"I feel like I shouldn't have to explain myself to anybody because this is my life and I can do whatever I want. But in the same breath, it's like, now that I am trying to focus on my career and get my stuff together, I have to clear up certain things,” Tran said. "Negative stuff was being said and being brought up. A lot of people were like 'she's only famous because of Chris Brown.’”

She added that she has learned to ignore a lot of the negative things people say about her and her time with Brown. "I want to respond but I've learned it's best to just let it go and not even put any energy towards that,” Tran said.

But she admitted is still tough to deal with people judging her due to her simply being Brown’s ex-girlfriend. “A lot of people think I am a weak individual because of past situations and when it comes to business sometimes people don't want to be involved with somebody like that. Which is understandable, but it sucks, because I'm not a weak person," she said. What do you think about Karrueche’s comments about Chris?
