Chris Brown Mug Shots
As you may have heard Chris Brown was arrested this weekend for assaulting his 20 year old girlfriend Rihanna. Reports say the two pop singers, who are (or were) one of the hottest young couples in the industry, were leaving a pre-Grammy party when they got into a fight. There are many stories out there, but it’s believed by one source that Rihanna was jealous because of a text message her ‘boo’ got from another female during the party. She got out of the car upset during the argument and in an effort to get her back in he grabbed her. The industry source says “She pulled away. That’s when she’s told people he hit her.” I’ve heard that both of the stars are pretty stubborn so who knows how this all went down and who’s in the wrong but them.
It is said that Rihanna had “visible injuries” when the cops arrived. TMZ.com calls her bruises “horrific”. The loved R&B singer, originally from Barbados, is not taking any calls from Brown according to a business source. She continues to cooperate with the investigation while keeping her distance.
Brown, 19, was released on a bail of $50,000. TMZ.com says he was charged with one count felony criminal threats. This has not been a good week for Chris Brown who was up for two Grammy nominations. Wrigley has suspended all advertisements featuring Brown. A company spokesperson told US Weekly “Wrigley is concerned by the serious allegations made against Chris Brown. We believe Mr. Brown should be afforded the same due process as any citizen. However, we have made the decision to suspend the current advertising featuring Brown and any related marketing communications until the matter is resolved.”
Since his ‘run-in’ with the law Chris Brown has also pulled out of Saturday’s NBA All-Star Weekend. He is due in court March 5. Mark Geragos has been hired as his lawyer. Geragos is the same attorney who defended Michael Jackson for alleged child molestation and Winona Ryder for shoplifting so I guess he comes highly recommended.
