Chris Brown returned to the stage for a raunchy show in Nashville on Saturday, hours after he pleaded guilty to attacking a music producer in a London nightclub.
The singer, 37, had been facing trial later this year after he hit a former friend twice over the head on the dancefloor at the Tape private members' club in Mayfair in 2023.
But a charge of assault occasioning actual bodily harm against victim 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.
Brushing off the scandal, Chris was joined by fellow hitmaker Usher for the racy show, which saw him gyrating against a woman who was handcuffed to a pole.
Chris – who has a previous conviction for beating his former girlfriend, fellow pop star Rihanna – was pictured signing autographs for a handful of fans as he left Southwark Crown Court following the short hearing.
