With the release of FAME only a few days away, Chris Brown has been making his rounds; appearing at different listening parties, clubs, radio and television shows. He recently visited MTV to promote the release of his new album and of course the topic of his “leaked” nude picture came up. Rumors that Chris leaked his own naked picture in order to promote his new album started from the second the picture hit the internet. But according to Chris, he had no reason to let the world see his goodies in order to promote his album.

He told MTV: “Let me be honest with you. I didn’t want to put no pictures out; that’s not my intention. A lot of people were saying, ‘Yo, he leaked the pictures, he was trying to get promotion. For me, I was always a singer, so unless I’m planning on trying to do porn, I don’t think I’d want to just leak my wang out to the world before my album comes out.”

“It was disappointing to me that it was out, because I was like, ‘Man, now it’s gonna [look like] a gimmick behind it, and I don’t want a gimmick behind anything that I’m doing.”

Now that we know EVERYTHING (and I mean everything) about Chris Brown, he doesn’t have anymore insecurities, and says that everything is out on the table. “There’s nothing to be upset about, nothing to be angry … where I’m at creatively and mentally is great so I’m not gonna let anybody or any naysayer or hater mess that up … ’cause there’s no point, I’m … winning!”

Winning huh? Couldn’t have said it better myself!
