Chris Brown’s Instagram Rant Reportedly Fake

Reps for the singer say the latest social media outburst is a hoax.

Chris Brown’s Instagram activity is in the news again today after an in-depth rant voicing frustrations with the constant negative media coverage of his life.

"I’m wise I can handle the hate but enough is enough yo!!," exclaimed the singer on his Instagram account, which he made private last week.

In the post, the R&B singer expresses adoration for his fans and vents about his continued media scrutiny. Explaining his everyday reality, he states, "I’m tired. Ya’ll just don't understand I've been going through this s--t since I was 19 years old. You [can't] sit here and tell me to calm down. When am I gonna get a positive outcome out of anything I do?"

Chris Brown’s legal issues, including a recent studio brawl with singer Frank Ocean, seem to keep piling up. Now accusations have surfaced that Brown lied about serving community service as part of his probation agreement for the 2009 assault of Rihanna. The pressure is getting to be too much for the young star who stated in the post, "A day in my shoes is a day in hell, believe it or not!"

And while this latest rant is not unusual for the troubled singer, TMZ reports that a rep from Brown’s camp issued a statement, claiming that the post was written by an imposter. Meanwhile, his "friend" Rihanna was right by his side leaving a recording studio in Los Angeles at 4:30 a.m.

A hearing for Brown’s community service matter is being held today in L.A. County Court. Stay tuned as this story continues to develop.
