Chris brown breaks his silence with bold statement after prison release

Chris Brown has broken his silence after being granted bail and released from prison earlier today. The American singer was granted bail just days after being charged with grievous bodily

harm. Brown, 36, is accused of allegedly using a bot tle to cause bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw during a night out at London's Tape nightclub in Mayfair on February 19, 2023.

Taking to Instagram moments after leaving HMP Forrest Bank in Salford, the singer told his 144million Instagram followers: "From the cage to the stage!!! Breezybowl." Brown's

bold post is seemingly in reference to the fact his bail conditions allow him to honour his tour commitments and perform across Europe ahead of his court date next month. Brown was

photographed being whisked away from the prison this afternoon, seated in a sleek silver Mercedes Benz Vito after his bail was granted earlier today. With snappers eager for a glimpse, the

vehicle with the fresh out of jail singer and his entourage zoomed past. The Run It! hitmaker's team had been spotted gearing up to meet him prior to his release from custody, including

one member clutching a JD Sports bag and white trainers likely for the musician's post-release outfit change. Brown was arrested at the Lowry Hotel, Salford, on May 15 after jetting

into nearby Manchester Airport to rehearse for his upcoming Breezy Bowl XX 20th anniversary tour. The arrest came weeks before he was due to perform across the UK in cities including

Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow, London and Cardiff. But before taking to the stage in the UK, Chris's tour across Europe was thrown into jeopardy after he was remanded in custody,

initially until his next court hearing on June 13. But on May 21, the R&B star was granted bail at Southwark Magistrates Court. Although Brown didn't attend court, Judge Tony

Baumgartner confirmed that his scheduled tour dates across the globe can still go ahead. During the hearing, the musician was granted bail. Brown must pay a £5 million security fee to the

court, which is a financial guarantee to ensure a defendant returns to court and may be forfeited if they breach bail conditions. Just one day after his arrest, Chris appeared at Manchester

Magistrates Court, where it was decided that the case was too severe to be dealt with at magistrates' level and would be escalated to the Crown. At the hearing, he wore black trousers

and plain black T-shirt and only spoke to confirm his name, Christopher Maurice Brown, his date of birth and his address, which he listed as The Lowry Hotel, on Dearmans Place, Salford. In a

statement earlier this month, Adele Kelly, Deputy Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS London North, said: "We have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Chris Brown, 36, with one

count of grievous bodily harm, contrary to section 18 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861. "The alleged incident occurred in London on February 19, 2023. He will have his first

court appearance on Friday, May 16 at Manchester Magistrates' Court. The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against this defendant are active and

that he has the right to a fair trial. "It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these

proceedings. The court heard that Brown had left the UK after the alleged attack and hadn't returned for two years. His lawyer, Grace Forbes, argued that he was a public figure known

worldwide and that he should be granted bail. Announcing his tour earlier this year, the musician said: "CELEBRATING 20 years of CB. So excited to be able to share this moment with the

world and my amazing fans. I CANT' WAIT TO SEE ALL YALLS BEAUTIFUL FACES. IMA TAKE YALL THREW THESE ERAS BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY GIVE YALL MY HEART AND SOUL." _LIKE THIS STORY? FOR
