Usher has apologized for saying that Chris Brown should “have a little remorse” after the 19-year-old singer — who allegedly assaulted girlfriend Rihanna — was photographed jet skiing in Miami last weekend.

In a video for Jermaine Dupri’s “Living the Life” series, Usher says he is “a little disappointed” after seeing the shots of Brown vacationing. “Have a little bit of remorse, man,” he is overheard saying.

But in a statement late Tuesday, Usher says:

“The comments made during a recent recording session amongst friends were taken out of context and blown out of proportion. I apologize on behalf of myself and my friends if anyone was offended. The intentions were not to pass judgment and we meant no harm. I respect and wish the best for all parties involved.”

Brown is to be arraigned Thursday for allegedly assaulting Rihanna Feb. 8 in L.A.
