R&B singer Chris Brown exited his home after an hours-long standoff with the Los Angeles Police Department. Brown barricaded himself inside when officers arrived to investigate a 911 call during which a woman accused him of pulling a gun on her.

Brown has since been released on a $250,000 bail, according to Entertainment Tonight.

The singer appeared relaxed during the standoff, stretching out his arms and at one point even lying down in front of the entrance to his home. Brown then sat upright and spoke with uniformed officers and plain clothes investigators.

Brown had been communicating with his fans via his Instagram account, where he posted videos of himself making a statement from inside.

Using offensive language, he indicated that he will not let the LAPD in until they obtain a warrant.

Officers have been waiting for Brown’s attorney, Mark Geragos, before they search the singer’s place for the weapon that he reportedly aimed at the woman overnight, the Los Angeles Times reported.

A SWAT team has also reportedly dispatched to Brown’s property.

The woman, whose name has not been released, called 911 at around 3am local time, saying that Brown pointed a gun at her during a violent rage. She said she managed to run outside his residence in the 5000 block of Corbin Avenue and make the call.

At the same time, TMZ portal has reported that police have managed to retrieve a gun and a bag of weapons as well as drugs. Although still barricaded inside, Brown himself reportedly threw the bag outside the window.

Brown was in the house with several of his friends, several media outlets reported. One of them, Ray J, was briefly detained as he left the property.

The woman was one of three “uninvited” guests in Brown’s house who were forced to leave, , according to TMZ. After that one of the women made a call to 911 and reported Brown.

Police refused to immediately confirm whether or not Brown pointed a gun at the woman, saying that the investigation is still underway. A woman has reportedly been taken from the scene.

Media reports named Baylee Curran, a former 2016 Miss California and local actress, as the woman who accused Brown.

No identities have been officially confirmed yet.

Brown, not a stranger to arrests, previously made headlines after he viciously assaulted his then-girlfriend, singer Rihanna, in 2009.

Brown pleaded guilty to the felony and received a six-year probationary sentence that ended in March 2015.

In 2013, he was also arrested on a felony assault charge in Washington, DC, where Brown and his bodyguard got into a scuffle outside the W Hotel.

The singer was also in trouble in 2012, when he was busted for illegally possessing a firearm.

Brown’s criminal record throughout the years has damaged his reputation and ability to tour abroad. His concerts were canceled in the UK in 2010, as well as in Canada, Australia and New Zealand in 2015, after he was denied entry to the countries. In December 2015, Brown’s appearance on ‘The Daily Show’ was also canceled.

$2,500 bail (only pay 10%)

I really don't understand!
Fellow has it Made in the Shade,no reason at all to fark up like he does!

I've not been able to catch up with the recent exploits of Chris Brown, I'll try to rectify that as soon as I'm able. However in England where I am, I'd noticed that after revelations concerning Johnny Depp came to light many of his movies were forced into the viewing schedule. One evening 3 of his movies were practically screening simultaneously across some of our channels. His using a mobile phone as a weapon didn't seem stem his flow of residual checks?

I was talking to, 2 friends about that last night.

Maybe, he was raised w/violence.

Made so much money, so soon, so young that he can't handle it.

Thinks he is invincible. Since he has had, so few consequences.

Or... all the above...

Fame especially the meteoric status to which he's been thrust can be hard to fathom. Who are we to say how we'd act under such circumstances? The limelight can been a tough place to inhabit, especially when you're still relatively young. That he may have developed an unsettling ego can hardly come as a surprise. Tie that with an unsettled childhood which is quite likely among poverty. I for one don't feel qualified to judge on might have transpired behind closed doors. The entertainment industry itself is cut throat. Every track cut could be your first step back to obscurity. it might well be your last if a new player with equitable or superior talent breaks on the scene. I thought that Usher Raymond might had succeeded to the throne that Michael Jackson's demise vacated but Chris Brown usurped him. It's messy living in the media. Some deal with fame better than others.

Look at Justin Bieber's behavior towards his fan base since he's been a star

Brown just isn't handling his irrelevance, with any grace.

In your view he might be irrelevant but many many other's he's current. He's still making tracks the youth of today want to dance to. Playing to sold out tours. Look what Elvis did to culture of not only The USA but also Europe and The Far East. If you have the ears of the youth you're able to shape the future. He might well do jail time. Which might temper him somewhat and possibly strengthen his resolve. It could be the making of him. Malcolm X entered prison as Malcolm Little.

So,you think Brown might become a Malcolm X?
Which Galaxy would that be?

What leads you to think that I think Chris Brown will become a Malcolm X? Interpret what I've written in any way you choose but please don't attribute things to me which I've not said.

well,I didn't imply Brown could become a Malcolm X,you did!

No I merely mentioned Chris Brown and Malcolm X in the same paragraph. You did the rest.

You might have chosen to say I thought Chris Brown was the modern Elvis but you chose another route. I can't be held responsible for how you read what I've written.

Threads are out here on

... Jim Carrey ( Canadian)Charlie Sheen/
Carlo Estevez ( Mexican- American ) Glee cast members, Sean Penn. Justin Bieber (Canadian) Tom Cruise &
WHOM ever is the crazy celebrity criminal
on prime time.... (not to mention all the antitics of political & so called religious  leaders, in the  world).

THEY DID IT TO THEMSELVES
 it is so NOT RACIST or worth defending.
 

BTW:

BROWN DOESN'T HAVE THE BRAIN CELLS TO EVEN BE IN THE SAME SENTENCE  WITH MALCOLM  X.
Murdered by other black men, (as MOST are here in the USA). In his case ..... for changing his CRIMINAL ways.


Try to keep up & stay on topic, or make a thread.

Chris Brown is nothing but a racist.

Well he might be frustrated... by the way, who is Charlie Brown?

Good Grief,you don't know who good ole' Charlie Brown is?

I agree. Plenty of reasons to target him though, with his history guaranteeing an assumption of guilt

gotta love TMZ 'standoff' 'barricade',,when he waited for a warrant as is his legal right


media helps shape image,, its amazing he still does as well as he does, I think its because people who actually know him continue to disregard it and work with him anyway

no one is 'nothing but' a racist

racists can be politicians, lawyers, cops, teachers, plumbers, shoe salesmen,,,lol

the list goes on and on

Chris Brown is a millionaire, a hell of a performer, and multiplatinum recording artist,,,,
