Chris Brown spoke out for the first time since his assault of then-girlfriend Rihanna, but “spoke” is a relative term. “Wow” was the word he used most often to describe to CNN's Larry King the shock he still feels about the incident. “No, I don't” remember doing it, he says. “It's like, it's crazy to me. I'm like, wow. I just look at it like, wow, I'm in shock.”

“When I look at the police reports or I hear about the police reports, I don't know what to think,” he continues in the interview airing Wednesday. “It's just like, wow.” He also admits he’s still in love with Rihanna, and says he hates looking at the picture of her bruised face: “When I look at it now, it’s just like, wow, like, I can’t believe that actually happened.” (More Chris Brown stories.)
