 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.

 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.
