Chris Brown allowed to go near Rihanna now

Pop singer Chris Brown is now allowed go near Rihanna.

A judge has lifted the restraining order that prohibited Brown from going near the Rude Boy singer, reports TMZ.

Brown appeared in court in downtown LA, where a judge replaced Rihanna's restraining order with a level one order, which means Brown and Rihanna can have contact as long as he does not harass, annoy, or molest her.

Rihanna was not in court but her attorney Donald Etra told the judge Rihanna has no objection to the new order.
