"Life & Style Weekly" claims that the reason JUSTIN BIEBER and SELENA GOMEZ broke up was because Selena found out that Justin cheated with RIHANNA. It supposedly happened in February of 2011, just a few months into the relationship. But it still hit Selena pretty hard. Justin's rep denies it.
CHRIS BROWN and RIHANNA were spotted leaving a recording studio early yesterday morning after an "all-night session". A few hours later they showed up together for Chris' probation hearing. Chris is accused of faking the community service he was sentenced to after he beat up Rihanna four years ago. But the judge continued the hearing until April 5th.
CHRIS BROWN reportedly went on a "woe is me" rant on his private Instagram account yesterday, saying stuff like, quote, "Im wise I can handle the hate but enough is enough, yo!! Im a human being and I honestly think I deserve respect Im sick of being accused . . . Im tired yall Just don't understand Ive been going through this [crap] since I was 19 years old. You cant sit here and tell me to calm down, when am I gonna get a positive outcome out of anything I do?" Brown's rep says the quotes are fake, and Brown doesn't even have Instagram.
