Chris Brown claims he was wrongfully accused of a buse and is suing Warner Bros. for $500 million over documentaries
The October publication of «Chris Brown: A History of Violence» recounts the allegations made by several women against the musician.
Chris Brown is suing Warner Bros. for $500 million, claiming that the documentary series Chris Brown: A History of Violence on Investigation Discovery branded him as a serial rapist and abuser.
On Tuesday, January 21, Brown, via his lawyers, filed the complaint in California’s Superior Court for Los Angeles County. The 35-year-old «Sensational» singer criticized the October 2024 documentary series, which included several women stepping forward and discussing their purported interactions with Brown, in legal docs that PEOPLE was able to obtain.
Brown is suing the documentary’s producers, Warner Bros., and Ample for allegedly causing emotional distress and defamation-libel by the statements stated in the film.
According to one accuser, Jane Doe, Brown sexually assaulted her in 2020. The documentary’s allegations were refuted by the R&B singer’s lawyers.
The lawsuit filed Tuesday asserts that the network broadcast the documentary «knowing that it was full of lies and deception and violating journalistic principles,» and that «this case is about the media putting their own profits over the truth.»
The lady who was identified as Doe, according to the document, had previously been «discredited» as a «perpetrator of intimate partner violence and aggressor herself.» According to the lawsuit, Brown has never been found guilty of any se xual offenses, yet the project portrays him as a «sexual abuser» and «serial rapist.»
Over the past ten years, Brown has put a lot of effort into «redeeming» his name, according to his lawyers.
