MANILA, Philippines—Grammy award-winning singer Chris Brown is finally on his way out of the Philippines after being stranded for three days due to a fraud complaint against him for a canceled concert last New Year’s Eve. But he has to sit through a three-hour delay at Manila’s airport and fly to Hong Kong instead of Macau.
Brown was able to obtain late Friday a certificate that allows him to leave the country, said Elaine Tan, spokeswoman of the Immigration Bureau.
The 26-year-old R&B artist performed Tuesday at a packed concert in Manila but wasn’t allowed to leave after a corporation, run by an influential religious group’s members, filed a fraud complaint against him for a canceled New Year’s Eve gig.
