CeeLo Green Tweets That It’s Only Rape If The Person Is Conscious, Then Deletes His Twitter Account

The 39-year-old took to Twitter to defend himself, replying to users’ comments on the case with a series of bizarre statements about rape.

“If someone is passed out they’re not even WITH you consciously,” he said, adding, “People who have really been raped REMEMBER!!!”

I used to be a fan of the American Dad episode that featured him as a guest but not anymore, he is a vile disgusting predator that deserves to be in prison.

Love Gnarls Barkley and I'll still listen to those albums but I won't be buying any more.

I do hope that the backlash he receives will help him realize he's wrong, but I fear it will only make him dig in further.

And he obviously realized it; hence the deleting of the account.

Just 'cause you got away with it doesn't mean it didn't happen.

It also doesn't make you an expert.

I get your point but this is WAY beyond someone saying something stupid on the internet.

This is a deranged predator who needs to be locked away for a long time IMO

I'm not disputing that at all. I'm saying he mat have deleted his account but he can't delete what he said - it's there forever. No hiding that.

if a couple of guys had sex with him when he was passed out. I wonder if he has considered putting himself in someone else's situation.
