Outrage over Chris Brown tweets
The blogosphere is outraged over Twitter users’ response to troubled singer Chris Brown’s Grammy Awards performance last night. As you know, last night was the first time Brown attended the Grammys in 3 years since 2009 when he beat the crap out of his ex-girlfriend Rihanna.
Critics expressed outrage that Brown’s immature young fans were tweeting that they would let Brown beat them up, or inflict damage to their genital areas.
But why are we surprised when the teen pregnancy rate is at an all-time high due to the lack of morals and no sex education in schools? The anger and indignation should have been reserved for the Grammy Recording Academy who rewarded Brown with a trophy for Best R&B album.
Examples of the fans’ tweets are below and after the break ( courtesy of Colorlines blog).
In Case You Missed It: Chris Brown performs on Grammys
Troubled singer Chris Brown lip synced during the 54th Annual Grammy Awards at the Staples Center for the first time since beating the crap out of his former girlfriend, Rihanna, in 2009.
Brown’s performance was made possible by a sympathetic judge who lifted his restraining order last year at the request of Rihanna’s legal team. Brown lip synced a techno junk medley of his songs “Turn Up The Music” and “Beautiful People” much to the delight of his fans who squealed when he came out onstage in tight grey skinny jeans.

Halle Berry heads back to court after Gabe Aubry’s racial assault on nanny
Scroll down for updates…
Gabe Aubry has serious issues. This, according to Halle Berry, who is taking the Canadian underwear model back to court for losing his cool and assaulting her nanny.
Radaronline.com reports that Aubry hurled racial epithets and physically assaulted their daughter Nahla’s nanny last week. It seems that Aubry kept Nahla home from school for 2 days because he claimed she the 3-year-old was sick. But Aubry neglected to tell Nahla’s nanny, who went to the child’s private school looking for her.
“The nanny went to pick Nahla up at school and she wasn’t there, so she went to Gabriel’s home,” a source told RadarOnline.com. “Gabriel and the nanny got into an argument because no one alerted her that Nahla didn’t go to school.”
The source told RadarOnline.com Aubry allegedly called the nanny a racial slur, before things took a turn for the physical.
“She picked up Nahla to leave and Gabriel yelled at her and shoved her out the door so hard that she hit the wall — while she had Nahla in her arms!” the source alleges, adding that the nanny claims the abuse is ongoing.
According to Radaronline.com, the nanny is so distraught that she has turned in her resignation. Good for Halle for standing up for her people!
According to TMZ, the police report has been filed. Click image to read the report.
Sneak Peek: Love & Hip Hop, Episode 9, Miami Was Crazy
The ladies are back from their VH1-sponsored, all expenses paid jaunt to Miami. As you may recall, Yandy Smith, aka Don King, briefly tussled with Jim Jones’ fiancee, Chrissy Lampkin, in Miami (actually they didn’t touch each other).
Back in NY, Yandy sits down with Olivia and Emily B. to ponder over what went wrong.
Newcomer Erica Mena tells VIBE magazine why she knocked Kimbella’s wig askew in their first meeting: “I decided to become a Bronx b—h and snuff her.” VIBE asks Erica why she jumped off in Kimbella’s mug in the first place. “I think I mentioned that she was a joke and even her man laughs at her, probably with the next b—h,” said Erica.
Love & Hip Hop airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on VH1.
In Case You Missed It: Love & Hip Hop, Episode 8
Just to prove what a hoodrat she is, Jim Jones’ longtime girlfriend, Chrissy Lampkin, 40, instigates a fight with his 24-year-old manager, Yandy Smith, aka Don King. The actual fight is mostly a lot of pushing and shoving by the ladies with about a hundred crew members and extras between them. It was really nothing to write home about.
The main subject of interest on Twitter.com last night seemed to be what Yandy was wearing. In an effort to show that Yandy has at least an outward appearance of style, VH1 posted these photos of her on their blog today.
It’s hard to like Yandy because she comes off as a sneaky and untrustworthy bish. Physically, all her body parts are the right shape and size, and she dresses cute for the most part. But as soon as she opens her mouth, it’s hard to see her beauty shine through all that ugliness.
Do better, Yandy…
Update: Floyd Mayweather won’t have to turn himself in until June 1
Scroll down for updates…
Prize fighter Floyd “Money” Mayweather won’t need any of his flashy jewels or fancy cars where he’s going. Today is the day the troubled boxer must turn himself in to authorities to begin serving a 90-day sentence for roughing up his children’s mother in front of them in September 2010.
Mayweather will turn 35 in prison on Feb. 24.
It’s cold on the cell block this time of the year — even in Las Vegas. And Mayweather won’t have his curvy model fiancee, Shantel Jackson, to keep him warm for the next 3 months.
The boxing champ was sentenced to serve 6 months on Dec. 21, but a Las Vegas judge suspended 3 months of his sentence and allowed him to remain out over the holidays. The judge also credited Floyd 3 days for time served.
Mayweather has until today (Jan. 6) to turn himself in at the prison — where Bubba awaits.
Update: According to TMZ.com, a judge ruled today that Floyd Mayweather Jr. won’t have to turn himself in to a Las Vegas jail until June 1, 2012 … so he can fight in Las Vegas on May 5th.
TMZ adds: “His attorney’s justification … Floyd’s a pro who brings in hundreds of millions in profits for the city of Las Vegas — and hey, thing’s get rescheduled all the time … no bigs.”
