I am sure my brother had his reasons for cancelling and personally I don't blame him. They need to leave all that past crap alone. That man served his time and is doing well with his career and family. I dont blame him for not subjecting himself to the scrutiny of the Oprah Show. People already can't get enough of talking about how wrong he is for something that at the end of the day is less offensive to me than adultery, theft, and various other things that celebs get into. LET IT GO AMERICA!!!
