Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Rock

Ian Brown was arrested yesterday for allegedly attacking his wife.

The former Stone Roses singer was taken into custody on suspicion of assault after neighbors alerted police to a disturbance at his west London home. When officers arrived, Fabiola Quiroz, the mother of Ian’s 9-year-old son, told officers her husband had abused her.

“A 46-year-old man was arrested at the address and taken to a police station,” a police spokesman confirmed. The “Stellify” singer was later released on bail until a hearing next month.

UPDATE: Contrary to previous reports, the label says “Chris Brown and Rihanna did not record a duet after the incident.”

An unnamed source says that singers Chris Brown and Rihanna, who have recently gained a ton of public attention for their personal problems, are currently recording a duet together.

Chris Brown is facing felony charges for allegedly assaulting Rihanna, 21, in a domestic dispute. The singer has since released a statement to his fans. “Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired,” Brown stated. “I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones, and I am committed, with God’s help, to emerging a better person.”

UPDATE #2: Sources for the LA Times claim Rihanna was the woman in the car.

UPDATE: Chris turned himself into police and was booked for making criminal threats. He has since posted $50,000 bail.

One of music’s hottest couples will be MIA from the Grammy ceremony tonight.

Nominees Rihanna and Chris Brown have both issued last-minute cancellations due to an LAPD investigation. The incident stems from an alleged assault that occurred early Sunday morning.

According to the police department, Brown and a woman were arguing inside a vehicle around 12:30 AM today. The two eventually exited the vehicle when Chris reportedly became physical with the passenger. By the time officers arrived, the singer had already left the scene. That was when the injured victim named the Brown as the suspect.

Although it’s unclear what Rihanna’s role is in this matter (the victim’s name was not released), her appearance at the 51st annual event was canceled late this evening. (She and Brown were both scheduled to perform.) When contacted, her rep offered this statement to the media: “Rihanna is well. Thank you for concern and support.”

R&B legend Al Green has reportedly been asked to help fill the telecast’s hole.
