American R&B singer Chris Brown yesterday pleaded guilty to a public order offence during a brawl at a London nightclub in 2023, allowing him to avoid a UK trial.
“Guilty,” replied Brown, 37, dressed in a beige suit and dark brown tie, after the charge of affray was put to him as he stood in the dock at Southwark Crown Court in London.
Rihanna’s former boyfriend, who has sold tens of millions of records worldwide, will now not face trial on several other charges.
They had included attempting to cause grievous bodily harm with intent and possession of an offensive weapon, namely a bottle, in connection with the incident.

Those charges, which he had denied at earlier hearings, will be dropped at a later date, the prosecutor said.
