Court Refuses Delay In Douchebag Case

The California Supreme Court has refused a request to delay the preliminary hearing in R&B singer Chris Brown's assault case.

The 19-year-old's lawyer requested the delay last week to gain access to police records. An appeals court had already rejected a similar request. The singer is due in court on 22 June for the hearing.

Brown has pleaded not guilty to assaulting and threatening his singer girlfriend Rihanna in February.The preliminary hearing will determine whether there is enough evidence for the case to go to trial.

Barbados-born singer Rihanna, 21, has been requested to appear as a witness. It is thought she is likely to testify in the case. Brown faces up to four years in prison if convicted of the charges.

Alien Robot Is Over Being A Punching Bag?

Rihanna is calling the shots with on-off boyfriend Chris Brown, and that means speaking to him on her terms.

Following a two-month career break, the 21-year-old Barbadian beauty was back in an L.A. recording studio last week. But her singing was interrupted by a stream of phones calls from Chris.

"Chris called Rihanna's producer until he finally got him on the phone," an insider tells OK!. "He demanded to know if Rihanna was there, pleading 'Is she there? Tell Me! Pease tell me if she is there or not.'"

When the "Disturbia" singer heard the commotion, says the source, she gestured to the producer, "No! Tell him I'm not here."

As reported yesterday, Rihanna's lawyer told OK! that his client will testify in Brown's trial if the District Attorney asks her to. However, insiders tell OK! it's still highly unlikely that the case will ever go to trial, and that a plea agreement will be reached before the next scheduled court date of May 28.

Yeah Blame It On Others... Chris Brown The Asshole

He’s doing everything he can to try and recover from the publicity nightmare that has resulted in his abuse of girlfriend Rihanna. And Chris Brown is looking for a fresh start with a new staff.

The “Kiss Kiss” singer is said to have fired everyone from his manager Tina Davis to his lawyer Mark Geragos and PR guy Mike Sitrick in hopes that he can shove the blame on them for the poorly-handled aftermath of his domestic dispute.


As an interesting sidenote, Davis is said to be the woman who sent the sexy text message to Brown that started the whole fight between him and the “Take a Bow” singer, though she insists that they were just “manager and client.”

Chris is also blaming his [now former] team for the way he’s been perceived. An insider revealed, “Chris wanted to apologize [for the alleged beat-down] much earlier . . . and he was upset when the apology was finally released because it sounded so insincere.”

As for Rihanna, a source told press, “She hasn’t seen him since they got back from Miami. She hasn’t made up her mind yet . . . she’s not completely sure she’s done with him yet.”

Rihanna's Family Reacts to Charges

Just hours after Chris Brown was charged with two felonies – assault and making criminal threats – in the alleged beating of his girlfriend, Rihanna, one of the Barbados-born pop star's relatives tells PEOPLE, "It's about time."

"He should be in jail," Rihanna's relative says of Brown, 19, who faces up to four years and eight months in state prison. "He deserves whatever he gets."

Contacted in Barbados, Rihanna's father reacted with surprise and displeasure to detailed reports leaked earlier today about the alleged bloody assault on his daughter.

"I was annoyed. I never hit my daughter," says Ronald Fenty, 55. "Why should he hit her? Why would any one do that? I was crazy, but I don't know the situation and I wasn't there."

Rihanna, 21, and Brown have gotten back together since the incident, much to the dismay of her family. "No one wants them back together," the relative told PEOPLE on Monday. "I don't ever want her to go through this again."

Can Someone Recommend A Good Psych Doctor To Alien Princess Please

MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind of a VERY SICK report. According to the National Enquirer, Rihanna has reportedly spoke to friends about Chris Brown abusing her.

Here’s what one of Rihanna’s pals reportedly told the mag:
”Rihanna was applying makeup to her right eye, which I noticed looked puffy and discolored. Her friend said, ‘Your eye looks [EXPLETIVE] up! He’s an [EXPLETIVE]! Why do you put up with him and let him hit you?’

“Rihanna told her, ‘It’s not his fault. When he hurts me, he’s a beast, but then he turns into my angel … He’ll hit me and then feel bad afterwards, but then he turns into the sweetest man and becomes my angel. He’ll cry like a little baby when he makes it up to me, and that’s the part I love.’”

Old News.... But They Are Definitely The New Ike And Tina

Rihanna may have spent the weekend with Chris Brown, but her family isn't quite ready for the tumultuous couple to reunite.

"Everyone wants them to take a break, to cool off," a relative of Rihanna tells PEOPLE. "No one wants them back together."

Family thought that the relationship was over after Brown allegedly battered Rihanna on Feb. 8. The couple went their own ways for awhile – he went home, while she recuperated in Barbados and Mexico – but the separation was short-lived.

The pair reunited in Miami last weekend, spending time at the Star Island mansion of Sean "Diddy" Combs. A source close to the couple told PEOPLE that the couple was "definitely together" and working on a reconciliation.

"I'm concerned," continues the relative. "I don't want her to make a mistake, and I don't want her to ever go through his again."

But the entire trip wasn't devoted to the relationship. While in Miami, Brown did some recording at a studio designed by Lenny Kravitz located in the Setai hotel. "He was here to record," a source told PEOPLE. He also spent some time Jet skiing at the beach.

The couple reportedly left Miami early Monday morning on an private jet bound for California. Brown was photographed landing in Burbank.

Alien Princess Pregnant?????

Rihanna was hiding a shocking secret when Chris Brown brutally beat her. In the March 9 issue of Star — on sale now — we exclusively report that days before the terrifying incident,

Rihanna consulted an ob-gyn at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after confiding to close friends that she suspected she was pregnant with Chris' baby.

Wearing sunglasses and dressed in all black, she appeared nervous and upset. "She was extremely fidgety. She seemed totally uncomfortable," an eyewitness at the doctor's office tells Star.

With their relationship already on rocky ground, Rihanna feared a pregnancy could be the last straw and Chris might dump her.
"She was scared he would react badly," says an insider.

But Rihanna did not get the chance to tell her boyfriend of a year about her trip to the doctor. Before she got a chance to say anything, Chris beat her black and blue after she tried to grab his cellphone to read a text message he had just received.

Battered Wife Syndrome????

Rihanna was reportedly scheduled to be one of the many surprise special performer at last night’s Academy Awards, but the New York Post reports that she pulled out following her alleged beating by boyfriend Chris Brown.

And while the bruised beauty understandly opted for a low-key 21st birthday last week, it appears Chris is trying to slime his way back into her life. In an attempt to woo her, the woman-beating crooner sent her a diamond bracelet and necklace as well as an iPod Touch.

A source tells the New York Daily News: “Chris called Rihanna to wish her a happy birthday. He’s absolutely trying to get back into her good graces. He knows he’s very much in the doghouse right now, and is doing everything he can to show her how sorry he is.”

So, is it working? Sadly, yes. Adds the insider: “Rihanna so wanted Chris with her on her big day, but obviously realizes why they can’t be together right now. But it’s becoming more and more clear that she can’t be without him.”

Rihanna -- The Face of a Battered Woman

Los Angeles police have launched an internal investigation to determine who leaked a picture of a bruised and battered Rihanna to the media.

The close-up photo of the R&B singer -- with contusions on her forehead and below her eyes, and cuts on her lip -- was published on the entertainment Web site TMZ on Thursday.

Rihanna, 21, was allegedly attacked by her boyfriend, singer Chris Brown, on a Los Angeles street before the two were to perform at the Grammy Awards on February 8.

"The unauthorized release of a domestic violence photograph immediately generated an internal investigation," an L.A. police spokesman said in a statement. "The Los Angeles Police Department takes seriously its duty to maintain the confidentiality of victims of domestic violence. A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including termination."

The chief investigator in the case had told CNN earlier that authorities had tried to guard against leaks. Detective Deshon Andrews said he had kept the case file closely guarded and that no copies had been made of the original photos and documents.

Brown was arrested on February 8 in connection with the case and and booked on suspicion of making criminal threats.

Authorities are trying to determine whether Brown should face domestic violence-related charges.

Brown apologized for the incident this week: "Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired," the 19-year-old said in a statement released by his spokesman. "I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person."

Alien Is Staying Under The Radar

Rihanna is on the move and staying under the radar.

E! News has learned that the recuperating R&B star has left her native Barbados after spending time with her family and friends in the wake of the Feb. 8 fight that left her hospitalized and Chris Brown under arrest.

As we originally reported, her family had the 20-year-old whisked to Barbados early last week. Over the weekend, Rihanna's father, Ronald Fenty, told People he had seen his "bruised" daughter there on Feb. 12.

Now, a source tells E! News: "She's not in Barbados."

Rihanna, who canceled two shows in Asia last week, currently has no scheduled public appearances. Her rep couldn't be reached for immediate comment.

Brown's publicist says the embattled singer has no comment beyond the apology he issued over the weekend.

Chris Brown Theatened To Kill Alien

Earlier today, the Los Angeles district attorney asked police detectives to dig up more evidence for their case against Chris Brown.

The police are getting cooperation from Rihanna, and what she has told them so far is chilling.

A source close to the investigation tells E! News exclusively that Rihanna has alleged to police that Brown choked her while threatening to kill her and, subsequently, she lost consciousness.

They began squabbling after leaving Clive Davis' pre-Grammy party late Saturday. Shortly after midnight, things blew up. Brown pulled his silver Lamborghini to the side of a street in L.A.'s Hancock Park neighborhood. That's when, per the source, Rihanna grabbed the car keys and tossed them out the window, sending Brown into a rage.

He tried in vain to find the keys, then came back to the car, put his hands around her neck and, according to the insider, said, "I'm going to kill you!"

According to the source, the 20-year-old "Disturbia" singer told police that she lost consciousness, and when she awoke, Brown had fled.

According to the source, her right eye was blackened and badly swollen and she had hand prints on her arms. The responding officers were so concerned about her, they drove Rihanna to the hospital in their squad car instead of waiting for an ambulance.

Officers took two sets of photographs of the banged-up singer, one at the scene and the second after she was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for treatment. Those photos were presumably among the evidence presented to the district attorney.

After being treated for her injuries, police escorted her down a rear elevator and into a waiting Mercedes, the source says.

Brown, 19, was subsequently booked on suspicion of making criminal threats. He was released after posting $50,000 bail.

His lawyer, Mark Geragos, has not responded to repeated requests for comment on the allegations. Brown's publicist also has not commented.

A spokeswoman for Rihanna declined to comment specifically on details of the fight and the arrest and stuck to her earlier statement from Sunday: "Rihanna is well. Thank you for concern and support."

Alien Battered News!!!!

According to a source close to the investigation, Rihanna made the 911 call to police after Brown "fled on foot" from the scene following the attack. Two officers from the LAPD Wilshire Division found Rihanna in Brown's rented silver Lamborghini "beaten really badly and hysterical."

Brown had taken the keys to the car with him and Rihanna was basically left on the side of the road with the car.

"Rihanna didn't want anyone to touch her, she was in so much pain," the source says.

Rihanna, whose full name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty, had visible bruising and scrapes on her face and what appeared to be bite marks on her body. Officers took her to the emergency room at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center for treatment.

A member of Rihanna's inner circle tells E! News her family is making plans to get her out of L.A.: "They want to get her back to Barbados. They want to keep her away from Chris right now."

...

Although the Los Angeles Police Department issued a statement Sunday night saying Brown had been arrested on suspicion of making criminal threats and could face additional charges now that the case had been forwarded to the district attorney, prosecutors tell E! News that the announcement was premature and the investigation is ongoing.

"LAPD are telling some reporters that we received the evidence but we have not received anything yet," says Jane Robison, spokeswoman for the county district attorney. "Normally it would come in today, maybe this afternoon, but no, they haven't presented it and I don't know when they will."

Robison says the probe is still continuing—unusual for such cases—as detectives want to make sure they do a thorough job, given that a celebrity is involved.

Brown's camp, including newly hired criminal attorney Mark Geragos (who has represented the likes of Michael Jackson and Winona Ryder), has remained mum on the incident.

Meanwhile, LAPD spokeswoman April Harding is shooting down a TMZ report from earlier today (which has since been corrected) that claimed Brown used "a deadly weapon" during his alleged attack.

"There is absolutely no truth to that story. If it had been a deadly weapon involved, he would have been charged with a deadly weapons charge," says Harding.

Chris Brown Arrested

Chris Brown has been arrested for reportedly attacking Rihanna.

The 'Run It' star handed himself in to police after officers responded to a phone call at around 12.30am on Sunday morning (08.02.09) from an unnamed woman who accused the 19-year-old singer of hurting her.

Los Angeles police officials have declined to identify the caller, but the Los Angeles Times newspaper claim the 'Umbrella' singer was the victim.

A statement released by the Los Angeles Police Department said: "The identity of the victim will not be released. Any victim who's involved in a domestic violence incident is entitled to confidentiality.

"Mr. Brown and the alleged victim became involved in an argument. After stopping his car, Brown and the woman got out and the argument escalated. The woman suffered visible injuries and identified Brown as her attacker."

The incident is alleged to have occurred during an early morning argument in Chris' car on a quiet street in Los Angeles' upmarket Hancock Park neighbourhood.

Chris was not at the scene when police arrived.
