First, how do we (on the DIS) know that "Justin HAD to apologize to attend the Grammy's"?
And if you had just won the highest award in your industry, wouldn't you be smiling?
As far as sincere or not, he appologized, more than once. If someone makes a mistake and appologizes, how many times do they have to say it? Once, 50, a thousand? Obviously, there are many people who won't ever accept an appology form anyone.
It was a stunt gone wrong for national TV viewing. He said he was sorry he did it, he said he was sorry if people were offended.
What else will you have him do? I know, he should have all his CDs recalled, have all the tapes of him in the MMC destroyed, he should never, ever, ever appear in public with out a huge S for sinner on his forehead, he should never be allowed to speak again, because he won't be believed anyway, no matter what he says. Hmmm, what ther punishment should he have, he will probably pay a huge fine to the FCC, maybe we should make sure he pay them everything he has, and all future earnings. SO he will be 100% broke, and then deny him public assistance, because it is his own fault that he is where he is......
Give it up people. It happened, he probably will be dropped from his record label. He has damaged his own career, he is paying an enormous price for his own stupidity.
