For the first time, Chris Brown sat down and chatted with Larry King in detail about his attack on Rihanna. With his mother, Joyce Hawkins, by his side, Brown tells Larry of his initial reaction to seeing the media coverage of the incident in this interview on the talk show host’s television program.

“I just look at it like…wow, I’m in shock because first of all, that’s not who I am as a person and that’s not who I pride myself on being,” Chris says.

Brown also claims that he doesn’t even remember the event taking place. Let’s hope Rihanna doesn’t catch his amnesia. More snippets from the interview will undoubtedly start turning up.
