Several fans and supporters continue hailing Caitlyn (formerly Bruce) Jenner a hero for her stunning debut on the July (2015) cover issue of Vanity Fair magazine. But former Nickelodeon star Drake Bell (known for his rather controversial and insensitive tweets) angered thousands of Twitter followers after this rather transphobic post:

@DrakeBell: "Sorry... still calling you Bruce."

First constant Justin Bieber bashing, and now this?

Thankfully, the extremely insulting tweet was quickly deleted (via HollywoodLife.com). Still, the 28-year-old "B*tchcraft" singer shared this statement the SAME DAY that Jenner bravely revealed her "true self." And that angered lots of people...

@oceanouis: "drake bell's tweets and his straight white cisgender male mind makes me want to jump in front of a bus."

@bizzlesclifford: "drake bell deleted this tweet faster than he filed for bankruptcy."

@RachLWhitehurst: "drake bell is trash lmao get outta here timmy turner."

@honeyghosts: "my friend's band toured w @DrakeBell and I have half the nerve to write abt how much cocaine drake can do and what he does w teen fans."

@tharealversace: "I lost respect for drake bell."

@Onision: "Refuse to call Caitlyn by her name @DrakeBell ? Ok Drake, your name is now Donna. Enjoy being called what you don't identify as, Donna."

@banxl: "Me looking for Drake Bell's relevancy."

@huhmatt: "my childhood is ruined, drake bell, you were my childhood crush, now ur a transphobic piece of garbage."

@berniematthew: "@DrakeBell insensitive, idiotic, and ignorant are just such amazing qualities to have... #GTFO #NEXT."

@myaswagbek: "The Drake Bell Wikipedia page is poppin..."

@BoemMadi: "Drake Bell got more attention from that tweet then he did from his entire acting career lmao."

@ellxnna: "drake bell is salty af... taco bell over drake bell anytime."

@Rollercoascer: "@DrakeBell you're literally the biggest flop lol."

@ProbablyReese"'Omg drake bell is such a douche!!' FINALLY, AFTER ALL THIS TIME, PEOPLE ARE ON MY SIDE."

@NoelleEliza: "@DrakeBell still not calling you anything, because I'm still not talking about you, because I still don't care about you or your career."

And the furious responses continue pouring in online. #TeamCaitlyn definitely wins, this time!

Ego and career boost? Sorry, Bell - not so much...

But as most tweeters agree, Jenner should simply ignore the rude comment. Bell's relevancy in Hollywood is basically lost, anyway.

Just a few hours after erasing this viral tweet, Bell mused:

@DrakeBell: "I'm not dissing him! I just don't want to forget his legacy! He is the greatest athlete of all time! Chill out!"

Fans still wouldn't relent, so the "Found a Way" crooner seemingly gave-up:

@DrakeBell: "Adios."

But then immediately following that, said:

@DrakeBell: "Hola."

Apparently, he won't stay quiet for long.
