Chris Brown Denies Jay-Z Stopped BET Awards Performance

June 30th, 2009

A rep for Chris Brown has denied reports that Jay-Z kiboshed plans for the singer to hit the stage at the BET Awards on Sunday night (June 28), after the rapper said he would back out of his performance if Brown was part of the ceremony.

Stemming from Brown’s assault of former girlfriend Rihanna, a protege of Jay-Z, a source told the New York Post he “wasn’t having it.  He threatened to pull out of the show if Chris was involved, so BET dropped Chris.”

Brown’s rep was quick to step up, issuing a statement saying, “That’s not true — he was never confirmed to perform.”

    Jay-Zee could have backed out- no one understood what he was singing anyway.

    I think Chris Brown would have done a better job than Beyonce & Jay Z put together. I’ve never been a Jay Z fan, but every since he made the comment about C.B.performing that made me lose likings 4 him period. Jay Z’s performance was totally WHACK!! Right along with Beyonce!! I don’t know what the hell neither 1 of them was saying.. He look like he was finna eat the mic and she had a big ass horse carriage outfit on.. Neither 1 of them said R.I.P mike, word 2 Jay Z: u’ll never be like mike.. U have 2 lie about ur age just 2 keep ur young crowd, mike was 50 and he kept all ages of crowd.. Mike will always be in my heart!!! I love u mike & R.I.P…

    Oh please daveptip! A song titled with DEATH isnt appropriate for a tribute to a man that just died. His comment was whack and so was his performance. He is also a WOMAN BEATER, just go to youtube and watch him beat that girl that he paid not to file charges. He is POS and needs to STFU.
