Chris Brown May Be In Vegas With Friends

Since being accused of a serious assault committed against his girlfriend Rihanna, Chris Brown has been hiding in order to escape the paps [Website – Amy Grindhouse].

After a week of crazy, inflated reporting about the facts of his assault case, it’s no wonder Brown wants to get away from the media scrutiny and go to ground – where is Brown hiding you ask – well, according to some reports the star is in Las Vegas with a group of friends.

According to E! Online, the 19-year-old singer may be staying at the Vegas Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. A Sin City source said, “They had to kick out any paparazzi that were around and get him tons of security to sneak him in.”

“We cannot confirm that Chris is staying with us,” a Hard Rock spokesman tells E! “However, several of his friends are staying on [the] property.”

Apparently the singer (or should I say, former singer) is doing well and his long-term stylist says Brown is regretful about the way the situation has turned out. “Chris is all right. He’s a good kid. He feels very bad that something like this has happened,” his longtime wardrobe stylist Mike B. tells PEOPLE. 

Another friend echoes that sentiment, telling PEOPLE, “You can tell everybody that Chris really feels bad about the whole situation, about it coming out the way that it happened, the way he went about it, the way she went about it … it’s just a wack situation.”

Those who want to read a good round up account of the events as they stand so far should head over to TMZ.com for their summary.
