Last Thursday, Chris Brown spent hours terrorizing his ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran. It was sort of disturbing to see how his stalking and harassment of his ex was covered in the press, like “oh, it’s sweet that he wants to get back with Tran” or “he was just encouraged by friends.” That might explain meeting her in a public place when he knew she would arrive. It does not explain everything that came after, including jumping into her car, screaming outside of her house and forcing another confrontation at a diner at 4 am. Well, yesterday Chris Brown did a lengthy radio interview with Ryan Seacrest and he ended up talking about Tran, his baby Royalty and much more. Some highlights:
On his relationship with Tran: “I’m going to be honest and be a man about it and just take it one day at a time. I can’t promise anything and I can’t jump over the moon, but it takes time for all wounds [to heal]. I take full responsibility for my actions and things that I’ve done in the past. I feel like it’s just a time thing. I’m not a hateful person. Of course I still love her, but mentally right now, I think everything takes time. I just need to focus on being the best father I can be.”
What he’s learned since becoming a father: “There comes a time when people kind of have to grow up and become more of an adult and take on different responsibilities. I think this was just a blessing in disguise with my daughter because I get a chance to look at her and teach her the right path and also be a father in my daughter’s life. Just to see a smile on her face—just to see the littlest things—is emotional for me, so I just love that aspect of being able to be a father now.”
He also said he hopes to arrange some playdates for Royalty with North West and Blue Ivy Carter. Which… I mean, that would never happen, right? To some people – Jay-Z and Kanye – Chris Brown is still persona non grata. You can hear Brown’s interview here.
As for what he says about his daughter… “a blessing in disguise”? In disguise of what? Most people would say that a baby is simply a blessing full-stop. Only narcissistic monsters think of children as solely an opportunity to revamp their own image. Oh, and it sounds like Brown isn’t done with Tran. She seriously needs to get the police involved, because Chris Brown does not sound like a man who believes that it is truly OVER.
