Chris Brown's mother, Joyce Hawkins, is absolutely livid about her son's post-Grammy Twitter account controversy, Breaking Celebrity News is exclusively reporting.
As previously reported, the R&B singer's official Twitter feed lashed out at critics who had slammed the Grammys for honoring him during Sunday's awards show, and had bitter words for those bashing him.
It was only three years ago that Brown pleaded no contest to a felony battery charge for beating then-girlfriend Rihanna at a pre-Grammy party.
"HATE ALL U WANT BECUZ I GOT A GRAMMY Now! That's the ultimate F**K OFF!" The tweets from Brown's account said at the height of the rampage.
The Tweets have since been removed, and a source close to the singer tells Breaking Celebrity News: "Brown didn't Tweet that, someone does his postings to Twitter and when he saw that he ordered it taken down immediately."
Brown was bashed by many celebrities following his Grammys extravaganza -- Country singer Miranda Lambert tweeted during the ceremony: " I don't get it. He beat on a girl...," adding, “Not cool that we act like that didn't happen."
While Michelle Branch wrote: “Trying not to go off on a rant but...Chris Brown...*bites tongue* have we forgiven him?”
Meanwhile, “Joyce is absolutely livid that those vile words and rants were posted on Chris' Twitter page. She isn't buying his excuse that he didn't post it and she has told him that it is his Twitter page, and only he should be posting to it, period,
