In the image, Brown — who was sentenced to 180 days of community labor for assaulting on/off girlfriend Rihanna — poses in a fluorescent orange vest, baggy jeans and a white vest as he clears weeds next to a railway track.

Under the picture, posted on his Twitter page, the 20-year-old star wrote: “Check out my new outfit!”

Wednesday was Chris’ first day of community service, which he is completing in Virginia. He appeared to be in good spirits, taking time out to wave at fans who gathered to watch him work.

It is understood he will perform different types of labour over the course of his sentence, but exact details will not be released.

Chris has hired additional guards to protect him while he serves the sentence.

Chris attacked Rihanna in his car as they left a pre-Grammy Awards party in February, repeatedly punching her in the face and biting her arms.

He pleaded guilty to assault and in August was sentenced to six months of community service, 12 months of domestic violence counselling and five years probation.

The judge also issued a restraining order which requires him to stay at least 100 yards from Rihanna for five years.

Earlier this week, Brown pleaded with Rihanna to give him another chance.

“MY HEART IS INCOMPLETE… the part that is complete is my love for fans, career, friends, family… God. But I’m missing someone or something,” Brown, 20, wrote on his Twitter page.

To ensure it was clear who he was referring to, Chris posted a link to a version of his new song Changed Man on video sharing website YouTube which features a series of pictures of him and Rihanna together.

Among the photographs are several of the couple — who dated for around 18 months — kissing and cuddling, and others of them laughing and whispering to each other.

Chris added on Twitter, “Sorry all, just one of those days.”
