Bobby Brown’s new biopic ‘The Bobby Brown Story’ aired a shocking
scene between his and Janet Jackson’s characters on Sept. 4. Read the
alleged events that went down, here.
A particular scene from Bobby Brown’s new biopic The Bobby Brown Story made Twitter gasp after the movie’s Sept. 4 premiere. During the first half of the BET biopic — the second part will air tomorrow — Bobby, played by Woody McClain, is revealed in bed post-lovemaking with Janet Jackson, played by Cree Davis. But the bliss doesn’t last for long after the two start to fight over Janet’s ex-husband from 1984-1985, James DeBarge.
Angry, Janet stands up to exit the room, so Bobby says, “You too good
to be in my room, then you can get the hell out of here!” He then
proceeds to throw her into the hotel hallway in just her undies, or so
the story goes, which Page Sixoriginally reported.
Understandably, Twitter freaked. Some fans thought the scene
disrespected Janet. “Anyone asking why they didn’t humiliate Janet
Jackson further on this Bobby Brown Story ain’t alright with me,” producer Jaime Primak Sullivan tweeted, and another shaken viewer wrote, “How BET gonna honor Janet Jackson on Black Girls Rock then violate her in Bobby Brown Story.” But many other fans were still processing the possibility of Whitney Houston’s ex dating Janet. “Bobby was dating Janet Jackson? Or just wanted to? I need answers,” activist Brittany Packnett asked. Bobby had already answered that question in his 2016 autobiography Every Little Step, in which he claims to have dated the “Escapade” singer. Radio host Charlamagne tha God
is up-to-date with his literature, because he tweeted, “Bobby Brown
smashing Janet Jackson wouldn’t be news to y’all if you actually read
the books I recommended to you.”
But Bobby’s story in print had a more shocking version of what allegedly
happened that night! While the biopic shows they fought over Janet’s
ex-husband, Bobby claims in his autobiography that Janet allegedly told
him, “My father won’t allow me to be with a black man,” and Bobby writes
afterwards, “Cursing the whole time, I pulled her out of the bed and
pushed her out of the room, naked.” You read that right — “Without a
stitch of clothing.” No underwear mentioned! Understandably, BET can’t show fully nude scenes on air.
