Chris Brown's career as singer is over if allegations that he assaulted Rihanna are proved true leading US music industry figures have said. Brown handed himself in to LA police after officers responded to a phone call on in the early hours of Sunday morning. His girlfriend Rihanna was taken to the emergency room of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center with reports claiming she suffered two "huge contusions" on both sides of her forehead, a bloody lip and nose. "If it's true, his career is probably over," Billboard magazine's editorial director Bill Werde said. Chewing gum makers Wrigley, who had recently signed Brown up to a lucrative deal, have announced they have suspended their ads following Sunday's incident. "Wrigley is concerned by the serious allegations made against Chris Brown," a company spokesperson said. "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." Brown is due in court March 5.
