    I wonder what will happen with the assault charges. How do you all think it will affect his image if he is found guilty?

  18. Comment by ali

    mothers a mulatto more white than black…his looks if you can call them that are derived from the white blood spilling into the black gene pool…theres no rationalizing the stupidity of white women

  19. Comment by ethnic

  25. Comment by coolcat

    just because his mom is light doesnt mean she is mixed…

  26. Comment by Brent

    I dont know why people think just because your BLACK mother is light like a white person makes them automatically Mixed, My parents are both black but if you look at my mom she looks 100% white, no parent in her, she is BLACK, even if she wasnt i woudl still call myself black

  27. Comment by anen

    chris brown is fully black but light skinned

  30. Comment by ethnic

    I’d agree that he’s mainly Black, but he could have some mixed heritage a few generations ago.

  31. Comment by Nessy

    yeah i seen a pic of his mom she looks like shes half black and half white…hes mixed

  32. Comment by ultimateflofan

    nah. chris looks mullato. he can’t be PURE african american.

  33. Comment by HarajukuBarbie

    He CAN.
    For example;
    There are people who are 5 shades lighter than Chris Brown and are fully African.
    It’s all about genes.

  34. Comment by ethnic

    Five shades lighter than Chris would be almost white.

  35. Comment by ignorance

    I hate ignorant folks . Sorry but chances are chris’s mother is bi-racial. Sorry to burst your little bubbles it must be hard to admit that chris would ever be a quarter white becuz so may people associate white with ‘evil’ ‘bad’ etc…. just like OBAMA everyone says he’s black…but actually he’s bi-racial and was raised by the white side of his family…but go ahead and stay ignorant and refuse to admit or accept that some of your ‘favorite’ celebs / politicians are actually mixed with your so called ‘enemy’ . That’s what’s wrong w/ the world today…people that try to stay seperated by race …and let race define them . Stfu and go read a book !

  36. Comment by just rid it!!

    i say that we should get rid of the whole race card thing and just have a race called HUMAN:)…LOL there goes half of the crimes and racism in the U.S….and c breezy still fyne;)

  37. Comment by shaye

    WHO THE FUCK CARES ABOUT WHAT CHRIS MOM’S LOOK LIKE. BESIDES, SHE ISN’T UGLY DUMBASSES, SHE MIGHT NOT BE ALL THAT PRETTY BUT UGLY IS A VERY HARSH WORD. AND FOR THE INFINITIETH TIME , CHRIS BROWN IS BLACK. HE’S NOT BIRACIAL BECAUSE HIS MOTHER AND FATHER IS BLACK. BESIDES, EVERYONE IS MIXED WITH SOMETHING DUH! JUST CUZ HE’S LIGHT DOESN’T MEAN HE HAS TO BE MIXED WITH WHITE. BLACK PEOPLE COME IN DIFFERENT RANGES OF COMPLEXION FROM HIGH YELLOW TO DARK SKINNED. BLACK DOMINATES AND IF U HAVE ANY BLACK IN U AT ALL THEN U’RE CONSIDERED BLACK, A NEGRO. I’M SURE CHRIS BROWN CONSIDERS HIMSELF BLACK AND NOT BIRACIAL!!! HE LOOKS BLACK TO ME!

  38. Comment by jesse

  42. Comment by Stephanie

    Wow, some of you are so disrespectful and immature! Who cares what nationality he is or what his parents look like. Do you go around judging everyone you see or just the celebs? To me there is no difference, regardless they are all people getting judged! So much more to life than that!

  43. Comment by Luca

    I say READ people. Knowledge is the key. We live in a world of many different cultures, ethnicity and nationalities. It will never change so deal with it. If you go back in history, you’ll see that all ethnicities have been condemned in one way or another. Shouldn’t we learn and grow from that? Not digress but progress. Most of the above comments are made from blacks. You should be ashamed of yourselves. You hold yourselves back by making such uninteligent comments like these. Take the time to reread what you’ve written and seriously ask yourselves if those are inteligent comments. If you can honestly say YES, something is wrong. However, I will say READ, READ, READ! The only thing you’ll gain from it, is KNOWLEDGE and from that breeds understanding, love and fellow humanship. A person shouldn’t be liked because of his ethnic, racial or cultural background but because he/she is a human being. There’s only one race….the HUMAN RACE! Until we realize this, there will always be wars and annihilations. Grow up and become apart of the solution and stop fueling the problem.

  44. Comment by yy

    Sorry but to be real…light skinned blacks have white relatives somewhere down the line…they are not 100% black…remember the slavery days when black women were raped by white men!!! this is why we all are different colors….whether we want to except it or not, it happened. hell. I’m light skinned and both my grandparents on both sides of my family are half black/white but they look more white than black. My great grandparents were white. I didn’t find this out until I was about 10 years old when I met them for the first time. so, I think this is in every black persons family. Trace your family roots. see what you find.
