Chris Brown has deleted his Twitter account again, E! Online reports, this time after a nasty exchange yesterday with comedy writer Jenny Johnson.

The back-and-forth began when Brown tweeted, "I look old as fuck! I'm only 23 . . .," and Johnson replied, "I know! Being a worthless piece of shit can really age a person." Johnson has been a persistent critic of Brown's on Twitter since he was arrested in February 2009 for assaulting then-girlfriend Rihanna and, in Johnson's view, not showing remorse. 

This time, Brown responded, tweeting vulgar insults that included calling Johnson a "hoe" and suggesting she perform oral sex on him. Johnson corrected his spelling during their exchange, and tweeted a link to a story about Brown's 2009 arrest.

According to Celebrity Tweet, Brown signed off after posting, "To teambreezy . . . Know that I'm not upset. Just felt like entertaining the ignorance. These bitches crazy . . . Further proved my point of how immature society is. #CarpeDiem."

Johnson's final tweet on the subject read, "According to Team Breezy, if you have a difference of opinion with someone, 'eating a dick' is the cure for any and all problems. #Knowledge."

Brown previously shut down his Twitter account in December 2009 after ranting about retailers he thought had refused to carry his album, Graffiti.

“Help Me”

Joni Mitchell | 1974

Joni Mitchell wrote and recorded this song for her album Court and Spark, but she had to switch from her regular band to make the song sound exactly the way she wanted. "I had attempted to play my music with rock & roll players," she told Rolling Stone. "They’d laugh, 'Awww, isn't that cute? She's trying to teach us how to play.'" Mitchell switched to a jazz band, Tom Scott’s L.A. Express, and scored the biggest hit of her career in the process.
