Chris Brown Defends Tour Amidst Online Backlash

Chris Brown is questioning the criticism directed at fans who choose to attend his co-headlining tour with Usher. In a recent social media post, the singer expressed bewilderment at online backlash, particularly from "rage bait pages" and "fake woke" accounts.

Brown acknowledged that some criticism stems from his past legal troubles, including a 2009 guilty plea for felony assault against a former girlfriend. He reflected on this past incident, stating it would "haunt him forever."

The tour comes years after a reported physical altercation between Brown and Usher in May 2023, though they have collaborated on music and performed together since.

Usher has publicly supported Brown, referring to him as his "little brother" and expressing admiration for his music and their enduring bond.
