Grammy-winning singer Chris Brown was ordered to remain in custody after making an appearance Friday in a British courtroom. He was facing a charge of seriously assaulting a music producer at a London nightclub in 2023.

Brown, who is 36, appeared at Manchester Magistrates’ Court charged with one count of causing grievous bodily harm. Authorities arrested him at a Manchester hotel in the early hours of Thursday morning, detaining him until the court session.

His case was transferred to Southwark Crown Court in London, where he will appear on June 13.

Brown arrived at the dock flanked by court officers. His hair was bleached blonde and he wore sweatpants and a black T-shirt.

Brown confirmed his name and birth date and said his address was the local Lowry Hotel where he was arrested.

The charges relate to an incident at a London nightclub in the swanky Mayfair neighborhood in February 2023 when Brown was on tour in the U.K.

Brown’s representative didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment from The Associated Press.

Known by fans as Breezy, Brown made his breakthrough into the music industry as a teenager back in 2005. Over the years, he has become a prominent hitmaker with popular songs including “Run It,” “Kiss Kiss,” and “Without You.”

He won his first Grammy for best R&B album in 2011 for “F.A.M.E.” then earned his second gold trophy in the same category for “11:11 (Deluxe)” earlier this year.

The singer is due to launch an international tour next month with artists Jhene Aiko, Summer Walker and Bryson Tiller, opening with a European leg before starting North America shows in July.
