US singer Chris Brown has kicked off his UK tour in Manchester, days before he is due back in court after being arrested in the city last month.
The Grammy-winning star performed to thousands of fans at Manchester’s Co-op Live arena on Sunday, with a string of stadium dates to follow in other cities.
On Friday, he appeared in court in London for the latest hearing after he was charged with grievous bodily harm over an alleged assault in a nightclub in 2023.
The star is accused of inflicting an unprovoked attack on a music producer with a tequila bottle at a nightclub in London while on his last UK tour in 2023.
