Karrueche Tran recently sat down with Madame Noire to speak on the good, the bad and the ugly.
She first talks about how her acting career has relaunched after her breakup with Chris Brown. She says she’s determined to be viewed by society as more than just Chris Brown’s ex girlfriend.
“Want to be able to identify myself and define myself, calling somebody Chris Brown’s girlfriend is kind of rude, you know what I’m saying? I’m more than just an ex girlfriend or girlfriend, there’s more to me. Now that I’m working more and doing more things, people are starting to realize that now I think.”
She also talks about hiring more security for the BET Awards because of the incident that happened between Chris and Karrueche a few weeks ago at a club, when Chris allegedly tried to force his way back into K’s life.
She also says that the negativity that comes with constantly being compared to Rihanna has been the hardest.
“Yesterday I went to the BET Awards and I had a silver wig and they were like ‘omg Rihanna did that first, you suck’ I’m like …okay … If I cough they’ll be like omg Rihanna coughed, you coughed I’m like come on! People look for the negative in everything and it sucks because I’m trying to build my career and do my own thing and it’s like they have just people waiting for something to happen or for that moment to roast me.”
She doesn’t think she’s ready to date anyone and doesn’t think she wants to date anyone in the industry again. She then reveals something that may be shocking to a few people
“I don’t think I’ve ever told anybody this but my father is gay,” Karrueche told us exclusively.”I think I never told anybody just because I don’t realize that that’s not necessarily normal. I live my life as me so it’s just like ‘oh that’s my dad.’ But when I tell people sometimes, they’re like, ‘Really? That’s kind of interesting.’ I knew from like middle school, even elementary school. I knew something was different and I don’t know how I even knew what gay was, being so young. I think when you’re younger you catch on to things and you kind of get the hang of it. I’ve just kind of always known and then as I grew older we had certain talks with my mom and it was just what it was.”
