Chris Brown 'Thought Rihanna Photo Wasn't Real'

Chris Brown was so shocked at the leaked photograph of Rihanna's beaten face - that he even thought the picture may have been Photoshopped.
The singer, who was found guilty of assaulting his then girlfriend in February, admits that he now finds it hard to believe he did such damage to the R&B star.
Speaking for the first time about the incident, he told Larry King of seeing the police photo: "I first saw it maybe a week after the incident, TMZ posted it. I didn't know what to think."
"At the time I had no idea... I didn't know if they were altered, if they were real, I was just like, wow. I was just so disappointed."
"When I look at it now, I can't believe that actually happened."
But Chris insists that the person he became that night was "a different person."
"I'm in shock, that's not who I am as a person. When I see the police reports, when I hear what happened, I don't know what to think. It's crazy to me."
"From the outside looking in, on the TV when they're saying this, they're saying that... It seemed like a different person."
