Chris Brown
has been banned from entering the UK. The shamed R&B singer has been denied a visa, forcing him to postpone his Fan Appreciation Tour.
Bad boy Brown's
visa request was dismissed
on the grounds that he was convicted of a "serious criminal offence," according to Britain's Home Office.
Brown was sentenced to six months' community labour and put on five years' probation after assaulting
Rihanna
(who was his girlfriend at the time) last year.
He was expected to play three dates in Glasgow, London, and Manchester.
Brown later tweeted his disappointment: "SORRY to all the fans in Europe!!! my tour is cancelled. Im pretty sure yall know. my entry was denied in your country. I love you. SORRY!!"
Said tweet has now mysteriously vanished and been replaced by a vanilla line from his spokesperson: "Due to issues surrounding his work visa, (the) Ireland and United Kingdom leg of Chris Brown's Fan Appreciation Tour has been postponed. Chris looks forward to performing for his fans abroad in the near future and thanks them for their continued support."
So Britain has the hates for Brown. Shame. Still, you do the crime...
Perry nice!
The delicious
Katy Perry
has unleashed a tantalising 30-second teaser for her upcoming
California Gurls
video.
Blink and you'll miss it, but it should be enough to tide us over until the full-length video drops.
Loving the cupcake bikini and the bazookas squirting cream.
Perry said of the clip: "If you have the munchies and watch this video, it will be the greatest thing you will ever see in your entire life."
Watch out, here comes Einstein...
Plastic princess
Heidi Montag
has finally seen the light and filed for legal separation from her creepy hubby
Spencer Pratt
.
Rumours have been rife for weeks that the fame floozies had pulled the plug on their marriage, because Montag wanted "some space".
She told people.com, "I needed some alone time. There are so many lies out there about me and I just needed space - even away from my husband".
Well it looks like that space is about to be permanent.
Montag's just
filed legal documents
at a Santa Monica courthouse, citing "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for their split.
Best thing for her - both of them actually. Total toxic love shame.
LiLo busted?
Lindsay Lohan
, you've got some serious explaining to do, girl.
The walking tabloid's court-ordered alcohol-monitoring SCRAM bracelet was triggered over the weekend - while the wild child mingled at an MTV Movie Awards after-show bash.
Word is the device generated a report - indicating a
possible alcohol violation
or that the gadget was tampered with.
She could face possible jail time if she's found to have violated the conditions of her bail - which included zero booze consumption and random drug testing.
We're hearing that the judge presiding over her case has just called an emergency meeting with LiLo, her lawyers and prosecutor to determine why the SCRAM device was triggered.
Meanwhile, she's tweeted a denial the device went off: "My scram wasn't set off - Its physically impossible considering I've nothing for it to go off - All of these false resports are absolutely wrong." [sic]
Sure, we believe you, LiLo.
