Rogers says it's pulling its sponsorship of an upcoming Chris Brown concert in Dartmouth after people on Twitter called for a boycott of the show.


The hip hop star is scheduled to perform at an event called Energy Rush at Alderney Landing on August 31.


But those opposed to the show say the people in the city shouldn't support the artist who was once convicted of assaulting his girlfriend.


Early Saturday morning, Rogers replied on Twitter, saying it's pulling its sponsorship from the event. The Rogers spokesperson said they didn't know who would be headlining the show when they agreed to be the main sponsor.
