Chris Brown’s legal troubles for beating ex-girlfriend Rihanna appeared to be over in June when an L.A. County judge sentenced him to five years probation, six months of community service and one-year of domestic violence counseling.
But the hip hop singer isn’t in the clear yet.
Chris was back in court Wednesday because Judge Jeanine Pirro hasn’t signed off on her sentencing. She is waiting for Chris, 20, to produce documents of his plans for the court-ordered 1,400 hours of community service. He has to appear back in court on Aug. 27 to lay out a detailed plan for community service or else he could face a tougher penalty, such as jail time.
So the apology tape Chris released last month isn’t enough to show remorse for beating, biting and threatening the life of pop star Rihanna during the couple’s quarrel the night before the Grammy Awards in February.
Maybe Chris should work on a new video with the newlyweds who recently gained fame for dancing down the aisle to Brown’s “Forever” hit song. Chris’ songs have been blacklisted by radio stations since the incident with his ex. Wrigley’s immediately pulled its Doublemint Gum commercial featuring Chris dancing to his “Forever” song. His court fight and blacklisting is leading to financial troubles, but he is working on a new album Graffiti.
But Chris is back on the charts and has raked in sales for his “Forever” song because it was played as Jill and Kevin Heinz and their wedding party danced up the aisle during the couple’s wedding last month.
The couple is using the new publicity to turn attention toward their domestic violence cause. They are asking for donations on JKweddingdance.com to benefit the Sheila Wellstone Institute, which has several programs to end violence against women of all races. Donations can be made directly on the institute’s site.
The “Forever” singer should contact the Wellstone Institute to see how he can lend his voice to the cause. It would certainly count toward well-spent community service hours and show the female judge deciding his fate that he truly is remorseful for his crime against a woman.By Teneshia LaFaye
