Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Legal Issues, Rumors,

"Police will refer the case to the D.A.[District Attorney] as a felony attempted robbery and not a battery case. The routine is to go after the suspect for the most serious charge," according to TMZ.

The photographer continued to ask Kanye questions after he told him not to and Kanye is said to have attempted to punch the man, who then fell to the ground, Samir Chantre, a Brazilian jiujitsu instructor who was returning from a flight from Brazil at the time, witnessed the incident and explained, "Five photographers started shooting pictures of him and one of them was over the microphone and was saying stuff to him.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Legal Issues, Rivalries,

Chris Brown and Frank OceanChris Brown may be prosecuted over his fight with Frank Ocean.

The rival singers were involved in a brawl back in January after Frank was accused of blocking Chris' car from leaving Westlake Recording Studios in Los Angeles and despite previous reports the case had been closed, the "Turn Up the Music" hitmaker is still under a criminal battery investigation, according to website TMZ. Despite Frank, 25, not pressing charges against the singer, the Los Angeles County District Attourney's Office's file is still active and the incident could be named at Chris' probation review hearing later today.

Chris is still on probation after he beat ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009 and is also being investigated for an alleged hit-and-run incident which took place in Beverly Hills last month. He was reportedly never worried Frank would press charges against him after the confrontation, and the pair are said to have put their "misunderstanding" behind them.

Justin BieberJustin Bieber's bodyguards are being investigated for alleged battery.

The 19-year-old singer's security team have been accused of roughing up a fan, who tried to take a picture of Justin at a hookah lounge in Hollywood. A source told gossip website TMZ.com that one of the "Beauty and a Beat" hitmaker's bodyguards tried to stop the person, who was not a paparazzo, from taking photographs and a scuffle ensued.

Law enforcement sources said that police have opened a misdemeanor battery investigation but that Justin is not a suspect as it's unclear whether he had any role in the incident.


Rob Kardashian Charged

Rob KardashianRob Kardashian has been charged with petty theft and battery. The reality TV star was charged with one count of each misdemeanor after allegedly attacking a photographer and stealing her equipment in an altercation in Los Angeles in March.

The criminal charges come shortly after the alleged victim, Andra Vaik, filed a lawsuit for alleged robbery and assault over the row, which was sparked by her taking a shirtless picture of him as he worked out at the gym. "While this case is still in the preliminary stage, it is clear from our investigation that Robert Kardashian's violent behavior and his use of force towards Ms. Vaik was completely unjustified," Andra's lawyer said last month.

Rob - who has been struggling with his weight ever since breaking up with singer Rita Ora last December - insists the paparazzo was trespassing on private property in order to get a shot of him. He says he was justified in snatching the memory card out of the camera, with eye-witnesses backing up his claim the photographer was lying in wait in her car in the garage at his West Hollywood gym. Andra filed a robbery report at the time, despite the 26-year-old star insisting he would pay her back.
