Just in case you thought the man who beat the shit out of Rihanna had suddenly become not-a-douche, worry not. Chris Brown is still in full-on douche mode and there’s video to prove it.
While speaking with a parking meter attendant on Tuesday, Brown noticed paparazzi photographing him and said “Ya’ll niggas is weak! Did ya’ll call them to try and film me? Ya’ll niggas gay.”
Then the HRC chimed in:
“Invoking words meant to demean gay Americans is just plain unacceptable. Chris Brown should know better. He irresponsibly neglected to recognize the impact of his words and the unacceptable message that it sends to couple the word gay with negative actions.”
Brown then cyber-apologized on Twitter by tweeting, “I have total respect for Gay community and my intention was not to insult anyone in it #REALSHIT.”
It is real shit alright. Paparazzi definitely suck donkey balls, but why use nigga and gay to insult them? Does he even realize how that language works against him or does he have so much money that he doesn’t even care?
In other creepy, WTF news, Rihanna deleted a tweet that said, “I admit, I provoked Chris to hit me. It was not entirely his fault. #ImSORRY.”
Some days on the blogosphere seem pretty surreal.
What’s remarkable about Chris Brown is the number of people — mostly young women, who defend him from his critics.
It reminds me of the people on Queerty who defend Elizabeth Hasselbeck from her critics.
In any case, can we now admit for the last time that Chris Brown is a vile, untalented, violent piece of shit not worthy of adulation?

Isn’t the use of the word “nigga” by many African-Americans not meant as a racial slur but a term almost akin to “dude” or “guy” from their perspective? I hate the term but I’m not sure why his use of “nigga” is any different than what one would hear as part of everyday conversation amongst some African-Americans.

“I have total respect for the gay community” — Chris Brown
A total douchebag.

@Arabella: How is calling someone a method for flushing out asses and vaginas sexist exactly? Men douche too, y’know.

Yes.

I’m glad that you said “some African Americans” because the use of “nigga” as a term of endearment is not acknowledged by many black people. I’m one of those black people.

He kills me with these type of comments, then always followed up with “oh, but don’t take offense because I love my gay fans. i just like calling my enemies gay as a convenient insult, but it doesn’t mean i don’t like you gays.”
Done with him.

Yes, but I preferred the sequel, Gay Niggas From Outer Space 2: Electric Boogaloo.

I’m sure I’ll get a beatdown for this but..I just don’t find that offensive. It seems like gays are becoming overly sensitive pussies. Since we gays are such weak sissies and unable to defend ourselves, if you as much as touch us, we instanly scream hatecrime and if you use any term in any way deemed negative by the “Gay Community”, it’s hate speech. The circumstances or intent never seem to matter. I just can’t help but think our constant overreactions are doing a diservice to our movement. We really need to man up.

@Tony: Nope. This isn’t a matter of hyper-sensitivity among gays as much as it is a matter of basic respect. No matter how much you send out lovey-dovey “i love the gays” messages, so readily turning to gay as an insult belies your pro-gay chatter. I will say, however, that I don’t agree with the sentiment of posters claiming that Brown is not talented. He’s a talented dick, but a dick nonetheless.

@Tony: fyi: two gay men together is, has been and always will be much more masculine than one man and one woman hence; societys flipped out fears aimed at homosexual men. I purposely left out lesbian women because homophobes routinely discount them as invisible since they can’t figure out what they possibly can do sexually. You know, all the bullshit about the importance of the penis and all.

Two wrong don’t make a right. The writer/DANIEL VILLARREAL calling CB a douche meant: “That’s so stupid, that’s so silly, that’s so dumb. CB calling the Paparazzi gay niggas meant: “That’s so stupid, that’s so silly, that’s so dumb. I think this blog is gay meant: “That’s so stupid, that’s so silly, that’s so dumb.

@Juanita: I am referring to your acceptance that the word “gay” is interpreted by so many as stupid, silly and dumb. That is indeed wrong, misinformed and so is that little shit chris brown. But everyone already knows that cause he goes around hitting girls so manners from him are not expected. No surprise here. The real point is that no one did anything to justify what he said. It would be different if someone did which sometimes does occur.

I wish that Rihanna had beaten Chris Brown’s ass when she had the chance.

@Maria: And that’s the problem. You want to call us Gay. And at the same time use Gay = weak, stupid, girly, insulting another, and still want to call us gay. No had he said bitches, freaks, cunts, who would have felt insulted? Oh he was just saying street for fools, ass holes, idiots. Call it like you see it. We are just seeing how he is behind close doors. Zebras can’t change their stripes!

@Juanita: No. I meant that I consider Chris Brown the equivalent of anal flushing. He’s gone beyond “silly and stupid” into gross and reprehensible. Time to flush him.

he’s young..forgive him and let him evolve…

@Tony: “The circumstances or intent never seem to matter. I just can’t help but think our constant overreactions are doing a diservice to our movement. We really need to man up.”
This incessant Humpty Dumpty defense of trashy straight people in the media for throwing around insults is very relevant to our community. Words don’t mean what Chris Brown or any one person says they mean, they mean something real. They produce results that are real, and consequences that can’t be contained by the idiots who think they define speech.
If a man child like Chris Brown can swagger around the world and it’s media representing manhood, maybe we gays show our true role in the larger community by calling him out on his bullshit. If that little boy is a man, what kind of queer does that make me for not noticing he’s just an insecure child selling false bravado to the same trash heap demographic he came from? I like to think I know what a man is, I’ve admired men all my life. So believe me, Chris Brown is no man.
Why does “gay” even have to come up from him and his cohort in the first place? Because, they can’e educate themselves, their handling of themselves proves that, so unfortunately the task falls to us.

@mick: A “no talent thug.” PRECISELY!
Nohting to see here. Nothing at all.

See. That’s why this debate never goes anywhere. People start talking about race, use racial slurs, racial jokes, insults, being mean spirit, name calling etc and than start trashing the black community. The point I was trying to make the word “gay” come to have so many different meanings, how can we regulate and enforce how the word is used? The word “gay” doesn’t just belong to the gay community. At one time, the word gay meant happy. Many of you remember the days when “bad” meant good and “phat” was not an insult to your personal size.

@Juanita: I agree that people should not use racial slurs or incendiary language about etnicity, gender, sexual orientation or class.
Chris Brown shouldn’t utilize the N word or the F word; and no one should use those terms to refer to him.
Thanks for the clarification.

I think I am more shocked at some of the comments here than at what CB said. I have absolutely no respect for CB. There is no way I will ever support him in any way.
WOW!Hate is hate. Any idiot can say hurtful things including the gay community.

Wasn’t there a movie called “Gay Niggas From Outer Space”?
