Rape charges against Chris Brown were because dropped because French investigators reportedly found it impossible to believe that the alleged victim did not attempt to escape or alert anyone.
The US rapper looked entirely carefree following his release and has even stayed in Paris - in the same hotel where the alleged incident took place - to film a music video.
Although the investigation is ongoing, a source told TMZ that the 'weakest part of the case is the alleged victim's statement to police'.

The woman said her horrifying ordeal occurred in the early hours of January 16 at the Mandarin Oriental in the French capital, where suites can cost more than $24,000 per night.
The 24-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, says she was attacked multiple times by Brown, his bodyguard and a family friend. The three men were subsequently arrested on Monday.
But according to TMZ, police disputed the allegations because the woman did not mention either trying to leave the suite or alerting anyone else to the attack.

The authorities then made the decision to release the trio from custody without any charge or conditions, the prosecutor's office said.
A source close to Brown even claimed to TMZ that police offered an apology to the musician when they let him go.
On Wednesday, Brown, 29, was spotted filming a music video on the bank of the river Seine, and later out in the city with his girlfriend Ammika Harris.
He appeared to be in good spirits and was reportedly proclaiming his love for everyone he saw.
Brown had previously used Instagram to deny raping the model at the drug-fueled party that she said turned 'violent and brutal'.
'For my daughter and my family this is so disrespectful and is against my character and morals,' Brown wrote in an all-caps caption to an Instagram post on Tuesday.
'This is false,' he wrote. The image on the post simply read: 'This b***h lyin'.

In an interview with French Closer magazine, the woman said she met Brown 'through a friend' who works at the Crystal Lounge nightclub on the Champs Elysee.
'This friend asked me what I was doing the next day, and if I would like to meet Chris Brown,' said the woman, who met the rapper on January 15.
'I said yes and the next day, on Tuesday, I had an appointment at 11.30pm at the Mandarin Oriental hotel to meet the rapper. At the reception of the hotel, I found myself with friends of his and other girls. We went up to his suite to pick him up and we all went to a nightclub called "The Quay".
'Everything was going well. Around 4am, they decided to go back to the hotel. I wanted to go home, but someone in Chris Brown's entourage took me by the arm and said: "Come on, we'll have a good evening."
'Leaving the nightclub, there were two Mercedes vans that were full up. So I said, "There's no place, I'm going home." Then I was told, "No, come on!". And I was put in Chris Brown's car with another girl.'
The group then returned to Brown's rooms at the Mandarin Oriental.
The woman told Closer: 'Before entering the suite, the bodyguard took all our cell phones. It didn't seem surprising given the artist's notoriety and I didn't worry. Once in the suite, we were offered drinks. There was cocaine and cannabis.
'There were about fifteen girls, friends of Chris Brown. The music was loud, people were coming in and out ... It was a bit chaotic.'

Asked if prostitutes were present, the woman said: 'I don't know. There were only very pretty girls.'
She continued: 'At one point, I went to the bathroom. Chris Brown followed me and took me by the right arm. He made me enter a sort of dressing room. He closed the door.'
Explaining what followed, the woman told the magazine: 'It lasted 25 to 30 minutes. It's still too difficult for me to explain in detail what he did, but it was brutal and violent.
'He was threatening and aggressive. I was very afraid. Once it was over, he opened the door. I told him that I wanted to pick up my cell phone and go home.
'Chris Brown went to see one of his friends. I thought this person was going to accompany me to the bodyguard for my cell phone, but that's not what he did.
'He took me to his room, he locked the door and he abused me too. It was the same with the bodyguard. All I wanted to do was go home. I was too scared. There were three muscular men, aggressive and menacing. I couldn't do anything. I'm traumatized, I can't overcome what happened to me and resume my habits. It's horrible, I'm lost.'
Asked by Closer how she managed to escape, the woman said: 'I said that I had to go to bed, that I had classes the next day. I cried. When he saw me like that, he returned my cell phone and I left.'

The woman reported the rape to police on Friday January 18. Confirming she had been hesitant, the woman explained: 'Yes. I was scared. They have my address, my cell number, my picture...
'But I didn't want them to be able to do the same thing to other girls. Chris Brown is the kind of person who thinks himself powerful and thinks himself above the law, but no. I'll go to the end. Abused three times in the same evening by three different men – it's unbearable to live with.'
The woman said she did not know if other women claim to have been raped that night.

'I don't know,' she said. 'Sometimes girls do not dare to speak. They are scared and I understand them, but I want them to stop doing this to girls who have not asked for anything.
'I just thought I was having a good night with a star. I didn't imagine that I was going to find myself locked up with aggressive and menacing men who forced me to do things I did not want to do.'
The three men, including Brown, were finally arrested at the hotel on Monday, and face charges of 'aggravated rape' and 'violation of drugs legislation', including using a 'banned drug'.
Referring to Brown, a prosecuting source in Paris said at the time: 'He is accused of a rape and is being held at the judicial police offices in the 1starrondissement.
'He was arrested with two others on Monday, and interviews and other enquiries are ongoing. All three men can be held for a period of up to 48 hours.'
A source close to the case claimed that 'a number of the suspects were carrying cocaine, which police found at the hotel after responding to a complaint.'
The singer's bodyguard is one of the two other men detained, according to police officials.
Brown's publicists at Sony Music would not immediately comment.
In 2009, Brown was charged with domestic violence in the United States against superstar singer Rihanna, his then girlfriend. He admitted the offences, and was sentenced to community service.
He completed his probation in that case in 2015 but has been beset by a series of further legal issues including further accusations of assault.
Brown was discovered by a record label when he was a boy working at his father's gas station in Virginia.
First identified as a rapper, Brown has since found success with his rich singing voice.
He is best-known for hits in the 2000s such as 'Run It' and 'Kiss Kiss.' He retains a loyal fandom, including nearly 50 million followers on Instagram.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
