Chris Brown is reportedly going to perform at this year’s Grammys. This will be Brown’s first appearance at the Grammys since his 2009 assault on then-girlfriend Rihanna during Grammy weekend.

Despite being nominated in years since, Brown has not attended the ceremony. The performance is not meant to be formally announced prior to the show.

Brown is up for three Grammys, including Best R&B Album for his 2011 opus, F.A.M.E., as well as Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song for his track “Look at Me Now,” which also features Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes.

A number of R&B and hip-hop world royalty are among the nominees for this year’s NAACP Image Awards.

Anthony Hamilton, Bruno Mars, Cee Lo Green, Chris Brown and Common will vie for the title of Outstanding Male Artist at the 43rd annual ceremony, while the women’s category includes Beyonce, Jennifer Hudson, Jill Scott, Ledisi and Mary J. Blige.

In the Outstanding Album category, Beyonce’s “4″ faces Brown’s “Fame,” Hudson’s “I Remember Me,” Lupe Fiasco’s “Lasers” and Scott’s “The Light of the Sun.”

While the awards traditionally celebrate “the accomplishments of people of color,” the unstoppable Adele earned Outstanding Song and Music Video nods for single “Someone Like You.”

Among the non-musical categories, upcoming Grammy Awards host LL Cool J scored a nod for Outstanding Actor in a Drama Series for his role on “NCIS: Los Angeles.”

Rihanna and Chris Brown Rumored to Be Hooking Up

Rumor has it that Rihanna and Chris Brown are keeping a secret relationship. A new report suggests that the pop star and singer/rapper, who ended their relationship after Brown assaulted Rihanna in early 2009, have been privately hooking up for nearly a year.

According to Us Weekly, multiple sources have confirmed that the pair have been casually meeting up, even though Brown is currently dating model Karrueche Tran. “They can’t get enough of each other. I don’t see it ending well,” says one industry source quoted for the piece.

However, a rep for Brown tells Us, “He and Rihanna are just friends… He’s not cheating.” A rep for Rihanna did not comment for the story.

A court order that forbid Brown from coming within 50 yards of Rihanna was lifted last February, and in May, the pair began following each other on Twitter. “Its f—in twitter, not the alter [sic]! calm down,” Rihanna told upset fans at the time.

Earlier this month, Brown’s manager told Billboard that the singer would not be doing interviews in the near future, instead opting “to concentrate on performing and recording” after scoring his first No. 1 album, “F.A.M.E.,” last year.

Chris Brown is ready to have a great year in 2011. He will be unveiling song after song on his Twitter account much to the pleasure of his million of fans, and Twitter followers.

Chris Brown just released “Look At Me Now” featuring Lil Wayne and Busta Rhymes, and he’s probably praying it becomes a hit!

He tweeted about the record saying:

“I just put 2011 in a coffin wit look at me now!! Hate all you want!!” Look at me now… Look at me now….. I’m getting paper!!!! 12midnight Busta is killin on this song and Weezy is a monster!!

“Look At Me Now” which has a very interesting beat and undesirable lyrics is the new urban single from Brown’s forthcoming album ‘F.A.M.E’ that will be available this year.

Are you excited for his new album?

We were hesitant to post Chris Brown’s latest video since we still don’t feel comfortable supporting him, but the video isn’t what we expected. The song is about dancing and drinking in the club, but the video has nothing to do with that. It’s actually a fun video and the kids at the beginning are cute. Looks like Chris Brown is working hard to repair his image with this one.

Check out ‘Yeah 3X’ –

With the success of her recent duet with Eminem, Rihanna is recording her very own version of ‘Love The Way You Lie’. JustJared.com is reporting that producer Alex Da Kid is working on the song with Rihanna. Just Jared also previewed some new lyrics from the song:

“Even angels have their wing cut schemes, and you take that to new extremes, but you will always be my hero, even though you lost your mind.”

Are these directed at Rihanna’s former bf Chris Brown?

I’m hesitant to even mention his name on here, but I’ve been learning to forgive, although I’m sure none of us will ever forget that night before the Grammy’s when Chris Brown beat Rihanna.

Chris Brown’s career has suffered a huge setback following that incident, but it looks like he’s making a bit of a comeback. His movie Takers took the top spot at the box office this past weekend and his single, “Deuces” featuring Tyga and Kevin McCall, is currently poised to overtake the Billboard Hot R&B and Hip-Hop songs chart.

Brown announced his new single ‘Calypso’ via Twitter last night. Brown tweeted, “Geeked UP!!! NEW SINGLE called ‘Calypso’ coming real soon produced by POLOW DA DON,” he wrote, “this is a song that women have been missing from ME!!”

Say it ain’t so!

According to reports, Usher and Chris Brown are planning a tour together. Jermaine Dupri and B. Michael Cox let the news slip during a video blog on Aug. 17th.

“Usher and the boy Chris Brown going on tour…y’all know that, right?” Cox said in the video. “They might don’t know that,” Dupri responded. “I might have just gave y’all some exclusive sh*t!” Cox quipped.

I don’t think this is a good idea at all! Chris Brown needs retire from the music business already.

There was not a dry-eye in the house at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on Sunday, June 27, 2010 when Chris Brown took to the BET AWARDS ’10 stage to honor the late Michael Jackson. Kanye West opened the show with a monumental performance of “Power” atop a smoky crag of rocks marking his return to the Awards show spotlight and circuit. King of the South T.I., backed by Travis Barker on drums and flaming pyrotechnics, tore the house down with his first national TV performance since being released from prison. Brown, West and T.I.’s show-stopping performances at this year’s tenth anniversary BET AWARDS ’10 provide platform for these three artists to re-emerge from the ashes for the negative publicity they recently faced to reclaim their status as superstars.

Is Chris Brown starting with the man in the mirror? He gave a weeping emotional performance at yesterday’s BET Awards Michael Jackson Tribute. When it was time for his performance of “Man in the Mirror,” he completely broke composure, tears running down his face as he struggled through the song until falling to his knees, unable to go on. The audience showed their love by loudly picking up the song, singing along. This after his dance to “Remember the Time,” “Smooth Criminal” and “Billie Jean.”

Maybe Chris Brown is starting with the man in the mirror. Since his sentencing last August for assaulting Rihanna Brown has amassed over 290 hours of community labor service and attended domestic violence classes. He still has hundreds of hours to go, however.
