Michael Phelps isn't the only celeb possibly losing endorsement deals in wake of controversy.
Wrigley announced today it is suspending its ad campaign for Doublemint gum featuring Chris Brown.
The 19 year old R&B singer is facing serious charges for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend pop star Rihanna Sunday night in Los Angeles.
Wrigley said in a statement, "We have made the decision to suspend the current advertising featuring Brown and any related marketing communications until the matter is resolved."
The company would not go as far as saying they are dropping him completely, saying Brown should be "afforded the same due process as any citizen."
