Sometimes all you can say is “blergh.” That’s our reaction to the news that Chris Brown – the man who beat Rihanna and was somehow redeemed by a viral video and “The Office” – is planning a “fan appreciation” tour. The singer will hit the road on November 14 and is playing smaller theaters to encourage a “fans only” vibe, according to tour organizers. Sure – or maybe Chris’ peeps are afraid no one’s gonna show up. Proceeds from ticket sales will go to Best Buddies International. Call us cynical, but surely that’s being done to help re-vamp his tarnished image, right?
In a press release announcing the tour, Chris discusses his musical goals, saying, “I wanted to change it up and really be different. Like my style nowadays, I don’t try to be typical urban. I want to be like how Prince and Michael [Jackson] and Stevie Wonder were. They can cross over to any genre of music.”
Good luck with that, pal. You can hear Chris (pictured above leaving dinner in L.A. this week) in his first radio interview since his arrest on Angie Martinez‘s show on HOT 97 today at 3PM EST. Listen here. [Photo: Splash News Online]
