It truly is crazy that Chris Brown could've been the next Michael Jackson maybe.. He's so talented. Also I hope that Gaga will make the list again one day.

You don't understand anything about Chris' upbringing or the psychological trauma that he went through to bring him to violence - so don't make comments that infer that he is a woman beater when it was one isolated situation -that the other side has forgiven him for and they have moved on from. He is even open to educating the system and world about this - pretty much can say he has changed from that incident and he was in the wrong but that doesn't make him a beater it was one situation and he has learned from it.

if you beat a woman, you're a woman beater. 

If you bake a cake, you're a baker. 

 

Lol at you thinking men that beat women like this...

Rihanna-after-Chris-Brown-beat-her-in-20

means they only do it once. Domestic abuses are not isolated incidences. Please do your research before you come at me. thats an insult to all women who have been physically assaulted. 

If someone beat my mom, I wouldn't say, aww well his upbringing was hard, so i understand why he beat my mom.

Once a beater, always a beater

2010 :green: 

But I think Gaga was also the best during 2009. I mean, songs like Just Dance and Paparazzi are loved. If you don't know Poker Face than you've been living under a rock for 6 years :rip:

:wtf: Did you see what he did to her? Don't make excuses for his disgusting, inhumane behavior in 2008-09.

I was alive and a fan during this era and I have lost tremendous amount of respect for him- But in this society aren't we about second chances and learning from our mistakes?

Not when it involves taking the life of another human being or causing PHYSICAL HARM to another. How would you feel if that was your daughter because she is someones daughter, sister, and friend.
