NEW YORK (AP) - There won't be any awkward Chris Brown moment at
the Kids' Choice Awards - the embattled pop star has withdrawn his
name from the ballot.
Brown had been nominated for favorite male singer and favorite
song for "Kiss Kiss" at the March 28 awards show on Nickelodeon.
The nominations came shortly before his arrest for allegedly
attacking girlfriend and fellow pop star Rihanna.
A petition had been circulated to take his name off the ballot,
but Nickelodeon said yesterday he was still on. On Wednesday, Brown
decided to take his name out of consideration.
In a statement, his representatives said while Brown would like
to speak directly to his fans, he can't because of his criminal
case.
He thanked his fans for their support.
