Chris Brown plans on making a triumphant return to the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on February 11, 2012 Breaking Celebrity News is exclusively reporting.

Brown is nominated for three Grammys, Best R & B Album, Best Rap Performance, and Best Rap Song.

It was only three years ago that Brown was arrested and charged with felony battery on his then girlfriend, Rihanna, on the night before the 2009 Grammy Awards.

"Chris has grown tremendously as a person, and an artist from that time in his life,”  a source close to Brown tells Breaking Celebrity News. “Chris has complied with all terms of his probation and has completed most of his court ordered community service. He has been a model probationer, but more importantly, Chris accepted responsibility for what he did. Chris took that experience and vowed to learn from it and become a better person, and he was thrilled and truly humbled that he was nominated for three Grammys.

“Chirs absolutely plans on attending the Grammys and is in talks with producers of the show to possibly perform. Chris performed at the MTV Video Music Awards several months ago, and his performance was simply over the top as he was flying through the air like an acrobat. Chris' performance stole the show, and he would love to do so
