R&B star Chris Brown’s deal with chewing gum brand Wrigley has been cut short, as the company has dropped him. CB was signed on to promote the firm''s Doublemint flavor in 2008. However, the advertisments starring him were pulled from air temporarily in February after he was accused of assaulting his then-girlfriend Rihanna.
Now, they have dropped him completely!
"Wrigley is concerned by the serious allegations made against Chris Brown. We believe Mr. Brown should be afforded the same due process as any citizen. However, we have made the decision to suspend the current advertising featuring Brown and any related marketing communications until the matter is resolved,"
A statement released by the Wrigley bosses.
