Chris Brown may be facing another legal blow if recent rumors are true related to his canned relationship with Wrigley.
As previously reported on Singersroom, Wrigley dropped its relationship with the singer shortly after news broke that he would be facing charges in connection with beating Rihanna in February.
According to recent reports, Wrigley had just signed a five year deal with Brown when his altercation with Rihanna occurred. In addition the gum maker had shot multiple commercials and photos for print ads that were to be used over an extended period of time. However, due to their dissolved relationship the company has lost millions.
"..They are said to be preparing to sue Chris for all the money they lost due to his bad behavior. They spent big bucks on ads featuring Chris along with other celebrities like JayZ and Mariah Carey," sources say of a particular campaign that included group photos to be used in ads.
"Since Chris was in them also – everything had to be ditched. Wrigley is mad and we hear they hope to recoup the money Chris caused them to lose with a big fat lawsuit."
In related news, Brown is gearing up for the release of his second single, titled "Crawl". Accompanying the Lil Wayne assisted single "I Can Transform Ya," Brown's "Crawl" will be released prior to his anticipated studio album "Graffiti".

Ele só não ficou preso pq é uma pessoa famosa e pública se fosse um pobre coitado já estava na cadeia faz tempo.
shawakatima, has a right to voice her opinion just like the rest of all of us people this is a message board. and nothing that the rest of us say is gospel, people just have their opinions. chris has people in line to handle the gum company, what gets me is the radio stations that stopped playing his music now to me that was wrong. he has gone to court and its all out there and i still do not hear his music playing a lot thats just not right. and he should have been able to perform at the bet awards show and they blocked him there, thats wrong. and he did a michael jackson song at one of the awards shows earlier and he tore it up. janet can dance just like her brother step to step and chris is the next person who dances just like michael and they did him like that its not right. and thats what needs to stop , treating him like a second class citizen, let the young man make money. i feel that he will rise again ., and go all the way to the top.
WRIGLEY IS THE ONE WHO MESSED UP, CHRIS BROUGHT FLAVOR TO THEIR ADS NOW THEY ARE BACK TO THEIR TIRED COMMERCIALS, YOU KNOW I HAVE OBSERVED THE HATERS AND ITS NOT ABOUT HIM ASSAULTING RIRI , THEY ARE JEALOUS OF CHRIS SUCCESS, GET A LIFE HATERS!!!!
Chrissie... neither did Josh Brolin, Christian Bale, Sean Penn, Christian Slater, David Hassleroff, Ozzy Osbourn,Terrence Howard, Ridd*** Bowe,Eminem,Tracy Lawrence,Harry Morgan( M*A*S*H star ) should I gone on because theses are just a few of the celebrities that have abused women... and their names weren't dragged through the media.. H3Lll, Roman Polanski has the support of Hollywood and he raped a child or don't that count as abuse... Hateful words from the likes of you and others just make his followers strongers, no matter what few words a few of you say,the majority of the comments are in his favor.. sorry we rule...
fuc! off woman beater !
GOOD! Karma's a b****! I hope they sue him for everything he is worth! No good loser!
Well, they said preparing and I have only read it on two web sites, I'm sure if they do pursue it that Chris Brown has a legal team to handle it. As the person said in another comment, Kobe Bryant had a McDonald commerical focuing on family, what they did was hold back, yes Kobe lost a great amount of his endorsements but, he did get the majority back, also doing his charges, he was booed every time he played basketball, what I'm saying is Chris just continue to give 100% in your performance and recordings and your true fans will be right there. Wrigley's need to get over it, you fired him he didn't quit,all those of lame twin commerical was long past due for something new and Chris was it! You blew it!!!
Shawakatima, get a life, groupie,u are following chris everywhere, googling him and leaving comments, he doesnt know who the hell u are. b**** keep moving
LMAO... dropping him was their choice not his so the chose to loose money! That lawsuit won't go anywhere. LOL

Kobe Bryant lost millions in endorsement behind his sexual allegations charges, Michael Phelps lost endorsements, there are other celebrities who lost endorsements for whatever reasons. I don't recall these company coming after Bryant or Phelps, I think that Wrigley made a big mistake in canceling his ads, maybe they should have waited it out like the other companies did. People will realize that Chris Brown has more followers then the ones bashing him.I do agree, he's not by far the first man who has ever hit a woman and he won't be the last... abuse is wrong but, lets not pretend like he's the first to be abusive.
@Shawakatima- Arguing with a fool proves there are two!!
@ Marcy, There's something about unoriginal/mundane posts that turn me on. Now give me some sugar if you're freaky. Give it to Mama!
WELL THEY SHOULDNT HAVE NEVER DROPPPED CHRIS BROWN THEY SHOULDVE KNOWN THEY WUZ GO LOOSE MONEY ITS NOT CHRIS BROWN FAULT
Ok.... I am a bit confused....... I understand that Chris Brown has gotten himself in some trouble. I also have seen him pay for the mistakes tha he has made. I think that Wrigleys gum is suffering because they cut him and now they want him to pay..... that is so stupid. I along with several other people that I know has stop puchasing this gum..... lets keep it real just give the boy the job back and you won't lose money. It amazes me how all of a sudde Chris Brown is the only celeb that has hit a woman...... nobody else suffered like him. I think they are being so unfair to him..... don't get me wrong what he done was terrible, but lets stop trying to tear him down. Wrigley u guys are foul for this one!
@Shawakatima- Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. Abraham Lincoln ~16th American President
leave shawakitma alone she dint hit rihanna
Wrigleys lost money because they cut him!!!!!!!!! No one want their gum anymore!!! I stopped buying their gum months ago!!!! They sue him!!! They are stupid!!!
1st of all shawakatima please don't embarrass yourself again by talking . . . . 2nd of all wrigley cannot sue over deciding to drop him. he did not ask out of that contract and did not get out of it voluntarily. go ahead and sue wrigley but i guarantee u u will lose even more money with legal fees cuz chris doesn't owe you jack.
wtf? he didn ask to be cut off this deal, they can't sue him, it was their idea to cut him, he lost out from these commersials, and now they wana sue him? This ain't right! it's their own fault for loosing all that money, not his, he was cut!!
@Shawakatima....you really need to grow up and use your energy for something else because at the end of the day you are bashing him but the suppose victim isn't so what does that make you... follow her lead and get some business of your own...
Back on topic...this is what happens when you allow ppl to make discussions for you and this is what happened to Wrigley's because like it or not the young man still sell and he is going to make a comeback and all these company's that broke ties with him are going to try to either sue or renegotiate in the future...its all about the money at the end of the day....
Shawakatima Take your ghetto azz somewhere esle!
Ummm...this seems so fishy to me. They dropped Chris thinking they would LOSE money. And after they dropped him, they see that they lost money anyway (they didn't do those calculations concerning ads and whatnot BEFORE?). THEY broke out of the contract, so they can't go suing Chris cuz they chose to end the deal. Business is a gamble, wrigleys is just out of luck. I think this is just another rumor.
P.S. Shawakatima's comment is EXTREMELY lame ...smh... we all hate what he did...but grow up
This is STUPID!!!!! and ridiculous. They dropped him, noone can predict that mistakes will not happen and to come back now and demnad money lost is just stupid. They took a chance. Now, when Chris makes his comeback like he DEFINETLY will then what? Get over it Wrigley, your a gum company, PLEASE!!!! LMAO :) stay up Breezy.
Dear Wrigley: Don't send any female representation to negotiate with Mr. Brown. He is a known woman-beater and your employee would be just the reason needed for him to "double his pleasure, double his fun, smack down a woman cuz he's a bum". I hate that he beat that woman.
