Chris Brown withdraws from NBA All-Stars
A day after Chris Brown was booked on felony criminal threats charges, he pulled out of the NBA All-Stars, a league spokesperson confirmed to Usmagazine.com. “Chris Brown has withdrawn from NBA All-Star events,” the NBA rep told Us Monday. The singer was scheduled to participate in the basketball association’s All-Star festivities in Phoenix Sunday and was also planning to play in a celebrity game two days prior to the event.
Brown turned himself in to Los Angeles police Sunday night for an alleged battery on a woman, who was later learned to be his girlfriend, singer Rihanna. Brown, 19, has also had his ads with Wrigley gum suspended after the incident. The case is being presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office. Additional charges, including those of domestic violence, may be filed.
No more Wrigley ads, harumph!

I’m not putting the blame all on him yet.. something strange and awful took place, sent him off his rocker and she knew the right buttons to push and where to buy the super-powered jet fuel.
