A week after the alleged attack Chris Brown made on his girlfriend, Rihanna, the singer has finally spoken.

The following statement was issued by a spokesman on behalf of Brown:

"Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired. I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person.

Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong.

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."

No mention whatsoever of Rihanna, however the fact that he is "seeking counselling" means he isn't denying the situation, right?

It's still too vague for any more details, but it's about time he's said something.

What do you think of Chris Brown's statement on the incident?
