22 March 2013 7:01 AM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
In case you missed it Thursday night (March 21), former child star Amanda Bynes made a rather interesting tweet about wanting musician Drake to murder her vagina.
That's not funny at all. It actually makes us really sad and concerned.
But what is funny are the responses the tweet sparked on Twitter, as it rocketed up what was trending on the social media website. Here are some of our favorite responses:
No, really. Just try to imagine what it's like to be so famous that other celebrities are openly begging for you to murder their ladyparts. -- @AdamSmoot
@adamsmoot I believe that is technically called "The Sinatra" -- @wisconsinrob
Aaaaaand countdown to Amanda Bynes claiming she was hacked in 5...4...3... -- @nottheqb
I want @Drake to make me some Totino's Pizza Rolls. I'm not violent. -- @AshleyBurns
[runs in room] Did... *gasp*... Di-*cough*.. Did Anyone Make An Amanda Bynes Busted Brackets Joke Yet? -- »
