Chris brown arrested in Paris over rape allegation

[storm2006]

Jeff Bezos would beg to differ.

Bruh - I said money and vagina aren’t the only important things in life and the example you point to is the richest man in the world. C’mon man. Do better than that.

My uncle who is PAID did get a divorce when I was in college and didn’t quite understand the whole implications. I asked him if he was fine with her getting half his money and his response was “I’ll be fine. There’s a lot difference for the guy work that $50M getting a divorce that the guy worth $50k.” If you’re going to be dumb enough to cheat on your wife, you better be worth a lot.

I remember Slim Thug saying he catches 1 to 2
cases a year of chicks trying to get him and he’s a regional cat. Honestly I think he welcomes his cases cause he clowns the hell out of them on the gram.

didnt he have a baby with his cousin or some weird crap...?

Not surprised at all

Paris has crazy laws. They have a law against catcalling or pretty much any unawanted verbal communication on the streets with women.

and ninjahood many will say that these situations have definitely hit Chris Browns career hard, many think without them he would've been the biggest male popstar in the world this decade rather than being overtaken by the likes of Bruno Mars, The Weeknd, Ed Sheeran, Bieber etc.

How oxymoronic?

The truth is when you’re a man of high social value, status and resources it’s presents the opportunity to be the lover of many woman without much effort.

The wild thing about is that people in said position are encapsulated in that very truth. Like you’re better off just being super faithful to one woman.

Never understood why he got a pass after beating Rihanna up.

Honestly dude never got a pass.

Rihana never came out and said “i forgive you”
He did his apologetic interviews, and then ppl just stopped just talking about it.

I bet you had rihanna been more vocal, she couldve ruined him. Possibly couldve even start the “me2” movement before it originally started.

The horrifying ordeal is said to have happened at the Mandarin Oriental in the centre of the French capital, where suites can cost more than £19,000-a-night.

It was in the exclusive hotel that the 24-year-old woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, says she was attacked by Brown, his bodyguard and a family friend.

On Tuesday night, all, including 29-year-old Brown, remained in custody at a Paris police station facing the threat of criminal charges that could see them imprisoned.

They have yet to respond to the allegation.

In an interview with French Closer magazine, the woman said she met Brown 'through a friend' who works at the Crystal Lounge nightclub on the Champs Elysee.

'This friend asked me what I was doing the next day, and if I would like to meet Chris Brown,' said the woman, who finally met the rapper on January 15th.

'I said yes and the next day, on Tuesday, I had an appointment at 11.30pm at the Mandarin Oriental hotel to meet the rapper. At the reception of the hotel, I found myself with friends of his and other girls. We went up to his suite to pick him up and we all went to a nightclub called 'The Quay'.

'Everything was going well. Around 4am, they decided to go back to the hotel. I wanted to go home, but someone in Chris Brown's entourage took me by the arm and said: 'Come on, we'll have a good evening.'

'Leaving the nightclub, there were two Mercedes vans that were full up. So I said, 'There's no place, I'm going home.' Then I was told, 'No, come on!'. And I was put in Chris Brown's car with another girl.'

The group got back to Brown's rooms at the Mandarin Oriental.

Singer Chris Brown is pictured in Paris on January 16, the morning after he allegedly raped a 25-year-old woman at a hotel. He is seen meeting people unconnected to the alleged attack. Police sources said he had been arrested yesterday
The woman told Closer: 'Before entering the suite, the bodyguard took all our cell phones. It didn't seem surprising given the artist's notoriety and I didn't worry. Once in the suite, we were offered drinks. There was cocaine and cannabis.

'There were about fifteen girls, friends of Chris Brown. The music was loud, people were coming in and out ... It was a bit chaotic.'

Asked if prostitutes were present, the woman said: 'I don't know. There were only very pretty girls.'

She continued: 'At one point, I went to the bathroom. Chris Brown followed me and took me by the right arm. He made me enter a sort of dressing room. He closed the door.'

Saying the rape followed, the woman explained: 'It lasted 25 to 30 minutes. It's still too difficult for me to explain in detail what he did, but it was brutal and violent.

'He was threatening and aggressive. I was very afraid. Once it was over, he opened the door. I told him that I wanted to pick up my cell phone and go home.

'Chris Brown went to see one of his friends. I thought this person was going to accompany me to the bodyguard for my cell phone, but that's not what he did.

'He took me to his room, he locked the door and he abused me too. It was the same with the bodyguard All I wanted to do was go home. I was too scared. There were three muscular men, aggressive and menacing. I couldn't do anything. I'm traumatized, I can't overcome what happened to me and resume my habits. It's horrible, I'm lost.'

Asked by Closer how she managed to escape, the woman said: 'I said that I had to go to bed, that I had classes the next day. I cried. When he saw me like that, he returned my cell phone and I left.'

Following the attack in the early hours of January 16, the woman waiting two days, until Friday January 18 to go to the police in Paris.

Confirming she had been hesitant, the woman said: 'Yes. I was scared. They have my address, my cell number, my picture ...

'But I didn't want them to be able to do the same thing to other girls. Chris Brown is the kind of person who thinks himself powerful and thinks himself above the law, but no. I'll go to the end. Abused three times in the same evening by three different men – it's unbearable to live with.'

The woman said she did not know if other women claim to have been raped that night.

'I don't know,' she said. 'Sometimes girls do not dare to speak. They are scared and I understand them, but I want them to stop doing this to girls who have not asked for anything.

'I just thought I was having a good night with a star. I didn't imagine that I was going to find myself locked up with aggressive and menacing men who forced me to do things I did not want to do.'

The three men, including Brown, were finally arrested at the hotel on Monday, and face charged of 'aggravated rape' and 'violation of drugs legislation', including using a 'banned drug'.

The initially custody period can last 48 hours, after which an official investigation can be launched, or they can be freed.

Referring to Brown, a prosecuting source in Paris said: 'He is accused of a rape and is being held at the judicial police offices in the 1starrondissement.

'He was arrested with two others on Monday, and interviews and other enquiries are ongoing. All three men can be held for a period of up to 48 hours.'

In 2009, Brown was charged with domestic violence in the United States against superstar singer Rihanna, his then girlfriend. He admitted the offences, and was sentenced to community service.

Model Liziane Gutierrez also claimed she was punched in the face by the father-of-one, but this never led to court action.

Suites at the Mandarin, one of the most expensive 'palace' class hotels in Paris, can cost upwards of £19,000 a night.

R&B singer Chris Brown (pictured in Paris during the city's fashion week) has been arrested in the French capital on suspicion of rape
On Saturday night he was seen with his model girlfriend Ammika Harris at Paris nightclub Cirque Bonheur.

He has been in repeated legal trouble since pleading guilty to the felony assault in 2009 of his then-girlfriend, Rihanna, in the U.S.

He completed his probation in that case in 2015 but has been beset by a series of further legal issues including further accusations of assault.

Le Crystal, also known as the Crystal Lounge, describes itself as a 'VIP clubbing experience bang in the middle of Paris'.

Brown was discovered by a record label when he was a boy working at his father's gas station in Virginia.

First identified as a rapper, Brown has since found success with his rich singing voice.

He is best-known for hits in the 2000s such as 'Run It' and 'Kiss Kiss.' He retains a loyal fandom, including nearly 50 million followers on Instagram.

Bulllllshiiiiitttttt

 

[iamdef]

Them details is rough.
I'm not sold on him being involved but can't say that there are many rich people I put a rape accusation above. What she said sounds plausible and I hope the truth comes out in a way that she can move on with her life the best way possible.

As far as "canceling" CB, he's not above being forgotten as an artist and wouldn't be difficult to "cut ties" with him as an artist but I can't say that I would lead myself to "protesting" him. I don't oppose anybody saying he didn't do it or saying that he did do it, as long as the person is respectful to the fact that most likely that woman was raped by somebody and deserves respect for coming forward.

 

[ninjahood]

one broad discrediting da other...

 

[whatscomplex]

Smells fishy tbh but she described it as "brutal and violent" so they should be able to find some proof if it did in fact happen.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

I hope ge figures it out, I hate to see folks ALWAYS have their names in the SAME type of affairs.

He might just need to start making these girl sign NDAs and record every session like JJ Redick.

Hope he figures it out

[deuce king]

ninjahood was right a while ago if you're this rich you should just pay or get a pron subscription or something.

To this day I don't know how dudes like Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlain, Derek Jeter, and so many more that you know or heard stories of them being out there never got caught up like that.

Some of these dudes need to go hit them up for advice.

Simple put......some dudes have GAME and some dudes don’t. Chris Brown appears to have little to no game. As the playas used to say back in the day “you get in they head before you get in they bed”. Money only exposes the weaknesses that you have as a man.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Rape can be about power and control and not just about a lame dude not having game.

Again, not saying he did it but he has a history of being a control addict when it comes to women.

What is "game" in his situation? He has looks, fame and money. That's his advantage with women. He pulled Rihanna, kakarot and others

 

[vood99]

oidreez Cats with looks, fame & money be the most insecure types as the aforementioned doesn't quite lend itself to 'game' development.

 

[blastercombo]

Wait... she press charges or not?

GAME is what you SAY and being able to read in between the lines. GAME is being able to WATCH things even from afar and pick up on signs, be they verbal or non-verbal. GAME is learning from your mistakes and not repeating the same mishaps or finding yourself in the same unfortunate predicament. Something that Chris Brown simply doesn’t have and hasn’t learned yet.

 

[nawghtyhare]

didnt he have a baby with his cousin or some weird crap...?

yup
