Brandy is opening up about a growing rift between herself and her younger brother, Ray J, citing public behavior that she said she can no longer support.
The “The Boy Is Mine” songstress revealed in a recent interview that she has made the difficult decision to distance herself from the reality television star to maintain her personal peace. “There is distance right now,” Brandy said during a candid conversation regarding her family life.

“There are a few things that he’s been doing in the public eye that I don’t condone, and I just feel like loving him from afar right now is best for me.” While the Grammy Award winner did not specify which of Ray J’s recent antics led to the separation, the “Sexy Can I” singer has been a lightning rod for controversy in recent years.
His public life has been marked by volatile social media outbursts and high-profile legal and personal disputes, many of which have played out on reality television and Instagram. Despite the current tension, Brandy insisted that her sibling bond remains a cornerstone of her identity.
The singer is currently promoting her new memoir, which details her meteoric rise to fame, her struggles in the music industry, and her deep-seated love for her family. She noted that Ray J is a central figure throughout her written history. “My life with Ray and my connection with him is all throughout the book, and my love for him never wavers,” Brandy said.

The siblings have historically been seen as one of the closest duos in Hollywood, often supporting one another through career highs and public scandals. This public admission marks a significant shift for the Norwood family, who have often presented a united front in the press. Ray J has not yet issued a formal public statement in response to his sister’s remarks.
For now, Brandy said she remains focused on her mental health and her new literary project while keeping a respectful distance from her brother’s public drama.
