Cee Lo Green: It is only rape if the victim is conscious [View all]

CeeLo Green has deleted his Twitter account after sharing his controversial rules on rape.

The singer – who recently pleaded no contest to charges that he gave a woman ecstasy without her consent in 2012 – appeared to be saying that it is only rape if the woman is conscious.

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

“When someone brakes on a home there is broken glass where is your plausible proof that anyone was raped,” he continued.

The woman had claimed that she had woken up next to Green not knowing what had happened, but due to insufficient evidence no rape charges were filed. Green’s lawyer said they had “consensual relations”.
