Chris Brown is evidently feeling bad about making Tuesday morning anything but good for the folks over at Good Morning America.

During an appearance on BET's 106 & Park yesterday, the singer addressed the meltdown that went down in his dressing room following his interview with GMA cohost Robin Roberts.

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

Brown proceeded to explain that he "was kind of thrown off" by Roberts' line of questioning regarding his assault two years ago on Rihanna since he had expected the discussion to simply focus on his new album.

"I felt like they told us that just so they could get us on the show to exploit me. That's what I thought. So I took it very, very hard," he said. "And I kept my composure throughout the whole interview, although you could see I was upset. I kept my composure and did my performance, and when I got backstage, I just let off, like, steam. I just had to release the anger that I had inside me because I felt like I worked so hard for this music and I felt like people keep trying to take it away from me. So, yes, I got very emotional, and I apologize for acting like that."

And while an apology is certainly nice and all, it apparently wasn't exactly necessary, seeing how Good Morning America had already extended an invitation to the "Look at Me Now" singer to return for another visit.
