The television event of the century will not be televised. Rih-Rih’s testimony will not include any cameras being shoved all up in her covergirl caked face:
Television cameras won’t be present in the courthouse when Rihanna takes the witness stand at a preliminary hearing for Chris Brown’s assault trial on June 22nd, CNN reports. A court spokesperson said yesterday that Los Angeles Criminal Court Judge Patricia Schnegg opted to deny media requests to allow cameras into the courtroom for Rihanna’s testimony. No explanation was given for the ruling. A sketch artist will be allowed to draw the hearing, however.
After failing numerous times to postpone Monday’s hearing to avoid having Rihanna air potentially damaging details regarding the February 8th incident, Chris Brown’s legal team, led by lawyer Mark Geragos, will reportedly seek a plea agreement by next Monday to prevent Rihanna’s testimony. Rihanna’s lawyer Donald Etra previously said he cleared out his client’s calendar for this month to ensure that the “Umbrella” singer would be able to cooperate with the prosecution. “She will definitely comply with the subpoena and any court order,” Etra said.
Damn. We would have purchased TiVo just for that. Hey sketch artist dude, you make sure and draw Rih to the “T”…Cockatoo ‘do, red lipstick, goth steez and all, ya hear!
