The hip-hop performer posted an offensive Tweet that included the F word after winning a Grammy award. The Tweet was deleted, but  Mashable captured a screenshot. Brown gloated over his new Grammy Award for Best R&B Album. Brown also performed at the Grammys -- twice. The selection of Brown as a performer was met with disapproval from some because of his past -- the singer assaulted ex-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009 on the weekend of that year’s Grammys. Artisan News reports... “...Chris Brown had a big night in front of a nationally televised audience...” “...setting off a firestorm of critics, pondering whether it was appropriate for Brown to perform at all.” Some fellow celebrities even Tweeted anti-Brown messages. Country singer Miranda Lambert said … “... Chris Brown twice? I don’t get it. He beat on a girl...” But the Grammys seem to be defending the choice to have Brown perform. According to the International Business Times , Recording Academy president Neil Portnow said... “... If we’re going to get in trying to personally evaluate artists in terms of their personal lives, that’s a slippery slope that we wouldn’t want to get into.” Brown seems to take the same stance. According to MTV , the singer also Tweeted … "‘Strange how we pick and choose who to hate! … Our society is full of rappers (which I listen to) who have sold drugs (poisoning). But yet we glorify them and imitate everything they do.’” But again, those reported Tweets have been deleted. Radar Online quotes a source close to Brown … “Brown didn’t Tweet that, someone does his postings to Twitter and when he saw that he ordered it taken down immediately.” But some aren’t buying that explanation. Idolator writes … “That would be easier to believe if posting profanity-ridden rants and then swiftly deleting them wasn’t typical behaviour for @chrisbrown.” And The Huffington Post asks if Brown has gone too far with these latest Tweets, noting that “RIP Chris Brown” is now a trending topic on Twitter -- and says he hasn’t learned from his mistakes. “Brown may have effectively shot himself in the foot … Brown continues to prove he's an immature and impulsive person -- perhaps dangerously impulsive, at times.”
