LONDON � Singer Chris Brown will apply for bail on Wednesday, after an England court remanded him into custody over a serious assault charge and threw his upcoming world tour into doubt.
Brown has been charged with inflicting grievous bodily harm in what prosecutors said was an "unprovoked attack" on a music producer at the Tape nightclub in central London in 2023.
The 36-year-old, who has not yet been asked to enter a plea to the charge, was arrested at a hotel in Manchester, northern England last week after returning to Britain.
The R&B star, a two-time Grammy Award winner known for hits such as "Loyal", "Run It" and "Under the Influence", was set to kick off his "Breezy Bowl XX" tour on June 8 in the Netherlands.
A judge at Manchester Magistrates' Court refused to grant him bail in advance of a hearing June 13 at London's Southwark Crown Cour.
Brown will make a further application for bail at Southwark Crown Court on Wednesday morning, court staff said on Tuesday.
