Jackson brother 'liked Brown performance'

Jermaine Jackson has described Chris Brown's tribute performance to the late Michael Jackson as "very emotional".

Brown broke down while performing a medley of Jackson's songs at the BET Awards on Sunday night.

"To see [Chris's] performance, it was very emotional for me because it was an acceptance from his fans from what has happened to him and also paying tribute to my brother," Jermaine told Extra.

"It was just a spectacular moment."

Jermaine also insisted that it was important for the public to forgive Brown for his past mistakes.

"He deserves to perform because it's healing for him. How can he learn from his mistakes if you don't give him a chance? He needs that. I love Rihanna, and I'm not supporting what he did, but I support him [as a singer] 100%," he said.

"I'm just very emotional just knowing what has happened. Chris Brown is a human being and we all make mistakes. We can't condemn him for what has happened. We hope he has learned from it."

He added: "The woman is very, very precious. The woman is who give us life. It's very important that we treasure our women. I know he knows that now."
