Bobby: Radio Station "Lied," Didn't Pay A Penny of Bail

Bobby Brown says that getting sprung from jail was totally his -- and his friends' -- prerogative, and that the radio station that said it bailed him out is just flat-out lying.
Bobby Brown speaks.
On the nationally syndicated "Tom Joyner Morning Show," Bobby said the arrangement -- in which Brown had his $19,000 bail paid -- in exchange for a week of on-air appearances -- was a figment of Hot 99.5's imagination. "That didn't happen," he said on the phone from Los Angeles. "They didn't pay it. A bunch of my friends got together and got me out."

Brown's lawyer, Phaedra Parks, clarified a bit. She told Joyner that she had, in fact, spoken to Hot 99.5 about this deal, but that "they never paid a penny," and that Bobby's brother actually brought the money.

Today, Hot 99.5 posted an email between its program director and Parks, describing a deal in which Brown would be paid $27,638 to "work for" the station. The former New Edition star spent three nights behind bars last week in Masschusetts for failing to pay child support, and then hung up on station DJs ten minutes into their first on-air chat.

He's lying. If his so called "friends" had the money to bail his monkey a** out of jail, why didn't they lend him the money to pay his child support?
When he gets out, he has dinner with Whitney and Bobbi. We know he didn't pay the tab.
He's trying to get out of paying the radio station back. Yes, they were very stupid paying his bail and if he stiffs them, it's their own fault. Everyone knew he didn't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of. Whitney's paid every bill since he got her down that aisle. Hell, why do you think he kept her a** high all the time?

So Many Uneducated Posts & Hypocrites:  1803 days ago

TMZ reported the other day that Bobby paid back the Radio Station himself. Seems to me TMZ doesn't get their facts straight before printing stuff. WTF

First off Bobby Brown is a no good son a of b*tch. Who gets that far behind in child support? And then someone (Kane w/ hot 99.5) who used to be a fan of Bobby's forks over $19,000 to him for him work for his radio show and Bobby wouldnt do it? I mean what else can he possibly do to make money otherwise. Being an everyday listener to this radio station, I am glad that that piece of sh*t isn't coming to DC! Cause we sure dont want him here!! And anyone who actually believes this lying bastard then check out hot995.com to get the real story. And if anyone wants to believe his called attorney has an lick of intelligence then you are in the same boat as the two of them! I mean seriously, with what money can he afford an attorney?? He needs stop spending so much time lying about a great radio station that was trying to help him and he needs to spend the time and money on his damn kids!!

He's Boring now:  1803 days ago

Now how could a major radio station simply make up a story like that, and than he miracously gets out of jail shortly after they make the claim. If he had these friends in the first place, than why even bother with a radio station or any kind of arrangement?

Oh thats right when you deal with people who are using, logic and truth goes out the window and whatever bs of the moment arises becomes fact to them...well not to the rest of us Bobby Brown.

Keep on using and doing what you have been doing, as Dr Phil might ask you, "hows that working for you so far"?

Treatment, counseling, good diet and exercise, and maybe some medication that is prescribed might work for you better than the routine you have been following.

Remember the 3 choices should you not change:

1. Jail---you been there
2. Nuthouse---heading for there
3. Death---comes without announcement

This guy is the biggest pathological liar ever! No wonder Whitney left him. Hot 99.5 is not some backwoods station that would just make up a story like this. Bobby Brown seems to be getting crazier without Whitney to give him money for drugs. Leaving him was the best thing she has ever done.

Moi:  1803 days ago

Oh Hot99.5 didnt pay it?????

So how come Bobby and his 'attorney' paid the money back??!!! What is wrong with this dude? Anyway he did say he was Bipolar right? He is just always lying... So if they didnt pay it why did he even start a conversation with the radio station that purpotedly didnt pay him?? This guy is just a loser... I am sorry that his kids have a dead beat for a dad!!! LOSER
