Drunken driving conviction

LOS ANGELES, Calif.—Deputies handcuffed singer Bobby Brown and led him from a courtroom to a jail cell Wednesday morning, as Whitney Houston's ex-husband began serving time for a drunken driving conviction.

Although the judge sentenced Brown to 55 days behind bars for his second conviction in a year for driving under the influence, he will likely be free in eight or nine days, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore.

Beyoncé quietly dropped a bomb on Sunday when she posted a preview of her new music to her website.

If this new sound is any indication, the singer’s upcoming album will remind everyone that Queen Bey is holding onto her crown.

In the first half of the offering, “Bow Down” is explicit—in more ways than one.
