Chris Brown Claps Back at Anti-Gay Instagram Comments
READ TIME: 1 MIN.
R&B singer Chris Brown responded to Instagram followers who left nasty anti-gay comments on a photo of himself and Balmain creative director Olivier Rousteing, gossip site Hollywood Life points out.
"Fucking faggy," one commenter wrote. Others suggested the two were in a same-sex relationship.
Though Brown deleted the post, he did lash out against the people spewing anti-gay rhetoric on his account.
"The crazy thing is that y'all used to call me homophobic... Now y'all calling me gay???? RESPECT IS RESPECT. WHO STILL HATES PEOPLE FOR THEIR DIFFERENCES OR PREFERENCES??? Grow up. People are abundantly simple-minded," the "Kiss Kiss" hitmaker reportedly wrote in the now-deleted post.
Rapper The Game also chimed in, writing:
"Lol.. People kill me homie!!! Because two successful people take a quick photo opp together & one of them is gay/or not that means the other person is gay too!!! This guy is the head of BALMAIN... Most of you n***** ain't even employee of the month at wing stop, uncomfortable in your own skin using HATE to hide behind your own insecurities... & everybody know this n**** Chris ain't gay & all you n***** listen to his music while yo broke ass ridin' shotgun in yo girl car so [cut] the bulls**t & let people live!"
Though he took down the snap, Brown posted another pic of himself and Rousteing. Unsurprisingly, his followers are still debating his sexuality and whether he's in a relationship with the fashion designer.
Twitter account @BallerAlert has a screen shot of the deleted post, which you can check out below.
