Unfortunately, Twitter beef seems to be becoming the norm for celebs. Coming out of nowhere, Keke Palmer and “Bad Girl” Mehgan James are the latest two to exchange a few shady words on the social media platform.
The random Twitter war all started after Palmer tweeted she was binge watching season 9 of Bad Girls Club. Though James might now be better known for appearing on Basketball Wives LA, she got her reality show start on BGC back in 2012.
Binge watching BGC season 9 and Rima has been getting played like a clarinet. ?

A fan asked Palmer which Bad Girl was her favorite; shocker, it wasn’t James.
Ashley really. Meghan just too corny, her and Julie to me are so weak ? https://t.co/nDlr4M87iK

James, who admittedly only joined BGC to fight, never holds her tongue and responded to the tweet, calling Palmer a “hater.”
You sound like a hater ??? just saying ? https://t.co/P6my6i9kAW

Well, that clapback sparked Palmer to indirectly post a series of tweets about James.
Must be able to separate the difference between someone being entertaining and them being likable.

Everything that entertain you isn't good for you.

I'm so happy to be in the space in my life where I can accept that other ppl gonna always have their own feelings about me.

And understanding that half the folks that try to down play you are people that you would never be involved with anyway.

Nothing to feel bad about when a certain kind of people don't like you.

It's not a problem if you are an apple and they like oranges because there's a whole group of people that love apples!

The former Bad Girl then released several brutal clapbacks. She even claimed that “one of the several athletes” Palmer was sleeping with has “an incurable STD.” James later deleted those tweets, but not before they were screencapped by the internet.
You would think that A list celebs like miss keke would not have time , the strenuous days of reading scripts to even watch bgc ??

The current Scream Queens star took the Twitter beef to the next level by posting a video. Again, she never addressed James by name but she called out a “World Star classic trying to go off on me.”
“But the gag is, I like them overweight, bipolar, insecure, and insufferable. Holla at me, bitch!”
When the GAG IS, you like em' feisty ? #ChiTownsFinest #AintNoFreePromoBih #ChanelEverything #ChristianDior pic.twitter.com/PySCcKxk85

Palmer’s part of the Twitter beef ends with the video. However, James wasn’t going to let that slide either.

Unfortunately I dont have time RN to get into hair and make up & put on my flyest great gatsby themed dress to shade a stranger .

#kudos on being a talented actress and that's what you're doing now ACTING . You got real talent B , but you're STLL ugly ? #endSCENE ?
— Mehgan James (@MehganJames) December 12, 2016
So, yeah. That all happened. James also explained why she decided to go in on Palmer in the first place. And she actually had a semi-valid point.
@omgleil the question was … Who's ya fav. Not do you like Mehgan lol .
— Mehgan James (@MehganJames) December 12, 2016
It was strange for Palmer to single out two people she didn’t like, when the question was who her favorite bad girl of the season.
In any case, the two definitely took it too far and the situation was never that deep. Unfortunately, celebs are starting to feel the need to respond and defend any little bit of criticism they encounter on social media.
