Chris Brown Apologizes For 'Good Morning America' Outburst

Chris Brown had a bad morning on Tuesday. For that, he's very sorry.

The singer, who let out an emotional outburst backstage after a contentious interview on "Good Morning America," addressed his allegedly violent, window-smashing tirade on the BET music video countdown show, "106 & Park."

"First of all, I want to apologize to anybody who was startled in the office, or anybody who was offended or really looked, and [was] disappointed at my actions," Brown said on the show (via RadarOnline). "Because I'm disappointed in the way I acted."

"I felt like they told us this just so they could get us on the show so they can exploit me," Brown said. "So I took it very, very hard and I really kinda kept my composure throughout the whole interview, although you can see me upset, I kept my composure, I did my performance.

"And when I got back I just let off steam. I didn't physically hurt anyone, I didn't try to hurt anyone, I just wanted to release the anger that I had inside me because I felt that I worked so hard for this music and I felt like people kept just trying to take it away from me."

Brown's outburst came after repeated questioning by co-anchor Robin Roberts about the 2009 incident in which he inflicted a devastating beating on his then-girlfriend, Rihanna.

In a statement that followed the incident, Roberts said that she had a good relationship with Brown, was shocked by his outburst, and invited him back to the show.

Chris Brown Approved The 'Good Morning America' Questions That Set Him Off Into A Violent Rage

During yesterday's Chris Brown interview on Good Morning America, the singer was asked some fairly tough, personal questions about the 2009 incident when he left girlfriend-at-the-time Rihanna battered and bloody.

TMZ.com reports that host Robin Roberts and other staff members at ths show spoke with Brown before the on-air interview and asked his permission to ask him a few questions about the incident - which happened shortly before the 2009 Grammy Awards - and Brown gave Roberts the go-ahead on the queries.

But during the interview things changed, and a visibly rattled Brown skirted around the questions, focusing instead on promoting his new album, "F.A.M.E.," which came out Tuesday.

"I mean, I mean, not really; I mean it's not really a big deal to me now as far as that situation. I think I'm past that in my life; and I think... today is the album day, so that's what I'm focused on - so everybody go get the album," he told host Roberts.

Brown further avoided the issue when asked how he's been able to get past that low point in his life, and he shifted the focus to his album again; saying,"I've been focusing on this album, you know? I think this, this album is what, you know, I want people to hear and want people to really get into; so, definitely this ALBUM is what i want them to talk about and not that stuff that happened two years ago."

Though he tried to hide it, the singer was obviously angry; and after the talk his violent side manifested again while back in his dressing room, where he allegedly smashed out one of the windows, leaving shattered glass in the room and on the street below, and yelled loud enough for security to have been called by GMA staff members. Afterward, Brown ripped off his shirt and left the building, subsequently blowing off another interview and performance he had scheduled.
