"The best thing about the awards was the audience, which we try so hard to please and entertain seemed to really enjoy the show. It had something for everyone. It had great surprises with El DeBarge and Chris Brown. Besides that being a great surprise, that really... I think the pressure of the year and the lyrics of that song really just resonated. And, as someone who was backstage, there was nothing fake about that. I think there is a US Weekly story today about like his bodyguard gave him something to induce tears. Its just not true. I've been around actors who cry and when you fake cry, you don't get...your throat doesn't get swollen like it does [when you cry for real]. When he was trying to sing, he couldn't get anything out. That's a hard thing to fake. I appreciate people wanting to create controversy, but this guy has gone though a lot this past year, let this emotion be what it is. Everybody comes to the moment where you gotta make that change"
Stephen Hill also speaks on rumors that Jay-Z & Beyonce skipped the show because of Chris Brown:
"They missed the awards, because...we have this conversation almost every year. And, some years we are really fortunate when Jay-Z and Beyonce are in the house and other times, they go on vacation. But I can absolutely say without reservation that there was no conversation at all around, "If Chris Brown's coming, I'm not coming." That's just false."
...Welp, there's that. I, for one, never understood why the "fake tears" thing was even a question to begin with. I mean, when was the last time you listened to "Man In The Mirror" and didn't shed a tear or two? All in all, I'm just glad that Stephen finally cleared the air. Maybe now CB can continue with his plans to come back and
