50 Cent Deems Chris Brown The 'Best Overall Artist Out'
'CB out he made bond, I'm only saying sh*t about him because I think he is the best overall artist out,' the Queens rapper, 49, declared. 'I watched his whole run!' See the post below.
Brown, 36, was arrested and taken into custody at The Lowry Hotel in Manchester on Thursday, May 15. The arrest stems from a 2023 incident where the singer allegedly assaulted producer Abe Diaw with a bottle of alcohol at Tape nightclub.
'A 36-year-old man was arrested at a hotel in Manchester shortly after 02:00hrs on Thursday, 15 May on suspicion of grievous bodily harm,' a Metropolitan Police spokesperson confirmed. 'He has been taken into custody where he remains. The arrest relates to an incident at a venue in Hanover Square on 19 February 2023. The investigation is being led by detectives from the Central West Area Basic Command Unit.'
After being denied bail once, Brown was released on $6.7M bail following a hearing on Wednesday (May 21), with the amount being forfeited if certain conditions are not met or if he does not make it to his next court appearance, the British Press Association reported.
Brown is now free to begin the European leg of his Breezy Bowl Tour. Between shows at Cardiff's Principality Stadium and London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, however, the 'Sensational' artist has a court date of June 20. He has also been ordered by Judge Tony Baumgartner to surrender his passport unless it is being used for tour purposes.

Met officer recalls terrifying moment she realised true horror of 7/7 attacks
A first responder has recounted the chilling moment she grasped the true horror of the 7 July bombings, two decades after the devastating attacks. Superintendent Anna Bearman, then a 23-year-old police constable with the Metropolitan Police response team, was on duty when suicide bombers struck three London Underground trains and a bus. Initially, she and her three colleagues were informed of an incident at King's Cross, believed to be a fire. However, Ms Bearman vividly recalls the pinch-in-the-stomach feeling as she understood the situation was far more sinister than first reported. She said: 'On July 7, it was a nice summer's morning and everyone was elated because we had just won the bid for the London Olympics the day before. 'We were on duty and heard that there was confusion at King's Cross and that perhaps there'd been a fire, so we made our way down to the train station. 'As we were by Euston station, we were asked to divert to Russell Square, and we were told that there were injured people fleeing both stations. 'I remember that being the moment when I thought that it wasn't a fire, and it was something more sinister. It was a pinch-in-the-stomach moment.' Ms Bearman described how the four constables in the vehicle fell silent, as it dawned on them that it was a major incident. Upon arrival, they saw dozens of people running out of Russell Square station, with many suffering from injuries. She said: 'There were walking wounded and a sense of hysteria and panic, but we couldn't stop and speak to them because we had to get into the tunnel to help those who couldn't walk out. 'We walked about a mile on the tracks, and then we carried one person out who had lost a lower limb, as there were no stretchers, and we took them out a mile back to Russell Square.' After carrying a second injured person out and returning to the train for a third time, they were told there were no more people who needed to be rescued, and they turned to finding oxygen tanks for the injured in the makeshift triage area. Ms Bearman recalls: 'After that, the main task was directing and reassuring members of the public, trying to keep them calm in the moment. 'Later on, I saw that my trousers and my legs were absolutely blood-stained, and that was when the shock of the whole day set in. 'The 20-year anniversary is really important to remember the people who have been affected, the lives lost, but also their families and loved ones.' Dr Peter Holden, a GP from Derbyshire, was 50 when the bombings took place. He was not supposed to be in London on 7 July, but, in his role as deputy chair of the BMA GP committee, he was called to a meeting with a government minister at BMA House in Tavistock Square. That was where a fourth device exploded on a bus that had been diverted after the attacks on Aldgate, Edgware Road and Russell Square Tube stations. Dr Holden, who had received major incident training and helped dozens of people on the day, recalls: 'I realised it was really serious when the Royal London helicopter was hovering overhead for a considerable length of time. 'And then I just turned around to my colleague Mary Church, who's the chair of the committee, we heard a bang and then everything just went salmon pink. 'It was something that shook the ground. We were three floors above where the bomb on the bus went off, and we looked out of the window, and there was a white plume of smoke, and the tree canopy had gone. 'When I got downstairs, there were people being brought in on collapsible table tops used for conferences as makeshift stretchers.' As someone with emergency care training, Dr Holden recalls directing 15 doctors and setting up a makeshift triage area. He remains proud of the effort his team made in the crisis, despite having to make difficult decisions surrounding who to prioritise in the moment. Dr Holden said: 'There was a complete range of people – there were Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus, those of no particular faith. 'I think there were eight different nationalities from all over the world – medicine is really an international practice. 'But we had to leave two people who we describe as P1 expectants, those who are deeply unconscious and for whom medical care is extremely unlikely to help, and you just have to leave them with another human being so they are not on their own. 'It was the most difficult decision of my life, and it still haunts me, because there's a humanity in delivering care. 'It was a terrible day, but I was thankful that I was there and could help people.'

England's Lionesses find a home from home at Zurich's fairy-tale ‘castle'
ZURICH (AP) — England's hotel at the Women's European Championship is a 'home from home,' although it is likely a step above the players' normal abodes. Nestled in the woods on top of a hill overlooking Zurich and flaunting an array of spires and cupolas, the iconic Dolder Grand looks like a castle that has jumped straight out of a book of fairy tales. Inside, old-world grandeur with chandeliers and sweeping staircases meets sleek modernity, as well as panoramic views over Lake Zurich and the Alps. 'My first 24 hours here I was just going 'Whoa, whoa!' the whole time,' said England defender Esme Morgan, who plays for Washington Spirit in the United States. 'We feel very lucky with how well we've been taken care of and its sort of the perfect base for us to go on through the tournament and where everyone can just relax and get together to watch the other games.' The players can also relax by perusing the Dolder Grand's art collection with more than 100 works by artists including Salvador Dalí and actor Sylvester Stallone. The hotel has a 4,000 square-meter spa, that includes an infinity hot tub with stunning views — an ideal place for the Lionesses to recover after a match. England began its title defense by losing to France 2-1 on Saturday and next plays on Wednesday against the Netherlands in Group D. 'We feel super welcome' Rooms at the Dolder Grand start at 740 Swiss Francs ($930) a night for a double to around 14,500 Swiss Francs ($18,300) for the two-floor Presidential Suite — which, like some of the other suites, includes a butler service. The Dolder Grand — which featured in the movie 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' — was chosen after a year-long search by the English Football Association, with staff having the perhaps enviable job of visiting 23 facilities, tasked with finding the team a home from home. 'About a year ago, for the first time, I stepped into the door of the Dolder and we could just feel the excitement of the hotel staff,' said the team's general manager, Anja van Ginhoven. 'One of the first things they said to us, similar to The Lensbury (on the outskirts of London where the Lionesses stayed in 2022), they said 'We want to be part of this.' 'We feel super welcome and very supported. All they want to do is give us a great home away from home.' The Lionesses arrived on their team bus, shortly after flying into Zurich, and were greeted by beaming hotel staff. Guests normally arrive by car — often very nice ones — or by a short journey up on the rack-and-pinion railway, which has its terminus adjacent to the hotel. The hotel dates back to 1899 although it underwent an extensive renovation at the start of the century, led by Norman Foster. Dignitaries and film stars Apart from the reigning European champions, the Dolder Grand has hosted a plethora of celebrities, from Hollywood stars such as Elizabeth Taylor and Leonardo DiCaprio, to the Rolling Stones, as well as royalty and dignitaries including Winston Churchill, the Shah of Persia and King Charles, when he was a bachelor prince. The Dolder Grand also had a cameo role in FIFA business and soccer conferences during the presidency of Sepp Blatter that ended in 2015. During the now-notorious World Cup bidding contests for the 2018 and 2022 tournaments, scandal implicated two FIFA executive committee members weeks before they were due to vote. FIFA vice president Reynald Temarii was staying at the Dolder Grand the night before he was due for a dressing-down meeting with Blatter at FIFA headquarters. In 1996, the hotel is also where FIFA — with Blatter as secretary general — formally sealed the diplomatic deal to have World Cup co-hosts for the first time, awarding the 2002 edition to Japan and South Korea. Uncertain stay Just how long England will be able to enjoy the grande dame of Zurich hotels remains to be seen. Sarina Wiegman's team also faces the Netherlands and Wales in Group D. Football may or not be 'coming home' — as England's team anthem goes — but the Lionesses might not want to. ___ AP Sports Writer Graham Dunbar contributed to this report ___ AP soccer:
