Grammy-winning singer Chris Brown’s upcoming tour was thrown into question Friday as a British judge ordered him held in custody while facing allegations that he beat a music producer with a bottle in a London nightclub in 2023.

Brown, 36, appeared in Manchester Magistrates’ Court to face one count of causing grievous bodily harm and was ordered held until his next hearing June 13 in London — the day he’s due to take the stage in Frankfurt, Germany, on the third date of his world tour.

Judge Joanne Hirst rejected Brown’s bail request after prosecutor Hannah Nicholls said the crime was “extremely serious.”

Brown was on tour in the U.K. in February 2023 when he launched an unprovoked attack on producer Abe Diaw, striking him several times with a bottle at the Tape nightclub in the swanky Mayfair neighborhood in London, Nicholls said. Brown then chased Diaw and punched and kicked him in an attack caught on surveillance video in front of a club full of people, she said.

Parker initially wanted out of ‘Sex and the City’

Sarah Jessica Parker says she initially didn’t want to appear in “Sex and the City,” but not for the obvious reasons.

The Emmy-winning actress revealed this week that when the sex-fueled sitcom was first pitched to her, she didn’t believe it would become the cultural touchstone that it has. In fact, she did the pilot but wasn’t too thrilled about committing to another TV series.

“When the show was picked up, I was like, I can’t be on a TV show! I don’t think I’m suited for that life,” she said. “I think that it was the idea of doing the same thing over and over and over again.”

She said she asked her agent to get her out of doing “Sex and the City,” even offering film options with HBO as an alternative to fulfill her contract.

Foo Fighters surprise drummer by firing him

The Foo Fighters cut ties with their drummer, Josh Freese, this week.

On Friday, Freese took to Instagram to reveal the news. “The Foo Fighters called me Monday night to let me know they’ve decided ‘to go in a different direction with their drummer.’ No reason was given,” Freese wrote in a post, followed by a sad face.

He noted that despite the decision, he enjoyed his time with the group.

However, he admitted he was caught off guard by it. “In my 40 years of drumming professionally, I’ve never been let go from a band, so while I’m not angry I’m shocked and disappointed.”

Freese joined the Foo Fighters two years ago, replacing the late Taylor Hawkins.
