Witness Claims Chris Brown Rubbed In Eye Drops To Fake Tears At BET Awards!! Get the 411...


Whoa...so we all know that Chris Brown had some sort of an emotional breakdown at the last BET Awards. Some thought it was sincere & thought he should be forgiven for his past actions and others just straight out thought it was fake. Check out the poll results here.

Chris Brown started crying as he took to the stage to sing one of the King of Pop's hits Man in the Mirror.

However, a backstage source alleges that one of his bodyguards gave him some tear-inducing eye drops. WHOA...

His rep has denied the claim and said he 'was moved by the opportunity to pay tribute to his idol'.

But the source insists this is what happened and added:
'He rubbed it in and he started crying.'


What do YOU believe???

Chris Brown Cries Hysterical At The BET Awards! Do YOU Forgive Him Finally? WATCH IT HERE!

UPDATE:

Ok, so last night I was all emotional for Chris Brown, and don't get me wrong, I still feel it was an amazing performance. But was it too amazing? Like too put together, including the "crying" at the end. I really don't believe in coincidences anymore and the reason I put quotes on "crying" this time around is , after watching the performance over again, my thoughts have kind of changed.

I don't think I saw a tear, why leave Man in the Mirror till last? Why was THAT the only song he was going to sing?.... Did CB's team put him up to this? ....


I can hear it now...."Chris this will be the way to win the public back!"

ORRRR was I right the 1st time, saying that Chris has been set free?.....


One YouTube commenter wrote,
"I hate him even more since I realized the whole performance was more about him than it was for Michael Jackson."

So I think we may have to do a NEW poll here,

DO YOU THINK CHRIS BROWN'S TEARS WERE REAL??????










I'm STILL trying to figure this out myself.

I will say this though, I REALLLLLY hope everything was genuine and hope he can move forward, and I don't even mean with the public.....with HIMSELF.



ORIGINAL POST:



Now you knowwwww I have my own thoughts on the Chris Brown situation and how he has handled the after affects of all the drama. But I think the BET Awards may have been his turning point in his career.

When Jermaine Jackson came on stage at the BET Awards to introduce a tribute to his brother Michael Jackson, he didn't say the name of the performer. He just announced, "Here he is!" before Chris Brown appeared behind a screen on stage.

CB has been shut out of Michael Jackson tributes over the last year, having fallen out of favor with the public after his assault of Rihanna became public knowledge.

He danced and lip-synced along to several of Jackson's hits, but the real highlight of the performance came when it was time for Brown himself to sing Jackson's hit "Man in the Mirror." When he opened his mouth to sing the opening line, "I'm gonna make a change for once in my life," Chris couldn't get the words out, fighting back tears.

I'm fighting tears right now writing this, he touched me so much...I realllly think he may finally be freed of all his drama...it's like he was saved by the Lord tonight and I really mean that. Now, I'm not sure if I'm right or not, but I feel it in my heart, and I am very happy for him.

Was he weeping for MJ, or because the words hit a bit too close to home? Like I said, guessing it was a bit of both. Chris never managed to pull himself together, so he dropped the microphone and just sang along with the audience, tears streaming down his face.

A few minutes before hitting the stage, CB tweeted,
"BE NERVOUS FOR ME... im s***tin' a brick right now!!!!!"
I think that showing some raw human emotion might do some good for his tarnished public image... MAYBE.

According to the official BET Twitter, Jermaine Jackson thought that "C. Breezy's performance was Jacksonesque!"

Michael Jackson Tribute T.V. Guide [SET UR DVRS!]

I'm pretty sure you remember the day Michael Jackson died like it was yesterday. We were all glued to our TV's trying to get a confirmation on whether MJ had passed or not. Unfortunately we lost our "King of Pop" that day, June 25th, 2009.

Now, today marks the day to pay tribute and how do we choose which tributes to watch, well I got you covered below:

TV Guide Network: Gone Too Soon (Friday, June 25, 9-11:00 p.m.) Ian Halperin, New York Times’ No. 1 bestselling author of Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson, spent five years researching Jackson and declared in December 2008 that the King of Pop had only six months to live.

Diddy Plans BIG Tribute for Biggie!

Diddy will take it to Brooklyn to pay tribute and celebrate the life of Biggie Smalls. On Tuesday, March 9, the Mogul will be hosting a party at The Lab, a club in B.I.G.’s old Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood. This is the 13th anniversary of The Notorious B.I.G.’s death.

“We’re trying to make March 9th a national Hip-Hop holiday. It already is on the low…. It’s a big day. It’s a day to celebrate his life. It’s a day to celebrate the life of the man. We done did the movie, the records. It’s something that, I guess as a label we’re obsessed with: making sure people don’t forget about this man in a positive way. March 9 is Biggie Day… Bump Biggie all day, feel good and positive.”

So cool! We should make it a Hip Hop holiday! We are always celebrating anyhow. I seriously still get upset that BIG aint here anymore. He was like a flower that did not get to blossom.

Madonna & Janet Jackson Duet?


The rumor of the moment is that Madonna and Janet Jackson are teaming up to record a duet with one another. Apparently, the two bonded over dinner after the MTV Video Music Awards and came up with the idea to record a duet in honor of Janet's brother Michael Jackson.



Word is Madonna was very impressed with Janet's tribute to Michael and Janet was left in awe by Madonna's tearful speech.
