Brandy says her fake marriage killed her career :(


In a preview for Brandy's Behind The Music, the r&b superstar, actress, model, reality star Brandy Norwood opens up about her fake marriage with Robert Smith, saying "The lie about being married was the fall of my career".

Previously the singer told Tyra Branks “I felt the need to lie about it because at the time I was 23 years old, I had this good girl image...I felt the pressure of what people would think and disappointing little girls. The singer was outed by Smith, who she has a daughter named Sy’rai with, after she claimed she never really loved him.

glad she can admit this & move on with her stellar career <3

It didn't ruin Kim Kardashians career
ghostley 26th-Apr-2012 01:58 am (UTC)
But she actually got married, brandy never did
dottiehinkle 24th-Apr-2012 05:33 am (UTC)
Really cuz I doubt many ppl even know about it. Your careers been dead for over a decade and I'm sure it has more to do with the shit music you've put out and that time you ran someone over.
kindafunnysad 24th-Apr-2012 05:35 am (UTC)
i'm all about calling people out when they release shit music but brandy is not one of them so gtfo
likegunfire 24th-Apr-2012 05:36 am (UTC)
no offense but I'm not really sure you know what you're talking about :\
stevinmichael 24th-Apr-2012 05:37 am (UTC)
Pretty much. She had one major hit and a string of moderate hits, and they were years before her "fake marriage". Her career died because she didn't have the staying power and her music didn't evolve with the times.
likegunfire 24th-Apr-2012 05:42 am (UTC)
she had a lot of top 10 hits...
friarsfire 24th-Apr-2012 11:05 am (UTC)
Don't. You are so wrong...just don't.
bostongirl2003 24th-Apr-2012 05:40 am (UTC)
she got rear-ended, and it forced her car into the one in front of her, which sent that car into on-coming traffic and got the driver killed. Rebecca Gayheart's the one who actually ran over a kid.
akasha6915 24th-Apr-2012 05:44 am (UTC)
She has the biggest ironic stans on here, ever.
gonexforgotten 24th-Apr-2012 05:48 am (UTC)
But she didn't run someone over?
browniecakemix 24th-Apr-2012 05:48 am (UTC)
Dude, no. She's irrelevant and useless, but it's extremely heartless to refer to what happened as "that time she ran someone over" when that's not what happened and she was not at all at fault or even remotely in control of the situation.
bestcoast 24th-Apr-2012 06:37 am (UTC)
um no
jasmina12345 24th-Apr-2012 05:34 am (UTC)
LMAO I remember when she did that

it was so random and weird
medranochav 24th-Apr-2012 05:34 am (UTC)
her yellow eyes are disturbing.
thetrustoryofme maybe its just me.24th-Apr-2012 02:38 pm (UTC)
i always think of jar jar binks from those horrible star wars prequels when i see her. its all i can see.
stevinmichael 24th-Apr-2012 05:34 am (UTC)
If it helps you feel better about yourself, we can all pretend it was the "fake marriage".
rachelbojangles 24th-Apr-2012 05:34 am (UTC)
does anyone remember that brandy:special delivery show that was on mtv? documenting her pregnancy and birth.
genbu_no_miko24 24th-Apr-2012 05:34 am (UTC)

yeah <3 it was good but you could tell how sad she was during the whole thing
h0tfuss 24th-Apr-2012 05:39 am (UTC)
how so?
genbu_no_miko24 24th-Apr-2012 05:44 am (UTC)
yeah you can tell she didn't like how distant~ he kinda was with her.

bananasnrum 24th-Apr-2012 05:47 am (UTC)
Yes. And I remember most her mother "Oh my god, its a baby!"

mari_lyn00 24th-Apr-2012 09:44 am (UTC)
wasn't that where the fake sham marriage started?
aleronihead 24th-Apr-2012 02:43 pm (UTC)
Yup, I'm surprised more people here don't! I thought it was kind of a big deal when she suddenly got pregnant and "married"
speedychi 24th-Apr-2012 03:25 pm (UTC)
yyyyup
yousaidlog 24th-Apr-2012 04:36 pm (UTC)
omg yes. my childhood bff and i loved that shit.
welurklate 24th-Apr-2012 05:34 am (UTC)
I don't get why she needed to have a fake marriage, like why not just actually marry him?
likegunfire 24th-Apr-2012 05:37 am (UTC)
because she didn't love him
welurklate 24th-Apr-2012 05:39 am (UTC)
I mean, if it was all about perception for her at the time rather than love or whatever then actually get married, lying about it was just asking to get found out.
bostongirl2003 24th-Apr-2012 05:40 am (UTC)
I think she got pregnant and didn't want to have an abortion or actually marry the father, so they lied and said they got married in secret.
mi_nion 24th-Apr-2012 05:45 am (UTC)
because he wasn't divorced. IIRC he was separated and Brandy was actually the side piece that got knocked up. He left her and went back to his wife.
pistol_eyes 24th-Apr-2012 11:15 pm (UTC)
Maybe he didn't want to marry her
oceanhue 24th-Apr-2012 05:34 am (UTC)
WHAT THE FUCK? IT WAS A LIE? THIS IS NEWS TO ME. SHAME ON YOU BRANDY OMGAH

~unpopular opinion~ but I think that's the best version of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella.

never knew she was even married...
bostongirl2003 24th-Apr-2012 05:41 am (UTC)
she wasn't. She got pregnant and they told people that they had ~secretly gotten married.
s0nified 24th-Apr-2012 05:41 am (UTC)
to be fair, she really wasn't
jmonkey3152 24th-Apr-2012 05:40 am (UTC)
Lol oh yeah, then she tried to backtrack and said that even though it wasn't legal, it was a ~spiritual marriage~ or something?
simplychristina 24th-Apr-2012 06:06 am (UTC)
lol yes

....even though she had said in an interview that the breakup wasn't hard since she wasn't in love with him.
swt_lil_gal 24th-Apr-2012 09:41 am (UTC)
That line only works for Meredith Grey and Derek Sheppard
thetrustoryofme 24th-Apr-2012 02:40 pm (UTC)
agreed, even though they are legally married now in the show.
