"Where are all the people that are so mad at Chris Brown fans for liking Chris? Y'all love to bring up Rihanna and Karruche, but here she is smiling ear to ear in his face. That’s why it pays to mind your own business. These celebrities aren’t even as mad as you."

@TheDejaKing said:

"This is why a lot of fans were able to move on from Chris Brown’s terrible past, because a lot of the women we were angry for have already made their amends with him (as anyone has a right to do in their personal life)."
