“I would love to have #ChrisBrown on, but it’ll be a lot of backlash,” she admitted to Vulture, acknowledging the criticism that still follows the singer over his history of legal troubles, several allegations of v!olence, and his 2009 a$$ault on then-girlfriend #Rihanna. Still, Sherri insisted she isn’t deterred by potential pushback, adding, “Sometimes it comes with the territory.”

Sherri explained that her goal isn’t to grill guests but to give them space to share their perspective. “I don’t have a journalism degree,” she said, pointing out that she took a similar approach earlier this year when she interviewed #JonathanMajors amid his own controversy. “So it would be completely off-brand for me to be going, ‘What about this and what about that?’ I wanted to hear his side of the story.”

Sherri believes CB deserves the same grace she extended to Jonathan, even if inviting him on could divide viewers.
