Chris Brown Announces Plans to Leave California: 'Time For Something

Publish date: 2024-10-12

Chris Brown could be the next California resident to pack up and find some new surroundings -- the R&B megastar says he's moving on from the Golden State.

Chris posted Monday ... "LA it's been FUN. Cali will always be my second home but I think it's time for me to try something different." He buttoned his farewell note with a 💗, so it doesn't appear there's anything too heavy behind the move.

Breezy's time in Cali has been the backdrop for virtually all his major headlines -- good and bad.

He's fended off noise and party complaints from neighbors for years at several of his residences -- and also dazzled fans with yard sales, liquidating rare clothing and memorabilia items.

Of course, he's also been pinched under the state's criminal justice system a few times -- most infamously for the 2009 Rihanna beating.

Chris didn't say where he's heading (or even if he's definitely moving), but if he's inclined to follow others fleeing Cali lately ... Texas, Florida and Tennessee are the hot spots.
