Chris Brown says jail was "humbling" and made him fat

Chris Brown has been a free man since June, when his sentence for a probation violation ended, and he says serving time was a "humbling" experience that caused him to pack on a few pounds.

"At the time of the arrest, Brown was on probation in a felony assault case for attacking pop star Rihanna hours before the 2009 Grammy awards," the Associated Press reported. "The arrest led a judge in California to revoke his probation, and he was ordered in May to serve an additional 131 days in jail. He was released in June."

“It was definitely one of the things I’ll never forget," Brown said. "I think for me it’s now about what’s the purpose and what’s the goal that Chris Brown as a person and Chris Brown as an artist is trying to portray.”
