Chris Brown Instagram Account Deleted Following Frank Ocean Brawl
After a brawl with singer Frank Ocean, Chris Brown deleted his Instagram account and disconnected himself from his 2 million followers.
On Monday, the "Don't Judge Me Singer" posted an image of what looked to be Jesus on a cross, paired with the caption, "Painting the way I feel today. Focus on what matters." However, Brown's Instagram page is currently a blank space.
Moments before Brown deleted the account, he thanked his fans for their love and supports, and redirected them to his official websites. Reports said the last images posted to the account were pictures of text messages to his followers.
"Elevate yourself above the negative and if it doesn't work, move on! I respect myself enough as well as my fans to wanna be great."
"For more information on Chris Brown, go to Mechanicaldummy.com or follow the Twitter account @chrisbrown ran by the team."
"But...social media takes away the essence of why we are even special or icons, so that that, I'm detaching myself from that world," Brown wrote.
This not the first time Brown detached himself from social media. In 2009, he shut down his Twitter account @mechanicaldummy after he got upset at Walmart for not selling his album "Graffitti." He reactivated it but on Nov. 26, he deleted his account after a nasty exchange with comedian Jenny Johnson. A week later, the account was reactivated.
While many celebrities chose to keep mum about the Brown/Ocean altercation, pop sensation Justin Bieber said everyone should focus on his talents.
"His music is really good. That's what they should focus on: the music," Bieber said about Brown.
