The media is reporting that a song penned by Chris called “Geronimo“ has made the final cut for Kelly Rowland’s third solo studio album. The song was initially sent to Brandy to be included on her new album however Rowland secured the track. Speaking on Twitter to the Producer of “Geronimo” (Los Da Mystro), Rowland stated,

- KELLY__ROWLAND @Lonnys_world NOT HAPPENING!!!!!! WHAT UP!!!!! I can’t stop listening to “Geronimo”!!!!
- Lonnys_world @KELLY__ROWLAND OMG! That song came out so hot… I can’t wait, to hear it again. You KILLED it!!!

Breezy fans will have heard the song before as Chris streamed it over the internet during an online streaming session. Check out Chris’s version below.

It was announced today that there will not be a Graffiti release party at the M2 Ultra Lounge, NY as announced on the web this week. According to Planet CB an advertisement found its way onto the internet announcing the party but officials for Chris Brown have confirmed that it is indeed, fake.

THE GRAFFITI ALBUM RELEASE PARTY THAT’S BEING ADVERTISED FOR M2 ULTRA LOUNGE ON DEC. 9TH , 2009 IN NEW YORK CITY IS A FALSE ADVERTISEMENT… WE WILL BE SURE TO LET YOU KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY ALBUM RELEASE PARTIES GOING ON FOR THE PUBLIC… CHRIS BROWN WILL ‘NOT” BE ATTENDING THIS PARTY..

The NYPost is claiming that Chris Brown and Rihanna checked into the same hotel this past Friday and possibly reunited. You know me, I don’t believe anything until I see proof. So, I’m going to dismiss this as a rumor unless I get some physical evidence. LOL! Anywhere, here’s the NYPost article:

Could they be making sweet music again?

Just days after Chris Brown publicly apologized for his February beating of then-girlfriend Rihanna, the two spent the weekend at the same luxury Midtown hotel under a cloak of secrecy, The Post has learned.

The pretty “Umbrella” singer and “Run It” crooner — who is barred from seeing his former squeeze by a restraining order issued in Los Angeles — checked into separate rooms at the Trump International Hotel & Tower on Friday, hotel sources said.

They spent the next two days coming and going in separate chauffeured vehicles from the underground garage of the 52-story Columbus Circle building.

The two appear to have taken great measures to avoid public exposure, including the use of decoy vehicles to throw off reporters and photographers. As of last night, the secretive performers hadn’t been seen together.

Supposed friends of Rihanna say that the situation with Chris Brown in which he was sentenced 180 days of community labor for assaulting her, has been hard on the songbird. Chris has been given five years of probation and is not permitted to be within 50 yards of her [10 yards on events]. This has reportedly made Rihanna quite unhappy.

A source tells Now magazine, “It’s so hard for her. She knows her family would freak out if she told them she wants to get on with Chris, so she has to hide her feelings.”

The source also says that Rihanna was absolutely terrified to testify against Brown, “She’s been a nervous wreck for weeks as she was so terrified that Chris would hate her after she testified. Whenever she starts crying, she has to pretend that she’s been having flashbacks to the attacks. But it isn’t that. It’s because she misses him and can’t believe it came to this after everything they had going. She’s mad with him, but at the same time she blames herself.”

According to the source, the nerves were uncontrollable before the trial, “She couldn’t eat in the days before the trial. Her stomach was in knots and she was shaking. Whenever I see her out, she always has a drink in her hand – mostly champagne, but sometimes beer or shots. She’s in pain and is trying to numb it out to the best of her ability.”

I call BS, but hey - you never know…

Singer Chris Brown may have scared off some women by beating up his ex, Rihanna, but Kanye West’s on-and-off girlfriend, Amber Rose, apparently isn’t one of them.

Brown and Rose locked lips at the July 4 White Party thrown by Sean (Diddy) Combs and Ashton Kutcher in Beverly Hills, spies tell the Daily News.

Brown, 20, arrived at the party with singer Teyana Taylor, an 18-year-old Rihanna look-alike, but is said to have hooked up quickly with Rose.

“Diddy announced the deejay would do a tribute to Michael Jackson,” said a guest. “Chris did an amazing impression of Michael’s moonwalk. It wasn’t long before he was dancing with Amber.”

Later, as the party wound down, the pair nestled on a couch in the backyard of the Beverly Hills mansion.

“They were holding hands and making out in the shadows,” said a witness. “She had her hand on his leg.”

Taylor is said to have been irked by the amount of time Brown spent with Rose, but still accompanied him to an after-party at the club Guys.

There, Brown again got upclose and personal with Rose, who is 26.

“They were kissing on the dance floor in front of Teyana,” said a witness. “But he and Amber left separately.”

Some wondered whether the flagrant display was a defiant message both to Rihanna and West. Rihanna dumped Brown, who last month pleaded guilty to assaulting the Grammy winner.

West, who has said he was “devastated” by Brown’s attack on a woman who was like “my little sister,” has run hot and cold on Rose lately. Although he reportedly broke up with her last month, they came together at last week’s BET Awards show.

A rep for Brown had no comment. Reps for Rose and West couldn’t be reached.

While Chris Brown’s dancer, B Shaw, claims that Jay-Z was the reason Chris was unable to perform last night, our partner GossipOnThis.com claims to have exclusive insider information that paints a very different picture:

“Chris Brown was supposed to open the show but BET executives were not agreeing to let Chris go on stage after they had already established that he was performing,” a source revealed to Gossip On This. “A lot of reports were saying that he was using this as a way to rebuild his image. So at the last minute, he was pulled. … After 3 days of rehearsal, they pulled Chris Brown from the show…”

SOURCE: GossipOnThis

Either way, BET was foolish for not allowing Chris Brown to perform. According to multiple reports, the Jackson family wanted Chris Brown to perform a tribute to Michael. After all, no one would have done it better. The 2009 BET Awards were truly a mess. Hopefully the 2010 brings something way better.

Rest In Peace Michael Jackson - the greatest there ever was, and ever will be.

Chris Brown’s dancer posted a follow-up to the story we broke yesterday saying:

“So Jay-Z tells BET that if chris performs that he will not perform. Ummmm…….. Wait for it……..WHO CARES!!!!!“

Hypothetical question: If you were a singer accused of beating your girlfriend to a pulp and your preliminary hearing was set for Monday … would your next release be a song called “Smash” ?????

By the way … Monday will be extremely interesting. Rihanna is set to take the stand and give the blow-by-blow.

The big question — will Chris Brown’s lawyer, Mark Geragos, cross-examine Rihanna. As we reported, Rihanna was aggressive with Brown in the car, striking him repeatedly after seeing a text message on Brown’s phone from another woman.

Chris Brown is secretly knee-deep in a campaign to resurrect his image and his target is a certain group of 12 people who will judge his fate. And guess what — it’s working.

We’ve been talking to people in Brown’s world and here’s what we know. Brown — who hired Sitrick and Company, the crisis management firm for which he more than qualifies as a client — has been calculating every public move he’s made over the last 6 weeks. From the NBA final game last Sunday … to the “I’m-not-a-monster” video…. to the antics with Omarion — Sitrick and others have tried to make the images of Rihanna’s bruised and battered face disappear — or at least recede into the background.

One source says Brown has been told going out clubbing could kill his chances with a jury — it’s just too flip. For the most part, he’s obeyed them, although they weren’t happy when Brown hit a club with the Kardashian sisters and Bow Wow.

Ironically, Rihanna has actually helped Brown by resurrecting her glamorous self and getting on with her life.

Short story: We’re told the Sitrick and Company game plan is the opposite of what many lawyers would urge — going underground until the trial. They want Brown out and about, resuming life within limits.

Rihanna takes the stand next Monday to kick off Brown’s preliminary hearing. Should be interesting.

SOURCE: Obviously, TMZ

…and what’s wrong with rebuilding your image after the media did it’s best to try to tarnish it?

First off let me start off by saying that this was on MediaTakeOut first, so take this with more than just a pinch of salt. You might wanna to just gargle it with salt water and spit it out, if you know what I mean.

Just when we thought we’d get a break from the Chris Brown and Rihanna saga: a woman named Yami, who claims she’s Chris’s ex, added her two cents and she’s saying that RiRi knocked him the heck out.

She defended the singer via video blog yesterday:

“See nobody’s showing the picture of Chris’ face [after the incident]. Nobody’s showing his face picture – [Rihanna] f–ked him up. Scraped down the side of his face, busted up nose, face bleeding. Nobody is saying how she f–ked him up.

They’re only trying to make Chris look bad and I do not like that because she’s trying to be the victim … and she’s been f–cking [Chris] up for a minute. She stay fighting him - like all the time.

Her mouth is reckless. She be embarrassing him in front of people … And I hate the fact that her and her friends and her publicist tried to go out there and make [Chris] look like just whooped her a– for no reason.

Chris is not the type of [man] to beat a b–ch a–. I know the n–ga … He’s got an anger problem, but it’s never to beat nobody’s a– like that.”

Then, continuing on about the man who’s supposedly not the type to beat anyone she said:

“Chris turned around and smacked the sh–- out that b–-ch. All he did was hit her once. The only reason Rihanna got that knot on her forehead is that Chris stopped the car and her head banged into the dashboard.”

Way to stay consistent Yami!

Come on now! We all saw the TMZ photos of Rihanna battered and bruised, but in all the pictures I saw of Chris after Grammy night, he didn’t have nary a scratch! Even if we want to go out on a limb and believe this “ex’s” story that Rihanna allegedly Mike Tysoned Chris, does that justify him putting his hands on her?

On another note, it seems like Rihanna isn’t the only one that’s been “Paranoid” lately. The Chicago Sun-Times reported that Chris has been getting some death threats tied to the incident that have prompted him to become obsessed with his security.

This whole scandal has more ridiculous chapters than R. Kelly’s “Trapped in the Closet.” I can’t take it! Aren’t you ready to skip to the June 22nd trial date so we can get to the bottom of things?

When I first started to post this, I was going to use very unflattering photos of both Rihanna and Trina, but for what? It’s bad enough that I’m entertaining this f*ckery by posting it — but you know how that goes.

Rihanna is hard at work in the studio on her new album. And one of the songs may be about her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

According to a new report, Rihanna has teamed up with singer Trina for a diss song all about Chris.

According to Star magazine, Rihanna feels this is the way to really get back at Chris.

A source tells the magazine, “She’s writing a song with rapper Trina dissing Chris.”

“Rihanna’s planning to put it on the album to really stick it to him…She even changed her ringer on her cell to another Trina song called ‘Wish I Never Met You.’”

We’ve heard this rumor before, so it’s hard to believe this is really true. Last time we heard this rumor, Rihanna and Lady Gaga denied teaming up for the leaked song called “Silly Boy.”

We do think it’s the ultimate revenge, however. All artists write songs about their personal experiences, so it wouldn’t be out of the question for Rihanna to do the same. What do you think? Should Rihanna write a Chris Brown diss track?

After nude pics of R&B superstar Rihanna hit the Net with a venegence earlier this month, her “allegedly” abusive ex, crooner Chris Brown, denied any involvement in the leak. But Ri-Ri ain’t buying it — and the “Umbrella” hitmaker is threatening to release several saucy snaps of Chris in retaliation.

She even threatened to go “Left Eye” on his ass: “She was saying crazy things like, ‘I’m going to burn down his house,’” a friend of the 21-year-old tells the June 7 issue of Star of Rihanna’s reaction to finding nude images of herself plastered all over the Internet.

According to pals, once she calmed down, the singer began plotting her revenge against the man accused of beating her senseless.

“She says she’s going to release her own photos of Chris. She has less-than-flattering nude pics of him that she plans on leaking. Rihanna says he’ll be really embarrassed,” whispers one in-house informant.

The diva is also planning to plant several humiliating stories about Chris’ sexual performance — or lack thereof — in a bid to leave her 20-year-old former flame shamefaced. Rihanna is already chuckling to friends that Chris was a clumsy novice at lovemaking until “she taught him everything he knows.”

“She’s going to ruin his sexy image.”

This week, it was revealed that Rihanna will testify against Chris Brown in a preliminary hearing last month stemming from felony charges that he assaulted her during a fight in Los Angeles last February.

Oh, please..

Chris Brown is being sued by a photographer who claims the singer was involved in a violent incident on a Los Angeles basketball court back in March.

According to the photog, Brown’s bodyguards “shook me with incredible force” when he tried to snap photos of Chris playing basketball at an LA Fitness gym just a few weeks after the Rihanna incident.

Now the man is suing Chris and LA Fitness for assault and battery, false imprisonment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence and premises liability.

If you thought that Chris Brown’s career was over - think again!!! MediaTakeOut.com just got word - on VERY good authority - that Chris Brown is negotiating FEVERISHLY to be an opening act for Michael Jackson’s upcoming UK concert series.

And according to an insider, who spoke to MediaTakeOut.com on the condition of anonymity, the to sides are very close to a deal. The insider explained, “It’s basically a done deal, just ironing out the details now.”

WOOOOOW!!! That’s a pretty nice stage for Breezy to launch his comeback!!!!

Another day, another Rihanna and Chris Brown update. This time, with audio accompaniment!

Rihanna and the unstoppable Lady GaGa — I’m convinced there are five of her running around — are teaming up on Chris Brown. And guess who’s getting the word out … Kanye West.

Kanye posted a new collaboration track by RiRi and GaGa (hehe, funny) called “Silly Boy” on his blog last night and boy are the lyrics awfully revealing. I’m not sure if this song is a direct jab at the accused gal beater Chris Brown or just a downright coincidence … wait, I’m pretty sure it’s a jab.

A key verse on the track is “’cause you had a good girl, good girl, girl /That’s a keeper /You had a good girl, good girl /but didn’t know how to treat her.” Yep, sounds like she is talking to Mr. Brown. “Game’s over, you lose,” she says. Look who finally found her pair of smarty pants and got a clue.

My favorite part of this little nugget of info isn’t the actual song, but the fact that Kanye posted it, and for free to download. It looks like he wants us all to have a hot summer track -

The gifts - a limited edition pair of Nike Air Force Ones, worth $1,500, and an extremely pricey Tag Heuer watch - were bought before Chris Brown’s alleged assault on Rihanna and sent by her staff without her bidding.

LA Laker star Andrew Bynum, who has been spotted on dates with the 21-year-old Barbadian singer, was reportedly not amused.

“Andrew hit the roof, he couldn’t believe Chris got gifts from Rihanna. She’s reassuring him Chris is in the past. Andrew is questioning if they got together too soon,” a source told UK’s Mirror.

Chris Brown turned 20-year-old on May 5. He is alleged to have assaulted Rihanna following a pre-Grammy party on February 8, and faces two felony charges - Assault By Means Likely to Create Great Bodily Injury and Making Criminal Threats.

His next court hearing is on May 28.

I’m still not even sure that her and Bynum even go out together, or ever have, but anyway…

Rihanna’s camp is firing off the first response to nude pictures, allegedly of Rihanna, that hit the internet today.

TMZ has learned the legal department at Island Def Jam Music Group, RiRi’s label, sent a letter to at least one website that published the photos. The letter refers to “unauthorized photos purported to be…Rihanna,” demands that the photos be removed from the site, and calls the photos a violation of “the Artist’s rights.”

It’s not clear whether Rihanna really is the woman in the buff because you can’t see her face in the nude shots. She is clearly pictured in two fully clothed pics.

Interestingly, the letter from Island Def Jam does not deny (or confirm) if it’s really Rihanna.

So do you guys think it’s her? We want to know what you think!

Rihanna may have completely moved on in her relationship with Chris Brown and is rumored to have re-kindled flames with her former boy friend Negus. The singer dated the fellow Barbados native when she was a teenage and is now rumored to have gotten back together with him.

A source tells Britain’s News of the World newspaper, “Whenever Rihanna went to the beach or out partying, Negus was always there. They were very careful not to be seen too closely together though as they’re trying to keep their relationship a secret.”

Despite several media outlets reporting that Rihanna and her ex Chris Brown have secretly reconciled (and are even living together), Rihanna’s father insists she’s not only over him, he’s already “old news.”

Speaking to Us Weekly about his daughter’s recent vacation in her native Barbados, Ronald Fenty said: “Chris sounds like old news to me… [Rihanna is a] different person, back to herself. It’s like Chris never existed. She seems reborn.”

Sources close to Chris’ camp tell Hollyscoop that Rihanna wants nothing to do with Chris, and is going to great lengths not to be at the same place at the same time to avoid media speculation of a reunion.

Rihanna ditched the US over a week ago for the sunny skies of Barbados where she has been spotted with the likes of Katy Perry, Beenie Man and some mystery guy. According to my reader, she has fled the country to avoid testifying against Chris Brown.

“In California, the state asks the “victim” to testify at the preliminary hearing(Wed.). The victim may not feel like testifying and if so the case is DEAD. Chris walks. Without a doubt. The court can subpoena the “victim” to testify”. But Rihanna gets the hell out of the country! US cannot serve a subpoena on someone in Barbados! Or, they can if the Bajan government has some agreement with the US but that would be overkill for this kind of case. The DA and Judge doesn’t want to get into a situation where they have to cite her for contempt and even arrest her because this is a domestic violence case and it will look like they are victimizing the victim. So what do they? THEY HOLD HER JEWELRY HOSTAGE? That’s right, Necole. In other words, if you don’t testify we’re gonna hold this 1.4M worth of jewels ’til you do. Let the jewelry companies sue you. ANd, this could also affect the quality of the plea deal because they could imply that if Chris doesn’t accept a specific plea agreement then they’re gonna hold onto the jewels even longer because they may need it for evidence in an eventual trial. Their actions implicitly suggest that they don’t have a case against Chris Brown.”

More rumours..

Are Chris Brown and Rihanna broken up, or aren’t they?

At issue are a flurry of text messages that reportedly were exchanged between the two after Brown was photographed in a West Hollywood tattoo parlor with Girlicious singer Natalie Meji on April 13.

“When Ri saw the pictures, she sent Chris a text message, and Chris said, ‘It’s none of your business,’ ” reported Us Weekly.

Brown’s rep denies that the two are dating, and told People magazine that the singer was at the parlor with “a woman named Dean,” but Mejia seems to think differently.

“Things are going well between us. … (Brown) has treated me like a gentleman at all times,” she told RadarOnline.com on April 13.

Brown and Rihanna have yet to confirm that they’ve parted ways. Rihanna recently announced she will give her first live performance since the alleged assault with a May 28 concert in Dubai.

Sources close to singer Rihanna claim the entertainer has re-established her relationship with R&B star Chris Brown and the two are quietly living together.

While Brown hasn’t “officially” moved in with Rihanna, they have spent “quite a few nights together,” said a source who is a longtime family friend of Rihanna’s family.

After the couple’s very high-profile fight just prior to this year’s Grammy Awards in February — when Rihanna was badly beaten, allegedly by Brown — the Barbados native quickly retreated to her family’s home in the Caribbean island nation to both heal and hide from the glare of public scrutiny.

Though Brown has been charged for the assault and faces possible prison time, there have been rumors that Brown’s constant entreaties to Rihanna — to forgive him and allow him back in her life — were making progress.

This, despite the fact Rihanna’s family and many close friends and professional associates had strongly urged her to move on and not pay him any heed.

My source says: “Unfortunately, Rihanna still wants him and has told all of us to ‘get over yourselves. … I’m with him, so deal with it.’ ”

Since Rihanna is well aware her re-connecting with Brown will cause a backlash of public opinion, she has told those same friends she will not be going public with the renewed relationship “for a while.”

A source is saying that Rihanna and Chris got back together on Tuesday to work on a studio project.

However, the reunion didn’t last long because Chris, who allegedly beat Rihanna in February, packed up his stuff and flew out to his home in Virginia the next day. On that same day, Rihanna is said to have visited a psychic who goes by the name, Madam Ziyon.

There goes also rumors about that Chris spent the night with RiRi on a hotel in L.A and checked out early next morning while she was house hunting.
