LONDON - Jermaine Jackson was touched by Chris Brown’s tribute to his brother Michael Jackson at the BET Awards and he now wants R and B star’s critics to forgive him for beating up Rihanna.
The singer broke down during a rendition of Jackson’s ‘Man in the Mirror’ at the BET Awards, which prompted Jermaine Jackson to stand up for, the young star backstage.
“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,” the Daily Express quoted him as saying in TV news show Extra.
“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,” he added.
And Jackson even admitted that he was greatly moved by Brown’s tribute to his late sibling, “It was very emotional for me… It was just a spectacular moment.” (ANI)
