Usher is quick to retract the comment he previously made on Chris Brown, saying he is sorry for claiming Chris was lack of remorse when the "Run It!" singer was photographed jet skiing in Miami last week though investigation on his battery case involving Rihanna is still on-going. In a statement issued on Tuesday, March 3, Usher said, "I apologize on behalf of myself and my friends if anyone was offended."
"The comments made during a recent recording session amongst friends were taken out of context and blown out of proportion," Usher continued. "The intentions were not to pass judgment and we meant no harm. I respect and wish the best for all parties involved."
Usher made a comment in a video recorded as part of Jermaine Dupri's "Living the Life" series on Monday, March 2 regarding Chris being photographed jet skiing in Miami last Thursday, February 26 during what was claimed as his reconciliation with estranged girlfriend Rihanna, nearly three weeks after their major blow-up. "I'm a little disappointed in this photo," Usher has been quoted as saying in the video, adding that instead of riding around on a jet ski, Chris should "have a little bit of remorse" for Rihanna, whom he allegedly assaulted.
No words just yet from Chris Brown's camp regarding Usher's comment.
