Chris Brown Gets Violent


I was planning on just a simple "here are the Grammy nominees and winners" type post, but in light of the whole Chris Brown fiasco that is obviously not going to happen.

Here is the story: After leaving the pre-Grammy Gala at the Beverly Hilton, Chris Brown and an unidentified woman reportedly got into an argument in a Hancock Park neighborhood. The argument escalated and a witness called 911. The unidentified woman identified Chris Brown as her attacker, but by the time police arrived, Brown had already fled the scene. The unidentified woman has since then been identified as none other than girlfriend and pop star, Rhianna. Brown turned himself in last night and was held before positing $50,000 bail. He has been charged with making criminal threats and is still under investigation for felony charges of domestic violence. He is due in court March 5th.

Keep in mind all of this happened during the Grammys at which Chris was to perform "Forever" and Rhianna "Live Your Life" and "Disturbia."

For once I am at a loss for words. I guess I'm just reacting like any other normal human being would to any sort of news of domestic violence. All I'm going to say is he pulled some crazy Bobby Brown-esque stuff right there, and we all know where Bobby and his career is today.

Not that you really care anymore, but here is the complete list of the Grammy nominees and winners.

Oh, and while in the news room this morning, the AP informed me that Wrigley had just suspended all ads featuring the star but stopped short of saying the company will drop him completely. Do I see an anti violence PSA coming up? You bet.

Visit TMZ for the latest news on the case as well as a video of Chris Brown getting booked.
