Chris Brown stopped by The Today Show and had a brief chat with Matt Lauer. He went to promote his new single & video “Fine China” as well as his upcoming album X, but of course he had to talk about his personal life and being charged with felony assault back in 2009. Check out some excerpts below.
On how he’s changed and forgiven himself:
“I’ve been humbled by the whole experience. From me losing everything, you know, to me having to regain public opinion or whatever it is — but most importantly, you know, knowing that what I did was totally wrong and having to kind of deal with myself and kind of forgive myself in the same breath and being able to apologize to, you know, Rihanna and be that man that can be who is a man, you know?”
On what the public thinks of him:
“I think everybody is entitled to their opinion. For me, it’s just a learning process. You know, I have to just take it one day at a time. I can’t make everybody like me … it’s about me being positive.”
On his relationship with Rihanna:
“Yeah, everything’s good, we’re fine. I think it’s just me proving myself once again Knowing that what I did was wrong, and never doing it again. So as far as me and (Rihanna) are concerned, she knows my heart, and I know her heart. So I’m not really focused on the negative.”
On proving himself:
“For me, it’s about proving myself to my fans. The only thing I can do is please my family, myself, and please her, you know, and my fans.”
