EXCLUSIVE: CHRIS BROWN FINALLY APOLOGIZES FOR RIHANNA BEATDOWN!

“Since February my attorney has advised me not to speak out, even though since the incident I wanted to publicily express my deepest regret and accept full responsibility…I felt it was time you heard directly from me that I am sorry. I have tried to live my life which can make those around me proud of me and until recently I think I was doing a pretty good job. I wish I had the chance to live those few moments again, but unfortunately I can’t. I cannot go into what happened and most importantly I’m not going to sit here and make any excuses. I take great pride in me being to excercise self-control and what I did was inexcuseable. I am very sad and very ashamed of what I’ve done…I have told Rihanna countless times and I’m telling you today that I am truly, truly sorry and that I wasn’t able to handle the situation both differently and better….I have let a lot of people down…and noone is more disappointed in me than I am. As many of you know, I grew up in a home where there was domestic violence and I saw first hand what uncontrolled rage can do. I have sought and am continuing to seek help to ensure what occured in February cannot ever happen again. And as I sit here today I can tell you that I will do everything in my power to make sure that it never happens again and I promise that. What I did was unacceptable, 100%. I can only ask and pray that you forgive me please. I hope that others learn from my mistake. I intend to live my life, so that I’m truly worthy of term role model. Thank you.”
