Chris Brown: Healthy Risk Taing Rolde Model

Christopher Maurice "Beezy" Brown (born May 5, 1989) is an American singer, songwriter, rapper, dancer, and actor. Born in Tappahannock, Virginia, Brown taught himself to sing and dance at a young age and was involved in his church choir and several local talent shows. In 2004, he signed with Jive Records, and released his self-titled debut album the following year. The album peaked at number two on the US Billboard 200 chart, and featured the hit single "Run It!", which topped the Billboard Hot 100, making Brown the first male artist as a lead to have his debut single top the chart since Diddy in 1997. Chris Brown was certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Chris Brown may not be a role model for healthy risk taking to others, but he definitely is to me. Being an artist, Chris has gone through a LOT. However, he’s gotten through all of it, with a few healthy risks of coarse. Specifically with the Rihanna incident in 2009, Chris Brown’s taken some major risks in his career that all lead to the same outcome; success. The message his risks send, especially to his fans, is that no matter what happens, you should never give up. No matter what happens, never stop progressing with life. On March 5, 2009, Breezy was charged with felony assault and making criminal threats. On April 6st 2009, he pleaded not guilty to one count of assault and one count of making criminal threats. On July 20th 2009, he uploaded a two-minute long video on his official YouTube page apologizing to fans and Rihanna for the assault, stating that the incident was his "deepest regret" and saying that he had apologized to Rihanna multiple times and "accepts full responsibility". In the video, Chris said he wanted to speak out earlier about the case but was advised by his attorney not to until the ”legal ramifications” were done with. On June 22nd 2009, Brown pleaded guilty to a felony and accepted a plea deal of community labor, five years' formal probation
