'MY COLLABORATION WITH CHRIS BROWN IS INNOCENT'- RIHANNA

On Ryan Seacrest’s radio show on KIIS-FM in Los Angeles, Barbados-born singer Rihanna revealed that he featured Chris Brown in the remix of her ‘Birthday Cake’ song because he is still the hottest R’nB singer right now. He also asked her to feature on his song, ‘Turn Up the Music’ . (One good turn deserves another)
Apparently the memories of the ‘panel beating’ doesn’t live with her no more.
The 24 year-old claimed the collaboration made sense, “There shouldn’t be a divide. …It’s music, and it’s innocent.”
She defended.

Hmmmm! The Power of Love

FAN ACCUSES CHRIS BROWN OF PHONE THEFT

A 24 year-old lady, Christal Spann has accused Chris Brown of snatching her $500 iPhone when she tried to take his pictures outside a nightclub in Miami and driving off with it.
According to the Florida woman, Chris had followed Tyga (a rapper) out of Cameo nightclub and as she snapped a picture of Chris getting into his Bentley, Chris flipped out when he saw her camera phone, grabbed it through the car window, saying, “Bitch, you ain’t going to put that on no website.”
The R n B Grammy award winner at first kept mum over the matter but he’s told friends he’s done nothing wrong and hopes he’s sorted out soon.
Though an arrest warrant has not been issued sources say that even if he is arrested, it is extremely unlikely that his probation for assaulting Rihanna back in 2009 would be revoked.
The case is still under investigation.

I understand some celebrities get cranky when they see camera flicks but fans would never let them be. I want to be careful here cos investigation is still on so won’t say nothing much. But if he really did….hmmmm! And if the girl lied….hmmm! He’s still on probation for beating Rihanna and this??? Oh my! Why Chris Brown?
