Chris Brown Gets Threats, and Denied; Rihanna Gets Subpoenaed

For Chris Breezy, sh*t is getting real in the field like Holyfield.

Word on the street is that Chris is "paranoid". According to the Chicago Sun-Times, after receiving what’s considered legitimate death threats following his February 8th incident with Rihanna., Brown has had to step up his security detail. A source says the threats have made Brown “totally paranoid,” especially considering there have been “indications the potential assassin could be disguised as a paparazzi.”


Billboard is reporting that Chris Brown lost a bid to delay a preliminary hearing in his assault case, which his attorney argued should wait for a related California Supreme Court decision. Court records show the appeal was rejected Tuesday (June 9); no reason was given.

At the hearing, Rihanna will be present. Representatives from the L.A. district attorney's office placed a subpoena in Rihanna's hand Tuesday during a prearranged meeting at her attorney’s office, lawyer Donald Etra said. The order requires the 21-year-old performer to show up to the downtown courthouse June 22, but it is not a guarantee that she will testify.
