He was on the bubble for a while -- but now Wrigley is "formally terminating" their relationship with Chris Brown.
The chewing gum company had previously "suspended" their campaign with Brown in February after the incident with Rihanna, saying they "believe Mr. Brown should be afforded the same due process as any citizen."
But last month, Brown pled guilty to felony assault -- and now Wrigley has given him the permanent heave-ho ... which means you're more likely to hear that "Double Your Pleasure" song at a wedding than on TV.
So Chris dodged the jail bullet -- but his wallet may have a more serious hit.

They keep airing the Sham-Wow punk, but Chris loses his endorsements. The double standards in this country is sickening. Montgomery Gentry purchased a bear for the purpose of killing it and he killed it but is off free as a bird. Michael Vick kills dogs and goes to prison. Can someone help me understand?

I dont chew that sorry gum anyway and I like Chris way more then any gum... and lets not forget even though Pepsi claimed to have droped Michael Jackson from advertising... they STILL promoted his concerts and cherity events. Where ther is money.. advertisers will come. Chris, like it or not is MONEY!! Just like Sean Penn, Terrence Howard, J.Z. , Fiddy cent, Eric roberts, Josh Brollin, ect ect ect... They will always hold some sort of court with Chris and I dont mean legal!! Chris took a dent.. but it isnt permonate!! And I like his music too!!! Who cares if anyone after me does not like Chris or his music... The kid is talented and thats all show biz is... Talented people who fall from grace many many many times!!

Lesson to men. Stay a way from violent girls. As when you oush them after they hit you, the man is a felon and loses money. Women and the government $uck.

Women are just as likely as men to engage in violence, but only the man is punished.

Just another punk getting away with violence. I would have liked to have seen him in jail as felons should be; but because he's got "Celebrity" status he's allowed to get away with doing no jail time. WHAT A GREAT WORLD WE LIVE IN. No wonder it's going to hell!

USA double standards $uck. Vic, a man, gets two years in prison and loses his job, and bankruptcy for killing a couple dogs. Mary Winkler, a woman, shoots her husband in the back and kills him, gets 2 months in jail, a visit to Oprah and the government gives her children back. WTF America - you hate men.

Chris Brown should record a remake of the Sam Cooke classic Chain Gang. Oh wait he doesn't really need to do that since his punk butt will soon be on a REAL Chain Gang. Ha Ha Ha Ha!
