I CRY AND I’M A MAN

Singer Ne-Yo fell ill while performing in Manchester this past week. Instead of walking off the stage, he stood in front of the audience and proceeded to cry. He then said that he’s always finished a show. Ne-Yo ended the show saying that he will be back. Some people cheered, others booed. Several have questioned his manhood. I’ve always found it commendable for an artist to be honest with their audience. I think it strengthens their bond with their fans but his crying makes me wonder what type of illness he has. Flu? Meningitis?

Ne-Yo has already told bloggers to go to hell (I’m sure this excludes yours truly). Do you question the singer’s manhood for crying at his show? Isn’t music supposed to be about emotion?
