Drake’s Tour Bus Robbed Of $3,000,000 In Jewelry But Police Catch The Thief


Drake
   
The tour bus of rapper Drake was robbed of approximately $3,000,000 in jewelry at a concert stop in Phoenix, Arizona. The jewelry belonged to Drake’s DJ, Future The Prince. The robbery occurred while Drake was on stage performing. No word on whether the jewelry, housed in a suitcase on the tour bus, is insured. However, a perpetrator has been arrested for the crime.


Travion King
 
Travion King was detained for stealing the briefcase of jewelry. It is being reported all of the jewelry has been accounted for by police. It is very unwise to travel with that sum in jewelry with no proper security. The theft occurred at the hands of a party who knew Drake and Future The Prince’s schedule and the value of the jewelry.

The Hollywood Drug Epidemic: Stone Temple Pilots Frontman Scott Weiland Latest To Die From Drug Induced Heart Attack


Scott Weiland was addicted to crack and cocaine. He recently spoke in an interview about taking crack cocaine.

Scott Weiland, the former lead singer of the 1990s rock group the Stone Temple Pilots and the 2000's band, Velvet Revolver, has died from a drug induced heart attack. He was 48-years old. Weiland was found dead on his tour bus in Minneapolis. He was in town to perform with his new band the Wildabouts. Weiland's brother Michael also died of a drug overdose in 2007.


Whitney Houston

Weiland overdosed much like the late music legend, Whitney Houston, who died of a cocaine related heart attack at the same age. Legendary singer Michael Jackson died at age 49 from a drug overdose that led to cardiac arrest. So many people in Hollywood have overdosed due to drug and or alcohol poisoning, when they succumbed to their addictions. It has become a regular occurrence. Lives cut drastically short due to substance abuse. There exists a Hollywood drug epidemic that keeps growing worse.

 

Michael Jackson

My dad, who is one of the top musicologists in the world that has interviewed many famous recording artists over the course of decades, recently told me that a musician he had a discussion with informed him that some singers take drugs like cocaine in order to give them an extra push when they go on stage to perform, especially on tour, but end up addicted. When an artist is on the road night after night, they get tired and performances can become lackluster. So, some decide to take cocaine for energy and to put on a lively, uninhibited show. Cocaine is also often used in Hollywood as a so-called "party drug." They pass it around like candy (also referred to as "nose candy). However, it is dangerous. Either way you slice it, cocaine leads to addiction that often kills.

Woman Posts Injuries She Says She Received When Chris Brown Threw Her From His Tour Bus (Photos)


Woman says Chris Brown roughed her up and threw her off his tour bus

A woman has released photos of injuries she states she sustained when singer Chris Brown threw her from his tour bus, for refusing to give his security her mobile phone. Brown has been burned in the past when groupies took secret photos and videos of him, then uploaded them online without his permission. Brown and others need to stay away from groupies. There is such a thing as HIV.


Chris Brown

The woman's story has one major flaw. The security video released of the tour bus shows her seemingly running from the tour bus (she says she was pushed out). However, the security video shows Brown walking to and getting in the tour bus after the woman was allegedly pushed out of it. This indicates he is not the one who allegedly ejected her from the bus.
Brown is seen on the tape tossing her mobile phone across the street. Brown has denied any wrongdoing in the case. He is blaming the incident on the woman seeking a big payday via targeting him. Brown is expecting a cash grab in the form of a civil lawsuit. Police are investigating the incident and will reveal their findings shortly.

Chris Brown Under Investigation For Assaulting Woman Outside A Strip Club (Video)


R&B singer Chris Brown is in more trouble again this week. Fresh off probation this year from the 2009 Rihanna domestic violence felony and a court victory last week that awarded him joint custody of his 1-year-old daughter, Royalty, in what is a contentious child custody case, Brown is in trouble with the law. The singer is under investigation for assaulting a woman outside a strip club.

Brown and his friends, rappers French Montana and Fetty Wap, filmed a music video in Denver, Colorado at a local strip club. After the shoot was over, the woman in question was allowed on his tour bus in the presence of Brown and his entourage. A video obtained by TMZ shows the woman leaving the bus, appearing to run across the street (she states Brown threw her off the bus).


 


Chris Brown: I threw your phone, not you!

However, Brown got on the tour bus, after she was seen exiting it. She approaches the bus again and a man believed to be Brown is seen getting on the tour bus, going up to the door, then seconds later throwing her phone across the street. She goes across the street again and picks up the phone off the ground. Moments later another man leaves the tour bus, crosses the street and puts her shoes on the sidewalk. The woman steps into her shoes and the video ends.

It sounds like she tried to take pictures/video without permission and was ejected from the tour bus (previously, a groupie Brown brought home from the club, secretly filmed him while he slept, after they had sex and uploaded it to the internet Karrueche Tran Posts Photo With Chris Brown After Cheating Allegations And Video Surfaces [Video]). However, the woman went to police and stated Brown assaulted her by throwing her off the bus and her mobile phone as well, breaking it during the incident (but the video shows Brown did not assault her - he threw her phone). Police have now named Brown a "person of interest" in the investigation." Once again, Brown's friends are getting him into trouble.

Man Arrested By Police States Birdman Is Behind The Attempted Murder Of Rapper Lil Wayne

 

Lil Wayne and Birdman

Tour manager, Jimmy Winfrey, has stated in criminal court documents that Cash Money Records CEO, Birdman, real name Bryan Williams, commissioned the attempted murder of his top rapper, Lil Wayne. Winfrey stated in court, “Birdman’s financial dispute with Lil Wayne is what ultimately led to the shooting…Birdman should be held liable as a party to the crime."


Birdman and gay rapper Yung Thug, who is one of his boyfriends. Jimmy Winfrey is Young Thug's tour manager.

Birdman has been denying Winfrey's claims. However, new testimony and evidence keeps surfacing that has repeatedly cast doubt on his innocence. Birdman is currently in a financial dispute with Lil Wayne, who sued him for withholding $50,000,000 in royalties, that he has been spending on himself to live lavishly. Lil Wayne is in financial trouble, as he and his company, Young Money (an offshoot of Cash Money), are being sued for millions of dollars by creditors for non-payment of debts.

STORY SOURCE

Lil Wayne Alleged Bus Shooter Goes Full Snitch ... Birdman Should Be Behind Bars

8/6/2015 12:04 PM PDT BY TMZ STAFF - The man charged with shooting up Lil Wayne's tour bus has blown the whistle on Birdman ... saying he should be behind bars too. Jimmy Winfrey claims in new court docs he shouldn't be singled out for the crime, when "[Birdman's] financial dispute with [Lil Wayne] is what ultimately led to the shooting." So, Winfrey argues, "[Birdman] should be held liable as a party to the crime." He's not specifically saying Birdman ordered the hit, but essentially that's what he's saying...

How Will Nelly's Drug And Gun Arrest Impact His Reality Show 'Nellyville'


Nelly and girlfriend Shantel Jackson

Rapper and reality star Nelly was recently arrested on gun and drug charges in Tennessee. Police know tour buses often carry drug paraphernalia and drugs and as a result often stop musicians traveling from town to town. Nelly, real name Cornell Haynes, has denied the drugs and guns found during the surprise search belong to him.

Nellyville

Nelly released a statement revealing he will be careful in future regarding the people he associates with who brought the illegal items onto his tour bus. Nelly stated, "I feel the need to take responsibility for my choices in needing to be more aware of all the people I associate with and allow onto my property. While my instinct of course, is to be accessible to my friends, fans and acquaintances, the last thing I would want to do is compromise the respect and admiration of my friends, family and fans."

In the meantime, no news has been released by television network B.E.T. regarding what impact Nelly's arrest will have on his hit reality show "Nellyville." However, the arrest would certainly bring in increased ratings for season two, as the case works its way through the court system.

Chris Brown Had Something In His System When He Knocked Up Nia Amey


Chris Brown

R&B singer Chris Brown had something in his system when he knocked up nude model Nia Amey and it wasn't Viagra. The beleaguered singer is now the father of a 9-month-old baby girl, Royalty. Amey was also being reckless to the point she could not initially figure out if the baby's father was her now ex-husband, whom she cheated on with Chris Brown or her now ex-boyfriend, Brazil, who was devastated to find out he is not the child's father.

Wild living consisting of drugs, alcohol abuse and promiscuous sex is not a good combination. Brown is already seeking to have child support payments reduced, as Amey and her ex-boyfriend blabbing to the press cost Brown his long-term relationship with girlfriend Karrueche Tran.

It has also brought Brown intense criticism from his fans. Many of Brown's fans were vouching for him on social networking, stating he did not knock up Amey, but later found out he did indeed impregnate her. Brown sees it as his private life, but once you are in the public domain people will ask questions. That's to be expected.

Chris Brown’s Bodyguard Found Guilty Of Assault In Washington


Chris Brown

Chris Hollosy, the 35-year-old bodyguard of singer Chris Brown, has been found guilty of assault in Washington, DC. He faces 6-months in jail and a $1,000 fine. The judge-rendered verdict stems from an incident in October 2013, where local man Parker Adams, followed 24-year-old Brown to his tour bus and photobombed the singer, then tried to board his tour bus, constituting trespassing. Hollosy admitted punching Adams because he attempted to board Brown’s tour bus.

In Florida, you could have drop kicked him, then moonwalked on him for trespassing on your property and not been arrested, as it would be self-defense. However, things are different in Washington, DC, as this case illustrates. Adams is suing Brown and Hollosy for $3,000,000.

Chris Brown’s mother, Joyce Hawkins and the singer’s girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, made an appearance at his assault trial in Washington, DC on Friday. Both women and Brown’s aunt looked sad entering the courthouse, as Brown is currently incarcerated and has been for the past six weeks.

The singer is not doing well behind bars, over a case that has a number of discrepancies, as well as an accompanying $3,000,000 cash grab of a lawsuit filed by Parker Adams. Brown was stalked to his tour bus by Adams who photobombed him, then tried to board the crooner’s tour bus, also known as trespassing.

Adams first accused Brown’s bodyguard Brian Hollosy of punching him in the face. Then he said it was Hollosy and Brown that punched him. The police report was changed as a result, which Brown’s lawyer Mark Geragos naturally took exception to, as it indicates fraud on the alleged victim’s part. Changing his story is reminiscent of this scene in “Rush Hour” where Chris Tucker‘s character James Carter wasn‘t sure who kicked him (kidding). 

Brown’s trial is expected to wrap up today. If the case, which is based on hearsay, is resolved in his favor, Brown will be free of all penalties in Washington. If he is convicted, Brown faces 6 months in jail and a $1,000 fine. Brown must also face Judge James Brandlin in Los Angeles, as the Washington case trigged a probation violation from the 2009 Rihanna domestic violence case.

Trial Of Chris Brown's Bodyguard Begins In Washington


Chris Brown's October 2013 mug shot

The assault trial of Chris Hollosy, bodyguard to singer Chris Brown, began in Washington yesterday. Brown and Hollosy stand accused of punching 20-year-old Parker Adams, who followed the singer to his tour bus after a club appearance, photobombed him and attempted to board the star's tour bus.

Hollosy is being tried separately from Brown in a case being heard by judge, not jury. Brown's lawyer Mark Geragos contends the singer did not hit Adams. Geragos also stated Adams admitted Brown did not hit him. However, an initial report was changed to state Brown hit Adams and the police officer is now under investigation.

Hollosy's lawyer Bernard Grimm accused Adams of filing suit in the matter in an attempt to "simply to get rich" due to the fact the dollar amount listed in the lawsuit, $3,000,000, far exceeds his medical bills. Adams claimed ignorance and stated it was not his idea to sue. However, it could not have been filed without his consent.

Brown's trial is scheduled to commence shortly and could have serious implications on his probation from the Rihanna domestic violence case. Brown currently sits in a Virgina jail and has not been handling incarceration well. He dislikes the food, was upset in the cafeteria and is depressed. The prospect of potentially spending four-years in jail is weighing heavily on him.

A Healthier Looking Chris Brown Rejects Plea Deal In Washington Assault Case


 

Chris Brown

R&B singer Chris Brown made an appearance in Washington, D.C. court yesterday to answer to assault charges stemming from a November 2013 incident. Brown interrupted his Los Angeles rehab stay to attend the Washington hearing, where he pled not guilty to assault.

20-year-old Isaac Adams Parker followed Brown from a club concert and illegally tried to board his tour bus, after photobombing the singer, who was posing with two female fans. Brown’s bodyguard Christopher Hollosy is said to have punched Parker in the mouth for harassment and trespassing. Both Brown and Hollosy were arrested after Parker called police.
 

Many online are noting, Brown is starting to look like he used to a few years ago, due to his stint in rehab, which proves the site's point (Chris Brown Finally Heeds Site Suggestions And Heads To Rehab After Assault Arrest In Washington). He has gained weight, after becoming somewhat emaciated. Brown looks healthier and his features more youthful, matching his 24-years. Rehab has its merits. It gives people a chance to detox, in addition to learning life tools to help conquer addiction.

The destructive influence of on-and-off again girlfriend Rihanna culminated into a terrible fight in 2009 after a Grammy Awards party, which sent him into a downward spiral. Rihanna began hitting Brown in his rented Lamborghini over cheating allegations made against him, though she herself was cheating on him at the time and he snapped. Brown began hitting her back and was arrested. 



Chris Brown and Rihannna

Brown pled guilty in the Rihanna case and was given 5-years probation, which was violated by the judge in November 2013 over the Washington assault case. Brown and his bodyguard are set to face the Washington court again on February 20, 2014 for another hearing in the case. 

Both Brown and Rihanna come from homes were domestic violence was present and it contributed to their volatile relationship. Brown and Rihanna have been in the limelight for nearly 10-years and began dating soon after their debuts, repeatedly breaking up and reuniting. 


Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran

Their most recent reunion ended in disaster, as Rihanna wanted to marry Brown, who simply did not want to walk down the aisle with her. He labeled her an industry “ho” having sex with numerous famous and connected men (for career favors). Brown promptly went back to girlfriend Karrueche Tran, who has been a calming influence on his life.

Chris Brown To Face Probation Officer Over Washington Assault Arrest And Potential 4-Years In Jail


Chris Brown

Singer Chris Brown, who was released yesterday from an overnight stay in a Washington, DC jail, is scheduled to face his probation officer over the arrest. Brown and his bodyguard, Chris Hollosy, were arrested after a man, Isaac Adams Parker, followed them, then tried to board the singer's tour bus without permission and was punched in the face. 


Parker stated Brown punched him and broke his nose, but the original police report listed his bodyguard Hollosy, as the one who threw the punch whilst protecting his client. Parker should have been detained for trespassing, as it is illegal to enter someone's home, car or tour bus without their consent. The law must be applied evenly, regardless of who is involved in the proceedings. 


Brown's probation officer could opt not to violate his probation, as the Washington assault case was downgraded from a felony to a misdemeanor. However, 2-months ago, Brown ranted against the district attorney on Twitter, which I advised against on Twitter back in August, as not being a good idea. The district attorney may now jump at the chance to revoke his probation (which is what I was alluding to on Twitter two months ago). Brown's lawyer, Mark Geragos, has been successful thus far in addressing legal matters concerning the singer and will certainly go to work on this matter as well.

Chris Brown Drops $25,000 In The Club As Groupies Follow Him And Karrueche Tran

R&B badboy, Chris Brown, spent $25,000 at the Pink Elephant night club in New York, while on a date with girlfriend Karrueche Tran, whom he kicked Rihanna to the curb for a few weeks ago. As usual, when Brown shows up, so do the relentless groupies, not fans, who want a piece of him and followed the singer into his tour bus. However, Tran took care of that, as when she arrived at his tour bus, they had to hit the road.

Meanwhile, ex-girlfriend Rihanna continues to have friends spy on Brown and Tran, while she monitors their social networking pages for updates. As stated recently, Rihanna's been complaining in Hollywood about Tran and Brown's reconciliation and that it occurred so quickly. Give it a little time, she's going to start chasing after him again. She always does, then they argue and split up each time.
