Speaking from an afterparty, Diddy said the singer stole the show.

At the afterparty, hosted by the tag team of Diddy and “Hustle & Flow” actress Taraji P. Henson, everyone from a show producer to the cast of the soon-to-be-revived BET series “The Game,” as well as some of the night’s winners and presenters, had something to say about Brown’s emotional performance of “Man in the Mirror,” during which the singer fell to his knees crying, genuinely unable, it seemed, to sing the song. “You know who stole my heart tonight?” Henson asked. “Chris Brown!” answered Diddy, host Queen Latifah, BET personality Tigger and a group of others in near-unison.

Writing via Twitter, Fabolous said Brown gave a historic performance.

“Chris Brown jus single handledly bodied every MJ tribute to date. His dance swagger is almost exact to Michael’s.. Almost..,” he wrote late Sunday (June 27) night. (Fabolous’ Twitter)

Brown’s meltdown took place as “Man in the Mirror” began to play.

And while Todd Bridges showed up to give a shout-out to Gary Coleman (“I was even hearing [that phrase] in prison!”) it was Brown who was tasked with the expected yet still-surprising Michael Jackson tribute marking the first anniversary of the King of Pop’s death. Brown even started out in silhouette, making us squint at first to see who was donning the trademark fedora. Brown did justice to Jackson’s dance moves (as much as anyone could, that is) and his sweet timbre, but whether it was out of feeling for Jackson or introspection directed at his own past foibles, the tarnished 21-year-old choked up and never recovered when “Man in the Mirror” got going. (E! Online)

Recently, BET Vice President of Music Programming Stephen Hill spoke with SOHH and denied rumors that Brown was banned from last year’s show.

“The Chris Brown and Jay-Z rumors from last year’s awards show were so inaccurate that sometimes you just don’t respond to it because it’s just ludicrous. I can tell you for a fact that Jay-Z had nothing to do with keeping Chris Brown from the show. Only thing that Jay-Z said about Chris Brown was when we joked about the rumor of him keeping Chris from the show.” (SOHH Guest Star)

    • YOU DONT KNOW THE COURT SYSTEM OBVIOUSLY…HE STILL GOT A CHANCE..A SLIM ONE BUT TWITH THE FACTS IN HIS CASE HE GOT A BETTER CHANCE THAN MOST…FREE THE WAVE

  2. Based on that story i read in that newspaper a while back it appears as if Max got a case. I think he can be out by summer 2013.

    • sorry….he’s not getting out. I’m guessing he doesn’t have money to appeal up to the Supreme Court, which would take years and cost millions. He lost on appeal. What case do you think he has? The appeals court denied the appeal. Unless you know of some loophole the rest of the world doesn’t

    • Marc Saint Luc•24 minutes ago −+DeleteFlag as inappropriateGo back in your cell and get fucked in your ass nigga. The only coming out is your celly’s dick coming out yo ass. All you rappers claim to be making all this money but steady robbing people. Fuck outta here and die in jail nigga

  3. Go back in your cell and get fucked in your ass nigga. The only coming out is your celly’s dick coming out yo ass. All you rappers claim to be making all this money but steady robbing people. Fuck outta here and die in jail nigga.

    • YOUR AN IDIOT…FIRST OFF HE WAS APART OF THIS SCHEME BEFORE HE BLEW UP WITH THE MUSIC…SECOND OFF YOU HAVE TO BE ONE BITCH ASS NIGGA TO THINK EVERYONE ON JAIL GETS RAPED…JUST YOUR TYPE

    • You must have gotten your asshole busted in prison. Shut the fuck up. His ass will die in prison for robbing. Nigga lost his whole life because he was trying to steal from someone. All the gangraine and wavy shit over. Where all that rap money at he was flossing on the web? Dumb nigga.

    • NA NIGGA YOU SOUND LIKE A BITCH..”HE WAS STEALING FROM PEOPLE”…SHUT THE FUCK UP AND TAKE YA WHITE ASS BACK TO TINSLE TOWN WHERE NIGGAS DONT STEAL…YOU CAN LISTEN TO HIPHOP WHERE NIGGAS TALK ABOUT EVERY CRIME BUT WHEN NIGGAS ACTUALLY IT YOU GET YOUR PANTIES IN A BUNNCH YOU PUSSY…YEA HE IS IN THE BING FOR THE NEXT 30, BUT WHAT TYPE OF NIGGA THINKS THATS COOL….ONLY BITCH ASS NIGAS WHO NEVER BEN TO JAIL OR NONE OF THE BUT LISTEN TO GANGSTA RAP

    • I don’t know why you’re bragging about living in a ghetto aka if you went to grammar school a Hooverville, Max B will still be wavy, ya you guys are right, he’ll be really wavy eating that cold bologna sandwich behind those iron bars. It’s funny to me because people don’t see anything wrong with what he did… That’s what is fucked up. And as for Tinsel Town lol I’d rather live there and become an educated individual than struggle in a lifetime nightmare aka the hood. But hey, if I grew up in the slums and I had a life like that, I would do whatever it takes to make money.

  4. His “rapcareer” is over and basically his life too whenever he comes out in 2042. Nigga will be like 70 years old?
    Either way dude is fucked.

  5. All I got to Say is I Hope French using some of that New Money to get this nigga them OJ lawyers…They was like brothers, if not French is Suspect

  6. Wavy dude rushed this shyt…his conviction/sentencing was too fresh…he should have delayed the appeal process for at least two years and had investigators and lawyers putting that thing together properly…plus it would have gave him time to get in the law library and do his own homework….my homeboy gave back time on 3 separate murder beefs using this same strategy…he beat 3 life sentences by taking his time and not rushing into his appeals and by hitting that law library…the 3rd murder beef he caught he defended himself, got convicted, and gave the time back on an appeal….real tawk

  7. HE THINK HES HIGHTER THEN THE LAW ? LMAO HE GON STAY IN JAIL FOR GOOD TIME FOR ACTING LIKE A MONKEY

  8. Lmao he locked up won’t let him out. Oh well though you shouldn’t be robbing people..and he is delusional they ain’t never letting him out.
