CeeLo Green has deleted his entire Twitter account.

If you recall, Sunday night CeeLo made some pretty disturbing comments about rape and the media let him have it!

He basically said that women can only be rape victims if they’re conscious and compared it to not getting caught during a home invasion.

“When someone brakes on a home there is broken glass,” he wrote. “Where is your plausible proof anyone was raped?”

“Women who have really been raped REMEMBER!!!” he added.

“If someone is passed out they’re not even WITH you consciously! so WITH implies consent.”

The disturbing comments were made worse by the fact that CeeLo pleaded ‘no contest’ to furnishing ecstasy in connection with alleged sexual assault just a few days prior.

Not only that, but his new reality show The Good Life, was canceled by TBS. The show had six episodes, the last airing in June. According to a source, it was due to ‘low ratings’, but this scandal couldn’t have helped.

UPDATE:  Green’s Twitter account was restored with all of the offending tweets removed. He had about 2 million followers yesterday, but currently sits around 178,000.
