Chris Brown Calls Out Ruffles Once More After All-Star Game Controversy
In his initial post shared to his Story, the âLoyalâ singer claimed that the NBA had removed him from the roster due to certain sponsors taking issue with his participation. Brown mentioned Ruffles as one of the firms who allegedly didnât want him involved.
Thatâs when the company issued a statement asserting that they donât call the shots regarding which players get to play and who donât.
But never one to back down, Brown stood on business as he addressed the situation again.
âI guess yall trynna save face now!â He wrote. âStand on business. Donât try to make it look like Iâm trippin. You and the NBA representatives know exactly what yall are doin!â
Brown continued by mentioning how he doesnât âchase cloutâ and that there was no reason for him to make up a lie about the company. He believes that the only reason why Ruffles spoke out to clear their name was due to the backlash they received from Brownâs fans.
âThe only reason they responded is because of all the team Breezy fans flooding they sh**,â he continued.
âStop f*****g playing wit me! See how fake this s**t is⊠cowards. Yâall know damn well I ainât lying because I never been on this type of time. These b*****s Tryna save face!â

Ruffles Said It Was Not At Fault For Chrisâ Removal From The Game
Shortly after the Grammy winner spoke out about being left out of the NBA All-Star Celebrity game, Ruffles released a statement pertaining to the matter.
âRuffles sponsored last nightâs NBA All-Star Celebrity Game, however we did not have any involvement in, nor visibility to, any player decisions or celebrity invite discussions,â they said.
Brown claimed in his initial Story post that a representative had contacted him to participate in the basketball game.
Brown disclosed his sports gear, date, time, and location in the email he shared on his IG, noting that they approached him to take part first.
However, on the event day, things suddenly changed when the NBA called the Virginia native, formally informing him that heâd been removed from the team.
âI was asked by the NBA to play in the All-Star Game this year! Only for them to call later and say I couldnât do it because of their sponsors like Ruffle,â he wrote. âAt this point, Iâm sick of bothering me and Iâm tired of living in the f-cking past.â
