Drake has decided to break his silence on Chris Brown and Rihanna, after he was involved in a brawl with Chris in a Manhattan nightclub last year.
In an interview with the July issue of GQ magazine, Drake reveals how he would like to talk to Chris Brown about the incident face to face.
“I hear he has everything he could want now,” Drake said referring to Chris Brown’s relationships with Karreuche Tran and Rihanna.
“I don’t want my name to be synonymous with that guy’s name. I really don’t. I wish we could sit down, just like you and me are right now, and talk it out man-to-man. But that’s not going to happen.”
A fight broke out between Drake and Chris Brown at W.i.P night club in Manhattan last June when bottles of alcohol were reportedly thrown around the venue.

Tony Parker, the French basketball player who was once married to actress Eva Longoria, who was at the nightclub, claimed he was hurt during the fight, and others were left with serious injuries.
There were reports that it had kicked off after Drake sent a message to Chris Brown bragging that he had slept with Rihanna.
Drake added: “It’s embarrassing, the amount of media coverage…Two rappers fighting over the woman. He’s not even a rapper, but still, it’s the last way you want your name out there. It distracts from the music. But he’s made me the enemy, and that’s the way it’s gonna stay, I guess.”
After her breakup from Chris Brown, Rihanna was romantically linked with rapper Drake which is said to have infuriated Chris.
Earlier this year it seemed that the feud between the two was still very much alive when Drake was reportedly asked to leave a club in Hollywood because Rihanna and Chris Brown had turned up.
At the time the couple refused to acknowledge one another after both arriving at the club with their posses.
Worryingly, Drake also hinted that he fears for singer Rihanna’s safety – following Chris Brown’s assault on her at the Grammys in 2009.
He said: “If I think about it too much, I feel it wrapping around my foot, like I get a feeling it could end really badly.”
Drake added: “Like, it gets really dark.”
However, the rapper doesn’t appear to acknowledge the other controversial aspect of his life, his relationship with Amanda Bynes.
Earlier this year, Amanda Bynes posted a series of bizarre messages about the star claiming that she wanted to have s** with him.
More recently, though Amanda Bynes appears to have changed tack instead labeling Drake “ugly”.
Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran have been spotted spending plenty of time together ever since his 24th birthday at the beginning of May.
It seems things are going so well between Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran once again that they have started living together full time.
According to TMZ, Karrueche Tran has been staying with Chris Brown since they got together again and she has already moved most of her clothing and other personal belongings into his Hollywood Hills home.
The website reports Karrueche Tran has wisely decided to keep her own apartment for the time being.
While the couple have been spending lots of time together recently, they have not gone public with their relationship.

However, they recently engaged in a raunchy Twitter exchange and earlier this week Karrueche Tran was on hand when Chris Brown rear ended another car, suggesting that they are indeed back together.
It is unclear how his other on/off lover Rihanna, who is currently in Morocco, will react to the news.
The latest twist in the love triangle comes as Rihanna is reportedly very upset with Topshop heiress Chloe Green.
In recent months Chloe green has been spotted partying with Chris Brown on a number of occasions.
And in what may or may not be a coincidence Chloe Green’s father Sir Philip is currently facing a $5 million lawsuit from Rihanna.
A source close to Rihanna revealed: “She knows exactly what goes on in Chris’s life and she has been aware about Chloe for a while – she’s really not happy. Rihanna considered Chloe a friend.”
Karrueche Tran was left disappointed last October when Chris Brown ended their relationship to get back with his former flame Rihanna.
But just months after confirming his reconciliation with Rihanna, Chris Brown announced that they had split again during an interview with Australian radio hosts Kyle & Jackie O Show.
After her arrest scandal, Amanda Bynes turned her anger toward Rihanna Sunday, posting a series of racist and offensive remarks about the singer and her relationship with Chris Brown.
Amanda Bynes, 27, briefly posted a number of tweets about Rihanna, 25, before deleting the comments.
The tirade began with Amanda Bynes writing: “@rihanna you look so ugly tryin (sic) to be white,” followed within minutes by a message blaming Rihanna for being assaulted by her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.
Within two minutes Amanda Bynes had deleted the first post.
Then just a few moments later, she attacked Rihanna again with a reference to Chris Brown’s assault on her in 2009, claiming he did so because the singer was unattractive.

“Chris Brown beat you because you’re not pretty enough,” Amanda Bynes tweeted.
Amanda Bynes then retweeted a post by Rihanna: “Look who came to see me!! My lover Stella McCartney!!!” to which the former actress responded: “No one wants to be your lover so you call everyone and their mother that I almost named my new dog Rihanna.”
Rihanna, who is known for her own feisty temper on Twitter, appeared to address the remarks within minutes of their posting.
“Ya see what happens when they cancel Intervention?” the singer wrote.
Amanda Bynes returned fire accusing the 25-year-old of doing d**gs.
“Unlike ur fugly faced self I don’t do d**gs! U need the intervention dog! I met ur ugly face in person! U aren’t pretty u know it!”
Speculation persists if Amanda Bynes’ unrequited love for Rihanna’s rumored ex-boyfriend and collaborator, rapper Drake, sparked the Twitter attack.
Amanda Bynes’ online infatuation with the musician has been well-documented. She famously tweeted in March she wanted Drake to “murder my va**na”.

Chris Brown and his ex girlfriend Karrueche Tran engaged in a very raunchy Twitter exchange on Saturday and it appears the rumors that they are back together may very well be true.
Chris Brown, 24, was involved in a minor car accident on Tuesday in Los Angeles after he rear ended another car, and none other than Karreuche Tran, 24, was seen standing with him at the scene.
In one shot, Chris Brown is seen with a stormy look on his face as he stands to the side while the blonde female whose car he hit talks next to him on her cellphone.
The singer wore a black sweater, baggy grey sweatpants and white trainers, accessorizing with layers of gold chains around his neck.
Model Karreuche tran, meanwhile, wore ripped jeans and a blue top as she played an active role on the scene, taking pictures of the dented car with her cellphone.
The new pictures certainly add fuel to the rumors that the former couple is giving their relationship another go.

Celebrating her birthday on Saturday, Karrueche Tran made the somewhat bizarre move of posting a picture of herself with Chris Brown on her Instagram page.
Alongside the candid picture, Karrueche Tran wrote: “TBT my birthday last year. Who’s face am I gonna put my a** in this year? Lmao I’m kidding.”
And it was obviously a happy memory for Chris Brown, as he responded to her unusual Twitter gesture with the tweet: “Happy bday @karrueche.”
Karrueche Tran then sent a simple reply of her own, a heart, adding yet further fuel to rumors the pair are thinking of reuniting.
A source told Hollywood Life: “He’s been initiating contact with her, not the other way around. I wouldn’t say Karrueche and Chris are together but they are talking and kicking it.”
Karreuche Tran was left disappointed last October when Chris Brown ended their relationship to get back with his former flame Rihanna.
But just months after confirming his reconciliation with Rihanna, Chris Brown announced that they had split again during an interview with Australian radio hosts Kyle & Jackie O Show.
Chris Brown said: “The way I look at it is, I’m always going to love that person, but people have differences, and people have different wants and needs, at the end of the day she’s a young girl.”

Chris Brown must remove the graffiti art along the front wall of his Hollywood home after his neighbour complained about the artwork describing it as a “sharp-toothed, red-eyed goblin eyesore” that was scaring passing children.
LA city code officials responded to complaints by threatening a $376 fine for excess signage.
Chris Brown, 24, has been given 30 days to remove the art but his lawyer says “he’s not backing down”.
Lawyer Mark Geragos claims Chris Brown’s neighbours were harassing him and had also called animal control and complained about the star’s parking.

“They are trying to suspend the first amendment,” he said.
The neighbours say they are happy to have him but hope the fine will make him “tone it down and be a better neighbour”.
Patti Negri, president of the Hollywood Dell Civic Association, told the LA Times: “There are lots of babies, lots of children, and they’re literally frightened.
“It’s like devils on the wall – big scary eyes and big scary teeth, and just the whole vibe is not what we’re used to.”

Rihanna and Chris Brown have taken to Twitter to voice their mutual contempt for each other.
They sent out thinly veiled tweets on Thursday and Friday seemingly accusing each other of playing the field while they dated.
Rihanna, 25, started it off, uploading an Instagram picture on Thursday with the words: “If I drop all my hoes for you and we still don’t work out you owe me some hoes.”
Although the meaning isn’t clear, the picture insinuates that Rihanna either dropped all her friends when she was with Chris Brown or that he was unfaithful to her.

Chris Brown, 24, then upped the nastiness factor by tweeting on Friday: “She’s not mine if she’s everybody elses.”
They also sent out tweets on Wednesday that appeared to be directed at each other, with Chris Brown tweeting: “Sometimes loving someone is too much! So loving from a distance will help everyone grow! Be blessed. Live ya life!”
Rihanna then tweeted her own message a short while later, stating: “Settling is not an option! Nothing less than 100% loyalty, honesty, and respect!! Love ain’t for kidz #butimsleeptho.”
Chris Brown’s Friday tweet comes after reports that Rihanna was partying with ex JR Smith on Tuesday after her show in New York.
But the rapper isn’t blameless himself after he spent his birthday celebrations last weekend partying with ex-girlfriend Karreuche Tran.
Chris Brown recently made some kinder comments about the break-up during an interview on the Kyle and Jackie O radio show: “I’m always going to love that person … [but] I can’t be focused on wife-ing someone that young – I need to step forward and be a man and be the best Chris Brown I can be.”
Chris Brown has confirmed he and Rihanna are taking a break from one another after she was absent from his birthday celebrations all weekend.
“I’m always going to love that person … [but] I can’t be focused on wife-ing someone that young – I need to step forward and be a man and be the best Chris Brown I can be,” Chris Brown, 24, said on the Kyle and Jackie O radio show.

“Live and you f***ing learn!” the singer tweeted Monday morning.
“I’m just focus on my music.”
“I mean at the end of the day, [Rihanna] is doing her own thing, she’s on the road,” he told the Australian radio hosts.
“It’s always gonna be love – I’m a grown man, just gotta fast forward.”
“I’m just trying to have, you know, the best time and basically celebrate with all my fans and all the people in the club,” Chris Brown explained.
Showing Chris Brown what he’s missing, Rihanna posted a picture with her gal pals Cara Delevigne and Georgia May Jagger on Sunday: “Yup! We definitely have more fun!! #blondelife #backstagebehavior @caradelevingne @georgiamayjagger.”
On Saturday, Chris Brown continued his 24th birthday bender at 1 OAK Nightclub in Las Vegas, where he wound up shirtless, smoking cigarettes and drinking the night away.

Chris Brown celebrated his 24th birthday for a second night and he did not seem to be missing Rihanna.
Chris Brown continued his birthday bender on Saturday night at 1 OAK Nightclub in Las Vegas, where he wound up shirtless, smoking cigarettes and drinking the night away.
He brought an entourage of friends to the club where they took over the DJ booth and made the place their own until 5 a.m.
Chris Brown continued his birthday bender on Saturday night at 1 OAK Nightclub in Las Vegas
Chris Brown started the night off dressed in a rather civilized all-black hooded ensemble.
He posed outside of the 1 OAK Nightclub, sunglasses on and ready to party.
Chris Brown is said to have signed a lucrative deal with the club, which may be what brought him to the venue for the second round of his birthday celebrations.
Later in the night, the raging began when Chris Brown rid himself of the hooded sweater revealing a black singlet.
He popped a cigarette in his mouth and seemingly took control of the DJ booth whilst his friends partied it up at a VIP table.
It was not long before even the singlet became too much, so Chris Brown tore it off and danced raucously above the crowd with a group of friends, including a horde of excited women.
There was almost always a cigarette and drink in hand as singer partied for hours.
Chris Brown, who seems to have regained control of his Twitter account after having it suspended, gave all the gory details of what seems to have been a rather intense night of partying.
“Do too wasted at the party. Threw up crazy!! Lol!” he tweeted, giving away a little too much information.
Meanwhile, Chris Brown’s on-again-off-again girlfriend Rihanna enjoyed her own celebration – at a basketball game.
Rihanna looked glamorous in a slinky black outfit and sexy black lace-up heels as she sat courtside to watch the Chicago Bulls play against the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night.
She is currently in New York on her Diamonds World Tour… hence her inability to attend round one and two of Chris Brown’ s celebrations.
But if what the singer tweeted last week is anything to go by, a party with Rihanna may be next on his list.
“LA, VEGAS, NEW YORK! Celebrating this WEEK on to the next week! #birthdayturnup,” Chris Brown tweeted last Thursday.
Chris Brown sparked rumors of splitting from Rihanna when he was joined by his ex Karrueche Tran at his birthday party on Friday, with his girlfriend nowhere in sight.
Chris Brown celebrated his 24th birthday – which is actually on May 5th – at the Emerson nightclub in Los Angeles.
Rumors have been circulating that there may be trouble in paradise once again for Chris Brown and Rihanna, which was only made worse by Karrueche Tran’s attendance.
However, source told HollywoodLife.com that Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran are “cool friends” and Rihanna is OK with them hanging out from time to time.
It appears Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran are cool friends and Rihanna is OK with them hanging out from time to time
The insider added that Chris Brown and Rihanna are “into each other way too f***ing much” to let his friendship with Karrueche Tran come between them.
Chris Brown, who is still on probation for violently beating Rihanna in 2009, previously revealed he would always have a soft spot for his former flame Karrueche Tran – who was recently said to have moved on with NBA star John Wall – because she supported him during the worst time in his life.
The singer said: “She was my friend through it all. It was a friendship more than a relationship. I still love her, but at the end of the day, it’s like I got love for her. She gone always be my homie!”
Chris Brown also said he wishes “all the best to her. We still have a clothing line. I only want her to progress. I don’t want to stop her blessings”.
He is set to host a huge birthday bash in 1 Oak nightclub in Las Vegas on Saturday and is trying to convince Rihanna to join him for the night after she was forced to postpone her concert in Brooklyn, New York on Sunday because the Brooklyn Nets need the venue to compete in the playoffs.
A source said: “That’s his number one and he wishes she could be with him on his birthday just like he was with her.
“But that’s just how it goes sometime. They can’t be together every second.”
Rihanna is currently in New York for her Diamonds World Tour, and sources have revealed that work commitments are preventing the couple from finding much time to spend together.
A source told HollywoodLife: “It’s up and down sometimes, the s**t is even sideways. Every time some s**t pops off between them, they blast that s**t all over social media, and they shouldn’t.
“But when they’re far apart, that’s how they act out towards each other when one of them doesn’t get their own way. It’s crazy as f**k, but it’s how they get down.”
Chris Brown hit LA to celebrate his upcoming birthday with some famous friends and tasty treats.
He was joined by Christina Milian, David Hasslehoff, Chloe Green and ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran as he partied the night away at indulged in delicious cupcakes.

Possibly trying to take his mind off his far-away girlfriend, Chris Brown hit LA to celebrate his upcoming birthday with some famous friends.
The singer was joined by Christina Milian, David Hasslehoff, Chloe Green and ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran as he partied the night away.
Chris Brown kept it casual for the celebration, wearing khaki-colored chinos and a white T-shirt. He wore an open chequered shirt and completed his look with a pair of black hi-top trainers.
Karrueche Tran – who was dumped by Chris Brown when he got back with Rihanna last year – showed off her slimline figure as she helped her ex celebrate.
Topshop heiress Chloe Green also attended in a white see-through top and leather trousers.

Big Pat, Chris Brown’s bodyguard, has accused Drake of sending an offensive note before their brawl at Soho’s W.i.P nightclub in a new lawsuit.
Big Pat, 43, real name Patrick Strickland, is suing Drake and the W.i.P nightclub over the nasty head cut he suffered when the melee kicked off in New York last June.
He claims the nightspot is responsible for his injury because it sat chris Brown and Drake’s entourages near each other, even though workers there knew they were feuding over Rihanna.
According to the New York Daily News, Big Pat refers to Drake as “a popular and successful, albeit critically derided, entertainer” in legal papers filed in Manhattan Supreme Court.
Big Pat, who is suing for unspecified damages, claims the club’s seating arrangements created “a substantial and unjustifiable risk that a mass altercation would occur between the two camps”.
Chris Brown’s bodyguard also alleges the club over-served Drake and his cohorrts, and had an employee hand Brown a note from Drake that read: “I’m f*****g the love of your life.”
Big Pat, Chris Brown’s bodyguard, has accused Drake of sending an offensive note before their brawl at Soho’s W.i.P nightclub in a new lawsuit
This allegedly led to a “verbal altercation” which escalated into a “massive bar brawl that involved bottle throwing, possible gunshots and a general state of riot and disorder”.
Contemporary reports said Big Pat was hit in the head and required stitches, and the suit says he endured “severe and disfiguring injuries to his face, head and eyes”.
The suit, which also names W.i.P.’s sister club Greenhouse and various parties associated with the party spots, is the latest in a string of legal actions relating to the incident.
The saga is becoming every more complicated, and last month it emerged the owners of the nightclub are arguing Chris Brown and Drake should be the ones to pay any damages to NBA player Tony Parker, another person who was caught in the crossfire.
Eva Longoria’s ex-husband is one of several people claiming they were injured in the brawl and filed a $20 million lawsuit against the club soon after.
Tony Parker claims he suffered a corneal laceration to his left eye among other injuries, and is seeking $20 million in damages.
The W.i.P’s owners, who are facing several suits, filed documents last week in New York saying Tony Parker should be pursing Chris Brown and Drake instead because they “contributed to, instigated, participated and/or engaged” in the brawl.
They want any and all damages awarded to the San Antonio Spurs player to come from Chris Brown and Drake, though it is still be decided what they should be as the case is still pending.
This is despite Tony Parker not naming Drake or Chris Brown in court documents hedged against owners of W.i.P.
It was previously reported Chris Brown and Drake are now suing each other over the incident.
Previous court documents indicate neither party is claiming responsibility for the fracas on June 14 last year, in the event a third party wins a suit filed against both men for damages suffered as a result over the fracas.
It has also been revealed French model Romain Julien filed suit against both Chris Brown and Drake, real name Aubrey Drake Graham, in August 2012 after sustaining injuries in the fight, which saw bottles flying between entourages at the club.
Romain Julien claims he suffered a severed tendon in his right hand, lacerations, a cosmetic deformity and mental distress as a result of the incident.
Newly-obtained filings show both Drake, 26, and Chris Brown, 23, are asking a judge to blame the event on each other to avoid having to deliver on a potentially large payday should Romain Julien win the suit.
It would mark the first time Chris Brown and Drake have sued one another.
Last November police revealed they had no plans to file criminal charges over the incident after concluding their investigation.
It is believed Chris Brown – who is still on probation for assaulting Rihanna in 2009 – sent a bottle of champagne to Drake’s table as a peace offering but it was returned with a note reading: “I’m f*****g the love of your life, deal with it.”
The gesture is then thought to have angered Chris Brown and resulted in him confronting Drake, who allegedly threw a punch at his rival, leading to a brawl breaking out.
Two other women who claim they were injured in the incident have filed suit.
Club owners at W.i.P also have pending litigation against Drake and Chris Brown.
Chris Brown has revealed how he dumped girlfriend Karrueche Tran when he realized he still loved Rihanna.
Chris Brown, 23, initially shocked the world when he revealed in October his feelings towards Rihanna, whom he had seriously assaulted during their relationship.
Chris Brown has revealed he struggled when he realized he still loved Rihanna and had to tell Karrueche Tran he had feelings for his ex
The singer told radio station Hot 97 he decided to make a video about his feelings for two woman at the time as he thought it was the mature thing to do.
Chris Brown said: “I wanted to be more of a man.
“Me being young, even with relationships in the past, I did a lot of lying, I did everything just to make sure nobody gets hurt in the process.”
Karrueche Tran, his then live-in girlfriend of more than a year, did seem very hurt especially about Chris Brown making a public video.
She took to Twitter at the time saying: “WTF is going on?”
“All I am saying is… You don’t mess with people’s genuine feelings. You just don’t!”
Despite Karrueche Tran being left feeling blindsided, Chris Brown insisted on the station on Monday that it had to be done.
“I just don’t feel it’s necessary anymore in my life. Nobody can hate me for being honest. I had to just be brutal. I told both of them that the video was coming out.
“I’m not trying to be a player. It’s never an easy situation to tell another person that you still love another person, so that’s kinda difficult.
“But our friendship, me and Karrueche’s friendship, is still cool. We’re still good friends.”
Karrueche Tran and Chris Brown officially split in October, the same time Chris was spotted with Rihanna, whom he was convicted of viciously assaulting in 2009.
LA station Power 106 sparked rumors that Chris Brown and Rihanna had already split over the weekend after tweeting: “Are you still w/ @Rihanna? @ChrisBrown: Uh, no – that’s the short answer just now to @BigBoy POWER 106 LA @TuneIn.”
Later on Monday Chris Brown however made it clear he was still with Rihanna during an appearance on the Today Show.
When Today Show’s host Matt Lauer asked him if they were still together, Chris Brown replied: “Absolutely. Everything is fine.”
As Chris Brown tries to win back the public, he continues to be upfront and frank about his infamous 2009 assault on Rihanna which subsequently shattered his reputation.
Chris Brown, 23, once again opened up about vicious attack on Rihanna with Matt Lauer on the Today show on Monday morning.

In an interview to promote his new album Fine China, Chris Brown said that his 52 week stint in domestic violence counseling finally made him see the error of his ways.
“I think it is just proving myself once again and me being a man. Knowing what I did was wrong and never doing it again,” the singer told Matt Lauer.
“As far as she [Rihanna] and I are concerned, she knows my heart and I know her heart. I am not really focused on the negative, everything is positive for me. I did my 52 weeks of couseling and learned it was absolutely wrong.”
Chris Brown said that during counseling he played the incident in his head over and over again.
“It was domestic violence counseling. A 52 week program. Every Monday in Virginia, I remember going, sitting in there thinking <<why did I do what I did?>> I really just wanted to get help,” he told Matt Lauer.
When Matt Lauer asked Chris Brown if he could promise that won’t ever happen again, the star repeatedly told him “absolutely”.
Chris Brown also told Matt Lauer that he was now concentrating on moving forward “positively”, but realized that not everybody will be willing to forgive him.
“I am moving forward, positively. I think for me it is about proving myself to my fans and for me my fans have been my number one support,” Chris Brown said.
“The naysayers are going to have their opinion. Anything I do… It’s not going to be <<Chris is the greatest>>. So I am not going to focus my life on pleasing those people. The only thing I can do is please my family, myself and please her [Rihanna] and my fans.”

Chris Brown revealed during an interview with Los Angeles hip hop station Power 106 on Friday that he and Rihanna have called it quits.
Chris Brown, 23, made the revelation when the interviewer asked him directly, “Are you still with Rihanna?”
“Uh, no – that’s the short answer,” replied the rapper.

The radio station announced the news with a tweet that stated: “Are you still w/ @Rihanna?” @ChrisBrown: “Uh,no-that’s the short answer” just now to @BigBoy POWER 106 LA @TuneIn http://bit.ly/o1QLJd”
According to Fuse, the radio station plans to post the interview – which was recorded this week in Los Angeles and released in segments – online shortly.
Some fans have questioned whether the statement is true, but Power 106 is standing by the news, stating: “We wouldn’t have tweeted it if it wasn’t true.”
Rihanna, 25, meanwhile, sent out a tweet early Friday morning that may allude to the breakup, stating: “This is terrible.”
But she mysteriously deleted the message a short while later, choosing to rather re-tweet a message about her star sign Pisces: “It’s the heart of a #Pisces that makes us soft mannered BUT is that same heart of a #Pisces that will make us get in your ass if needed.”
The news comes just days after Chris Brown spoke at length with Ryan Seacrest about the pair’s reconciliation after he brutally beat her in a vicious 2009 attack, leaving her severely bruised and battered.
In his most candid interview yet, Chris Brown took full responsibility for the incident, admitting that the attack was completely his fault.
“It’s all about my responsibility,” the rapper told Ryan Seacrest in an interview with KIIS-FM radio on Tuesday.
Chris Brown says that he tried his best to reform himself over the years until the couple recently reconciled and that he was never sure that Rihanna would even speak to him again.
He added that he was “eternally grateful” that in the end Rihanna found it within herself to forgive him, leading to their reconciliation.
“I just tried my best to be the best man I could be over the years and just show her how remorseful and sorry I was for the incident and that time was probably the worst part of my life and being that she has and she’s a wonderful person I’m eternally grateful and thankful,” Chris Brown said.

Chris Brown allegedly threw his bodyguard off a plane after they apparently got into a fight on board.
Chris Brown, 23, abandoned his long-time bodyguard known as Big Pat in Bermuda after a pit stop on the Caribbean island on Wednesday.
An airport worker explained to The Bermuda Sun newspaper: “I’m not sure of the details of what happened on the plane but his plane came in, got services and everything was finishing and they were getting ready to leave.
“Then there was a stall. The security guard [Big Pat] got off first. He was standing outside talking to the pilot. Then Chris Brown and another guy came off. They had to come inside to Customs.
“They then went outside to have a cigarette. The security guard came inside [an airport building] and said he wasn’t getting back on the plane.”
Chris Brown abandoned his long-time bodyguard known as Big Pat in Bermuda after a pit stop on the Caribbean island on Wednesday
Big Pat told the staff member he had an “altercation” with Chris Brown. The bodyguard was forced to take a Jet Blue commercial flight to New York City’s JFK Airport after Chris Brown jetted off in his private
plane.
Chris Brown was travelling back from his gig at the Accra Sports Stadium in Ghana, West Africa on Tuesday.
Big Pat has stuck by Chris Brown through his previous temper tantrums and even took a glass bottle to the head during the star’s club brawl with love rival Drake last June.
Meanwhile Chris Brown was at the centre of another bust up on Wednesday night – after rowing with a valet parker at a Los Angeles bowling alley over the $10 service charge.
Rihanna has revealed her relationship with Chris Brown could go all the way, including having children together.
In a sultry shoot for ELLE UK, Rihanna has revealed plans to start a family with Chris Brown, why she feels compelled to share so much of her life through social media and her hopes for her future.
Divulging the secrets in her life is starting to become important to Rihanna, who was discovered in 2005 and has worked ever since, and the 25-year-old singer has explained this is why she shares so much of her personal life on Instagram.
Showing off her incredible figure and fierce attitude Rihanna wears kitten ears and a dark mask in the shoot by Mariano Vivacano while wearing designs by fashion houses Maison Martin Margiela, Louis Vuitton and Givenchy.
Speaking frankly about her relationship with Chris Brown, who assaulted her before the 2009 Grammy Awards, Rihanna said: “Stay [her new single] is a story about having love that close and wanting it to last forever. You don’t have that feeling with everybody so when you have it you don’t want to let go of it. I would definitely say that he [Chris Brown] is the one I have that kind of relationship with.”
On the subject of children Rihanna said: “I will probably have a kid. And I’m praying I can go on vacation for a good month. And I’ll have set some things up so I don’t have to tour for the rest of my life, even though I love touring. I want health and happiness in five years. I want to be healthy and happy.”
Despite critics branding Rihanna a bad influence on women of her generation for taking Chris Brown back the singer remains unapologetic, explaining: “Now that we’re adults we can do this right. We got a fresh start and I’m thankful for that. Right now that’s just what we want, a great friendship that’s unbreakable.”
And the social media savvy Rihanna is tired of lying to her fans about her life, explaining she uses Instagram to make it clear the type of person she is.
“Well I Instagram everything about my life, whether it’s smoking pot, in a strip club, reading a Bible verse – how crazy, I know! – or hanging out with my best friend, who happens to be Chris.
“Everybody wanted to know what was happening in my life. Is she a drug addict? No. Is she an alcoholic? No. Is she a victim? No. That’s when I got the gun [tattoo]. It was a symbol of strength. I’ll never be a victim.
“That’s why I’m posting pictures of myself smoking pot, to tell the truth about myself. I’ve got so much to think about, why bring all this extra s*** by being dishonest?”
Rihanna has revealed her relationship with Chris Brown could go all the way, including having children together
But Rihanna’s open attitude doesn’t swing with everyone.
“I’m not afraid of any person in this world but my mother. I’m terrified of her!
“She called me two days ago and reeled me in about two naked pictures Melissa [her best friend] put up on Instagram – a sneak-peek from a photo book she’s making about me. My mom, she went crazy on me.
“I was like embarrassed. I felt like I got my ass whupped in front of my class in school! She said, <<This was like a private moment and you’re just parading this around>>. She humbled the f*** out of me.”
Although she appears on the pages of Elle UK in a number of slick designer outfits, Rihanna is clearly a fan of the high street, designing a clothing range with River Island.
“High-street shops pay more attention to the kids on the street than to the runways, so in a way I like to mix both. I love a high-end bag or jacket with a simple dress.
“I just thought, I’m going to make something for everybody – every personality, every body type.”

Chris Brown has opened up about his 2009 attack on Rihanna, saying that it is the “greatest regret” of his life.
Although Chris Brown, 23, described the assault as a “mistake” he also admitted that the couple had moved on and Rihanna has “forgiven” him.
Speaking to The Mirror, Chris Brown, who is desperately trying to re-vamp his image, claimed that he has had to work hard for Rihanna’s forgiveness.
“That night was the deepest regret of my life, the biggest mistake,” said Chris Brown, having clearly come to terms with the wrong he did.
“But she loves me – what can I say? I’m forgiven… but, yes, I worked hard for it,” he added, suggesting that the couple had put the incident behind them even if other people hadn’t.
“Sometimes you row, you fight, with the one you love and things get said, stuff spirals,” Chris Brown added.
Chris Brown continues to face a public backlash against his actions, which left Rihanna bruised and battered after he attacked her during an argument back in 2009.
He was sentenced to 5-year probation and six months of community service by a court after admitting to the assault.
Due in part to the fact that the pair have reconciled, they’ve faced a fresh onslaught from domestic abuse campaigners and the general public.

Chris Brown, who spent Monday at Elton John’s Oscar party without Rihanna, seemed unfazed by host Seth MacFarlane’s joke about him during the ceremony.
As he introduced Quentin Tarantino’s violent revenge western Django Unchained Seth MacFarlane described it as, “the story of a man fighting to get back his woman, who’s been subjected to unthinkable violence – or as Chris Brown and Rihanna call it, a date movie”.
The reference to Chris Brown’s 2009 assault of Rihanna drew gasps from the audience in Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre.
Although Rihanna wasn’t at the Oscar party with her other half, the couple holidayed together in Hawaii last week to celebrate her 25th birthday.
Chris Brown and Rihanna’s romance appears to have soured just days later after they looked happy at the Grammys.
It appears that the couple refused to acknowledge one another after both arriving at the Playhouse Nightclub in Los Angeles on Wednesday night.
Rihanna didn’t know that Chris Brown was expected at the same event, revealed the source.
When VIP hosts asked Rihanna if she would like to be seated with her boyfriend, she declined and demanded to be put somewhere else.
“Rihanna refused to sit with or even near Chris – and when Chris noticed she was there, he made a huge show of rubbing his presence in her face,” said a source.
“He promptly ordered three more bottles of ace of spades which came out with in a procession of sparklers and scantily clad cocktail waitresses, causing a spectacle, which he clearly wanted Rihanna to see.”
Rihanna and Chris Brown had arrived separately at the Popular Demand’s 1 Year Anniversary event, and left without each other at the end of the night.
Chris Brown arrived at the celebrity hotspot around midnight, armed with a crew of around 20 people.
Rihanna entered the club half an hour later, accompanied by her group of bodyguards.
The singers never once communicated with each other during the course of the evening as they sat across the room from one another, said the source.

Chris Brown left the club around 2.15 a.m. in a metallic grey Lamborghini, wearing his hoodie over his baseball cap.
Rihanna made it a late night, leaving closer to 3 a.m.
The chilly atmosphere between the stars is a far cry from their loved-up appearance as they sat side by side in the front row at the Grammys.
Then the two snuggled up to each other, smiling and laughing together as they took in the show.
Rihanna also wore a diamond ring on her left ring finger during her performance onstage, fueling speculation that the pair plan to tie the knot.
But their reconciliation has not been without drama.
Rihanna’s former best friend Katy Perry has reportedly stopped speaking to her following her reconciliation with Chris Brown, who is still on probation for beating her in 2009.
It seems Karrueche Tran has finally moved on after her split from Chris Brown as she showed off her latest boyfriend J. Ryan La Cour at the Grammys on Sunday.
Karrueche Tran dragged self-styled public relations mogul J. Ryan La Cour along as they partied with the likes of Drake and Diddy in Los Angeles.
The couple enjoyed refreshments at the star-studded bash held by drink giants Hennessy at the trendy Hyde nightclub.
Karrueche Tran smiled for the cameras for a series of photos posted online by the charismatic young professional on his Twitter page.
It will surely be a relief to the model and designer’s legion of fans, as even in recent weeks she has been speaking about Chris Brown, who she dated between 2010 and 2012.
It seems Karrueche Tran has finally moved on after her split from Chris Brown as she showed off her latest boyfriend J. Ryan La Cour at the Grammys on Sunday
Just last month Karrueche Tran said: “At the end of the day, he will always be a friend. We’ll always care about each other.
“We won’t allow that to interfere. Our business is business.
“It’s a lot going on but it could be a lot worse, and that’s how I look at life. I take it for what it is.
“I move forward, grow from it and at this point, that’s what I’m doing.
“I’m not gonna sit and dwell and become consumed in that negativity because I could very much be that person, especially when things are so public and so thrown in my face.
“But like I said, things can be much worse. So I’m good.”
Meanwhile Chris Brown was at another part of town whisking away his lover Rihanna, who he was convicted of beating back in 2009, in his fancy sports car.
Rihanna accompanied Chris Brown to a LA court for his probation hearing over 2009 assault of her.
According to sources on TMZ, Rihanna, 24, “blew Chris a kiss and said some supportive words to him before he entered the courtroom”.
Chris Brown, 23, was in court to hear allegations from the Los Angeles prosecutors office that he may have lied about completing his community service.
TMZ reports the judge ordered Chris Brown to meet with his probation officer in Los Angeles within 48 hours to discuss the allegations.
The judge scheduled another hearing on April 5 due to needing “more time” to review the evidence presented by Los Angeles prosecutors. Chris Brown also needs to speak to the probation officers.
Rihanna and Chris Brown then left the courtroom “arm in arm” with Brown looking “dejected”, added TMZ.
Earlier, the couple had left Chris Brown’s home together with the star carrying his suit under his arm.
Rihanna wore sunglasses and kept her head down with her long hair partially covering her face.
The couple were also accompanied by Chris Brown’s mother Joyce Hawkins amid allegations that Brown “lied about completing community service hours”, which formed part of his probation deal.

Chris Brown’s lawyer Mark Geragos and the Richmond Virginia Police Department have vociferously denied the allegations.
Mark Geragos gave a news conference after the hearing on Wednesday where he said: “I have never had a client who has been tortured like Chris Brown has.”
He added that Rihanna had been in court to “support” Chris Brown and was unimpressed with the allegations.
“[She’s] completely supportive,” he said.
“She thinks it’s utterly ridiculous to him.”
Expressing his fury at the District Attorney’s Office, Mark Geragos said: “The D.A. is paralyzed with the thought his probation will be terminated. If that happens they won’t be able to jock him around like they’ve been jocking him around.”
Chris Brown was in court following allegations by L.A. prosecutors on Tuesday that there is no credible evidence he completed his community service sentence for beating Rihanna, and citing several other incidents that they say point to anger management issues with the singer.
The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office filed a motion which focuses on issues with Brown’s community labor in Virginia, citing numerous discrepancies and claiming the R&B singer was essentially unsupervised.
Chris Brown is reported by E! News to have slammed the allegations on his Instagram account, writing: “I can handle the hate but enough is enough yo! ‘Im a human being and I honestly think I deserve respect i’m sick of being accused…I’m just tired of this sh**.”
“A day in my shoes is a day in hell,” he added.
Chris Brown and Frank Ocean are alleged to have got involved in a fight on Sunday night.
Police were called after the singers were involved in an altercation over a parking space, it has been reported by TMZ.
The incident is reported to have happened when the controversial R & B star left the Westlake Recording studio in the Los Angeles area where he had been listening to one of the artists he represents.
According to TMZ, Chris Brown went to leave the studio but “was blocked by Frank Ocean and his crew”.
Sources told the website that Frank Ocean said: “This is my studio, this is my parking spot,” adding that Chris Brown “went to shake Ocean’s hand when he was ‘attacked by one of Frank’s people”.
An insider connected with Chris Brown claimed one of the singer’s friends “jumped in front and hit Frank’s head”.
Frank Ocean then “came at Chris and Chris pushed him away and they started brawling”, sources added.

However, Frank Ocean has a different version of the story, writing on Twitter: “Got jumped by Chris and a couple guys lol.”
“I only wish everest was there.”
He then added: “Cut my hand now I can’t play with two hands at the grammys.”
This is not the first time the two singers have been involved in conflict.
Last July, Chris Brown was forced to deny aiming a homophobic slur towards Frank Ocean when asked his opinion on the star.
He denied making the comments on his Twitter page, posting: “My Opinion on the whole Frank Ocean subject is ……… Love who u wanna love. It’s ur decision. People stop searching for BS.”
Frank Ocean came out as gay in a post on his blog last year.
Police arrived at Chris Brown’s home on Monday after an anonymous call claimed a mother and father were in a fight and the father had raced to another room in the house for a gun.
The Hollywood Hills address was given to authorities but when police arrived at the home they quickly realized it was not only a false alarm, it was rapper Chris Brown being pranked.
According to the website TMZ, police found no evidence of a gunman or any dispute at Chris Brown’s $1.6 million home.
TMZ reports Chris Brown, 23, was not home at the time.

The incident is apparently the latest in string of so-called “swatting” incidents – when an anonymous tipster calls in a fake report alleging a serious crime – involving celebrities in Los Angeles.
Kris and Bruce Jenner were allegedly swatted last Friday when someone falsely reported a man with a gun in their Calabasas mansion.
It seems all is well in the world of Rihanna and Chris Brown as they stepped out for a Slurpee together earlier this week.
After seeing in the New Year together, Rihanna and Chris Brown looked relaxed and dressed down as they drove to get some iced drinks in Chris’s sports car.
Rihanna, 24, looked on-trend but casual for her drinks date with her man, showing off her famous figure in a pair of skin-tight blue jeans paired with black lace-up shoes.
Showing a hint of stomach, she wore a cropped red sweatshirt and large gold hooped earrings hung from her ears.
Chris Brown, 23, also looked dressed-down but stylish in khaki trousers, a black hoodie and a dark jacket.
While his girlfriend was instantly recognizable, Chris Brown made more of an attempt to go incognito, wearing a black cap on his head and pulling his hood up over it.
The next day Rihanna was flying solo as she made her first trip of the new year to a nail salon to get her talons seen to.
The singer was spotted leaving the beauty parlor wearing a tiny pair of cut-off denim shorts in Hollywood in Thursday.
It seems Rihanna and Chris Brown are doing everything possible to announce to the world they’re back together as she posts new photos of themselves online appearing to share the same bed.
“Good morning! Still haven’t slept lol #hello2013,” Rihanna tweeted on Tuesday, with a photo of herself peering out from a spotted duvet.
The comforter is distinctly similar to the one posted – and deleted – by Chris Brown as he lounged in the early hours of January 1st.
“Mornings,” Chris Brown wrote from his bed, with only his legs in view.
A lump under the sheets seemed to suggest someone was lying beside him.

The snaps come after a very public display of affection between the pair, who spent Christmas Day front row at a Los Angeles Lakers game.
Rihanna, 24, left Barbados to spend Christmas Day with Chris Brown, 23, in Los Angeles.
The pair were spotted cuddling and flirting at the Staples Centre while watching the Lakers took on the New York Knicks.

The volatile couple reconciled earlier this year even though Chris is still on probation for assaulting her in 2009.
But the status of their relationship has recently been the topic of speculation following a series of cryptic tweets from both parties.
Rihanna took to her Instagram account on December 18 to post a message which appeared to confirm reports the couple had split.
She wrote: “Being single sucks. The only thing I get to do anymore is whatever the f*** I want to do.”
It followed claims Chris Brown partied with scantily-clad female models and lunched with ex Karrauche Tran while Dubai.
But both Rihanna and Chris Brown later posted old pictures of themselves together, hinting that they were missing each other.
A source told HollywoodLife.com Chris Brown surprised Rihanna with a romantic painting to celebrate a new start in their relationship.
“He painted this picture of him and her together and it’s [amazing]… It’s him and her together – she’s looking forward and he’s kissing her on the cheek. Chris painted the gold necklace around her neck that he got her and at the bottom he wrote <<you’re my girl for life>>,” the insider said.
As she holidays in Barbados with friends, Rihanna uploaded a picture of herself and Chris Brown holding hands to her Twitter account on Thursday.
Failing to adhere to the notion of the Instagram trend known as throwback Thursday, the 24-year-old opted to post an image of her and Chris Brown, 23, taken only seven days before.
Taking part in the popular activity in which Instagram users post snaps to the application as they reminisce over the past, Rihanna appears to be deeply missing Chris Brown.
In the black and white image Chris Brown’s hand can been seen resting on Rihanna’s thigh as she places her hand over his.
The caption which accompanied the image read: “#THROWBACKtolastTHURSDAY.”

Last Tuesday Rihanna posted a similar snap to her Instagram account which saw her snuggling with what appeared to be Brown’s tattooed arm.
“Damn……. I miss my n***a #thuglife #BFFlife,” the pop star tweeted to her 27.1 million followers.
Also taking part in the social network tradition Chris Brown further fuelled the Rihanna rumor mill on Thursday by posting a loving picture of the pair, sparking claims they may have reconciled.
In fact, the picture is believed to have been taken in Paris, just a day before the pair sensationally split after Rihanna heard Sweet Love rapper Chris partied with scantily-clad female models and lunched with ex Karrauche Tran in Dubai.
Too add further mystery, to what could be seen as a “forgive me” post, Chris Brown deleted the picture after just 15 minutes.
