LOS ANGELES: Singer Chris Brown has voluntarily entered a rehabilitation facility to deal with his behaviour issues.

Brown was recently arrested for punching a man and breaking his nose. The singer pleaded guilty in the court and his punishment was reduced from arrest to misdemeanour simple assault. He entered the rehab October 29.

He wants to assess himself and lead a healthy life in future, reports eonline.com.

"Chris Brown has elected to enter a rehab facility. His goal is to gain focus and insight into his past and recent behaviour, enabling him to continue the pursuit of his life and his career from a healthier vantage point," said Brown's representative in a statement.

The singer has been in negative light from a long time. This included his 2009 physical assault case that involved his then girlfriend Rihanna.
