Chris Brown went on ABC’s Good Morning American on Tuesday to promote his new album, F.A.M.E., released that day. But when host Robin Roberts asked him a question about his 2009 guilty plea for beating then-girlfriend Rihanna, Brown got mad and threw a temper tantrum in his dressing room, breaking a window.
We used Social Radar to measure conversations around Brown’s new CD F.A.M.E. compared to the GMA outburst.

On a recent episode of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy and Kevin Rose (creator of Digg.com and guest of the show) decided to run an experiment to create a “Twitter Rockstar”. The idea was simple: they pick an audience member, send a “tweet” out to all of their followers linking to this audience member’s Twitter account, and announce it on TV.
Their purpose was to take an unknown and unfollowed Twitter user and expose him to millions of people with the intent of creating thousands of followers for him and increasing his popularity instantly. It worked, as he received over 10,000 followers before the show even aired.
Today, he sits at about 33,000 followers. The question is, how long did his “15 minutes of fame” really last? Let’s take a look at the conversations.
