GMA‘s Robin Roberts Explains What Really Happened With Chris Brown: ‘I Was Shocked’

Good Morning America‘s Robin Roberts took time Wednesday morning to talk about Chris Brown, the R&B star who seemed somewhat less than thrilled with his interview with Roberts Tuesday. “I was shocked like everybody else,” she said.

Appearing on GMA–he hoped–to talk about his new CD and to perform Yeah 3X, Roberts asked about Brown’s legal problems stemming from the beating he delivered to his ex-girlfriend Rihanna.

Brown apparently thinks people shouldn’t still be interested in that.

GMA showed the smashed window in Brown’s dressing room and even a cooler they say the singer threw in a fit of post-interview rage. And yes, Roberts says, Brown was informed ahead of time he would be asked about Rihanna. Roberts said she thought Brown was “joking” when he seemed irritated during the interview, and said the show’s extended an invitation to have him back on GMA (windowless dressing room next time?).
