Usually when someone is trying to promote an upcoming show, or movie that is about to come out, they send out a press release or two, or give a few interviews to the press. But then there are those who are publicity innovators like, Lindsay Lohan, who promoted her last movie by getting locked up and going to rehab. And American Idol castoff Jessica Sierra who reminded us to watch Celebrity Rehab by getting locked up and getting sent to rehab.
Add R&B pop singer Bobby Brown to the list of innovators. The star of the reality show Being Bobby Brown, wanted to remind us all that he was going to be on the CMT reality show, Gone Country by getting arrested in Boston for possession of cocaine.
Last month police were called to the Holiday Inn Hotel in Brockton to break up a disturbance, and when they arrived on the scene, they were directed to Mr. Brown, who was being very Bobby-ish. Upon getting caught, he apparently asked the officer to “use discretion,” and not charge him with anything.
And I imagine that the cop started laughing, and said, “Use discretion and not charge you? What are you, on drugs? Oh that’s right, you are!”
Bobby Brown can be seen on Fridays on CMT’s Gone Country, along with Carnie Wilson, Dee Snider, Diana DeGarmo, Maureen McCormick, Julio Iglesias Jr., and Sisqo. For more information on the show, click here.
