Chris Brown is seeing red after a rumor started about him using a particularly charming pickup line at pre-Grammy party. Says E! Online,

Earlier this week, Us Weekly reported that Brown, who pleaded guilty to a particularly brutal felony assault of Rihanna three years ago, attempted to sweet-talk a brunette at a pre-Grammy gifting lounge by telling her, “Can I get your number? I promise I won’t beat you!”

Well, the 22-year-old’s rep is now vehemently denying that any such encounter took place.

“That is absurd and absolutely not true,” his publicist told E! News. “He did not say that nor would he joke about that.”

God, people! How dare you make such crap up! You should know better that Chris Brown would never promise to not beat a woman up. He reserves the right to smack his bitches as he sees fit, and don’t you be forgetting that!
