Lance Bass Comments on Chris Brown + Rihanna Relationship
Thu, 14 Feb 2013 14:51:18
Former *NSYNC member Lance Bass hosts his own SiriusXM radio show and he is openly gay. So he has plenty of opines and time to share them. The latest? He doesn't appreciate Chris Brown's use of the word "f-----" and he is also thinking that his girlfriend Rihanna might be like a battered wife.
"I think there are a lot of people out there that have anger issues, and you can definitely see that in Chris Brown. I hope he gets the help he needs," Bass said. "I hope Rihanna understands what she is in. I see it happen so many times in couples, where it's like an abusive relationship and you don't know it's an abusive relationship."
He also told Celebuzz, "Calling people 'faggot 'and that stuff, I mean, he may not even mean what he means, but it's a derogatory term that people throw out there and without even knowing why they are saying it. But when it comes to Frank Ocean and knowing that he's … very out … it was definitely meant to hurt him. It's never good to throw those words out there that mean so much."
He is referring to the parking space battle between Brown and Ocean from a few weeks ago. That drama!
Bass also suggested that the fact that Brown is a minority himself should up his sensitivity levels. He said "[Brown] should understand that being a black man himself. He should know that the F word is just like calling you the N word in a very derogatory way. When you come from a minority like that, being gay or black or whatever, it's like there should be an understanding, like we all get each other. But you don't see that a lot, which is really sad."
What do you think of Lance Bass' take on Chris Brown's actions?
