Orlando Brown Recalls Being Bailed Out Of Jail By Zeus Network

Orlando Brown will star in the new Zeus Network show “Bad Boys Texas,” and during its premiere, he had an odd story to tell. Moreover, the former Disney Channel star reflected on how the network bailed him out of jail following his arrest. Also, he said that he isn’t even a “bad boy” and remarked on being known more for his controversy than for his acting career these days. In addition, and in disgusting detail, he recalled doing his… necessities in the same toilet that he would make noodles out of while incarcerated. “Bad Boys Texas” premieres on Sunday (April 23), and will likely feature more interesting sit-downs with Brown.

In other news, the 35-year-old recently became the latest celebrity to give their take on the infamous Oscars slap. Furthermore, Orlando Brown stated that Chris Rock mostly just milked the issue for attention and profit, especially when he had “the right check” to do so during his stand-up special. Not only that, but he also took issue with Rock speaking on Will Smith’s “selective outrage.” Beyond that disagreement, Brown believes the two needed to have a deeper conversation as individuals concerning what went down.

Orlando Brown Speaks On jail Time & Being Bailed Out

Unfortunately for the “That’s So Raven” actor, his career over the past several years took a nose dive as fans expressed concern for his mental health, following various arrests, wild statements, and public controversies. In fact, Orlando Brown was ordered to undergo a mental evaluation after an arrest for alleged attempted assault. His increasing controversies and behavior covered by the media is actually something he addressed a couple of years ago. It still might hold true today.

“A lot of drinking is what happened,” he remarked in an attempt to explain some of his choices and statements. “I was drinking a lot. I just found myself in a dark place because I couldn’t really find everybody. It’s kinda like looking for your keys, when you stop looking, they’re right there type of deal. I started to realize what was in front of me. From there, now I’m good.” Regardless of your take on all this, return to HNHH for the latest on Orlando Brown.

Orlando Brown Makes Bold Claim About Oscar Slap Response

In 2023, people are still talking about the “Oscar Slap”. Over a year has passed since Will Smith slapped Chris Rock live on stage at the Oscars. However, that has not stopped everyone from sharing their opinion about the incident, responses to it, the deeper meaning of the slap. Every single angle that could be possibly conceived of has been covered. Last month, Marlon Wayans even announced he was producing a documentary on the slap.

Many celebrities have shared their thoughts on the incident. People like Serena Williams and Sheree Zampino have advocated for Smith’s apology. Chris Rock’s brother says Will Smith never reached out. With an incident that public, everyone is going to have something to say about it. However, while some views are considered insightful, others are seen as people inserting themselves into the situation.

“He Waited For The Right Check”

In a recent interview, Orlando Brown shared his thoughts on the slap, specifically Chris Rock’s response to it. “I don’t mind Chris milking it, but a’ight, you milked it,” Brown argued. When the interviewer responded by saying that Rock “waited a while” to respond, Brown dropped his biggest claim. “He was waiting for the right check.” Brown went on to explain that in his eyes, Rock should have simply reached out to Smith and had a conversation about the incident. He also took issue with Rock’s comments about Smith’s “selective outrage”, which he saw as unnecessary and again, milking the issue for profit.

However, Rock waiting for a paid opportunity to speak out was the main crux of Brown’s argument. Rock was reportedly paid $40 million to produce a Netflix stand-up title Selective Outrage. While it was widely expected that Rock would address the slap in the special, Netflix reportedly edited out jokes about Smith. However, some content remained and the special got its name from comments Rock made about Smith. Selective Outrage was Rock’s first major public comment about the incident and if reports are true, he was paid handsomely to make them. However, Brown’s comments show that we are far from done with talking about what occurred at the 2022 Oscars.

Disney Star Orlando Brown To Undergo Mental Evaluation After Arrest

That’s So Raven star Orlando Brown will be undergoing a mental evaluation following his latest arrest. The check will determine whether he’s fit to stand trial in his Ohio criminal case regarding aggravated menacing, a first-degree misdemeanor in the state. Depending on the results of the test, Brown could do a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity. TMZ cites Brown’s lawyer filing documents in court for the request.

Police originally arrested Brown while responding to a call regarding a fight in progress between 2 men. The victim claims Brown came at him while wielding a knife and hammer. According to the police report, he “believed Orlando was going to assault him.” He also told police that Brown had been going “crazy.” At the time, Brown was reportedly living under the same roof as the alleged victim. The victim also helped land Brown a movie role, which he has since lost due to the arrest.

Brown has dealt with a myriad of legal issues in recent years. Back in 2016, he was charged with domestic battery, obstruction of justice, drug possession with intent to sell, and possession of contraband in jail. He later appeared on Dr. Phil in 2018. During the episode, he made several viral erroneous claims, such as being the son of Michael Jackson. He also admitted to struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.

“A lot of drinking is what happened,” Brown said, explaining his behavior. “I was drinking a lot. I just found myself in a dark place because I couldn’t really find everybody. It’s kinda like looking for your keys, when you stop looking, they’re right there type of deal. I started to realize what was in front of me. From there, now I’m good.”

Orlando Brown is currently on house arrest as the legal proceedings continue. He posted a $25,000 bond, last week, to get out of jail. Brown starred as Eddie Thomas on That’s So Raven, which aired on Disney Channel from 2003 to 2007.

Orlando Brown Arrest: Actor Loses Movie Role In Wake Of DV Incident

What appears to have been a brief return to the entertainment industry for Orlando Brown has quickly crumbled before him. According to a new report from TMZ, the That’s So Raven alum has been fired from an upcoming film after being arrested for domestic violence earlier this week.

The incident took place on Thursday (December 22). At the time, Ohio police came to help resolve a fight between two men. Since the actor’s arrest, his victim, Matthew Sanders, has spoken out about the situation.

Brown was due to star in a film called Up The Score, which Sanders is directing and producing. He tells the outlet that he wanted the former Disney star to be a part of the project not only due to their friendship but also because the latter believes the former to be “extremely talented.”

The 35-year-old entertainer moved to his director’s home in Lima in November. The film project is currently in preproduction, and won’t begin shooting until the new year. Before this week’s fight, there were apparently no major issues between the two.

Sanders recounting states that Brown “came at him with a broken-off knife blade and a hammer.” Additionally, he notes that he believes his friend is struggling with mental illness. At times, he thinks the California native comes off as “out of touch with reality.” Ultimately, he’s most upset by not helping the child star with his comeback.

In Up The Score, he was due to appear in a secondary role. The film is a dramedy about a military man who, after meeting someone on social media, leaves his family only to fall victim to some serious catfishing.

Presently, Sanders has decided that Brown is no longer allowed to live with him. If he seeks mental health help, a decision to recast him in the movie might be made. However, seeing as filming begins in the near future, it’s highly unlikely we’ll see him appear.

Orlando Brown Arrested In Ohio, “That’s So Raven” Star Smiles In His Mug Shot

Childhood stardom sure sounds like a dream come true. However, many past Disney Channel stars continue to prove that working for the Magic Kingdom doesn’t always result in a fairytale ending. Usually, names like Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato make headlines with their antics. Most recently, though, a former That’s So Raven cast member is giving them a run for their money.

Orlando Brown, best known for playing Eddie Thomas on the sitcom, was taken into custody on Thursday (December 22). According to reports from TMZ, the Lima Police Department got a call about “a fight in progress” yesterday. This led them to the actor’s house.

Earlier today (December 23), further details reveal that the altercation took place between him and a family member or other resident of the home. Additionally, we now know that Brown has been living in Ohio for over a month.

As you may recall, this is far from his first run-in with the law. In 2018, he was behind bars almost every month of the year. His charges ranged from burglary and domestic battery to drug possession and resisting a public officer. That same year, he made waves with a new tattoo – a portrait of former co-star Raven Symoné’s face on his chest.

In September of that year, Brown spent some time behind bars after pleading no contest. The charges he was facing at the time include attempting to change the locks on a friend’s restaurant, as well as possession of narcotics.

As a result of his antics, the 35-year-old sat down with Dr. Phil McGraw for an intervention-style interview. He opted to wear snake-eye contacts during their chat, making claims that he was “locked [up] for no reason and set up.”

He additionally made it known that he had no desire to “dedicate another 90 days” to treatment for his addictions. Rather, his plans were to “jump back into that life [of fatherhood and] figure out who everybody is.”

However, viewers couldn’t help but notice that Brown gave McGraw incorrect names and ages of his family in the interview. Surprisingly, he also told the host he has a 2-year-old “on the way” with his wife, Danielle Brown.

Since then, the embattled actor has publicly reflected on his past comments, even offering an apology and thanking Dr. Phil for “opening the door to show people that actually think they don’t need help to go get help.”

In August of this year, Brown admitted that he’s been “on the hideout” ever since the footage aired. He also told Cam Capone, “I’m just waiting to die at this point. But realistically, I have goals.”

Bow Wow Responds To Bizzare Comments Made By Orlando Brown: “Tweaked Out… On Dem Drugs!”

Bow Wow like mike

In the last decade, every interview with former That’s So Raven star Orlando Brown has gone viral because of his wild stories or comments. Admittedly, Brown has had struggles with drug addiction which more than likely contributes to his erratic and blunt behavior. But nonetheless, social media still goes crazy whenever he does an interview.

A clip from a recent interview with Cornbread TV, Brown spoke on a list of celebrities from Raven Symone, Nick Cannon, and Mariah Carrey, but his comments about Lil Bow Wow is what really got people’s attention.

“When’s the last time you watched 106 & Park,” the interviewer asked Brown. “The last time it was hot!” he responded. “When Lil Bow Wow was on there,” he added.

The interviewer asked Brown if he had a problem with Lil Bow Wow, to which the 34-year-old actor responded “I ain’t got a problem with Lil Bow Wow. Lil Bow Wow got some bomb ass p*ssy.” The room went silent following Brown’s bizarre comment and had the interviewer looking around to see if anybody else just heard what Brown had just said.

After the clip went viral, many could tell that Brown was most likely on drugs again and said that the former child star needs help. Bow Wow caught wind of the clip, and instead of angrily responding to Brown, agreed with the consensus that the actor might actually need some help.

“Dawg im just now seeing it. I been wrapped up w work. I be chilling … off the grid not all on the net then ill look up and be trending… they know who names they gotta say to go viral for 24 hours. shit be crazy,” Bow Wow tweeted, responding to one user.

In a response to another user, Bow Wow said “Tweaked out… but you know dude really need help na im sayn? Thats why we aint trippin on em. Nobody taking him serious. Its sad because he had potential to be great. Its sad. Dem drugs!”
