Every time there’s an award show, someone manages to stir up Internet hive and get it all abuzz. Sunday night, it was Chris Brown at the 2010 BET Awards, complete with self-reflection, tears and a big fat look at the “Man in the Mirror.”

Brown put on quite a tribute to the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson, just one year after Jackson’s death. Dressed in full Michael Jackson attire, complete with finger bandages, Brown performed a medley of Jackson’s greatest hits that included “The Way You Make Me Feel” and “Billie Jean.” As “Man in the Mirror” kicked into play, Brown broke down in tears and couldn’t perform.

Now the hive’s abuzz with curiosity. Was Brown faking it? Emotionally distraught about the dive his career’s taken since the Rihanna incident? Did he just miss MJ?

I’ve seen Brown on a few talk shows since the incident, and I’ve seen him break down and cry in front of the cameras before.

Either he’s really emotional and getting in touch with his feelings, or he’s really good at turning on the waterworks.

What do you think? Take a look at the video footage and let me know if you think. Are his tears sincere, or is Chris Brown trying to pull the wool over the public eye.
