Chris Brown: Accusations of homophobia are bullshit, I love my gay friends
Chris Brown has said accusations that he is homophobia are bullshit after TMZ the R&B singer had settled a dispute with Atlanta Black Gay Pride Weekend by handing over $12,500.
Brown, 26 allegedly accepted a retainer for a scheduled appearance at a lesbian party last weekend, but pulled out last minute because ‘a handful of gay men were present.’
Responding to the accusations, Breezy said he was never booked for the show and declared his love for the LGBTI community.
But on Monday (14 September) TMZ reported the following:
‘According to our sources, a deal really was in place for CB to perform at the September 7 event, but details of the performance never got to Chris.
‘We’re told the talent agency that booked the gig for Chris believed the event promoters had breached the contract – by using the wrong pic of Chris on posters – so they never told him about the deal, which is why he never showed.
‘But both sides just want to squash the mix-up – so we’re told Chris’ agency returned the $12,500 deposit. However, the Pride promoters say they haven’t received the dough yet, and they’ll sue if they don’t get it soon.’
TMZ has previously reported allegations that Brown shouted anti-gay slurs during fights with fans and bisexual singer Frank Ocean.
Brown then took to Instagram to put the site on blast and the matter to rest.
‘Yall gotta stop with this bullshit. I was never booked. Yall love to say I’m homophobic and shit to have something to be mad at,’ he wrote.
‘I don’t care that you are gay Harvey [founder and managing editor of TMZ ]. I applaud you and a person of your caliber should be finding outlets for young gay men/teens and women to be more open and comfortable about coming out. Some of my friends have came out to me and I love them just the same.
‘It would really be a blessing if u focused on real issues. But all these false stories to bring your site traffic is corny. But find another person to drag through the mud of lies. I know I’m talented but I’m not running for president any time soon so fall back wit all the nonsense.’
