Last night's "Chris Brown" shenanigans at BET!

Ok, so Chris Brown's star was a-risin' when he jumped into the spotlight. But after he beat the shit out of his then girlfriend, who happened to be just a BIT more famous than he, the dude was over. And that is kinda where's he stayed, barring his formal public "apology" that sounded like he'd coached with a BAD acting teacher who camps out outside of the bus station with a "Learn to Act" sign...love the mango suit...

Then, last night he has his "comeback". I am assuming the pre-show convo went a lil something like this:

Handler 1: So, your acting coach gave us this thing called a tear stick.

Handler 2: Pretty much you do your little Michael Jackson dance, then some pictures of "shit that needs to change" like the oil spill and people who lost everything due to bad weather and shit are going to flash on screen THEN.... your "comeback"...Cue, "Man In the Mirror"

Handler 1: It's gonna be hard...but we want you to take this tear stick and SHOVE IT in your eyes. Wait a second. Act like you are about to sing. Then just act like a blubbering idiot. The tear stick will do all the crying FOR you. Just move your face around like you're taking a BIG dump. Walk around the stage, fall to your knees, punch at the air. Try to mumble a few words, then just cry more.

Handler 2: After tonight, people will view you as a changed man, who's looked in the mirror, changed his ways...

Handler 1: No message will be ANY clearer!!

(Chris Brown ponders this, waits a BEAT...then: )

Chris Brown: And this will make it so I'm NOT an abusive prick?

Handlers 1 & 2 : Absolutely!

Here's the performance (hysterics towards the end of the performance):
