Rapper Chris Brown Will Be Allowed to Appear on 'Dancing with the Stars' Despite 'Good Morning America' Blowup

Chris Brown is a rapper. His former girlfriend is Rihanna, and in 2009 he attacked her. Brown was a recent guest on "Good Morning America," where he was interviewed by Robin Roberts. When asked about the incident, Brown left the set angrily. Now more information has surfaced and apparently all is forgiven.

I'm using as reference an article by Meena Hartenstein titled "Chris Brown follows violent breakdown on 'Good Morning America' with game of basketball in NYC." This was posted on the NY Daily News.com. I am also using an article on The Insider.com.

Chapter one of the incident is about the fact Roberts inquired of Brown about the felony attack on former girlfriend Rihanna. He left the set very upset.

After Brown left the set he went backstage and ripped off his shirt and threw a chair through a window. He allegedly then boisterously came down a hall looking for the person responsible for setting such an interview up. Backstage personnel hearing the commotion got scared and called 911-nothing came of it.

Brown then left the studio and entered a pickup basketball game where he was heckled as a villain for his behavior.

As a result of this, it was questioned whether or not Brown would be allowed to appear on an upcoming episode of "Dancing with the Stars." And, of course, future appearances on "Good Morning America" are highly questionable.

Luckily for us, particularly Chris Brown fans, there is chapter two.

According to "Good Morning America," Brown had agreed to talk about his past. Further, Robin Roberts interviewed him way back in December of 2009 and therefore felt comfortable asking him follow-up questions. She was shocked when he reacted the way he did.

At any rate, yet another source, MTV.com, says that Brown will be allowed on "Dancing With the Stars." "Good Morning America" won't press charges about his behavior, and perhaps on a less publicized note it is not considered that he in any way violated his parole.

Apparently "GMA" has to take a little blame for bringing up the issue of his assault on Rihanna up because, as one source says, "...he's been trying to move on from his past and focus on his music..." Well, are they to blame?

What's left to say? A guy goes on a show and blows up and all of a sudden it's alright.

That's entertainment in America.
