Chris Brown has taken shots at Ruffles as he continues to speak on his exclusion from the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game. "@Ruffles [cap emoji x5]. I guess y'all tryna save face now. STAND ON BUSINESS. Don't try to make it look like I'm trippin. YOU AND THE NBA representatives know exactly what y'all doin!" Brown wrote on Instagram. Breezy was speaking out after Ruffles issued a statement stating that they were merely the sponsor of the event and had no say in the selection of participants. The brand then took to the comments of The Shade Room. "Wasn’t us, we found out about it the same time y’all did🤷♂️," the brand wrote in response to the outlet's reporting of their statement.
Brown claimed earlier this week that he had been uninvited from participation in the Celebrity Game. "I was asked by the NBA to play in the All-Star Game this year! Only for them to call later and say I couldn't do it because of their sponsors like Ruffles. At this point, I'm sick of bothering me and I'm tired of living in the f-cking past," Brown wrote on Instagram. Furthermore, Brown claimed that after uninviting him, the NBA still asked him to sit courtside at the game. Brown posted an initial invitation from the league to appear at the game. However, he did not provide evidence of the league uninviting him.
