Just a day after Chris Brown sat down for a tell-all interview with CNN’s Larry King Live. The disgraced R&B crooner’s mother/manager, Joyce Hawkins, is speaking out on the subject.
“I just want to say from the bottom of my heart thank you for your continued support. I’m sorry I wasn’t allowed to speak to anyone as this case was on going. I can now say this has been the most painful moment in my entire life, but knowing that you were still standing by Chris side in his time of need made this a little easier for us,” Hawkins wrote in a blog Thursday. “Because of all your prayers God brought him through. I just want to say God has never failed me and never will. All moms and dads please stand by your children and pray for their goodness each and everyday. Chris and I love you so much, as the tears fall from my eyes and the pain lingers in my heart I still say thank you God, thank you thank you almighty God. If any of you wonder why I continue to speak of God it’s because I know no other way. I made a promise to him I would never be ashamed of him no matter where I am or who I talk to. You see this whole thing isn’t about Chris it’s about God. He wants to show all of you the goodness of him through Chris. Chris will be addressing all of his fans very soon. We love you so much and so does God.”

She added, “Chris has a bizarre power over her. She still loves him and he knows it. In her eyes, he’s a god. Even after all this time, and even after what he did, it’s not diminished.”

Chris Brown was reportedly spotted making out with model Amber Rose, the on-and-off girlfriend of rapper Kanye West, at the July 4 White Party thrown by Diddy and Ashton Kutcher in Beverly Hills over the weekend.
Spies tell The NY Daily News that although Brown arrived at the party with singer Teyana Taylor, an 18-year-old Rihanna look-alike, he quickly hooked up with Rose.
“Diddy announced the deejay would do a tribute to Michael Jackson,” says a spy.
“Chris did an amazing impression of Michael’s moonwalk. It wasn’t long before he was dancing with Amber.”
“They were holding hands and making out in the shadows,” adds another witness. “She had her hand on his leg.”
Although a Los Angeles judge has ordered that Chris Brown not to go within 50 yards of his former girlfriend Rihanna after he recently pleaded guilty to beating her in a fight last winter, the exes want to do away with the stay away order so that they can “work on their friendship.”
“They think it’s unnecessary and ridiculous,” a mutual friend blabbed to The NY Daily News last week. “After [the proceeding], Ri and Chris talked on the phone for almost an hour and really worked at becoming friends. They’re solid now.”
