C Brown Is Remorseful

According to People, Clinton Brown, Chris's biological father, was interviewed by People at his Virginia home and stated: "He's reflecting on this situation... He's very remorseful. He's very concerned about the situation and he wants to make sure that [Rihanna's] okay." Clinton went on to say, "This is unfortunate, this stumble, this situation"... "Hopefully, he will get past it. We all have our shortcomings. We all trip."

Chris And Rihanna Update

According to CBS News, peeps are saying the alleged assault on the unidentifed woman in question is Rihanna. One would think with all the info I am about to unleash from watching CBS News, they would've known the details of who these peeps are that are saying it is Rihanna but noooo...Anyway, this alleged verbal and physical attack took place early yesterday morning in a car in the Hancock Park area of Los Angeles. The woman assaulted called 911 and when the LAPD arrived, she identified Brown has her attacker who had already fled the scene.

According to police officials, there were visible signs of physical abuse. Chris was booked on suspicion of making felony criminal threats and turned himself in last night. He posted $50,000 bail.

The details of this story are still developing.

See earlier post for more details.

Jennifer Hudson won a Grammy yall. She got the first one (best R&B album) and of course it was emotional... hmm and she was our pick for this one.

Chris And Rihanna

Brown is under investigation for allegedly assaulting a female. It is unclear if this incident happened at the event itself and it is also unclear if Rihanna dropping out is related to Chris. It is also unclear if Chris voluntarily dropped out of the show or was kicked off according to Yahoo News.
