Singer Chris Brown

Singer Chris Brown said he had to cancel his concerts in Canada after he was denied entry to the country Tuesday.
The "Kiss Kiss" singer tweeted about being prevented from crossing the border, but quickly removed those posts.
Canadian law says people convicted of a crime involving an assault could be deemed "criminally inadmissible" to the country. Brown has spent several months in jail for his 2009 arrest and subsequent conviction for an assault on his former girlfriend, singer Rihanna.
Brown was scheduled to play the Bell Centre in Montreal on Tuesday and the Air Canada Centre in Toronto on Wednesday.
