Cheryl thinks it's time we forgave Changed Man Chris Brown

  • May 18, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Cheryl 'Cheryl' Cole thinks it's time we all forgave Changed Man Chris Brown.

Talking on Alex James' (not that one) radio show InDemand (as reported here), she said that it was "really kind" of Rihanna to record an awful duet with him, adding: "She's come out and publicly forgiven him really. I think it's about time we all did if I'm com­pletely honest, if you want my opinion."

For Cheryl, it's obvious that the pressures of fame have added to the fact that people can't forgive: "I think because he's in the limelight…He hasn't had the chance to be forgiven or to forgive himself because we haven't let him."

That "we" bit sticks in the throat a bit doesn't it?

"Now that she's [Rihanna] come out and embraced him again, I think it's time we all moved on. That guy is talented as hell," she continued.

It is certainly useful to know that how talented someone is dictates how long it takes to forgive them for assault­ing women.
