DWTS Host: I'd Better Not Interview Brown Tonight

(Newser) – Chris Brown will appear as planned on Dancing with the Stars tonight, but host Tom Bergeron says producers shouldn't expect him to interview the singer unless they want to see someone bust a window. Bergeron says he can't promise to avoid mentioning Brown's well-publicized temper tantrum following his Good Morning America appearance last week, E! Online reports.

"I did say to the producers it might be to their advantage to not have me interview him, because my natural tendency would be to say something,” Bergeron told American Idol host Ryan Seacrest on Seacrest's radio show. “So don’t put me in a position where you’re asking me to not say something, cause I won’t really do that. Even if it's just a snarky little aside, you know, 'How was your week?'" he said. "They'll probably have me in a Hannibal Lecter suit," he quipped.

First Bristol Palin and now this! Why oh why oh why do they continue to give this untalented, woman abusing, maniac exposure?

Keep pushing this animal's buttons. The sooner he kills someone and ends up in prison for the rest of his life, the sooner I don't have to hear anything more about this piece of shit. (My sympathies to the loved ones of the person he inevitably kills.)

Surely the record company can find someone else that can record vocoded tracks over the same beat as every other pop song on the radio like this guy does.
