He found himself in the center of another high-profile scandal that threatens to end in prison for the 29-year-old performer. The story began in May, when Brown, who was recently considered one of the most promising musicians in the United States, was sued by a woman whose name was not disclosed by the investigation.

She accused the star of organizing a party at which she was raped by two acquaintances of the singer - a guy (a certain Lowell Grissom) and an unnamed girl. According to her, the incident took place at the beginning of 2017: at the beginning of the event, the plaintiff's mobile phone was taken away, after which they began to offer her hard drugs.

A little later, Brown's friend allegedly took the woman and several other party attendees into a separate room, barricaded the door, and then made Grissom, who was in the locked room, orally satisfy. Following the girl, as stated in the materials of the investigation, she forcibly threw the victim onto the bed and again forced her to oral sex - this time for her own satisfaction.

When the woman was left alone for a while, she went to the shower, but soon Grissom came there and twice raped Brown's guest - and only after that the victim managed to leave the ill-fated party.

Having barely received publicity, the case began to rapidly gain momentum. Already in early July, there was a loud arrest of the performer immediately after his concert in Florida: law enforcement officers were expecting the musician with a warrant right at the stage. Brown spent some time in a police station, and then he was released on bail of $ 2 thousand - and the artist was able to continue his concert tour in the United States.

Already in August, new details of the scandalous story appeared - media became known exactly how Brown is going to build his rape defense. It turned out that the singer explains his own innocence to what happened by being very busy at the time of the crime.

According to the musician, at the very moment when the plaintiff was forced to endure the bullying of his friends, Brown “had sex, and also watched pornographic videos,” without knowing anything about what was happening in his house.

Based on this, the artist's lawyers asked investigators to remove his name from the case - the star's defense emphasizes that the victim never accused Chris directly of rape and assault, speaking only of his indirect involvement in the incident. At the same time, the police are in no hurry to satisfy the requests of Brown's lawyers: the case is still under investigation, and the singer passes through him as one of the accomplices in the crime.

Moreover, if the court recognizes the artist's guilt, he faces a prison term, the duration of which may contribute to the former "merits" of the artist.

Perhaps the most famous story of this kind involving Brown is the resonant beating of the singer Rihanna in 2009, with whom the musician was in a relationship. According to rumors, the conflict between young artists (the American of Barbados was then only 21 years old) began after the girl saw a message from his ex-girlfriend on her boyfriend's phone.

The couple was in the car at that moment, and Brown, trying to force Rihanna to leave the car, hit her in the face with his fist, after which he returned behind the wheel and continued to beat the girl in the direction of travel. The perpetrator also threatened Rihanna with reprisals and even allegedly tried to strangle his girlfriend when he realized that she was making attempts to report what was happening to the police. As a result, Brown threw the car in fear and fled the scene, leaving the bleeding girl alone.

The artist managed to escape jail largely thanks to good lawyers and the decision to report to the police station on his own with confessions of what he had done - for beating a friend, Chris was sentenced to 180 hours of community service and five years probation.

Curiously, a few years later, Rihanna returned to Brown, accepting his apology. True, later the couple broke up again - fortunately, already without assault.

A similar scandal happened to the singer in 2016, when a certain Lisienne Gutierrez went to the police, claiming that Brown had beaten her up at a private party. As the girl explained, the artist hit her in the eye, furious that Lisienne ignored the request not to shoot him on camera. The defense of the musician, however, managed to hush up this case too.

While the Western media are in full swing discussing the rumors about the pop singer and her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, the press leaked impartial details of their trial. Recall, three years ago, on the night before the Grammy, Chris brutally RiRi.

Some fragments of the documents provided by the police can be shocking. On that fateful day, the conflict between Rihanna and Chris began in the car. Brown was driving, Rihanna was sitting next to him in the passenger seat. She took her cell phone from her companion and read a text message from a woman with whom Brown had previously had an affair.

After a verbal skirmish, Chris stopped the car and tried to forcibly pull the singer out of it, but she was buckled. Unable to get Rihanna out of the car, he hit her in the left eye. Then he got behind the wheel and started off, continuing to beat his girlfriend. Rihanna's mouth was bleeding and splattered on her clothes and the interior upholstery of the car. Brown looked at the singer and promised to continue beating her when they got home. Then she dialed her personal assistant on her mobile, but she did not pick up the phone, so RiRi left a voice message:

I'm driving home. Have the police there when I get there.

As soon as Rihanna hung up the phone, Brown shouted:

You just did the stupidest thing in your life! And now I have to kill you!

Chris then proceeded to beat the singer, who was protecting her face with her elbows. When she tried to dial the number of her other assistant, the man took the phone from Rihanna and threw it out the window. Then the artist grabbed Brown's cell, but before she could make the call, Chris stabbed her in the head, then pulled the girl closer to him and began to beat her in the ear.

Then the man stopped the car and continued to hit Rihanna on the head, and then began to choke her altogether. Then RiRi pulled her knees up to her chest and tried to push Brown out of the car, which made him even more angry. Chris began to hit the girl on the legs with such force that she began to scream loudly and call for help. Then the man stopped beating Rihanna and fled the scene of the crime, and bystanders of the incident immediately called 911.

Rihanna - one of the most popular and successful pop stars in the world - never ceases to amaze the press and her fans with her relationship with Chris Brown.

After Chris Brown beat Rihanna 4 years ago, it seemed that there could be no question of any reconciliation. Recall that condemned by everyone and every Brown was found guilty of causing grievous bodily harm and sentenced to 5 years probation and 180 hours of community service.

And what do we see now? Rihanna publicly defends a person who has caused her many problems in the past.

Of course, for fans, the story of the couple is an example of forgiving love, but the press, hungry for scandals, tirelessly seeks out some kind of catch.

Mr Brown, who turned 24 the other day, was not immediately accepted by the public with open arms after such a bright scandal. Since 2011, Chris and Rihanna have been quietly preparing fans for their possible reunion throughout the year: there will be rumors in the press, then hints in songs, or even ambiguous behavior at some event.

One of the first signals of an impending reconciliation was Rihanna's video for the song “We Found Love,” released at the end of 2011, where she first flirts and then fights with a guy very similar to Brown. The clip caused bewilderment among the listeners, and for the first time made them think that everything is not lost between Chris and Rihanna. Then - a few months after the Grammy Awards, in which Mr. Brown won the award for Best R&B Album - on Twitter, the stars shared links to remixes of their songs, where they participated together. The story was further developed last summer: first on the Oprah Winfrey show, Rihanna admitted that she had forgiven Mr. Brown, and then this seemingly unplanned hug followed - or maybe there was an imperceptible kiss? - during the MTV Video Music Awards, when the singer was returning to her seat.

And here is the opposite example: the love story of a young couple, too, Liam Hemsworth and Miley Cyrus

On February 14 this year, in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Rihanna finally confirmed the information about the renewal of relations with Chris Brown, saying - as if preparing for attacks:

Even if it is a mistake, it is my mistake! And I'll figure it out myself!

And in an interview with the New York Times, Mr. Brown stated:

Public opinion has never influenced what kind of decision I make in a given situation. My choice is driven solely by the desire to improve myself, both in my own eyes and in the eyes of my fans.

Whatever one may say, Rihanna is one of the most successful pop singers at the moment: in the USA she has already sold about 63 million songs, and the number of hit songs in her performance has reached the same level as that performed by Madonna or the Supremes group. According to preliminary estimates, her annual income is about $ 53 million, and hordes of fans around the world want to listen to her songs regardless of what happens in her personal life - so it is quite understandable why Rihanna and Chris do not care what others say about their reconciliation.

Rihanna and Chris Brown split up for good

The memories of how in 2010 and 2011 Rihanna went to Chris Brown, after parting with Drake before that, are still alive. Now that bitter fate befell their relationship with Chris, the searing pop diva appears in public, accompanied by Drake! Did she resume her old romance? According to HollywoodLife.com sources, Rihanna was just making sure Chris Brown wasn't looking to meet her at the BET Awards.

“It was probably the best way to get him not to show up there, and she [Rihanna] thinks she acted like an adult,” the source added.

However, as it turned out, Rihanna and Drake do not have a romantic relationship, despite the fact that the young people have been friends for a long time. Rihanna is just trying to make Chris jealous and resume their romance. Drake recently shared his thoughts on Rihanna and Chris Brown with GQ magazine. In his opinion, all this "will end badly."

If Rihanna really wants to get Chris back, then the ways she resorts don't seem to work. Most recently, the star posted a message on her Twitter, in which she very aggressively insults her ex-boyfriend. Rihanna does not mention his name, but it is not necessary to understand who she is talking to. This behavior of the star is surprising, to put it mildly - recently, on the third of July, the star said that she respects Chris and is trying to just throw him out of her head. “She wishes him all the best, but is no longer interested in his life,” a reliable source said.

"I hate myself for this": Chris Brown talks about his tumultuous relationship with Rihanna and the reasons for their constant fights

Chris Brown and Rihanna's relationship ended about 8 years ago, but the echoes of their whirlwind romance can still be heard. The musician recalled the deeds of the past and explained the reasons for their constant quarrels and fights in the new documentary Chris Brown: Welcome To My Life.

The romance of Chris Brown and Rihanna has always been full of misunderstandings and jealousy, which spilled over into a stormy showdown with the use of physical force. According to Chris, sometimes he and Rihanna even discussed the need to stop fighting:

There always came a moment when we said: "What are we doing? If I go on stage with a scratched and broken face, I will have to say that I have fallen."

According to Brown, Rihanna's jealousy was the cause of most of the fights. The situation reached its climax in February 2009. Chris at a Grammy party was approached by a woman with whom he had previously had a sexual relationship. Rihanna suspected that it was Chris called her to the event, and a quarrel ensued between them. After the party, Rihanna and Chris were sitting in the car together, and at that moment a message from this girl came to the singer's phone.

She started throwing my phone, screaming that she hates me, hitting me. I tried to prove to her that she was wrong. She tried to start a fight again, and then I hit her with my fist. I broke her lip. When I saw this, I was shocked. "Damn it, did I really do that?" She spat her own blood in my face, and it made me even more angry ... Then she threw the keys out of the car, got out of it, and while I was looking for these same keys, she began to call for help ...

This is how the events look like according to Chris, but the documents attached to the beating case list much more severe beatings: according to the materials of the lawsuit, as a result of the incident, Rihanna received extensive head injuries and practically fainted. The story ended with Chris receiving five years probation and 1,400 hours of corrective labor. Photos of Rihanna with a broken face are still actively "walking" on the network and, according to Chris, serve as an eternal reminder of how cruel he can be.

When I see them, I don’t understand how it happened. I think: it was not me. Not me. I hate this day

This is Chris speaking in the documentary.

Rihanna herself did not remember the events of those years for a long time. Now the singer is happy in a relationship with Hassam Jamil, a businessman from Saudi Arabia. Rihanna's boyfriend is vice president and vice chairman of the board of directors of Abdul Latif. The company is owned by his family and is one of the largest in the world. The Hassam family owns the distribution rights for Toyota vehicles in Saudi Arabia. According to Forbes magazine for 2016, their fortune is estimated at $ 1.5 billion and they are ranked 12th on the list of the richest Arabs in the Middle East.

It all started back in 2005, when Chris Brown was not yet so self-confident and cocky, and Rihanna looked like a diligent college student.

At the age of 16, the rapper released his debut album "Chris Brown", which sold 155,000 copies in just 7 weeks. At this time, at the end of 2005, Rihanna also gains popularity and widespread fame not only in America, but also abroad. The career of a young singer is developing in the best possible way.

Young and ambitious, this couple was not yet in the status of lovers, but already felt a clear sympathy for each other. This is easily seen from the photo taken during the famous Z100's Jingle Ball, traditionally held in New York.

In April 2006, Rihanna and Chris Brown were spotted at the 19th Annual Kids' Choice Awards, which is regularly hosted by Nickelodeon's children's television channel.

The friendship of this couple became stronger and stronger, and they began to write about their romance in the press. Rihanna and Chris celebrated the rapper's 18th birthday together at the 40/40 club in New York.

In August 2007, the annual MTV Video Music Awards took place, at which the young people looked really happy.

In February 2008, at a party before the Grammy awards ceremony, Rihanna and Chris Brown's romance was no longer a secret to anyone. And the artists themselves did not hide their feelings towards each other, smiling cheerfully and posing for the photographer.

Lovers in February 2008

Rihanna and Chris have repeatedly attended social events together, the 2008 MTV Movie Awards in California and the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards in Los Angeles were no exception.

Ironically, three years after the Z100's Jingle Ball 2005, Rihanna and Chris Brown attended the event together again, only now in the status of lovers.

This photo was taken just the day before Chris Brown was arrested and charged with domestic violence. At the party before the Grammy ceremony, the couple looked very happy, Rihanna was literally beaming with happiness. Nothing seemed to bode well.

This photo was taken just a day before Rihanna was beaten.

A few years later, Rihanna admitted in an interview with Oprah Winfrey that she is still in love with Chris and has long forgiven him for the past. The beating of Rihanna became one of the most scandalous events of 2009, but having survived the shame and humiliation, the singer is ready to move on and fight for her love. Feelings are still strong, and the performer herself is determined. Recently, Rihanna was very upset that Chris Brown ignored her company while relaxing in a nightclub.

Remembering the last MTV Video Music Awards 2012 and the passionate kiss of Rihanna and Chris Brown, I hope that this couple will really be together. Attempt number two is possible?
