Chris Brown: I am seeking counselling over Rihanna ‘attack’

Singer releases statement

Chris Brown and Rihanna never officially confirmed they were dating

Chris Brown has finally broken his silence over allegations he assaulted girlfriend Rihanna last week.

The R&B star turned himself into LA police on 8 February following the Grammys ceremony and booked on a charge of making criminal threats to the Umbrella singer.

Now Chris, 19, has released a statement apologising for the incident.

‘Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired,’ it reads.

‘I am seeking the counselling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person.’

But Chris has urged his fans not to believe everything they read about him and Rihanna, 20.

‘Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong,' he adds.

‘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 writings under my name are frauds.’
