Singer Chris Brown has told CNN's Larry King he cannot remember what happened the night he assaulted then-girlfriend Rihanna.
Brown made the revelation in an interview scheduled to air on the network this week.
He said he feels like he is reading about a stranger when he looks at the police incident report.
"I'm in shock, because, first of all, that's not who I am as a person, and that's not who I promise I want to be," he tells King in the interview.
"I just don't know what to think. I'm just like, wow. It's crazy to me."
Brown was sentenced to five years' probation and 180 days of community labour for beating up Rihanna. The sentencing by a Los Angeles judge followed a plea deal.
Brown, 20, pleaded guilty to assault on June 22 .
He assaulted Rihanna during an argument that began in the early hours of February 8, while the couple were in a rented Lamborghini. The incident left the 21-year-old starlet bloodied and bruised, and stunned Brown's fans. But a probation report issued on Tuesday showed the couple had a violent history.
As part of the sentence, Brown was also ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from Rihanna, unless they are both attending an entertainment industry function, when the restriction would be lowered to 10 yards.
