T.I.: 'Chris Brown Will Appear In Movie Adverts Despite Rihanna Incident' Add to My Fav Bands List Add to My Fav Bands List

US rapper T.I. has said Chris Brown will appear in adverts for the pair's new movie, despite reports the singer had been “erased” from the promotional campaign.

"Nah man, that can't be further from the truth," T.I. told RapRadar. "There's no validity to that statement.”

Brown has been dropped from a number of endorsements since he was involved in an alleged altercation with girlfriend Rihanna in Los Angeles last month.

But, in an interview with MTV, T.I. insisted Brown would still feature in adverts for Takers, which also stars actor Matt Dillon.

“I'm [an executive producer] on the movie and I ain't put forth no sort of order or request, man,” T.I. said.

“And personally, it's very, very premature to jump to such a conclusion given that none of these matters have been resolved.

“No one has been tried or convicted or nothing like that. I'm not going to jump to no conclusions. I'm not going to.

“I think that's unfair 'cause that's what people did with me, and I'm not going to do that."

Takers, originally entitled Bone Deep, tells the story of a foiled bank robbery. The film is due to be released next year.

Brown is facing an assault charge following the alleged altercation with Rihanna, which took place hours before the couple were due to appear at the Grammy Awards.

The singer will find out next month whether he faces jail time over the incident.

  • No jury is going to find Chris Brown guilty of felony charges. Does it make sense for a young lady who is getting beat up to sit on keys after getting them out of the ignition? Hell no I would of open the door and run. They both were fighting each other.Rihanna had two opportunities to get out of the car herself according to the affidavit.Im sorry but the affidavit doesn't make sense.Strike a deal with the young man and call it quits. All they are going to do is waste the tax payers money.

  • Rihanna's forehead looks the same as it did on every other picture. They were both in the wrong and while his actions have become public and hers hasn't, this kid does not deserve jail time and "felon" attached to his name for the rest of his life at 19
