US EditionChris Brown jokes about 'nice' jail as he starts UK tour
- On June 20, 2025, at Southwark Crown Court in London, Chris Brown, the R&B artist, entered a plea of not guilty to charges accusing him of intentionally inflicting serious bodily injury during an incident at a nightclub in February 2023.
- The charges arise from an alleged bottle assault on music producer Abraham Diaw at a nightclub located in Mayfair, with co-defendant Omololu Akinlolu also pleading not guilty to the same accusation ahead of their trial scheduled for October 26, 2026.
- Brown was arrested at Manchester’s Lowry Hotel on May 15, 2025, held at HMP Forest Bank, released on £5 million bail, and launched his Breezy Bowl XX UK tour starting with a June 15 show at Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester.
- On June 15, during his performance at the Co-Op Live Arena in Manchester, Chris Brown expressed his gratitude to the staff at the Greater Manchester detention center, humorously remarking that the facility was "really nice." He also shared an Instagram story with the caption "FROM THE CAGE TO THE STAGE!!!," alluding to his recent time in custody.
- Brown and Akinlolu are scheduled to attend a pre-trial hearing on July 11, 2025, must maintain limited communication except through their solicitors or for voice coaching related to Brown’s world tour, and Brown is allowed to continue traveling abroad to fulfill his remaining concert dates.
