Beyonce's Previously Unreleased "Jealous" Remix With Chris Brown Surfaces

Beyonce collaborated with Chris Brown? Umm not cool, Queen B. We thought you were a "feminist"!
On Thursday, a previously unreleased remix of Beyonce's song "Jealous," which features a collaboration with Brown, surfaced on the Internet. The remix is believed to have been recorded for the sultry singer's 2014 album, Platinum Edition, but failed to appear on the record.
Brown addressed the collab on his Twitter when he tweeted a confirmation (and then subsequently deleted the tweet) on Friday morning, "I did the jealous remix some months ago for the Beyoncé collaboration album but it was never used. Glad you guys get to hear it."
Brown might be glad people got to hear it -- but Beyonce fans certainly aren't! The release has sparked outrage on the web due to Beyonce's self-proclaimed "feminist" status and Brown's admission of beating ex girlfriend Rihanna. It goes without saying that staunch Bey supporters are disheartened to see the pro-woman songstress work on music with a man who plead guilty to the felony assault of his girlfriend.
We are glad that ultimately the 33-year-old singer decided not to put this version of "Jealous" on the record, but we are disappointed that the pairing happened at all ...
Beyonce's camp has not released or promoted the song and as per usual has kept mum on the controversy. Yeah if we were Beyonce's people, we wouldn't want to talk about being pals with Chris Brown either ...
