Chris Brown Accused of Assaulting His Own Concertgoers
R&B singer Chris Brown is being accused of assaulting several of his concertgoers in a new lawsuit out of Houston, which according to local news station NBC DFW, states the alleged victims had just “congratulated” the singer on a “good show” before Brown “remembered” that they were “beefing.’”
The suit is being brought by four different men, according to the outlet, and in addition to Brown, was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and post-traumatic stress order during a 2014 rehab stint, they’re also suing three members of his entourage and the entertainment company Live Nation. The four men accused Brown and his team of “throwing chairs at them and repeatedly kicking, stomping, and beating them” after they attended the second night of Brown’s 11:11 tour in Fort Worth, Texas.
The men in the lawsuit claimed they were invited backstage to Brown’s VIP area after the show, where one of them exchanged the following alleged pleasantries with Brown: “Good show; it’s been a while, but I’m glad to see you are doing well. It’s been a long time since I have seen you,” to which Brown supposedly replied that he appreciated the sentiment. Things went left, according to NBC DFW’s description of the lawsuit, when someone in the entourage reminded Brown that he was supposed to be “beefing” with one or more of the men.
