Chris Brown

What a waste of talent. You take two of music's rising stars who are dating. Both have such bright futures and are amazing artists.

Oh, then the boy goes and slaps around the girl. Way to go Chris Brown. Now I can't listen to your music anymore and no one wants to play it anyways because that is condoning violence.

Such a waste of a career, he's only 19 and I don't know who will accept him anymore. I can't take him seriously.

"Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired," the 19-year-old said in a statement released by his spokesman. "I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person."
He added, "Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong. While I would like to be able to talk about this more, until the legal issues are resolved, this is all I can say except that I have not written any messages or made any posts to Facebook, on blogs or any place else. Those posts or writings under my name are frauds."

I think it's so sad that violent relationships still happen today. We shouldn't be afraid to speak out when things get physical. Apparently this isn't the first time that Chris has been physical with her. I hope Jay-Z kicks his ass.


On a lighter and more inspirational note, a man named Dave Mahler established a website--USAtogether.org--that allows veterans to publish their stories and ask for help if they are financially struggling. How awesome is that??? It's almost like if we don't have a loved one in the war, we probably don't even think about it unless it comes on the news while we are watching it. I'm guilty of it.
