Chris Brown: 'I worked hard to win back Rihanna'
Chris Brown won Rihanna back by showing her he was a changed man.
The R&B stars split in 2009 after a Grammy Awards eve fight, which landed Brown with an assault conviction, but they're now back together, and he insists he deserves a second chance at love.
He tells Los Angeles DJ Ryan Seacrest, "I just tried my best to be
the best man I could be over the years and just show her how
remorseful and sorry I was for the incident and that that time was
probably the worst part of my life... Being that she has (forgiven
me) and she's a wonderful person I'm eternally grateful and
thankful."
Brown admits he couldn't be happier to have Rihanna back in his
life: "It's still like we're kids. I try not to be too grown and be
like, 'Let's have candlelight (sic) dinner every night'. I try to
make sure everything is fun. It has to be fun and it has to be
genuine."
And he tells USA Today, "We're taking it one day at a time. She's a
wonderful girl. She's beautiful. She's on tour and our schedules
don't allow us to be as close as we want to be. But everything is
good."
The couple reconciled last year (12) and spent Christmas and New
Year together. Brown recently flew to Hawaii to celebrate his
girlfriend's birthday with her.
