More than you EVER wanted to know about Chris Brown


Every so often some interview will come out where a celebrity really over shared. Sometimes it’s their own personality quirk, and sometimes it’s because they had a very cunning interviewer. With singer Chris Brown, I’m going to have to say it was the former. The 18 year old gave a very revealing interview to Blender. And by revealing, I don’t mean insightful. I mean revealing too damn much. And seeing that I found it to be kind of odd and over personal, I’m going to share it with all of you too, in the hopes that you’re intrigued by people saying things they shouldn’t, just like I am.

The “Run It!” singer sat down with Blender and answered a series of questions. On the one hand, you have to blame the interviewer for asking in the first place. On the other hand… Chris answered.

What did your 10th-grade report card say?
A’s, A’s, A’s. Straight A’s, all through kindergarten, elementary school, middle school …

Have you ever been arrested?
Yeah, but it’s not on my record. I got arrested for fleeing from the police on a little minibike. When I was living in New York, my homeboys wanted to ride through the park. The police caught us, but all they did was take the bikes from us, so we didn’t get in trouble.

But you’re only 18. What vices do you have?
Basketball, my music and women.

What personal habit do you have that other people find annoying?

I like picking the nails off my toes.

What do you look like naked?
Pretty damn good.

What do you refuse to eat?
Chitlins. My grandma used to cook them, and she’d be like, “These are good, boy!” I never would eat them. They smelled like feces.

Underwear or commando?
Underwear. I wear a new pair of drawers every day. I won’t wash my drawers and put ’em back on. I just throw them away.

If we talked to an ex-girlfriend, what would she say about you?
That she f*^#ed up!

Yeah I was impressed too. Chris Brown strikes me as a very young 18 year old, in terms of emotional maturity. Or like he’s trying to answer in the way he thinks a guy in hip hop would/should. His responses are all a bit too stereotypical. Women/sex/sports. Though that could also be attributed to being 18. Chris elaborated on his underwear policy to Starpulse, noting, “He says, “I’m not a germophobe, but I don’t feel like washing them ‘cos I’m always moving, so I buy different packs. I buy like five or six packs… and I’m good for, like, a week and (then) I gotta get a whole lot of new drawers.” Alright. Well we all have our thing. That one might be particularly wasteful… I mean assuming Chris keeps up the underwear habit for… let’s say 10 years, before someone talks him out of it. That’s 3,650 pairs of underwear, more or less. You know how you hear those stories of wealthy musicians who blew all their millions and can’t seem to account for it? I think I just figured out where it’s really going.
