Toure: CoverGirl Nixed Chris Brown’s BET Awards Appearance

Rolling Stone writer and former BET personality Toure is claiming that CoverGirl was behind Chris Brown not appearing at Sunday’s BET Awards in Los Angeles, since they are a sponsor on the station and didn’t want Brown associated with the their product endorsed by the ‘Run It’ singer’s assault victim Rihanna. Toure writes on his Twitter:

Real talk: Chris Brown was going to perform but Covergirl and Rihanna nixed that.

@BarkBiteBlog Covergirl is a BET sponsor. Rihanna is a Covergirl spokesmodel. Thus, they have some say.

@CHATSTV: I can see why Rihanna wouldn’t want to let CB use the distraction of an MJ tribute to launch his comeback…

@CHATSTV: CoverGirl must protect their girl and their brand and cannot advertise on a show that bolsters CB’s career.

@DitiSays I cannot be mad at Covergirl for blocking CB. No way they can pay to be on a show he’s part of. Rihanna’s their girl.

@Missinfo You’re right, Jay-Z had nothing to do with Chris Brown not being on the BET Awards. It was CoverGirl. And rightly so.
