Irish Band Turns Down Chris Brown’s Offer Due To Past With Rihanna
Chris Brown extended an invitation to the Irish rock band The Original Rude Boys to open for him at concert in Dublin, but the group turned him down due to the R&B’s stars history with domestic violence.
In an interview with a local TV station, Original Rude Boy member Sean Walsh explained:
“Even though it’s a huge opportunity to play in the O2 with a major hip-hop star and a substantial fee was offered, we are completely against Chris Brown’s assault on Rihanna… In addition, with our latest single ‘Blue Eyes’ being about domestic violence, it goes against everything we are about as a band and supporting Chris Brown would send out the wrong message to our fans.”
