Chris Brown's scheduled appearance on The Daily Show with Trevor Noah was canceled at the last minute this week. The
26-year-old was bumped from the Tuesday night line-up and replaced by
TV star Nick Cannon without any explanation from producers. The
re-scheduling comes hot on the heels of Brown being barred from
traveling to New Zealand and Australia as a result of his violent past.
Brown's
planned appearance on Comedy Central show had reportedly caused
disagreements among staff members including several writers and
producers.
The Daily Beast reported that some writers took issue with Brown's pattern of aggressive behaviour.
The
website also revealed that staff met on Monday for an 'all-hands'
meeting where host Trevor Noah said he hoped the Brown interview could
be used as an opportunity to candidly discuss the subject of domestic
violence.
As Dailymail.com reported in April, Noah, 31, was himself witness to horrific abuse when he was younger in South Africa.
His
grandmother revealed that Noah's father shot his mother in the face and
tried to hunt the comedian down, threatening to kill him in a fit of
rage.
