In a fiery outburst on social media, Chris Brown has taken aim at a Brazilian man who he claims is impersonating him.
Chris Brown took to Instagram on Thursday, calling out user Tigomgl, whose account is filled with images and videos showcasing his uncanny resemblance to the famous R&B singer. Brown didn’t mince words, labeling the impersonation ‘lame’ and suggesting the man ‘looks like he’s missing a chromosome.’ He continued, ‘BE YOU MY N-GGA… YOU COULD NEVER BE ME! SO STOP IT BEFORE I SLAP DA SHIT OUT YOU.’
This isn’t just a case of mistaken identity; Tigomgl, whose real name is Tigo Fariah, has not only been posting comedy videos and photoshoots but has also spoofed some of Chris Brown’s most memorable moments. One clip, for example, shows him reenacting Brown’s recent concert mishap where he was suspended in the air for several minutes. Another photo is clearly inspired by Brown’s ‘X’ album cover.
The saga of Chris Brown lookalikes is not a new phenomenon. Back in 2022, while vacationing in Croatia, rapper Fabolous encountered a man who he swore was Brown’s twin. The Croatian doppelgänger sported similar clothing and tattoos and even mimicked Breezy’s dance moves, much to Fabolous’s amusement. ‘Am I high or is this Chris Brown?’ Fabolous captioned his Instagram Story, capturing the encounter.
In other Chris Brown-related news, his meet and greets have also been under the spotlight recently. A viral post claimed that Brown refunded a woman on crutches her $1,111 meet and greet fee and gave her an extra $10,000. However, the woman in question quickly debunked the story in a video, saying she paid for her ticket and worked overtime to afford it. She expressed frustration over the exploitation of her image and disability for internet clout. ‘What I’m not okay with is strangers on the internet using my face and spreading misinformation,’ she clarified.
Chris Brown’s latest social media outburst and the ongoing stories of his lookalikes continue to stir the pot, proving that even celebrities can’t escape the drama of imposters and viral rumors.
