Astro Apologizes for X Factor Outburst

by at .

On last Thursday's X Factor results show, Astro was voted into the bottom two - and then nearly got himself eliminated by initially refusing to sing for the judges' vote. It was a disgraceful show of poor sportsmanship.

But it also came from a young rapper who is only 15 years old, as Astro took to Facebook over the weekend and apologized for acting like a spoiled brat.

"What I do, I do for the love of Hip-Hop and my fans, and I would never doing anything to hurt either," he wrote. "I believed I was being mistreated... My guards are always up, and maybe I took the situation too heavy. I seriously apologize to my fans, what I said and my emotions weren't directed toward you. I'm 15 and I think I know everything, but the truth is, I don't, and I handled the situation wrong! Win or lose next week, I will make you all proud!"

Astro added that he wants to be the "new ambassador" for hip hop, while Simon Cowell said he's met with Astro and his father and everything is "much calmer now."

If true, that's too bad. The X Factor was just getting exciting!

    That ''race card'' that was talked about, and there was someone who clearly is lacking in education said ''we will pull the card when ever we want''. Its a crutch, did those terrible things happen to you? Or your parents? Or even your grandparents? Learn from the past don't live in it. We will never advance as a people with thinking (or lack there of) like yours.

    I don't know what half of these people were watching because it had nothing to do about race, it was just a kid showing how immature he really is and that tells me he isn't ready for a 5 million $ contract. Yes he did apologize and that took gutts, I personally don't like rap but Astro sounds just as good if not better than all the other rappers I've herd it would help if he could sing . He just needs to grow up and be a man because he has a future in the music industry and he is going to have to face a lot more criticism, he needs to be thankful fire the fans he has b because there the ones that are going to make him a rich man (boy).

    Astro you need to get your butt kick back to Brooklyn and your Mamma needs to teach you some manors and a lesson on how to be grateful and lose the punk attitude. Until then you need to be kicked off that show and let someone else win. Up to now you are nothing but a loser and a SPOILED BRAT! Try taking a lesson from Chris.

    This brat kid is a nobody trying to make it big just like the rest of the contestants. The big exception is he already has a huge ego and inflated self worth because he can write lyrics that rhyme and keep a beat....come on, people. HE CAN'T SING!!!! Do you see the other teenagers on the show acting like spoiled superstars?? No!! Being 15 is absolutely no excuse for being a punk. Astro needs to go back to Brooklyn....yesterday.
