06.30-TIME TO FORGIVE CHRIS BROWN?

Has the time come to forgive Chris Brown for beating Rihanna? Chris has garnered some more positive attention in the media follwoing his tearful rendition of 'Man In The Mirror' during his tribute to Michael Jackson at the BET Awards. Now Michael's big brother Jermaine has spoken out saying that it is time to let Breezy live. Jermaine said, "He’s a human being like all others, we all make mistakes. What he did was wrong. I love Rihanna… I’m one of his biggest fans… We can’t condemn him because of what happened. We hope he learns from this," Jermaine continued, "He (Brown) deserves to perform because it’s healing for him. How can he learn from his mistakes if you don’t give him the chance? He needs that. I support him a thousand per cent; I’m not supporting what he did because it was wrong, but, at the same time, we have to give him a chance." Jermaine Jackson added that he was greatly moved by Brown’s tribute to brother Michael, "It was very emotional for me… It was just a spectacular moment." While people like a hate-figure and a scapegoat to point the finger at, perhaps it is time we all moved on - Rihanna has...

Yup, let's forgive him and MOVE ON.  Period.  It's still more to that night that we will never know...

The show marked one of the first times that Hudson has addressed the murders, which were perpetrated by her brother-in-law, William Balfour. At the 2009 Grammys she won an award for Best R&B album before thanking "my family in heaven, and those who are here today" and performed a moving rendition of 'You Pulled Me Through.' Speaking on the song, Jennifer said, "I was definitely thinking of my family when I was singing that song. I could hear my brother in my head, like, 'Jennifer, you need to kill this, you need to get up and do it.' I knew he would be disappointed if I didn't do it justice." Jennifer also said how giving birth to 11-month old David Jnr by fiancé David Otunga has helped her heal. She said how her son "reminds me of my nephew," adding that he "makes me feel like the most special person on Earth. I want him to get the same love and the same upbringing my mother gave us."
