Singing sensation Rita Ora thinks "no one cares" about Chris Brown's criminal record as long as he makes good music.
The 24-year-old pop star has collaborated with the controversial singer on a new song and has launched a staunch defence of Chris, who was convicted of assaulting his ex-girlfriend Rihanna after a pre-Grammy party in 2009, reported Contactmusic.
"Chris Brown is strong, powerful and someone that is important to me personally and professionally. The discrimination and all what people think? If you have a great song then no one cares," said the , "R.I.P" hitmaker.
Ora insisted that despite the controversy surrounding Brown, she believes he is fundamentally a "good person" and is proud to have worked with him.
"I love him on different levels. I see how he treats his people and he's a good person with a good heart and a lovely family," she said.
