Chris Brown will not appear at this weekend's Phoenix NBA All-Star event, so rep for the show confirmed.
- Feb 10, 2009
AceShowbiz - Following his alleged felony battery, Chris Brown has canceled his scheduled appearance at this year's NBA All-Star to be held in Phoenix. "Chris Brown has withdrawn from NBA All-Star events," a spokesperson for the event confirmed.
Chris Brown was originally planned to introduce the All-Star basketball players on Sunday, February 15 along with Phoenix Suns star Shaquille O'Neal and "America's Best Dance Crew" winner Jabbawockeez. Prior to his appearance at the event, which will feature Jordin Sparks' National Anthem performance, he was also supposed to play in the annual All-Star Celebrity Game on February 13.
Previously, Chris has scrapped his performance at the 51st Annual Grammy Awards on February 8. At the same time, her rumored girlfriend Rihanna, who was said to be the victim of Chris' violence, has also dropped her live appearance at the annual show. However, it is still unclear whether their cancellations were just a coincidence or indeed happened due to his alleged attack on her.
Other than canceling Grammys' show, Rihanna is also expected to pull off her Asian live concerts, which will be conducted in Indonesia on February 12 and Malaysia on the next day. Rihanna's publicist hasn't given any comment on the issue though.
