Chris Brown Curses Out Twitter Critics Then Tries to Delete the Evidence

Chris Brown has a special Twitter message for those who hated on his Grammy performance: “F___ Off.”

The hip-hop performer lashed out on his Twitter account, addressing his critics in a series of missives ending with a final “F You.” A few minutes later, Brown (or his handlers) thought better of it and attempted to delete all evidence of his Twitter tantrum.

After promoting his new single, Brown took a moment to address those that criticized the star’s air time at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards. Brown made a series of tweets (since deleted) discussing that “we select who to hate” and seemed to liken his own felony-assault conviction to rappers who sell drugs and are still idolized.

Brown may have been awarded with a Grammy — and plenty of air time — on Sunday night, however the sentiment in the social TV space was largely negative. In 2009 Brown plead guilty to one-count of felony assault against then-girlfriend Rhianna. The altercation leading up the assault happened the night before the 2009 Grammy ceremony.

A trending topic on Twitter during the Grammys was the phrase “wife beater,” referring to Brown. Many have criticized the award show for giving Brown a platform to perform and be celebrated.

Understandably Brown’s tweet — and subsequent attempt to cover his tracks — have caused users on Twitter to respond in outrage. Brown’s current tweet? “Lol.” Charming.
