Michelle Obama Attends Beyonce Concert
7 Weird Ways To Bug-Proof Your Picnic
Tons of celebs use Twitter to express their thoughts at any given time. A few of these very same celebs have Tweeted themselves into quite a bit of hot water because of their controversial posts. Chris Brown is the latest in the round of famous folks who have come to realize the power of these social networks when it's way too late.
The 21-year-old R&B sensation recently went on a Tweeting tirade against Atlanta-based celeb gossip blogger Sandra Rose (pictured below). Reportedly, Brown resorted to attacking the blogger's complexion by using juvenile "you're so black" jokes.
Folks who witnessed the youngster's color-struck Tweets against Rose were up in arms about the childish comments and lashed back at Brown, calling him a racist, among other things.
Instead of apologizing for his off-color remarks, Brown simply Tweeted the following to his critics:
"For everyone who thinks I'm being racist... go to bed... for God sakes, I have a song called 'Brown Skin Girl'... Grow up. I ain't thinkin' about you."
Do you buy Brown's "I'm just joking" defense or do you think he's color struck?

He lost his nice boy (next door) image when he chose to worship the darkside of satanism, which is prevelant in the intertainment Hell-o-wood lifestyle.

I barely hear his music on the radio and he's running around town begging and asking why. I see why. Your career is already looking grave but it may have flatlined now. I was a supporter of Chris getting it together but now I could careless.

Seriously Chris, your just an idiot. Your mom and other family members should tell you (and you should listen) to just be quite for a couple of years while the public begins to heal their opinion of you for the Brianna insident. Every time I think things are about to cool off here you go with some more stupid behaviors. You are simply throwing you career down the tubes. You are young right now and still have a chance to rebuild your career, but as we all know the older you get the harder it will be to rebuild your career. You are waisting precious time and you should grow up and get a clue.

After reading all of your post. I have to say, we as black people do play the dozens with each other. Most of the time we know to play them with a person we have a good relationship with and or that we know they will have a good sense of humor about it. It is obvious that Chris and this woman don't have this relationship. I also do understand this young man is young, but he is 21 and needs to begin to grow up. He is a celeberity and he is trying to get his career back on track. He should be mature enough and listen to family and other business and legal persons that I am sure have been telling him to watch his step. If he can not get his career back ( and God knows I don't wish bad on this young man) it is going to be his own faught, by his own stupidities.

Is Ruth Manuel-Logan serious about this story? Why are we giving this any thought? Black people joke in this manner all the time. There is nothing seemingly "color-struck" about these statements. these saying are no different than the jokes told on the now defunct "Yo Mama". Please peeple. Get a life and let this kid live his. This media policing(stalking) is ridiculous.

Most of the stars are color struck. they all have light skinned girlfriends, Asian, or Hispanic. I can count on one hand how many have dark wives or girlfriends. It looks that way to me.
