After Chris Brown allegedly missed a concert to raise money for those affected by Hurricane Ida and Nicholas last year, he is now being sued.
According to NBC’s Click2Houston, a Houston entrepreneur is suing Brown for postponing his appearance at her “One Night Only Benefit Concert” on March 19, 2022. The concert was scheduled to collect money for locals in Houston and Louisiana whose homes were damaged by storms in the fall of 2021.
Brown reportedly received $1.1 million in performance fees, according to LeJuan Bailey, owner and vice president of DML Real Estate Investors and Construction, despite canceling just before he was scheduled to perform.
“I acted in good faith and sponsored this concert out of love and respect for residents in need,” Bailey said in a press conference. “I am appalled that Chris Brown refuses to refund my money for a show he did not appear to after we announced our show and sold tickets.”
Although Brown allegedly acknowledged the wire transfer, Bailey maintains that she has not received the $1.1 million in compensation.
