In the entertainment industry, you would think there would be a common respect among fellow artists because everyone is pursuing a dream. They’re all practicing the same craft, so why not get along? While a common bond typically forms good relationships, it sometimes does the complete opposite when it comes to the entertainment industry. Celebrities take “friendly competition” to a different level.
Today, there are “Twitter beefs” where celebs use Twitter as an outlet. Tweeting each other directly or indirectly has become common. With that said, some of this behavior has resulted in celebrities not being seen in a good light. Oftentimes, these “cyber-space beefs” have to be removed--literally.
Recently, Chris Brown and Raz-B, a former member of B2K, Ciara and Rihanna, and everyone’s favorite, Lil Kim and Nicki Minaj have all duked it out via Twitter. Of the three, the two female rappers have elevated their beef beyond Twitter by publicly dissing each other, making “diss” records, and getting other people involved. How it originated is not the question. The real question is when will it end? All of this has left me thinking, where’s the respect?
