Despite his flip out on "Good Morning America" on Tuesday, Chris Brown will still be performing on "Dancing With the Stars" next week as planned. It was touch and go for a while with the network, with viewers threatening not to watch the show if Brown was a guest.
and now...
Chris Brown is publicly apologizing for losing his temper backstage following an interview and performance on "Good Morning America" on Tuesday. He claims he got angry because the interview went beyond the "talking points" his people submitted to the show, something ABC News has denied. Brown emphasized that he did not hurt anyone backstage at "GMA" but had to release "the anger that I had inside of me."
Former NFL great, Lawrence Taylor, has been sentenced to six years' probation after pleading guilty to sexual misconduct and patronizing an underage prostitute. The teen girl in the center of the case was in court for the sentencing, but the now 17 year old was not allowed to speak. Outside the courthouse, the girl denied she was a prostitute and said another man forced her to go into Taylor's Montebello hotel room by punching her in the face.
In other football player news....
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver, Dez Bryant, was issued a criminal trespass warning for wearing baggy pants that exposed his underwear and buttocks to patrons at the NorthPark Shopping Mall on Saturday night. Off-duty officers reportedly asked Bryant and his friends to pull up their pants, but the NFL player responded with profanity. Dallas police issued a statement saying: "The outcome could have been avoided if the parties involved had simply complied with instructions given by the involved officers." Bryant must hang out at the mall because he's had several incidents there before including a "major disturbance" at a restaurant involving a woman, a parking violation and cutting in line at a store.

Jessica is originally from Marietta, GA! I am probably one of the only real "Atlantans" left! I love Atlanta because there is always something going on, and it's just close enough to the beach to get away for a weekend.
