Chris Brown logged community service hours at his old daycare

R&B star Chris Brown logged nearly one third of his court-ordered community service hours for his 2009 assault of then-girlfriend Rihanna at his childhood daycare center. The Kiss Kiss hitmaker was placed on five years' probation and ordered to complete six months of community service after he was convicted of beating Rihanna on the eve of the Grammy Awards three years ago. A US judge recently ordered a more thorough review of his work log to determine whether he had violated the terms of his probation by failing to properly fulfil the punishment, and now newly-released documents reveal Brown completed 508 hours at the Tappahannock Children's Center, where his mom once served as director and where the singer was looked after as a young boy, on and off, for 12 years. The singer spent most of his time doing general cleaning, painting walls, and waxing floors after-hours, and facility administrator Ida Minter insists the 23 year old was a dedicated volunteer. He tells the Asso

Chris Brown shoots new video in Palm Springs

Donald Trump may not have a thing for windmills in Palm Springs, but Chris Brown certainly does. (MORE: Donald Trump: Wind turbines have destroyed Palm Springs ) The desert, windmills, hot sands and an apocalyptic feel is the setting created in Chris Browns new video Dont Judge Me, produced by Riveting Entertainment, co-directed by Brown and shot near Garnet Station Road in Palm Springs. Andrew Listermann, CEO of Riveting Entertainment and whose family is from the area, enjoys working with Brown. He said, Its always great working with him. Hes like family. Shooting a video in a desert setting is something Brown has wanted to do for a while. There arent many places like Palm Springs, Listermann added. Listermann wanted to keep things as genuine and authentic as possible. The natural heat adds to the cinematography, he said. Once the video was done and uploaded to Vimeo , Brown took to Twitter. He told his 11.2 million Twitter followers, Thank you to all the fans that love the video! Fi

Chris Brown went back to daycare... for community service

Singer Chris Brown has been working community service hours in his home state of Virginia since January 2010, as he was ordered to do after pleading guilty to beating his then girlfriend, Rihanna, in 2009. This week documents were submitted by Browns supervisor, Richmonds Police Chief Bryan T. Norwood, to Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg, indicating that Brown has completed 1,400 hours of community labor, which finishes his sentence. The New York Post is reporting that Brown did a large majority of his service hours at his former daycare where he spent many years as a child. This is the same daycare center where Browns mother also worked as a director for 24 years. Apparently, the account of the hours Brown has logged changed dramatically, as the records show in the last seven months the singer has logged 701 hours, but previously that same amount of hours took him 28 months to finish, as indicated by TheHuffingtonPost . From what the records indicate, Brown has been

Chris Brown's Disputed Community Service Log: Cleaning Horse Stalls, Shredding Files

After Chris Brown pleaded guilty to beating then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009, a judge ordered the R&B singer to do six-months' worth of what was described as "community labor." The singer was allowed to perform the service in his home state of Virginia under the supervision of Richmond's police chief, who this week submitted documents to a Los Angeles judge indicating that Brown had finished his service. Not so fast, say a judge and prosecutor, who have ordered more documentation be produced to prove that Brown worked the more than 1,400 hours he claims to have performed. A third of the hours were recorded at the Tappahannock daycare center, where Brown spent time as a child and where his mother once served as director. The Associated Press analyzed records filed on Brown's community service, showing how he and Richmond officials say he cleaned up. The following are some of the tasks documented in Brown's service log: - 371 hours logged picking up trash in
