ABC Orchestrating First Meeting Between Chris Brown and Rihanna

ABC wants to air first joint interview with Chris Brown and Rihanna, claims report

Late last week, Chris Brown let his temper get the best of him when he thrashed his dressing room by throwing a chair through a window, right after his Good Morning America interview. ABC wants him back.

The interview was meant to promote his latest album “F.A.M.E,” which came out last week, but, for some reason, GMA host Robin Roberts kept asking Chris questions about the Rihanna incident.

Though he made it clear that he was on the show to promote his music, Roberts kept pushing him, as the video below will confirm.

After he was done with it and he performed, Brown proceeded to trashing his dressing room, reportedly ripping off his shirt and throwing a chair through a window.

Not only is ABC not going to press charges for the incident but it’s reportedly hard at work to get Brown back for a new interview, E! Online reports.

The idea is to milk this for what it’s worth – and hopes are high that ABC may actually succeed where many others have failed already in getting Brown and Rihanna to do their first interview together since he beat her up.

Sources at ABC have confirmed to me that producers want to ‘milk this event for everything it’s worth,’ high moral news standards (and, one assumes, laws, especially those involving convicted felons and their subsequent behavior) be damned,” E! writes.

Brown will still appear on Dancing With the Stars, the popular dance competition on the same network, but there’s something bigger at work here: possibly a joint interview with Rihanna.

“What’s far more likely is orchestrating Chris Brown talking to Rihanna for the first time,” says a network source for E! Online.

The interview, it would seem, would be conducted by the same Roberts, even though Brown has made no secret about how he felt “exploited” on his latest GMA appearance by the same interviewer.

But ABC is determined to make this happen no matter what, because it believes this is the story that will boost ratings like no other.

“It’s all about the ratings. At all other costs,” says the same source.

Until that happens – if ever – below is a fragment of Chris Brown’s GMA appearance, when he lost his cool as Roberts kept pushing him about Rihanna instead of speaking of his album.

Why is ABc still trying to exploit Chris Brown? He's trying to put his life back together and here comes ABC along with its colleagues such as Robin Roberts who is only interested in two things: "RATINGS AND HER OWN SELF INTEREST" to come in mess things up again for Brown and Rihanna. So Rihanna was beat up- TWO YEARS ago in which Brown paid his debt and still is!!! What more do you want. Oh and for the record, there are more traggic things happenings right now in case you forgot. So instead of trying to get your ratings up, PAY ATTENTION to actual events that are killing thousands of inocent people that DO COUNT!!!!

why cant people leave this poor man alone!!!!!!!? I think the public and the reporters need to get a life, so he hit her big freakin deal, she bit him, the way I see it alls fair in love and war, . If she cant take it she don't need to start it, I have been married for 20 years to a wrestler, no he has never hit me, but Im sure if I started it he might, and I wouldnt expect any less. I think you should defend yourself no matter what your gender, Im through with telling my son, dont' ever hit a girl, now its son if she hits you oh well, that must be what she wants.... Everybody get over it leave Chris alone, I for one am standing behind him 100% and will continue to buy his music and support his career, as for Rhianna, well, some things I like, most I don't, I think the industry is giving her a little to much credit... like the her new lyrics "Sticks and stones my break my bones, but chains and whips excite me" well maybe Chris misread the signs she was giving off that night......
