Singer Chris Brown has arrived at a London court and is set to enter a plea after being accused of hitting a producer ‘several times’ with a bottle.
The R&B star was accused of causing grievous bodily harm to producer Abraham Diaw after an alleged bottle attack in a London nightclub in February 2023.
The 36-year-old arrived at 9 am at Southwark Crown Court in London.
Brown is set to appear alongside Omololu Akinlolu, 38, his co-defendant, for a plea and trial preparation hearing.
The Kiss Kiss singer is currently on his international tour, with UK tour dates taking place just before this plea hearing.
The singer was freed on a conditional bail last month and performed in Cardiff on Thursday night.
While in Manchester last weekend, the artist made reference to his upcoming court date.
‘I just want to tell you all, I love you all to death, I am so thankful that I could come out here tonight,’ he told the crowd.
‘Thank you all for having me and supporting me, and thank you to the jail, y’all was really nice,’ he said at the Breezy Bowl XX tour to the Co-op Live Arena on Sunday.
