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.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
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.

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

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?
Arabella
You know calling people a “douche,” which refers to women’s method for self-cleaning their genitalia, is really sexist. Please stop it, okay?
Randy
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.
Randy
@Arabella:
Isn’t douching supposed to be unhealthy for women?
Jay
Why does any one care about this no talent thug – someone will plug him one day anyway.
ewe
omg. where’s the outrage???
mick
@jay did you say no talent have u seen him dance and the only reason you call him a thug is because he black yall dont call charlie sheen one yall thought his career was over but just like his hit top 10 song look at him now GET A LIFE HATERS
christopher di spirito
“I have total respect for the gay community” — Chris Brown
A total douchebag.
ewe
Is he twelve yet?
Daniel Villarreal
@Arabella: How is calling someone a method for flushing out asses and vaginas sexist exactly? Men douche too, y’know.
Chitown Kev
@Ogre Magi:
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.

Stop being so dayum sensitive.

Odd comments for one on the DL
fredo777
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.
the crustybastard
@Ogre Magi:
Yes, but I preferred the sequel, Gay Niggas From Outer Space 2: Electric Boogaloo.
Truly
see all the love for Chris on justjared.com – his little fan whores could care less since they think gay is a choice – uneal.
Tony
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.
ewe
@Tony: speak for yourself. I know plenty of gay men who don’t even have to think about what you brought up because no one would be stupid enough to approach them.
fredo777
@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.
ewe
@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.
Philip
No more stories about that piece of shit, please.
Juanita
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.
ewe
@Juanita: Thanks for proving the point how wrong it is.
Kim
Where is the outrage when men call women” bitches”.
ewe
@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.
Tim
Where is the outrage when people say that’s ghetto?
Alex Sarmiento
I wish that Rihanna had beaten Chris Brown’s ass when she had the chance.
jojo18
I’m so tired of people on CB’s jock. Leave him alone.!!!
Maria
WHEN HE SAID YALL IS GAY, IT KINDA MEANT YALL STUPID FOR TELLIN THE PRESS, IT’S STREET SLANG AND I DONT THINK HE MEANT IT THE WAY EVERYONE TOOK IT.
the big one
@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!
David
Is anybody sick and tired of the gay community being so sensitive?
Spike
Beating down his so called GF and using the term gay niggas . . . this guy is so on the DL.
Daniel Villarreal
@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.
Real talk
If you don’t want to be called gay then don’t be gay!!
What is the name for someone who is gay? I think it’s gay, so get the hell off chris back
fredo777
@Real talk: If you don’t want to be called an idiot, don’t be an idiot.
Idiot.

Rihanna is almost as bad as Chris Brown. She’s never spoken out against homophobia in her home country of Barbados as far as I know.
Both Rihanna and Chris are shit.
Mike
Gay – another word for lame or uncool.
Doesn’t literally mean homosexual.
Why do you let some stranger affect you so deeply anyhow?
And this guy is a millionaire. He’s doing alright….
alan Balehead
he’s young..forgive him and let him evolve…

@Arabella: You know what’s misogynistic? Vaginal douching.

@Kim: Where’s the outrage when women call men “dicks”?
Adman
@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.
TheRealMannequinAdam
This is urban culture for you.
fredo777
@Adman: Specifically what “trash heap demographic” is that?
David Ehrenstein
@mick: A “no talent thug.” PRECISELY!
Nohting to see here. Nothing at all.
Juanita
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.
Jeffree
@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.
Don
I think the gays are just using this to dump on CB again. All you guys like to do it bettch and moan. If CB is this and that, has no talent. I hope there will be no blogs, stories etc written about him on this site from this day forward.
Jeffree
@Don: Do you think that what CB said is acceptable?
Don
Yes. He has a right to freedom of speech. When he use Ya’ll n***gas gay, I knew he meant You guys are stupid or silly for calling the cops. I wasn’t offended but I’am straight. Since when, did the word “gay” become a slur?
Jeffree
@Don: So, would it be ok if I said Y’all N****s Gay” to you or a friend of yours?
I wouldn’t say that to anyone, regardless, but it helps to know what the standards are. (this is my last question, i promise!)
David
@Jeffree: We are not talking about the n-word but the word gay. I’ve seen lots of gays use the n-word.
Adman
@fredo777: Kids from no parent households who hang out online and text each other all day while they hone their sociopathy to a fine pitch. Which trash heap demo did you think I meant?
fredo777
@Adman: That’s very specific. I didn’t know which demographic you were referring to as trash, which is why I asked for clarification.
Anonymous
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.
