In January 2025 Chris Brown filed a $500 million defamation of character lawsuit against Warner Bros. over their scathing documentary "Chris Brown : A History of Violence [click here if you missed that]."
Warner Bros. uses Chris' notoriously volatile relationships with his ex-girlfriends Karrueche Tran and Rihanna to argue for dismissal...

Chris Brown’s rocky relationships with his ex-girlfriends, Rihanna and Karrueche Tran, and his criminal past are being used against him in his $500 million legal battle, In Touch can exclusively report.
The producers behind the 2024 documentary Chris Brown: A History of Violence, along with Warner Bros. (who own Discovery, where the film aired), submitted new evidence in court, obtained by In Touch, as part of their effort to dismiss Chris’ defamation lawsuit.
A lawyer for the companies argued, “[Chris’] claims are barred, in whole or in part, to the extent that any statements and/or alleged implications that form the basis for the claims could be interpreted as asserting verifiable facts, those facts are not materially false and/or are substantially true.”
Now, in newly filed court documents obtained by In Touch, Warner Bros. and the producers submitted a series of news articles about Chris’ legal troubles over the years.
Their lawyer said, “All of these exhibits consist of news articles, or other media, published online about the work at issue in this case and its subject matter, namely the Documentary and the widely publicized reporting of Chris Brown’s criminal history and violence towards women, and are being introduced to demonstrate that the Complaint arises from acts in furtherance of Defendants’ free speech rights.”
The defendants pointed the court to articles about Chris Brown’s arrest for domestic violence after he assaulted Rihanna, 37.
Chris pleaded guilty to felony assault. Per his plea deal, he was ordered to five years of probation and domestic violence counseling. Rihanna previously spoke about forgiving Chris for the incident.
Another article entered into evidence referred to a five-year restraining order that Karrueche, 36, was granted in 2017. The documentary producers also point to an alleged fight that Chris had with Frank Ocean.

I’d be shocked if CB wins this. His violent history is public knowledge and record. His cases were not sealed, and cameras were rolling when he trashed ABC studio, stalked Karrueche down to her car and hopped in, and snatched that fan’s phone and tossed it. And that’s just a few incidents that were recorded. Ammika never denied getting her a$$ kicked when that chick blasted that and isn’t he still avoiding the country where he hit a man in the head with a bottle? Smh But I digress.
Where are his fans that like to come on here to defend him? These are all facts. Plus more
LOLO
But WB wanted to make money off a Black mans tragic life. You have a lot of wh!ties you can trash
They can use those two as examples, but WB messed up when they bluntly accused him of being a "serial"r8pist (which has never been accused/convicted of) and also the Jane Doe (that tried to sue him and her lawsuit was tossed out) bring her to this story as factual when she was discredited. They need to pay up.
Breaking up the ABC studio on camera is what permanently sealed Chris' fate. The media turned on him and exploited his every bad move from then on.
Oh! Breezy ain't slick. He is all nicey nicey with Karrueche because he don't want her to run her mouth.
Breezy should settle down.
