Do blogs push the boundaries of human decency too far? Brandy seems to think so.
VH1’s newest reality star is sounding of on blogging meanies and the racist, sexist, and profane commentors who regularly follow celebrity snitch sites. In a blog of her own for VIBE.com this week, B-Rocka chats about the negativity that she receives on the blogs that seem to rip everything about the “Baby” crooner, from her looks (Baby hair and lacefronts just don’t mix…) to the tragic 2006 car incident that claimed the life of a young mother.

Why do you have to do that at the expense of somebody else? And then the hard part about it is you take a picture of me, I don’t get a piece of that at all. It’s just weird. I just think people should have respect. We have feelings…”
