Poor thang … Robin Thicke Admits That His Attempt To Win Paula Patton Back Was “Embarrassing” After the release of his “Paula” album dedicated entirely to his estranged wife Paula Patton , Robin Thicke was embarrassed. According to the R&B crooner he was told to “go away for a while” after “looking like a sucker” by begging to get her back. Billboard reports: My supersaturation came right after I performed on the BET Awards [in June 2014]. I dedicated the performance [of the song “Forever Love”] to my ex. And I came home, and my best friend of 20 years, Craig Crawford, said, “I saw your BET performance.” And I said: “Oh yeah! What did you think?” You know — excited. And he goes: “I gotta be honest with you, buddy. You’re kind of playing yourself. You look like a sucker.” And it hit me that I’d lost my perspective. What I thought was romantic was just embarrassing. And he said, “You should just go away for a while.” So I shut everything down. I took some time off to be with my son, and to be with my family and close friends. And the more time I took off, the more everything became clear. And on his “embarrassing instead of romantic” album; Look, my songwriting has always been autobiographical, and always will be. The “Paula” album was no different. I was struggling through my toughest time, and I decided to share it. And I remember my team and my record company didn’t want me to put it out, but they stuck by me. In hindsight, the only thing I would have done differently was, I wouldn’t have promoted it or sold it. I would have given it away. That would have kept the purity of the message intact. Too bad he did all that for nothing. What do YOU think about Robin admitting that his album was embarrassing???
