Chris Brown, he of the infamous Rihanna beating and occasional hip-hop album, got into a heated (but short-lived) feud with writer/comedian Jenny Johnson on Twitter. Johnson started it with a quick-witted reply to one of Breezy's tweets.

Things escalated from there.

Brown ended the feud, along with Twitter account, on Sunday night. He closed the account with a tweet that said "Just ask Rihanna if she mad??????" It reportedly received 16,000 retweets in half an hour.

Johnson has long been a critic of Brown, although presumably remained unknown to the singer until this weekend. In 2011, Johnson wrote an article for Grantland where she criticized Brown for the 2009 assault as well as his temper tantrum on the set of "Good Morning America." She writes:

CHRIS BROWN: This f--king guy. I remember a time when Chris Brown was this fresh-faced young man, dating pop star Rihanna, dancing with Mike Myers during the opening of the MTV awards and we all enjoyed him. Then BOOM! Word gets out he was arrested for domestic violence. Was it a misunderstanding? Could this be? Oh ... it be. Chris Brown beat the s--t out of Rihanna, resulting in multiple cuts and bruises, a busted lip, and facial swelling. Who is this guy? He is clearly not the boy next door, he's not a wholesome young man, he's actually a violent criminal. As time passes by, we see the real Chris Brown - a guy full of rage and prone to violent outbursts.

 

Following a Good Morning America interview with Robin Roberts, Brown became so enraged that he went back into the dressing room and hurled a chair at a window. He then took his shirt off (showcasing his tattoos, which appear to form an Affliction T-shirt) and stormed out of the building. Months later he shouts homophobic slurs at a bouncer in a nightclub, then pisses off his neighbors by playing his music too loud and parking his collection of luxury cars in handicap parking spaces. No, you're right, Team Breezy, Chris Brown is a national treasure. If I take a verbal shot at Chris Brown via my Twitter page, I know the rest of the day will be filled with Team Breezy @ replies. I have had some real winners reply to me. One evening in particular, Chris Brown himself even replied to me. That was fun. Of the thousands (yes, thousands) of replies from members of Team Breezy, nothing made me happier than being called an "asswhole" by a young Chris Brown fan living in Detroit. It's sad that Chris Brown's legacy will always be him beating up his girlfriend and his temper, then his music. I won't take away from the fact that he is a talented performer, but the only place he should be performing is in a jail cell.

 

Brown had 11.6 million Twitter followers. By contrast, Johnson has 332,705 (though no word on how many of those came recently due to the Chris Brown feud).

Do you think Breezy should've left Twitter for good? Will he be back? Tell us in the comments section below!
