Chris Brown Pleads Guilty

The verdict has been handed down in the now-infamous case between Chris Brown and Rihanna.  After pleading guilty on one count of felony assault, Brown received six months of community labor and five years of supervised probation.  Additionally, he must complete classes on domestic violence, and a court order has been imposed where he must stay 50 yards away from Rihanna, except at industry events, where he must stay only 10 yards away from the pop songstress.  Brown will be sentenced on August 5 and is likely to serve most of his time in his native Virginia.

Having been convicted of a felony, how do you think this will affect Chris Brown's career?  Or will it at all?  How much of an impact will this have on Rihanna's music career, if any?  Let us know your opinion here on YouMusic.com!
