Chris Brown is apparently the father of 9-month-old baby girl. Help us all.
This news took us by surprise. The 25-year-old "Look At Me Now" singer is notorious for his violent behavior and getting kicked out of anger rehab. TMZ reported that the mother of the baby is a 31-year-old former model named Nia. While she and Brown aren't dating, they've known each other for years and are on good terms, sources said.
Brown is reportedly happy about being a new father. As for child support, Nia hasn't filed a formal order, but it's not clear if Brown is providing support informally, sources said.
TMZ tweeted out a photo of Brown and the baby:
