Rihanna may testify against Chris Brown

Singer could be cross-examined in June hearing

Rihanna's been linked to Canadian hip-hop artist Aubrey Graham, but he insists they're just friends

Rihanna may have to give evidence against ex-boyfriend Chris Brown in court.

The hip hop star was arrested in LA on 8 February after he allegedly attacked the Umbrella singer, 21, in their rented car.

But prosecutors want Rihanna to take to the stand next month to determine if there’s enough evidence to proceed with the trial.

‘The District Attorney has advised me that she will be subpoenaed [to testify],’ her laywer Donald Etra tells People. ‘She absolutely will comply.’

Chris, 19, has pleaded not guilty to two charges of assault and one of making criminal threats.

The hearing has been scheduled for 22 June.
