He's been in jail for six weeks and now now he faces another nine days behind bars. Singer Chris Brown looked tired and haggard as he appeared in Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday where Judge James Brandlin ruled he will remain incarcerated until May 9.
This will give his attorney Mark Geragos and prosecution time to attempt to strike a deal over penalties for his violation of probation, ordered after his 2009 guilty plea for assaulting then girlfriend, Rihanna. This means the Look At Me Now star will spend his 25th birthday on May 5 apart from friends and family, according to KTLA.com. Chris, who has been locked up since March 14, wore an orange prison outfit - very different from his usual snappy attire. His hair was close cropped and he had a small goatee.
If the two sides don't agree, Chris faces four years in jail. The celebrity has been in trouble with the law since he pleaded guilty to beating Rihanna at a pre-Grammy Awards party in 2009. He was placed on probation but that was revoked after he and bodyguard Christopher Hollosy were arrested on assault charges in Washington D.C. for allegedly beating a man who tried to take a photo of Brown last October outside the W Hotel. Brown was allowed to enter a rehab program instead of going to jail. But he was ordered to jail last month when he was kicked out of rehab for rule violations. Aside from that, the singer still has to answer the assault charges in Washington D.C. and had just been flown back from the capital hours before his appearance in the Los Angeles court. Hollosy has already been found guilty of the assault.
