Hilson: 'People are forgiving Chris Brown'

Keri Hilson has suggested that the general public has begun to forgive her 'One Night Stand' collaborator Chris Brown.

Speaking to MTV News, the R&B singer contended that Brown has shown sufficient regret for his alleged domestic dispute of former girlfriend Rihanna.

"People are already putting [Brown] back in their good graces 'cause they see his remorse," she said.

Hilson further asserted that the 'Forever' musician has matured and developed into a responsible man in the last few years.

She noted: "And I know people are saying, 'Is he really a man? You have him on your album'. I mean, yeah. To me, a man is someone - you don't go backwards in life.

"You learn from your mistakes, and you don't do it again. You show remorse, and you move on. You move forward onto bigger and better things. That's a man trait."

Earlier this week, it was reported that Brown has completed a domestic abuse course.
