Yesterday we learned that convicted felon Chris Brown lost his temper and exploded in a violent outburst in the ABC News studios in NYC, NY after he was asked a couple of questions about his assault conviction a couple of years ago. In hindsight, Brown realized that his violence was unwarranted and he appeared on BET‘s 106 & Park to publicly apologize for the outburst. Saying that he felt “exploited”, Brown explained that his violent outburst was a result of his need to “release [his] anger” at being questioned during the interview.
“First of all, I just wanna apologize to anybody who was startled in the office, anybody who was offended or really disappointed in my actions, because I was disappointed with the way I acted. A lot of people don’t know what went down, and obviously when I do shows or when I do interviews, we always send out a talking point sheet. As the interview proceeded, it was kinda thrown off. I was thrown off by it. I felt like they told us this just so they could get us on the show so they can exploit me. So I took it very, very hard and I really kinda kept my composure throughout the whole interview, although you can see me upset, I kept my composure, I did my performance. And when I got back, I just let off steam. I didn’t physically hurt anyone, I didn’t try to hurt anyone, I just wanted to release the anger that I had inside me because I felt that I worked so hard for this music and I felt like people kept just trying to take it away from me. So yes, I got very emotional, and I wanna apologize for acting like that.”
Here is a follow-up report by ABC News that features some video of Brown‘s apology:
IMHO, this apology is nothing but lip service. Brown has a new album out this week and he wants people to buy it so he felt compelled to offer an apology to try and move past this latest incident of violence. I do not buy it for one second. I am utterly convinced that this sort of outrageously violent behavior will happen again … I just hope the next time he blows up an needs to “release his anger” no one else will get hurt physically by his actions.
