I've been reading reactions to Justin's acceptance speech on my friends list and I'm genuinely baffled at the disappointment/anger over his omission of JC, Joey, Chris, and Lance in his thank yous. Aside from the fact that the only person he mentioned by name was his mother, the kid was trying to work an apology into his first ever Grammy acceptance speech. I can't even imagine the pressure of trying to make a moment yours while simultaneously apologizing to the country for your part in an embarrassing, unfortunate incident.

There has never been any doubt about the love those boys share. Throughout the hiatus they have supported each other publicly and, I'm sure, privately. We all saw JC sitting with Lynn for Justin's performance and read the report that JC was up out of his seat when Justin won. Hell, JC said on camera that he was there to support Justin. I doubt that support was tied into public acknowledgment of his role in Justin's success. We've also heard Justin speak out about JC's solo album with pride.

Of course we'd like to hear Justin thanks 'Nsync. Of course. But the fact that he didn't is not automatically a slight against the other guys or a reflection on his feelings about his time with 'Nsync.

In other news...I loved seeing Big Boi and Andre together. Their hug was fantastic. Those two are original and insanely talented.

Work now. Yes. Love it!
