Rap-Up.com || Chris Brown Hits the Runway for New York Fashion Week

Naomi Campbell and Chris Brown strike a pose backstage at the supermodel’s Fashion for Relief: Haiti show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Bryant Park in New York City on Friday (Feb. 12). Chris was dapper as he walked the runway in a tuxedo at the event to benefit CARE for Haiti, along with Estelle and Kelly Osbourne. Earlier in the day, he soaked up the fashions of British designer Andrew Buckler.

Did anybody see my girl Naomi’s body?!?!?!? Still sick after all these years. That chick is still QUEEN OF THE CATWALK. Chris was good too. Glad to see he getting out. After all he has been black balled lately.

Everytime I see Chris Brown I am just filled with anger. Personally, it makes me sick that he even shows his face anymore and it would make me very happy if someone were to give him the bruises and black eyes he gave Rihanna. He’s OVER. Everything he touches now turns to ish, his album flopped, no one cares anymore since he beat the daylights out of a WOMAN. Chris Brown do us (all the sane people) a huge favor and FALL BACK!!!!!

Say what u want haters cause Chris ain’t going anywhere. Besides if Charlie Sheen can get a second chance than why can’t Chris? Plus if you hate him so much than you wouldn’t be wasting your time looking up articles on him let alone comment on them. So haters do everybody a favor and FALL BACK!!!!!

Um, @yuck, all the sane people don’t want him to fall back, they want him to get his life back together, which is what he seems to be doing. I do wish that he would have waited to release an album (at least a year or so) but he did make that choice. I personally wish him the best because I have read many articles about him volunteering his time with Best Buddies and the Jennesee Center so it seems, like I said before that he is getting his life back on track and that he is learning his lesson. It takes time, but his career is DEFINITELY not over.

While I understand what Chris Brown did was wrong I’m not understanding why you all are so angry??? It was a despicable thing he did but THAT IS NONE OF OUR BUSINESS! The man did was not in a relationship with us. All his job entailed was entertaining me. That doesn’t mean i find beating women up a good thing. Its just shouldn’t affect someone’s music career. Get out the man’s business people!

@keesha and Ghetto fab, you guys are tottaly right. What Chris did was wrong but he’s paying for it. I’ve even read articles about him sitting in circles with other dv victims and I was very pleased with him. Rihanna said herself in the 20/20 interview that she wants Chris to do well and grow up from this(which he definitely is). Chris maybe the underdog right now but in a couple of years he’ll be back where he was. Heck I like both him and Rihanna and I wish them both the best.

aight, i acknowledge all of the points made and in SOME ways maybe you’re right, at the end of the day there is only one true judge, and obviously I am not it. However, I just don’t feel like he is sincere. It seems to me like he more or less does this community service and what not as a way to get in people’s good books, not to truly repent (as his actual apologies were completely inadequate). I agree that he is here to entertain, and that means his personal life shouldn’t need to come in to play, but the extent of what he did and the fact that enjoying his entertainment means him gettin paid well I just don’t like that idea anymore…selfish? Maybe, but it feels too much like we’re just ‘forgetting’ and moving on from what he did. I used to love his music and now I wouldn’t give him a single cent for it. Anyway, any time I try to imagine giving the new album a chance I just imagine him doing what he did and I just feel sad, more than angry. I hope he mad at himself now anyway because Rihanna is on top, shittin all over ‘Graffiti’ and she’s NEVER comin back down! DEUCES Chris, cuz you done screwed it up wit the best you ever had!

@ yuck!….if you don’t want to see him change the channel on your tv or radio. This is what is funny about haters, you purposefully find articles on him and talk about how much you can’t stand him and wish he goes away. How about in your own “little” mind, he goes away and you don’t pay attention to his songs or his appearances.
He still has a very strong fanbase internationally. Chris Brown’s I Can Transforma Ya went platinum according to Billboard sales of the song. His album, although sales are not great, is beating out Timberland who is well liked in the pop world. IMO Graffiti is his best album to date and is a collage of sounds. At the SOS Haiti concert, Chris received a standing ovation.
Those who are his fans should not be denied his talent just because others feel opposite. I personally did not care for Tupac and found him to be the worst hypocrite but I never felt Tupac should not be allowed to perform his music just because “I” didn’t care for him. Everybody doesn’t have to like an artist, celebrity, politician, etc.
James Brown, Al Green and Miles Davis were great artists but they abused their significant others and still managed to make great musical contributions. Bill Clinton has a history of being an awful husband but proved to be a good president. One area of a person’s life doesn’t have to define that person.

For the record; I do not ‘seek out’ articles on Chris Brown so I can dish it out. PLEASE! I like to read every article rap-up posts and I was surprised and curious to see his lame-ass up there so I wanted to see what’s up. And now that I have, PROPS to chris for the friggin fashion show, I expect to see him hit the number one spot any day now…The critic for the Chicago Sun-Times couldn’t have said it better; “Sometimes, great art is made by reprehensible human beings, and squaring the two is enormously difficult. Thankfully, that problem isn’t nearly as thorny when reprehensible human beings make art that is thoroughly mediocre and at times just garbage.” Deuces..

@ yuck “DEUCES Chris, cuz you done screwed it up wit the best you ever had!”
I’m sure Chris realizes he really messed up his relationship but they both played apart in the unhealthy aspects of their relationship; although Chris does shoulder most of the blame. She said both were practically obsessed with each other. Out of Rihanna’s own mouth and court records, she slapped Chris in the middle of them having a VERBAL argument…who was the abuser that day? Rihanna hit her own brother with a glass object that required him to get stitches…who was the aggressor that day?
I am a CB fan but I sympathize with the fact both Chris and Rihanna came from abusive homes. Both of their mothers were still living with their abusive partners at the time Chris and Rihanna respectively left home to start their music career. Neither person ever received counseling to deal with their childhood trauma.
Plus I’m sure Chris and Rihanna still miss each other to an extent…look at Rihanna’s Russian Roulette and Rude Boy videos. Her main love interests are men who have the same complexion as and close fade haircut like Chris. Her rebound dude even has these same physical features as well. To say she just has a “type” is an understatement.

yo as IF I memorized an article on that fool…I was checking the legitamacy of tmj’s claim that Graffiti did better than Timbaland’s Shock Value 2. And fair dues, it did. Album wise. Single wise Timbo still ownin it. Conveniantly, underneath the chart positions was, the abundantly negative, comments made by critics on Graffiti. Ash, read it and weep son.

LOL, @Ash, all I did was look up Graffiti on wikipedia dude..check it! Sorry to disappoint but as my quote was from the Chicago Sun-Times, which don’t sound to me like no magazine, I assure you I really did not memorize this quote…I don’t live next nor near Illinois man, let alone Chicago. Now have you please got anything better than the usual ‘if you hate him so much why you checkin on him’ bull ISH?! ya’ll so deluded, it’s frustrating.

@yuk/all other “haters” ur frustrated because ppl are defending chris brown, guess what we’re sick of ppl like you who are constantly trying to tear him down. you have not proved one point with your rude and negative comments so the question is valid in why are you posting here and then taking the time to argue about someone you clearly dislike…Life’s too short for this crap move on to the next pls!

I wasn’t even focused on Chris Brown at all through all this. The video of the models/modeling itself was compelling stuff and not in a good way (except for the cause). But I won’t say anything more than that.

I’ve always hated Charlie Sheen even before the domestic abuse case and I hope his crappy acting career is over too…what second chances are we referring to exactly anyway? I know they’re still playing his shitty ‘two and a half men’ show and I’m pretty sure that’s about it. He’s as dead to the world as Chris Brown so pipe down about friggin Sheen already. Hey, maybe Chris and Charlie can come up with some sort of collaboration and collectively share the meagre remnants of their fan bases? Clearly, Chris’s current attempts to get back in the game are failing, plus I think we all know that Chris is a terrific ACTOR…

February 15th, 2010 at 2:10 pm
@yuck, you have some serious issues. Either you are domestic violence abuser, obsessed with Chris Brown, or you have nothing else to do all day. It takes just as much energy to hate someone, as it does to love someone. So for someone you claim to hate, you sure is giving him alot of your energy, which means you eat, sleep, and excuse my language, shit Chris Brown. You are probably one of the ones on Rihanna’s site dissing people that hate on her, but you come over here and hate on him. The problem is not Chris Brown, the problem is people like you, that sit back and hide behind your computers hating and judging people when you are probably not perfect yourself. This young man made a mistake, and just because you think he is not being synpathetic is your problem. No one knows how he is feeling. It’s something about him that makes you take time out of your life to post so much hate. Chris Brown is not going anywhere, and what you fail to realize, its haters like you are the main reason he will continue to be in the spotlight.

@dude, well spoken, I am so tired of people hating on Chris Brown, he might not be where he should be, but he will. Its so funny, it took all of this for Rihanna to be on top, because everybody knows, before all of this DV mess, Chris was way on top and bigger than her. I wish him well, continue to do you Chris.

Yeah, i actually enjoy contorversy in these comments, otherwise its the same ole I-luv-Chris thang. BUT i resent you calling him a reprehensible human being (or the paper did?). He did something that was reprehensible, but i don’t think that should DEFINE who he IS. He has no proven history of being an abuser. He snapped at that moment, we don’t have the full story.I think he struggled with his apologies because he knew he couldn’t tell the whole story – what crap she did to make him snap. No one would buy it.
Its sad. I support Chris to the end. CB – Just be YOU baby and keep movin’ forward.Enjoy life, keep doin’ the music. You’ll never win some of these people over, so screw ‘em….
