AceShowbiz - With his album coming out on December 8, Chris Brown is making his presence more apparent by agreeing to appear in several talk shows, even if it means he has to talk about the infamous incident with Rihanna. The latest show he is going to visit will be ABC's "20/20".
The singer had done a pre-taped interview with co-anchor Robin Roberts last weekend, discussing his assault of the former girlfriend. According to Associated Press, it is an "in-depth" talk which will air on December 11. ABC spokesman Jeffrey Schneider has confirmed that Brown will not perform live and clips from the interview will air on "Good Morning America".
Chris Brown is on probation after pleading guilty for assaulting Rihanna back in February. Rihanna herself has come out of her hiding after the incident, promoting her new album "Rated R" and conducting interviews that talk about the assault. She also appeared on ABC last month, doing one-on-one with Diane Sawyer.
ABC recently came under fire for canceling Adam Lambert's appearance last minute due to the singer's sexually-charged performance at 2009 American Music Awards. However, an ABC insider told Page Six, "[Lambert] was not canceled over a gay kiss. He showed himself to be unpredictable on live TV. ...Chris Brown's interview was booked way before Adam Lambert took to the stage. It is to give him a chance to respond to Rihanna's interview. The possibility of him performing a song will be worked out next week."
