Brown is part of one of their current advertising campaigns, and one of his ads aired during the Grammys last night – an event Brown missed due to being arrested on assault charges (possibly involving his girlfriend Rihanna, though neither side is talking). The gum company plans to give the pop star the benefit of the doubt, but for now is suspending their ad campaign with him. source
