"Hey Chris Brown, throw your Rolex at the Poor!"
R&B artist Chris Brown danced and even flew over the delighted audience during his set at Sunday's (August 28) MTV Video Music Awards.
At the beginning Brown attempted to avoid his very own "wardrobe malfunction" with his loose Rolex watch. After removing the Rolex he threw it into the audience to a security person, but missed.
Brown most likely thought his $22,000 diamond encrusted Rolex was long past.
After his active performance, his bodyguard went into the fans to figure out if anyone had found the watch. Then to everybody's amazement, an honest fan came forward with the Rolex.
A representative for Brown announced, "Although Chris didn't get to meet the fan, he's very appreciative of the fan's actions."
I imagine Mr. Chris Brown was "appreciative." It is a $22,000 Rolex! Maybe Brown was even grateful. (Remember it is diamond encrusted.) It does not appear he felt too indebted for the honorable action.
Oh well it seems it was another happy Hollywood ending for one of our deserving young celebrities rising. That is what makes this such a heart-warming human interest story.
Right?
Remembered, Chris Brown has known some rough and tricky times in his young career.
It has only been 2 years since the arguable singer plead guilty to felony assault on then girlfriend star Rihanna. After that unpleasantness he continued to make music, and tried to keep his career moving forward.
Now he has rave reviews over his MTV Video Music Awards performance, and the successful conclusion to the Rolex event.
Has Chris Brown ultimately risen above the furore that is Chris Brown?
In retrospect the 22 year old R&B pop star paid his dues after being given probation and community service for beating then-girlfriend Rihanna. The plea-deal included 180 days of community service like trash removal in his local Virginia with 5 years of supervised probation and a court-mandated 52-week domestic violence counselling program.
In 2010 Brown had his heart set on helping people, no matter what the public or media thought. He wanted to generate cash for both his hometown community of Richmond, Virginia, as well as the quake victims of Haiti with his "Virginia Stand Up! A Call to Action" concert he'd headlined and organized.
Brown spoke in an exclusive to PopEater about what led to his charitable ways , and regardless of what many in the media think, there wasn't any ulterior motive behind the concert. "It's not for PR or press," Brown told PopEater, and admitted that when the media and others say it is just a ploy to make over his image following his assault arrest, "it injures because it's from my heart."
Prior to the MTV Video Music Awards the singer took time out from his tour Down Under to spend it on some charity work for children.
He joined a ten-pin bowl outing with a group of disabled kids from the Sydney-based Australian chapter of Best Friends, a group that provides help for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Back at the MTV Video Music Awards when Brown transitioned into his song" Beautiful People ," he flew across the stage and turned flips above the onlookers while attached to thin wires, and then landed frequently to continue his wonderful dance arrangement. After leaving the stage with some"Matrix"-type moves he sent his bodyguard in search of the Rolex.
"Beautiful People"
Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere I go
Everywhere that I've been, the only thing I see is
Is beautiful people, beautiful people
Beautiful people, beautiful people
A $22,000 diamond encrusted Rolex on the wrist of a 22 year old entertainment sensation makes a certain statement to young fans. Please be happy to add your own feelings to what that statement is communicating.
Is it an obligatory statement for those with celebrity?
Is it consistent with having"a heart set on helping people, irrespective of what the general public or media think?"
Chris Brown is now on to his countrywide F.A.M.E. tour that resumes this Sep with guest performers like Kelly Rowland and T-Pain. Fans should rest assured that the young star will without doubt take extra care of securing his expensive jewelry before he is going on stage.
Or he could throw his Rolex to the Poor. Really Chris it makes better sense.
