before that his ex-girlfriend, model and actress Karrueche Tran, was granted a five-year restraining order against him. Just a quick recap of a few of the more major ones – in 2019 he was released after being detained in Paris on aggravated rape and drug offences.Ī year earlier, in 2018, he was accused of presiding over a drug-fuelled orgy at his Los Angeles mansion where a woman was sexually assaulted by two of his associates. His history of violent assaults stretch back over 12 years. A young woman claims – according to TMZ – that she was struck across the head by Chris Brown so hard her weave came out.Ĭhris Brown has shown no signs that he is committed to any kind of rehabilitation.Īnd, as we all know, it’s far from being the only blemish on the Grammy winner’s record. It was only a couple of days earlier that police were called to Chris Brown’s LA home and are now investigating an alleged assault. Why is it that some folks need only make an off-colour tweet and are then harangued and called to be removed from public discourse, while others can, say, have a long, documented history of violent attacks against women, without there being any consequences to their actions? Or is it only really women who we rush to “cancel”? He still gets oodles of radio air-time, his music is celebrated – and he continues to make a mint out of his celebrity status. Now, I’m no fan of the frenzied public pile-ons that we’ve apparently decided to call cancel culture, but it infuriates and puzzles me to no end that Chris Brown continues to be given a platform. That’s a non-negotiable hard no for me, thanks. * Rihanna calls for end to gun violence after her cousin is shot dead
