Hi, I’m Chris Brown.
“Since February my attorney has advised me not to speak out even though ever since the incident I wanted to publicly express my deepest regret and accept full responsibility. Although I will do some interviews and answer some questions in the future, I thought it was time that you heard directly from me: I am sorry.
“I have tried to live my life in a way 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 able to exercise self control and what I did was inexcusable.
