Chris Brown's Official Statement

"Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired. I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person. Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong. While I would like to be able to talk about this more, until the legal issues are resolved, this is all I can say except that I have not written any messages or made any posts to Facebook, on blogs or any place else. Those posts or writing under my name are frauds." Over the weekend Chris' dad also released a statement: "He's reflecting on this situation. He's very remorseful. He's very concerned about the situation and he wants to make sure that [Rihanna's] okay. This is unfortunate, this stumble, this situation. Hopefully, he will get past it. We all have our shortcomings. We all trip. If you are on his side, you are on his side," he says. "Just because someone trips, if you are truly a fan, you are not going to demonize him instantaneously." "As a father, I couldn't be more proud … He's the light of my life. I think he's [going to] grow as an individual," he says. "He's going to take from this situation and learn from it." Rhianna father had something to say too: "There is some bruising. [But] she will be alright. I think so. At some point, she will speak out. I hope she will stand up for women all over the world."
