When you say stupid things, expect the consequences to be unbelievably NOT in your favour.
CeeLo Green dug himself into a bit of a grave with a series of incredibly inappropriate tweets regarding his recent sentence.
Just to backtrack: in July 2012, the Gnarls Barkley singer allegedly spiked his date with Ecstasy at a sushi restaurant. The woman woke up in bed with him the next day with no memory of the previous night. Last week, Green was sentenced to three years probation and 45 days of community service.
It seems, in an attempt to defend himself on Monday, Green took to twitter:
“If someone is passed out they’re not even WITH you consciously, so WITH Implies consent,” he wrote in a first tweet. “People who have really been raped REMEMBER!!!” he tweeted in a second comment.
Hold up. Does that even make sense?
Of course, he received extreme backlash from the public and fans alike. He took to Twitter to apologize:
“Let me 1st praise god for exoneration fairness & freedom! Secondly I sincerely apologize for my comments being taken so far out of context.” Then he added: “I only intended on a healthy exchange to help heal those who love me from the pain I had already caused from this. Please forgive me as it was your support that got me thru this to begin with. I’d never condone the harm of any women. Thank you.”
He has since deleted his account.
Stupid is as stupid does.
