Chris Brown Claims He Lost His Virginity At 8; Talks About 'Rihanna Incident'

Chris Brown revealed in an interview that he lost his virginity when he was eight-years-old to a young girl of 14 or 15.

“It’s different in the country,” Brown explained.

Brown explained that, when he lost his virginity, he had already been so exposed to porn that he felt ready. He has no regrets, and even says that starting sexual relations that young just gave him more time to perfect it.

“By that point, we were already kind of hot to trot, you know what I’m saying? Like, girls, we weren’t afraid to talk to them; I wasn’t afraid. So, at eight, being able to do it, it kind of preps you for the long run, so you can be a beast at it. You can be the best at it,” Brown told The Guardian.

Brown goes on to compare himself to Prince, saying that he is just as much of a ladies magnet, and that “most women… can’t really complain” about their time with him.

Later in the interviewer, Brown addresses his 2009 arrest for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna – an event that arguably changed the course of his career, but he does not speak about it in terms of how it affects his relationship with women (fans or otherwise).

“That was probably, like, one of the most troubling times in my life, because I was 18 or 19, so being able to feel the hatred from more adult people, you don’t understand it at the time, because you made a mistake,” Brown explains.

Instead, he says that his arrest and consequent public media shaming only pushed him to become a better artist so that he could “prove people wrong.” “So from there it wasn’t really a problem. I just focused on what was necessary, abiding by all the stuff I had to do legally and professionally,” Brown said.

Brown does, however, admit that the “incident” forced him to grow up and mature. “[It was] probably the biggest wake-up call for me. I had to stop acting like a little teenager, a crazy, wild young guy,” Brown said.

In the interview, Brown insisted that he has done his best to abide by his probation, and that reported scuffles with Drake and other brushes with the law have been either acts of defense or manufactured by the paparazzi. Brown feels victimized by a vindictive media and a harsh legal system.

“They want me to be the example. Young black kids don’t have the fairer chances. You can see Lindsay Lohan in and out of court every day, you see Charlie Sheen, whoever else, do what they want to do… People think I just walk around as the aggressor, this mad black guy, this angry, young, troubled kid, but I’m not. I’m more and more laid-back,” Brown stated.

Brown is promoting his next album, X, which he hopes will bring him closer to his two goals: wealth and selling a record-breaking number of albums. X is set for a Nov 19 release.
