The Week's Best (And Worst) Celebrity Tweets: Mariah Carey, Chris Brown, Kanye and More

The Week's Best (And Worst) Celebrity Tweets: Mariah Carey, Chris Brown, Kanye and More

Adelle Platon Posted October 5, 2012
What a sight to see when Twitter's heavyweights go round for round on our timelines. Don't act like you weren't posted on your couch with popcorn in front of your digital screens.

This week seemed to deliver pay-per-view-worthy tweets surrounding Chris Brown's love triangle, and Nicki Minaj's duel with Mariah Carey. At least Kanye West took the high road...

Mariah Carey
Minutes after TMZ leaked the footage of her shouting bout with rapstress Nicki Minaj, Mimi posed a question to her followers...or maybe life in general.

"Why you so obsessed with me?" Nah, that's old Marshall Mathers beef. "Why is it so hard to say goodbye?" Meh, that's 'Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel' material. Or maybe "Why did I double up on security after Nicki went monster on me?" The world may never know.
Kanye West
Either 'Ye went fishing or he's taking a break from the Twittersphere. Makes sense given the Throne rapper doesn't even hold a phone. Maybe he needs an e-break to work on the rumored 'Cruel Winter' compilation so that it's actually released in the right season. The real question is who did he pay to sit and hit delete on all his classic Twitter rants?
Nicki Minaj
The executive producer of American Idol knew exactly what he was doing. Sure, televised singing competitions are in need of ratings but to pit two divas against each other, who used to be musical besties (see "Up Out My Face (Remix)")? That's foul. Now they're firing subliminal shots on Twitter before the season has even begun. Checks, please?
Chris Brown
Life isn't so easy Breezy. After revealing a three-minute real life Chris Brown rant on Vimeo, the "Up 2 You" singer chucked the deuces to his relationship with Karrueche (no remix this time) only to be seen with ex-lady Rihanna at Jay-Z's Barclays Center show. Karrueche actually issues a response, too... See next slide.
Karrueche Tran
This woman deserves props for attempting to husband the music industry's biggest playboy but even after Brown's alleged lip locking sessions with Nicole Scherzinger, Rihanna, Rihanna and oh, Rihanna, the chick proved she was ride-or-die by toughing it out. But even enough is enough sometimes.
Rihanna
Social media's HBIC took a break from calling Chris Brown "baby" in subliminal tweet-talk and took the time out to wish OKC Thunder star Kevin Durant happy born day after submitting a request for a tweet from the "Diamonds" singer.
