Chris Brown was met by cheering fans as he left Southwark Crown Court after admitting affray over a “vicious and unprovoked” bottle attack at a central London club.
The R&B singer had been facing trial later this year after he hit a former friend twice over the head with a bottle on the dance floor at the Tape private members’ club in Mayfair in 2023.
On Friday (24 July), a charge of assault occasioning actual bodily harm against Abraham Diaw was dropped along with two charges of possessing an offensive weapon - a bottle - in a public place and attempting to cause grievous bodily harm.
Brown’s vocal coach, Omololu Akinlolu, 40, has also pleaded guilty to affray.
As the 37-year-old left the court, a group of devoted fans cheered him on. “We love you,” one shouted.
