Chris Brown Finally Gets His MJ Tribute


In February of 2009 Brown and pop star Rihanna, his girlfriend at the time, got into an altercation and Brown would later be charged with battery (which he plead guilty to), ordered to conduct community service and placed on probation. During last night's 10th annual BET Awards Show, Chris Brown performed a tribute to the late, great Micheal Jackson. During part of the performance Brown broke down into tears and was unable to sing the lyrics to Jackson's classic song "Man in the Mirror". Later in the show when Brown accepted a "Fandamoniom" Award, Brown stated "I let you all down before, I won't do it again. I promise you." Up until last night's performance, Chris Brown has been mostly out of the spotlight while trying to navigate through his legal troubles and regain his footing as a singer and entertainer. Please comment on the following:

Does Chris Brown deserve a second chance as an entertainer? Why or why not?

  1. Yes i think Chris brown should get a second chance. Not because he did an awsome tribute to MJ (and beat his girlfriend) but because he can sing.

  6. Yes because he did apologize to his fans and to Rihanna. Chris Brown is still making good music and him and Rihanna are over it. I understand Chris Brown beat the mess out of her but he does deserves a second chance. I didn't like Chris Brown for a while because of it but people really need to let things go.... IT WAS A YEAR AGO!!!

  8. Of course Chris Brown deserves a second chance. I'm not going to say what he did was right or appropiate but everyone makes mistake and everyone cant hold dat agaist him for the rest of his career. For a man to out his hands on a women is wrong but I think Chris Brown is truely SORRY.Personly I dont like Rihanna and I think she pushed him and he just snapped, but i love CHRIS BRONW !

  9. I do think that chris brown should get another choice. He knows what he did wrong he knows he let us down and hes trying to fix his mistakes. If he doesn't get another chance then thats what happens and those are his other consequences and if he does get another chance then awesome because he is a good entertainer. But i hope he knows that even though he might get another chance we won't forget what he did. It's a part of history now....

  16. yessssssssss ! i think chris brown deserves a second chance because bobby brown beat whitney houston multiple times and everybody didnt think twice about giving him a second chance because he was a great artist. but in the same breath chris brown started young and began his career in the spotlight so yeah he may have hit rihanna but he still is a great artist !

  18. He does deserve a second chance because he seems like he is doing better and is getting help with his problems. He tries to do things for his community and make the world a better place. We all make mistakes and need second chances.

  21. Yes Chris Brown deserves a second chance. He shouldn't end his career because of that one little thing that happened a while ago. He's not a bad person he just made some mistakes, plus he's a really good performer.

  22. I believe that Chris does deserve a second chance. He's a very good entertainer,performer, and singer as well. he went through his time but people believe in redemption. I think he's proved worthy of trust again.

  23. Yes i think he does deserve a second chance because he apologized to his fans and he said he said he wont let his fans down again.

  24. Personally, I don't like Chris Brown. And I am a firm believer in second chances because like many girls LOVE Chris Brown, I love rockstars such as Billy Joe Armstrong & Gerard Way. They too, have had their troubling times, but not with the same thing. Drugs & alcohol, that can be rehabilitated. However, abuse isn't some substance you can detox out of your body...it's a hidden personality trait. And I for one, didn't feel the "heart felt" performance everyone else did.

  32. At Tyler: I don't believe that Rihanna deserved it. She did nothing wrong . There might be controversy but fact or evidence may not prove that.Even if you think she deserved it that doesn't excuse his previous behavior. Also regardless of weather it was his first time for abuse. However I do agree that he deserves a second chance.

  33. @ Drew- so are you saying that you dont believe he should have a second chance?

  35. DREWW..THE QUESTION WAS DO YHU THINK HE SHOULD GET A SECOND CHAANCEE AINT NOBDY ASKK YHU ALL THT LIKE REALLY IT IS A YES OR NO QUESTION AND QUESTINN WHOO IS BILLY JOE ARMSTRONGGG BUT YEAHH DONEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  36. @ Eric Carter So just because he's an "amazing" singer it makes it ok to beat someone?

    @ Brooke, again, I said I do believe in 2nd chances but not for that. It's like if you were Rihanna, would you forgive him if he beat you? That's like saying "Oh, he beat me & now I have mental scars for the rest of my life but since he said sorry & he's such a good singer, I'll forgive him."

  37. i think that chris brown should get a second chance chris brown is a great actor/singer and people should just give him a nother chance. i mean the past is the past everyone has done something in the past and regrets it so think of it if you were him and you wanted him to give you another chance you would feel the same way so yeah take a risk
