Singing sensation Chris Brown, 19, is going through major professional scrutiny after being arrested and charged with making criminal threats to girlfriend Rihanna this past Sunday. Now the companies using Brown’s image and name to peddle their products are feeling the pinch. Got Milk is severing ties with Brown and ending his Milk Mustache campaign at the end of this week, according to Reuters. Brown’s ad launched last fall and is scheduled to end this week. Wrigley’s Doublemint Gum has already suspended their endorsement deal with Brown.—QS
