 Rihanna wants Chris Brown's court order downgraded.
The 'Umbrella' singer doesn't feel it is necessary for the 'Run It' singer - who pleaded guilty of assaulting her in February - to have to keep 50 yards away from her at all times.

"The order in effect now is a stay-away order preventing them from coming within 50 yards of each other.

Rihanna asks police for her jewellery back |
|
|
 RIHANNA has asked the police to return the jewellery they took from her as evidence the night she was allegedly attacked by her boyfriend Chris Brown.
Police took earrings and three rings from the singer after the alleged assault, which took place hours before the Grammy Awards ceremony in February.
The items are worth over $1.4m (£1m) and were on loan from a shop that has now asked the Umbrella star to return them as soon as possible.
Rihanna's lawyer Donald Etra, said the detective overseeing the case did not object to the return of the items.
She told the BBC: "Apparently, initially, the police felt that it would be needed as evidence. Now the belief is that photographs would be more than sufficient.
"That being the case, we're asking the District Attorney to return the pieces." |
