Simpson Watch

Okies, if you missed the furor, you can go back to the article before this. Right, so after Perez Hilton Tweeted the message that may very well be the nail on his online-reputation coffin, outraged celebrities rushed to defend Michael Jackson and criticize Perez for his harsh statements.

But what shocked me was that Perez did a total 180 degree do over and erased his previous statements, and replaced it with, “To the paparazzi and mainstream media, PLEASE give the Jackson family space. Please. We DO NOT need to see pictures or videos of them now!”

Wow. Talk about recanting change of heart. I really don’t think that another celeb had a change of heart as quickly as Perez did. But, the damage had already be done. Here are a few Tweets that I was privileged enough to read that I would also like to share with you:

Pete Wentz: “PerezHilton u can’t make ur life tearing someone apart, who is a human being, and then flip on a dime and say respect and mourn him.”

Pete Wentz: “essentially that’s what you do. Recanting after someone passes doesn’t mean shit in my book. I have no beef. But mj was a legend.”

To which Perez retorted with; I’m not recanting. He was FAR from a perfect person. EVERYONE can acknowledge that.

To which a few more celebrities got outraged over:

Ash Simpson-Wentz: perezhilton - wouldn’t it be nice to live in a judgment free world. Life is short. I know u got a heart there somewhere. Decide what side ur on.

John Mayer, also in a long-time Tweeter fight with Perez Hilton also chimed in, taking the couple’s side.

Perez then replied with:

Perez Hilton: “You and Ashlee and John must really think I’m a monster. I’m not trying to change your opinions. Nor do I care to. But if someone dies, I’m not gonna fucking celebrate that! Even ‘monsters’ have feelings.”

Pete Wentz: “so ur saying u don’t know him as a person but say he was far from a perfect person. That’s the disconnect I’m talking about,”

Perez Hilton: “He WAS. This man was accused of being inappropriate with children MULTIPLE times!”

Oh Perez, you should’ve just said “sorry” and then stopped Tweeting on that day all together to not add more fuel to the fire. Whose side are you on in this Tweeter War?
