He lost his virginity when he was eight years old, to a
local girl who was 14 or 15.
Seriously?
"Yeah, really. Uh-huh." He grins and chuckles during an interview
with The Guardian.
"It's different in the country." Brown grew up
with a great gang of boy cousins, and they watched so much porn that he was
raring to go. "By that point, we were already kind of like hot to trot,
you know what I'm saying? Like, girls, we weren't afraid to talk to them; I
wasn't afraid. So, at eight, being able to do it, it kind of preps you for the
long run, so you can be a beast at it. You can be the best at it."
Now 24, he doesn't want to say how many women he's slept
with: "But you know how Prince had a lot of girls back in the day? Prince
was, like, the guy. I'm just that, today. But most women won't have any
complaints if they've been with me. They can't really complain. It's all
good."
By 12, he knew he wanted to be a singer. "I drew a lot
of inspiration from the Ginuwines, the Ushers, the Michael Jacksons, the James
Browns, Sam Cooke. I was never afraid to take those steps or cross those
boundaries of trying to be equal to those guys. I never doubted myself, and I
thought if I'm going to do it, I've just got to work hard."
He describes "the Rihanna incident" as
"probably the biggest wake-up call for me. I had to stop acting like a little teenager, a crazy, wild
young guy."
