Rita Ora: Chris Brown’s ‘past’ doesn’t matter because his music is good

Author: | Filed under: Celebrities

Rita Ora has a new interview with the Sun to promote her upcoming collaboration with Chris Brown. Yeah, that’s happening. Rita expresses the desire to finally get her “American takeover” on, and then she talks up Breezy. Rita comes right out and says Chris experiences “discrimination” for his past behavior. She never acknowledges that Chris’ violent behavior is still occurring. Rita seems blind to Breezy’s very real issues.

I wonder how much of Rita’s stance has to do with her ambition and how much is due to her alleged feud with Rihanna. Chris violently abused Rihanna in 2009, and he’s continued to be a tantrumy mess. There’s no love lost between the two women either. Rihanna reportedly banned Rita from her Met gala party. Rita has pulled some SWF moves on Rihanna, including the Tom Ford exchange. Now Rita says it doesn’t matter what Chris did in the past because he makes awesome music:

“Chris Brown is strong, powerful and someone that is important to me personally and professionally. The discrimination and all what people think? If you have a great song then no one cares. It’s really nice that we finally got together because, regardless of what’s happened, the song is just amazing.”

Chris Brown’s violent tendencies are very much an ongoing problem in his on-off relationship with Karrueche Tran. He still can’t control himself, and his temper results in broken windows and disturbingly territorial behavior. But Rita thinks Brown’s issues are all in the past, and anyone who thinks otherwise is guilty of “discrimination.” Amazing.
