Chris Brown, school of Ike member, modeling a…ahem…wifebeater.
At last night’s BET Awards Grammy Awards, this story developed rapidly right as last night’s Grammy Awards were set to begin. And by the show’s end, it was the sidebar that became the main news attraction, especially since M.I.A. didn’t spill any ambionic fluids on stage as many hoped.
