Breezy Is Free : Chris Brown Granted Bail By London Court
Source: Gallo Images / Getty According to BBC, Chris Brown was let out on bail this week after being charged with seriously hurting someone in a London nightclub last year. The person he's accused of attacking is music producer Abe Diaw. Brown had been in custody for a short time, but now he's been released while the case moves forward. This all happened right before his big summer tour, and fans were worried it might be canceled. With the R&B superstar out on bail, it looks like the shows are still happening. His first concert, called the Breezy Bowl, is scheduled for June 8 and will kick off the tour. Not much has been shared about what went down in the club, but the charge he's facing is pretty serious. Even though the case isn't over, Brown's team says he's working with the authorities and is staying focused on his music and upcoming shows. After being released on bail, his 'Breezy Bowl XX' tour is kicking off as planned. The first show starts June 8, 2025, in Amsterdam, and he'll be performing all across Europe until July 5, ending in Paris. Then he's heading to North America, starting July 30 in Miami. Fans can look forward to big performances and special guests like Summer Walker and Bryson Tiller.

UK court orders singer Chris Brown held in custody over 2023 London nightclub fight charge
Grammy-winning singer Chris Brown's upcoming tour was thrown into question Friday as a British judge ordered him held in custody while facing allegations that he beat a music producer with a bottle in a London nightclub in 2023. Brown, 36, appeared in Manchester Magistrates' Court to face one count of causing grievous bodily harm and was ordered held until his next hearing June 13 in London – the same day he's due to take the stage in Frankfurt, Germany, on the third date of his world tour. Judge Joanne Hirst rejected Brown's bail request after prosecutor Hannah Nicholls said that the crime was 'extremely serious.' Brown was on tour in the UK in February 2023 when he is alleged to have attacked producer Abe Diaw with a bottle at the Tape nightclub, in London's Mayfair neighborhood. Defense attorney Grace Forbes argued that the American performer wasn't a flight risk and should be released. Brown was flanked by court officers in the dock. His hair was bleached blonde and he wore sweatpants and a black T-shirt. He confirmed his name and birth date, and said that his address was the local Lowry Hotel, where he was arrested early Thursday and taken into custody. His case was transferred to Southwark Crown Court in London, where he is expected to enter a plea to the charge. Brown's representative didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from The Associated Press. Brown, often called by his nickname Breezy, burst onto the music scene as a teen in 2005 and has become a major hitmaker over the years with notable songs such as 'Run It,' 'Kiss Kiss' and 'Without You.' He won his first Grammy for best R&B album in 2011 for 'F.A.M.E.' and then earned his second gold trophy in the same category for '11:11 (Deluxe)' earlier this year. The singer is due to launch an international tour next month with artists Jhene Aiko, Summer Walker and Bryson Tiller, opening with a European leg on June 8 in Amsterdam before starting North America shows in July.
