An earlier version of this article incorrectly stated that the yacht where Brown allegedly drugged and sexually assaulted the unidentified woman belonged to P. Diddy. However, that is not the case. The yacht was docked near P. Diddyโs home in Miami and this article has been updated to reflect the correction.
It appears things arenโt going breezy for Chris Brown.
Per The Guardian, the โNo Guidanceโ artist is currently being sued for $20 million by an unidentified woman who alleges Brown drugged and raped her on yacht docked near P. Diddyโs home in Miami last December.
According to the suit, the womanโa professional choreographer, dancer, model, and musicianโand her friend were invited to the yacht by a male friend over the phone. At some point during the conversation, Brown took the phone, admitted to knowing about the woman, (identified only as Jane Doe in court documents) and urged the ladies to come as soon as possible. Upon their arrival, Brown offered the woman a mixed drink and began to converse with her about her career and the music industry. Then things began to take a turn.
More from The Guardian:
He allegedly refilled her cup, after which she became โdisoriented, physically unstable, and started to fall in and out of sleepโ, according to the suit.
It claims she was led to a bedroom where Brown closed the door and refused to let her leave. The complaint alleges that he undressed and raped her, and that after he ejaculated inside her, he announced โhe was โdoneโโ. It alleges that Brown demanded Doe take an emergency contraceptive the following day. It claims she was led to a bedroom where Brown closed the door and refused to let her leave.

Brown has since responded to the suit, writing in an Instagram story: โI hope yโall see this pattern of [baseball cap emoji] whenever Iโm releasing music or projects, โtheyโ try to pull some real bullshit.โ
As previously reported by The Root, Brown also currently under investigation for assaulting another woman last June though his attorneyโs have yet to publicly respond to that matter.
