THE BROWN-OCEAN STANDOFF

Chris Brown clapped _ but didn’t stand _when Frank Ocean beat him for the urban contemporary album Grammy.

The standing ovation snub between the pair, who brawled last month over a parking space at a West Hollywood studio, was clearly captured in a screenshot posted on Twitter by the site BuzzFeed.

The image shows Nicole Kidman, Keith Urban, Jennifer Lopez, Adele and several others on their feet while Brown remains seated.

BuzzFeed’s photo of Brown’s diss was retweeted hundreds of times just a few minutes after it was posted.

Brown did stand after his girlfriend Rihanna performed.
