Here’s What Chris Brown Had to Say About the Petition Fighting to Ban His South Africa Concerts

Chris Brown delivered a cheeky response to a petition seeking to ban him from performing in South Africa later this year. See what he said.

According to the petition, the group wants the concert’s promoters and South African government to “reconsider” having Brown perform a pair of shows at Johannesburg’s FNB Stadium in mid-December. “When I saw the news that Chris Brown was coming to South Africa, I was shocked and deeply disappointed,” Women for Change executive director Sabina Walter said to the BBC. Walter added: “When someone like Chris Brown is given a platform in a country where GBV is at crisis levels, it sends a damaging message — that fame and power outweigh accountability.”
