It seems that nobody can say anything on Twitter these days without either being confronted about it or threatened because of it.

The latest to reveal how what she wrote on the social media site came back to bite her is chart-topping singer P!nk.

She has revealed that she received death threats from Chris Brown’s fans after she made a joke about him.

Earlier this year the ‘So What’ songstress tweeted about Brown’s performance at the 2012 Billboard Music Awards.

She wrote: ‘One day if I lipsync, I hope I do it as well as him.’ But apparently that’s not where things ended.

P!nk recently told News.com.au that she received quite a nasty backlash from Brown’s fans following the remark.

Fans of Chris Brown clearly didn’t appreciate P!nk’s ‘joke.’

‘The internet has created monsters,’ she explained before continuing: ‘There are so many haters in the world, so many miserable people. It was a joke. It wasn’t even meant like, ‘I hate Chris Brown.’ Twitter brings out the best and worst in people – myself included.’

She also said: ‘I got death threats for days. My favourite was, ‘I will snatch you within an inch of your life.’ I don’t know how that works exactly, but whatever you want.’

Who knew that one little sentence could create such an impact?
