Chris Brown Says He Was Uninvited from Participating in 2024 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game

Chris Brown claimed on Instagram that he was initially invited to play in the 2024 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game but was later uninvited due to objections from sponsor RUFFLES. Brown shared screenshots of correspondence from the NBA detailing logistics for the event and uniforms. He expressed frustration, stating that he was tired of people bothering him and clarified that he would not attend the All-Star Weekend even though the NBA suggested he could sit court-side. Brown did not specify the reasons for his removal but mentioned past issues, including the 2009 assault of Rihanna.
