Chris Brown Gets Sexuality Sensitive Amid Criticism of Tight Pants
CB fires back at the haters over his skinny jeans fashion on his Graffiti album cover
We’ve debated the whole tight jeans movement before. Clearly the younger members of the Nation lead by my main man Ca$h have drawn the line in the sand waving the flag for the form fitting fashion. As a member of the “Mature” school I’ve accepted the torch has been passed and am resigned to the fact that I just won’t understand.
But even some heads in their hip hop prime have been critical of the embattled Chris Brown‘s choice of dare I say leggings on his new album cover. The now suddenly sensitive CB fired back on his Twitter page. (Gotta love Twitter.)
mechanicalDummy: WHO CARES IF MY PANTS ARE FITTED. its called fashion. IM SO TIRED OF CLOSED MINDED PEOPLE. IM 100% COMFORTABLE WITH MY SEXUALITY. IM A GROWN MAN
mechanicalDummy: MY FASHION ISN’T LIMITED TO BAGGY AZZ JEANS AND FITTED CAPS.. i did that in 05. CMON SON. HATING IS SO LAME..
The comments were conveniently removed from his feed. What do you think? Does he have a point or has he taken the “fashion” too far. Better yet has the Rihanna situation just revealed him to be a bit too sensitive?
FILED IN Fashion, Need to Know
you can use fashion as an excuse when you look gay by accident
you cant*
Skinny jeans doesn’t equal gay to me. Skinny jeans equals UNCOMFORTABLE. I don’t give a damn about fashion if everytime I take a step my balls feel like they’ve been kicked.
so you’re saying you like ur women skinny just not ur pants…noted..lol
Juan I feel you, I don’t understand it either. Like The New Boys at BET Hip Hop awards, their pants were just too tight! I don’t think that is fashionable at all. Maybe the white boys can pull it off but black & hispanic men need to leave those tight jeans for the ladies.
Skinny jeans on men? Something’s wrong.
I agree. I don’t want to be on a date thinking that my man’s jeans are smaller than mine.
if he wanna dress like that, thats cool. im not. slim dudes can pull that off. Im 6’2″, 265. i cant do that. WONT do that.
sign of the times…
The young man has a right to wear whatever he wants, as long as it’s not offensive to anyone. PEACE!!!
I’m offended. lol.
Chris looks great. I don’t understand why so many of you are uncomfortable with a man being sexy – and make no mistake the dude looks hawt!!!
The look makes men uncomfortable because some of you are scared to do the same and in trying to mimic one another – see baggy pants – many of you are afraid to step up.
- And tight does not equal gay – grow up – gays don’t all wear tight pants just as many gay men aren’t flamers like many of you like to see us. What is scary for many of you is that many gay men look, act, dress and talk just as you do – and that’s a scary thought because some of you are afraid of “accusation by association or assimilation.”
So – keep your baggy pants – let Chris be great….
Get off the gay tip and ask yourself why you are really uncomfortable. Really….
I’m gonna keep it simple: If this dude was seen on the streets when we were in high school, he wouldve been herbed.
Why is CB wearing his little sister’s pants.
i don’t think they go well with hip Hop or R&B. And they don’t look good at all on him
“”Clearly the younger members of the Nation lead by my main man Ca$h have drawn the line in the sand waving the flag for the form fitting fashion. wow! free PUB!”" thanks btw tight clothes was hot back in the gap it just coming back oh well. i feel like the ones who bangin just secretly wish they could go get some 501′s their ACTUAL wiat size and rock ‘em…lol….oh i aint that young i’m just skinny. so my jeans gon me slim anyway…..
Tight pants or not, he still posed like a bitch. Didn’t he think that standing that way made him look more like feminine?
Why disrespect the women “posed like a Bitch”?
Is that your best?
i think he was trying to look futuristic…when i first saw this i wasn’t looking at the pants but the fact that those clob hopping jodeci boots are coming back…now those got on my nerves. leave those to the goths…PLEASE
seems like a tribute to Prince. The font of the title is very much like Purple Rain’s and Prince had an album called Graffiti Bridge. So maybe he’s going for the Prince look also.
i like it. its real pop-art ish.
never feeling the tight jeans myself but if other people like to look gay as fuck den lett’em i guess lol id rather stick to lettin the females rock out the tight jeans wit their big booty
you must be turning a blind eye to the dudes that do a pair of jeans – tight or baggy – much justice with the big asses – and they look good – and you know this. This doesn’t mean you’re gay – females are going to always show off their bodies and that’s great – so what up with a guy not being able to do the same?
Most dudes look bizarre with all the oversized everything and walking around holding up pants just to be cool – or worse – letting them hang down with a big ass poking out the top in boxers that are being eaten up by the big ass… come on…
What are we supposed to do with this information?
Bottom line – as i read the posts here – i’m offended by the small minded, homophobic, misogynistic comments here.
Chris looks great – an interesting concept and way out of the box that we try to put men in.
the fashion looks good. maybe some of you would have been more comfortable if he wore a pair of baggy pants to help you be more comfortable – but its so not about you nor is it about sensitivity or homosexuality.
Its about being fashion forward, comfortable in your own skin and for lack of a better description – different than most other artists out there.
which of them do you think would be brave (man) enough to pull this off?
- i would say not many because they are afraid of offending folks like yourself who may or may not buy the music because you think is makes you gay or something.
Evolve people…!!!
wow. i agree… i did try on some skinnys this weekend (Levis’ 510) my massive balls wouldn’t allow it…lol..
I think chris looks amazing. I have to say that im not a big fan of skinny jeans on boys but they look good on chris and the new boyz. Not all guys have to wear bagging pants because most of the time your can see their underwear and thats a big turn off. So let chris “rock the skinnyz” if he wants to he’s going to look great either way.
I was shocked never thought chris would wear something like that! Any who its so effin crazy cuz i never seen him luckily i had the same fitter like 1 week ago(i didnt copy him) but all of you are just insecure and are closed minded people who are scared and justified by the comments people will make of you. And like Mackia said only skinnie people were made for skinnies like me and chris. Ma boy keep doin what you do cuz they will always be people hating! Do you and fuck em
