Chris Brown Apologizes for Beating Rihanna--Finally!

I totally agree with barefootchbum, you can't put your hands on someone and then apologize when you feel like it and expect peeps to care. I hope that she never trust him again and that he learns his lesson. I am not one to wish bad on anyone but i think that maybe he should get the crap kicked out of him and then the person go on youtube (after taking their sweet time) and apologize for it and see how he feels about it. I think he is a assclown and he should never be trusted again.

Well, may god forgive him because Rihanna shouldn't. She can't take chances of this happening again & her being killed. Men never change & that is a very important concept to learn. If she accepts him back, he may change for a little while & then beat her up again because that is what he is...a wife or girlfriend beater. You can never trust a guy like this.

Amazing what "in the toilet with record sales" can accomplish.  The bottom line here is classic-----money, money, money, pure and simple.

That makes everything alright. How totaly worthless it holds no value at all. Once a beater always a beater. The moment a man puts his hand on you to hurt you he won't stop. The same thing goes for a woman. My nephew all of eighteen years of age had his girlfriend beat on him and his grandfather. The moment he resisted her beating him that night he managed to rap her forehead with hiss knuckles one time. She weigh as much as he does probably more. His grandfather was black and blue where he was beaten by this girl. It amazes me how in self defense with numerous wittness he was arrested. Granpa end up at the hospital the picturs and the report seemingly disappear. After a complaint was posed against the girl all disappear. Suddenly about forty photos went missing. After a complaint was offically filed against the girl she reported my nephews mother to licensing.. This girl went wild when she came back to the apartment they share prematurely to find them moving my nephew out. She jumped on him beat on him, broke nearly every dish in the home, threw his cell phone out the second story window when he went to call the police.. then one of the times she was beating on the youngman his mother tried to pull  the girlfriend off of him at which time one of her girlfriends attack the mother from behind. Does this make sense to anyone? I mean because a woman is beating on you does that mean you have to sit back and allow her to batter you more then six times? 

Let me first say, what he did was wrong anyway you look at it.  I'm sure God will forgive him if he's asked him.  I just pray that none of us ever make a mistake that we have to ask forgiveness for, especially in public.  I don't understand how you can't forgive, when one day you yourself will ask to be forgiven.  Just food for thought.  Not that it's us he really needs forgiveness from.  What ever the reason for his public apology( money, image, records,etc...) he has grown to the point that what ever his legal consul recommanded he need to apologize.  I pray that someone learns from his mistake.  I say again he was WRONG

I don't condone what he did nor would I forgive my husband for doing such a thing but I wasn't there that night and have no idea what went on between them to. I'm not saying that she deserved either. His apology did seem sincere and yes he took his time but if he had done this within a few weeks of the incident he would be looked at the same, "just doing it because he has to." I believe that his lawyer has told him not to talk publicly about it and I don't think he needed to. He has to face what he has done and he has to apologize to her and his family. If he is getting help then more support to him because very people who do what he has done ever seek help. The truth is that he is taking responsibility for his actions and not seeking to use his fame to get off, which makes him a better role model than most other celebs!

I think that is a load of crap.  He only did it to save what little was left of his untalented career...

I remember when this first happened - someone from the inside camp told a relative of mine that he beat her because she gave him herpes. Whatever the reason, he should never have laid his hands on her, period, point, blank!!! An apology this late is worthless.

He wants to recapture his audiences attention in a positive light. Hang it up! This will hurt your career Chris!
