Viral rumor debunked: Chris Brown didn’t give disabled fan $10,000 or a refund

A recent meet-and-greet with Chris Brown is causing a stir on the Internet, but not for the usual reasons.

The singer’s infamous post-concert meet-ups have made headlines in recent years. He was criticized for charging fans $1,000 to meet and take a photo with him. They have also caused chaos in some relationships, with disgruntled partners leaving their lovers after taking couples photos with Breezy.

However, a recent meet and greet gained popularity online after a user on X (Twitter) went viral. The June 30 post, which has been viewed over three million times, claims that Chris Brown refunded a disabled fan’s meet and greet ticket and gave her a huge cash gift.

“This woman paid $1,111 for a meet and greet with Chris Brown,” the post reads. “When he saw her, he gave her the money back and gave her an additional $10,000 and these beautiful pictures.”

Chris Brown fan rejects viral story

Although the story went viral, it is not true. The woman in the photos has come forward to explain what happened at the Chris Brown concert.

“I’m just here to clarify something,” she began, then explained that she has been attending Brown’s concerts for about a decade and they have “built a great relationship.”

She continued: “What I am not okay with is strangers on the internet using my face and exploiting my disability for likes and clicks while spreading misinformation.”

The woman said that while Chris Brown has occasionally “given me upgrades to my seats or free tickets,” she covers the costs herself. “I support Chris as a brand and as an individual, so if you see me at a show or a meet and greet, please know that I paid for my ticket. I paid to get there.”

She also accused the original author of the post of spreading the narrative “that people with disabilities don’t have jobs and that we don’t function well in society.”

“This pushing around is taking away everything I’ve done personally to get here,” she explained. “It’s taking away the hours I work. It’s taking away the things I sacrificed to do the extra hours because I wanted to treat myself.”

Chris Brown has not publicly commented on the drama. However, the fan joked that she would gladly use a cash app as a little excuse.
