Chris Brown and his former girlfriend, Karrueche Tran were kept far away from each other by organisers of BET Awards on Sunday to avert the violation of the restraining order taken out against him by his Tran.


According to TMZ, the awards show went to great lengths to ensure the 28-year-old singer didn't come within 100 yards of his former girlfriend. Both stars were in attendance at the show in LA, with Chris performing, while his 29-year-old ex was a presenter.

Insiders say Karrueche was told in advance the notorious bad boy would be performing at the awards show, but she opted to go ahead with her appearance anyway, which had been arranged two months prior.

The Claws actress was apparently moved into a holding room during the Party singer's performance.

Sources say she didn't watch his performance on a screen from inside the room, and instead simply waited it out.

Furthermore, Chris never sat in the audience during the awards show.

He was kept backstage throughout the show to ensure their paths never crossed and to maintain the legal distance required between them.

Last week, a judge ordered the restraining order stay in place for the next five years.
