U.S rapper Chris Brown, who recently lost his temper during an interview on ABC's Good Morning America, has apologized on television for the violent outburst. 

The 'Yeah 3X' star reportedly ripped his shirt off and smashed a window at the studio after he was asked repeatedly about the restraining order taken out against his by ex-girlfriend Rihanna, but he appeared on BET's '106 and Park' yesterday, March 23, and said sorry:

"I'm great you know, actually, as you can see after the incident you saw me out with my people and just trying to enjoy life and enjoy the experience of having my album out, but I just think yesterday..."

"First of all I want to apologize to anyone who was startled in the office, anybody who was offended or really looked disappointed in my actions because I was disappointed in the way I acted."

He also cleared up the rumours and explained that the interviewer simply didn't comply with the talking point sheet and went off-topic, leaving him feeling 'exploited'. Watch Brown's full apology and honest explanation here:
