I hate to say I told you so…
According to US magazine, convicted woman beater Chris Brown used eye drops immediately before he took to the stage during the 2010 BET Awards to perform a teary-eyed tribute to Michael Jackson.
Brown’s tears failed to convince his critics in the mainstream media, which is who he needs in his back pocket if he hopes to mount a comeback.
Crocodile tears?
Chris Brown caused a lot of chatter at the BET Awards Sunday when he broke down in tears during a Michael Jackson tribute.
An insider tells UsMagazine.com the crying was fake.
Before he took the stage to belt out “Man in the Mirror,” a backstage source tells Us one of Brown’s bodyguards gave the singer, 21, tear-inducing eye drops.
Brown’s rep denies it, telling Us that this account is “completely untrue.” But the witness says Brown definitely used drops.
The Stans who think Brown made a comeback after his “triumphant” BET Awards PR stunt are the same ones who thought he was never gone in the first place.
