Chris Brown began the first 180 days of his community labor Wednesday (Sep 16) in his home state of Virginia. The pop star is pictured here pulling weeds and doing some cleaning on the side of the road.

Dressed in black jeans, a white tank top, a red baseball hat, heavy-duty work gloves and an orange-and-yellow traffic-safety vest, Brown toiled under the Virginia sun as police looked on. Brown slashed at weeds and tree branches, pausing to pick dirt from his metal tool and acknowledge reporters gathered to observe his day. At one point, he carried a section of metal fencing and tossed it away. Extra security has been required to supervise the celebrity, but Gene Lepley, a spokesman for the Richmond Police, said that the costs are being tabulated, and Brown will be responsible for the entire bill.

Brown was sentenced to 6 months of community labor, not to be confused with community “service,” after he plead guilty to assault against his former girlfriend Rihanna. He’ll also be on probation for the next five years, will have to have an entire year of domestic violence counseling and must stay away from Rihanna from the duration of his probation.

Fresh from her performance with Jay-Z and Kanye West the night before at the Jay Leno Show in Los Angeles, a very cheerful Rihanna was spotted making her way through the terminals at LAX airport Tuesday (Sep 15) to catch a flight out of the city so that she could soak up the events of NY Fashion Week this week.

It seems as though her ex boyfriend Chris Brown still has feelings for her. He posted this to his Twitter early this morning:

MY HEART IS INCOMPLETE… the part that is complete is my love for fans, career, friends, family.. god. but im missing someone or somthing.

He then linked to a fan-made YouTube video featuring old pictures of him and Rihanna with “Changed Man” playing in the background. Of course, he later deleted the tweet and replaced it with this message:

I AINT POSTIN S*** ELSE ABOUT ME(PERSONALLY)…. IM SO OVER ALL THIS BULLS***..

Singer/songwriter Ester Dean, Zone 4 Records’ newest artist, has released her debut music video for her single, “Drop It Low,” featuring Chris Brown. Up until now, no one knew what this Ester Dean girl looked like because her label never released any pictures. The only thing related to her floating around the Internet was a logo and “Who Is Ester Dean” teaser videos.

The music video itself features cameo appearances from several artists, including Nelly, Keri Hilson, Soulja Boy and more.

Take a look at what’s being passed around as the movie poster for the upcoming “Takers” movie, starring Idris Elba, T.I., Chris Brown, Michael Ealy, Hayden Christensen and Paul Walker. We’re not so sure if this poster is “official” because it looks heavily photoshopped. T.I. and Paul’s heads look way too big for the bodies they were placed on. Besides, the movie doesn’t come out for another 6 months…

But one thing we do know is official is the trailer Screen Gems released online last week. Continue reading to check that out!

It’s really up to the courts whether or not Chris Brown will be taking part in a Michael Jackson tribute concert, set to be held in Vienna on September 26th. Jermaine Jackson himself announced that Brown, along with Mary J. Blige, Akon, Natalie Cole, Angela Bassett and more are set to appear at the tribute and the final list of performers and celebrity attendees hasn’t been finalized, so more could be (and will be) added.

Sometime during the show, expected to draw 65,000 fans to the venue, Jermaine will perform alongside a virtual Michael Jackson in a sure-to-be touching and “magic moment for all who loved his music,” Jermaine said.

While a label rep denies that Chris Brown will be taking part in the tribute, Jermaine says that the young pop star definitely wants to be a part of it.

“Chris Brown is working out some situations but he definitely expressed to us that he wants to be here,” said Jermaine. “It’s just up to what he’s going through with his court case right now. … People make mistakes and he’s a wonderful performer and during these times people need support and that’s really important.”

Troubled star Chris Brown appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live Wednesday night (Sep 2) and partook in his first interview since his February 2009 altercation with his then girlfriend Rihanna. If you’re a regular celebrity gossip blog reader and enjoy keeping up with celebrities in the news and tabloids, you probably didn’t learn too much from the interview. In fact, the main topic of discussion from viewers had nothing to do with the incident at all! Most people were fascinated with Chris Brown’s blue bowtie and cared nothing about what was going on in the interview. Someone even created a website for it (ROFL!)

But anyway, continue reading for the full interview where Chris admits to still loving Rihanna and all that good stuff…

Singer Chris Brown has slammed reports alleging that he “forgot” what happened the night he beat Rihanna. The internet went crazy yesterday when a 30 second clip of his hour-long interview with CNN’s “Larry King Live” was released and posted all over blogs, social sites and other websites. In the short clip, Brown tells Larry King he doesn’t remember all of the details from that February night, but according to Chris, that 30 second clip doesn’t represent the entire interview and was totally taken out of context:

“There have been reports on the internet that I didn’t remember what happened that night with Rihanna. I want to try and set things straight. That 30 seconds of the interview they used of me was taken from a one hour interview during which that same question was asked something like 4 or 5 times — and when you look at the entire interview you will see it is not representative of what I said.

Chris Brown was spotted with a big ol’ smile on his face as he made his way into a recording studio Tuesday (Aug 25) following his sentencing at the Los Angeles County Superior Court. Chris is currently hard at work on his third album, Graffiti, due in stores later this year.

Later that night, he was spotted partying it up at Los Angeles’ popular Guys and Dolls nightclub. According to TMZ, he may have broken the law as the terms of his probation states that he isn’t allowed to go to places where their chief product of sale is alcohol. But luckily for Chris, the judge didn’t specifically state this at his sentencing so he may get to slide … this time. Homeboy better watch his back though! It seems like everybody’s looking to get him caught up so he can get locked up for the next 5 years…

Club-goers say Chris really enjoyed himself though!
