First I just want to say you Beyonce fans are giving her WAY too much credit. The show would not have been any better if she was there as her performances are just as average as the next. Last years show was boring as well as this year. The Al Green tribute was great! Al still got it and showed all the entertainers how it's suppose to be done. Chris Brown's performance in the beginning was boring but when Ciara came out they shut it down! But like others have pointed out, the performance was too short! Chris should have just performed Take U Down.
