Karrueche Tran Back Together With Chris Brown, Lands First Cover

Karrueche Tran and Chris Brown have reunited and gotten back together just as Chris’s ex snagged her very first magazine cover.

Looks like Karrueche’s trip to Paris to visit Chris during his Carpe Diem tour was more than just a business meeting.

Sources are revealing that Kae and Chris are indeed a couple once again, and Rihanna is back out of the picture.

The news became official when Tran’s celeb pal Christina Milian appeared on the Wendy Williams Show.

“She’s his girlfriend,” Milian said in reference to her BFF and Chris. “They have the right to handle it how they want. Karrueche is a sweetheart and I think they make a great couple. I do love her. She’s a really good friend of mine.”

As for RiRi, another source claims that the “friends” are still on good terms but just need some time apart from each other.

“He ain’t talked to Rihanna in two or three days,” one source said. “They giving each other some space but they cool. They good.”

It looks like Tran used Breezy for the free publicity and still managed to get a hold of his heart as well.

Many Team Breezy fans speculated that Tran wasn’t good for the “Don’t Wake Me Up” singer because she didn’t have her own career and she was using Brown as her “meal ticket.”

Well this time around she has used her boo’s famous name and launched her own career with her The Kill clothing line and even landing her first magazine cover.

“Today I shot my first cover… Pretty cool!” Tran tweeted along with some pics from behind the scenes of the shoot.

In one of the sneak peek pics she is dressed in an Alexander Wang dress along with an edgy plum lipstick.

Olori Swank, who has done several shots for Keyshia Cole and Trey Songz, was Kae’s photographer for the shoot proving just how powerful celebrity friends can be.

Most models and celebrities will definitely have to work their way up the ranks before they get to be on the other side of Swank’s camera, but Karr has already earned her spot there by having nothing more than celebrity friends (and a boyfriend) and a pretty face.

Perhaps she really is building her own Kim Kardashian-like empire?

Let’s face it. She’s a gorgeous girl with long flowing hair, a clothing line that leaves a lot to be desired, celebrity buddies making her relevant in the media, and an egotistical boyfriend who’s in the music business.

Kimmy K must be giving classes on how to use men to obtain your own fame and fortune, and Tran must have graduated as valedictorian.

Sources revealed that ever since Mrs. Kae found her own grind Breezy has been texting her non-stop.

“[Chris] talks to Karrueche everyday by text and Kae is holding it down for him,” the source revealed. “Karrueche can’t wait for him to finish his tour. She be telling him to hurry up home and sh** like that so that’s what time it is…”

Well for those of you who had already placed your bets on the “Diamonds” songstress it’s time for you to pay up. Team Karrueche is victorious once again.

 

Independent journalism still matters.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
