Karrueche Tran is sounding off after being referred to as Chris Brown's "side chick."

Tran, the 26-year-old model who is famously known for dating the 25-year-old singer Brown, became his girlfriend after the entertainer broke up with famed singer Rihanna. After he famously dated both women at the same time and publicly admitted it, VH1 referred to Tran as a music industry "side chick."

Now, the model is speaking out about the label that she believes to be embarrassing.

"When no one understands you … they misinterpret you … judge you … label you … this is embarrassing to see, but I can do nothing but laugh because at the end of the day you can say whatever you want about me," Tran wrote on Instagram. "Label me however you please … Your words do not define who I am. I'm happy with myself … Flaws..wrong choices..mistakes and all and that's all that matters."

While Tran insists she does not usually address all of the negativity aimed at her, she explained her reasoning for doing so.

"I usually don't speak up on (expletive) like this but whatever. I have family that has to see (expletive) like this," she wrote on Instagram. "I don't even think we're all on the same page as to what a 'side chick' really is.. Either way."

Tran recently celebrated her birthday and took to Instagram to share photographs of her celebrating with friends. However, some fans and blogs noticed that Tran was sporting a ring on her wedding ring finger.

Earlier this month, sources reportedly told HollywoodLife.com that Brown had plans to propose to Tran when he is released from jail.

"I don't know if that's him being lonely in jail but that's what he tells her. He calls her his wifey and tells her all the time that she's perfect wife material," the source reportedly revealed to HollywoodLife.com. "He knows Kae is incredibly loyal and has literally put her life on hold to hold him down in jail. She's taken care of just about everything in his house."
