Chris Brown: 'Of Course' I Remember
Claims King interview taken out context.
In his first television interview since being arrested and sentenced for beating up pop star Rihanna, R&B artist Chris Brown sat down with CNN's Larry King for an interview and said he didn't remember the fight. But now, Brown says that comment was taken out of context. The singer, 20, said he didn't remember the fight on the eve of the Grammy Awards when King asked him, but he said in a statement that answer was a mistake. "Of course I remember what happened," the statement reads. "I just misspoke." Brown tells King he's in "shock" over what happened. "When I look at it now, it's just like, wow, like, I can't believe that that actually happened," he says. Brown also tells King he still loves Rihanna, but must keep his distance due to a judge's restraining order, requiring them to be "like 10 yards away from each other." CNN obtained a probation report for Brown last week, citing at least two prior incidents of domestic violence between him and Rihanna. The interview airs Wednesday.
