"Every three months you come up with something. What’s gonna be next?

According to , earlier in the day a large group of friends had been socialising at the mansion, including Kim Kardashian's infamous ex Ray J.
Then another guest arrived with two women.
The man was invited in but the women were not.
Ray J was apparently getting a tattoo when the disagreement first happened, but then left a few hours later.
Police impounded his BMW as evidence, which meant he had to take an Uber home.
Aerial pictures show police officers on the perimeter of the property and a deflated bouncy castle could be seen in the grounds.
Curran told the site she has partied with Brown before, and he always seemed very nice.
When she tried to leave the property, she says Brown's people didn't want her to take her cellphone unless she signed a non-disclosure agreement.
She refused to sign and she and her friend left.
On Tuesday she posted a video to Instagram saying: 'Do you all think I honestly wanted this? And I caused this?
"If somebody put a gun to your head what would you do? Call the police?"
Cops told media outside of the mansion at a press conference that after initially being aggravated, Brown was co-operating.
LAPD Lt. Chris Ramirez said: "We're getting the cooperation of everyone that came out."
No arrests have been made.
Geragos told he was inside the home with Brown, who says he has done nothing wrong.
Earlier in the day cops had said they were "trying to make contact with the residents here in Tarzana" but were failing.
And an officer told reporters outside the home: "We need their co-operation in order to deal with this in a peaceful manner."
Brown also plugged his new track in the Instagram rants and referred to the Black Lives Matter movement.
He went on to say media reports were saying the stand-off more serious than it actually was. He wrote: "'Barricaded myself in my house?' Have you seen my house! Imma barricade myself in a palace! I’m not coming out! But what? I ain’t did s***. I ain’t gonna do s***! You idiots. I’m tried of f**ing with it all. You’re the worse gang in the world, the police. And I said it. F*** you."
The rapper has had numerous run ins with the law starting with his infamous conviction for assaulting Rihanna, who he was then dating, in February 2009.
He was sentenced to five years of probation, one year of domestic violence counselling, and six months of community service.
His probation was lifted last year.
He narrowly avoided jail for three months in 2014 for violating his probation when he allegedly hit a man in Washington. It was then revoked in January last year after a report claimed he had a "knack" for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
In June this he was accused of stamping on a man's head during a nightclub appearance at the Cannes Film Festival.
Cops are said to have been called to his house five times this year due to complaints of disturbing of the peace.
