R&B hitmaker Chris Brown has revealed that in order to prepare for his role in the new film 'Battle Of The Year: The Dream Team' he rehearsed complicated dance moves for 3 months.

He made his acting debut back in '07's 'Stomp The Yard' and now stars in this new movie about dance although it was a lot more challenging. Brown told U.S. radio station Power 106 about the effort he had to put in:

"I've just done a movie called 'Battle Of The Year', it's like my first actual break-dancing movie that I've done. It's not just regular, conventional dancing - I really had to learn. I studied with a B-boy (street dancer)... he taught me for three months straight. I'm not arrogant and I like to learn! I don't know everything, there's always something to be learned."

He also joked about the rumours that suggest he is being considered for the big screen adaptation of 'Fifty Shades Of Grey', adding:

"I heard that (rumour)! I read the book, I think it'll be dope. I know the character's white, so I know a lot of people (might say), 'That's not true to the book! Not true to the book! Why Chris? Come on!'"
