He beat her. He apologized. Its over, let him become the star we all know he is. All us regular people don’t throw stones, celebrity mistakes are blown out of proportion. Granted this situation was” bad, real bad, Michael Jackson!” but let it be, he is a singer and doesn’t owe us his personal life. Let him be! He is truly a great artist that I would like to witness flourish. I know some of you are think, “owe what if it was my sister he beat” its true there would be no way I could forgive him, true. But the way I look at it, if it was my sister the guy wouldn’t have to face the world! look Its understood that this is just the way artists today have to gwan but he slipped up and he faced the camera like a G. I accept your apology brezzy.
I don’t condone beating women, but I accept the apology. The man seems contrite and to be honest, nobody REALLY knows what went down. However, it is clear to everyone Chris was at fault and although what he did was fucked up, I can forgive a man for making a really really big mistake. I wish Chris and Rihanna the very best….
Even though I would have liked to have had a more honest and heartfelt apology instead of reading a teleprompter. I can admit it took a lot for him to stand up and say he was wrong. Now Rhianna needs to apologize for putting her hands on him so people will understand it was not unprovoked and he can truely move on with his life.
lol that had me cringin… “and iv told rhianna” blah blah blah lol…damn chris was there no way to maybe get an ear piece so someone could of fed you your lines intead of u strugglin to read from the teleprompter???
i mean lets be real rihanna had some part to play in that so why she isnt adressing it?stop looking at the man and atleast look at both parties?i dont care about him saying sorry because the media just need somebody to bad mouth but he gonna be back on top again soon when the next celeb gets in trouble
its crazy how many times this man gotta apologize when Rihanna never once addressed her play in the fight Chris aint jus gonna slap her ass 4 nothing she playing victim knowing she started that shit lol
I have seen my father choking my mother to death, telling her that he is going to kill her in front of me and my little brother countless times ; JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE STRENGTH TO DO IT DOESNT MEAN YOU SHOULD OR THAT ITS OKAY.
Domestic violence is real its not a joke, so I feel really sad when i read things.
In the black community we pretend like its nothing; and often say the woman deserved it.
I wIll make sure to tell my son to walk away and to never put his hand on a woman because quite honestly if you keep beating all the women soon there will be no more for you to put your hands.
why should rihanna apologize ? .. i swear they said ..chris brown put his hands on her first , so what is she suppose to do just sit there and take the beating ? .. what do you mean .she’s acting like she’s the victim? ..she is the victim …why is niggaz trying to take up for chris brown .like what he did wasn’t wrong ..or a serious issue …and the fact ..he couldn’t get on camera and give a tru apology .from the heart .of how he really feel and felt .. tells me .. he’s just doing this ..so he can keep his fans and endorsement deals .. it’s a publicly stunt …if you apologizing ..it should come straight from you ..not some TelePrompter.
HE’S SPEAKING OUT NOW????? FAIL!!!!! He waited to long, he should have been said something. All those pics of him out and about, smiling and having fun. He should have layed low then came out and said sorry imo.
I find it strange that most of yall are saying “we dont know what she did… we havent heard her side of the story…. she hasnt put out any apologies….” Are you serious? She is a woman. He is a man. It dont matter what she did or didnt do. She didnt deserve to get a beat down that couldve cost her life! Chris hit her repeatedly, when all he had to do was step out of the car and cool off. She catches him cheating and then he beats her asss, and you guys are condoning his actions, saying that this is ok and enough is enough. Am I missing something here? Then this guy doesnt even have the nerve to say something sincere and from the heart. Instead hes reading from a dam teleprompter. I hope this dude never gets another penny.
God Bless you.I am not one to pass judgement on anyone.We all make mistake’s.It take a real man to no they have made a mistake.I hope that u get the help u need.Because we all need help.Threw GOD u will get threw it.Keep your head,and stay focus.Put GOD first and u will get threw it.Put this behind u,and start fresh.conttinue to be blessed with the voice that God gave u.
i didnt really pay attention to this incident when i heard about it till i saw the pics….thats what blew that sh*t outta me…to c her face like dat was not kcool at all. we all make mistakes in life but theres some that we can easily avoid or handle better…..this dude is too young to even b hitting on a woman not that im sayin theres a age 4 dat!…this video shoulda been made a while ago cuz mah dude they say itz neva too late but F dat…u late! im pretty sure u’ve learned ur lesson n hopefully u can get ur life back 2getha….
That sucked because hes reading it you can tell from his eyes. And nobody cares now what that jiggaboo C Beezy is up to anyway. get back to music and let them white girls buy your albums…you know they can take it.
I believe it was sincere… He wrote it, it probably was longer, but I’m sure his attorney edit it. Chris has done interviews in the past and is pretty intelligent. He hit it on the money, look forward to him working with different charities for domestic violence.
I’ve been except his apology no one is perfect, not even me and I am not famous. I have always wished him well.
Michael Phelps got a second chance, R kelly got a second chance, Bobby Brown got a second chance, know rap artist with a history of drug dealing including Jay z got a second chance, Kanye and his disrepsectful attitude and actions got a secon chance. Heck TI won an award in Jail
I’ve always believed this was a situation CB & Rhianna went through that escalated. CB is not woman beater and I do believe Rhianna initiated the matter. Don’t make the outcome right or his actions, but no one should be putting their hands on anyone, includin Rhianna and I am a femal married with children wrong is wrong.
damn where was all the bashing when gucci mane hit dat female?not too many of you niggas was callin him out on that.i guess it depends on who you are in the music biz
Don’t hit somebody if you don’t want to get hit back. That goes for both Chris and Rhianna. Women are getting more and more violent and getting more and more brave when it comes to using their hands against thier men. Not saying its right but it needs to be said. Did anyone think maybe she just slipped and landed on his fist 17 times. It happens.
I’m still awaitin an apology from the BET awards for that Bogus Michael Jackson Tribute… lol..lol… I have not gotten over the Entire Awards show was Bogus… I hear a Tribute for MJ to possibly take place on his Birthday August 29th. I hope they have Chris Brown performing. He is very talented and his presence in the music business has been truly missed. I’m tired of seeing all the 1/2 nake women performing, so old.. Ladies in the industry needs to switch it up I wonder who would have the guts and Respect to perform and keep theirselves covered.
I see Ciara cut her hair, looks cute by the way…
CB will continue to remain in my prayers, this is a teachable moment for everyone even the hypocrits in the Music insdustry casting the stones like Jay Z… Good apology Chris however, you owe your apology to God and Rhianna only no one else, rather you were the cause or not. Humility goes a long way. Thank God for you, I’m sure your going to be an example to all youth.
Heck Mike Tyson was forgiven especially by all the rappers years ago, including Jay Z they all were at Mike Tyson fights supporting him. No one shpuld Judge but good jb CB. Good job!!!
God bless CB and Rhianna.. Peace…
Times have changed so much to point that people have forgotten the basics. whether your dating, married or just friends you should respect a person space. If you disagree with what someone is doing or saying then you have a right to walk away or say I’m not going to put up with how you do things, not put your hands on someone or even provoke them. Some women nowadays seem to want to put hands on a brother because of an unwanted action, for example: You know Rihanna grab that phone and pop his ass a good one, and in return Chris felt as if she violated him, which sparked him to loose control like he did. Chris seen his mother get violated all the time and he said to himself that he was not going to let anyone do him the same way. Some of y’all are probably like what ever, but If any of you attended college and has taken psychology courses, then you would know about the theories of why this could have happen. I’m not taken up for Chris and what he did was wrong. We as black people act like we have no ethics on how to carry ourselves in a professional manner. A lot of abusive relationships can be avoided, if you take the time to build a friendship and getting to know each other longer than a year. You yourself know that when you meet someone and start to date that your on your best behavior, then once that comfort zone is gone your true self starts to come out and only then do you start to really know someone.
hmmmm sounds sincere but too scripted
once ur labeled a woman beater its REALLY hard to make the public forget ur mistakes(ie. r kelly, OJ, etc.)
and it will still be brought up i guarantee throughout his life
i dunno tho…i mean u had oprah sayin once he hits u he will hit u again
Black people accept anything from each other
So of course dumb ass black folks dont care about the situation and accept his apology
Fuck standing up for something we rather support mediorce music from Chris
This was a scripted apology he had to do for the public because he wants to come out with some music soon
Thats the reason he apologize
he got a album finna drop so he had to make this video and soon he will be doing interviews
He gonna do and say what folks wanna hear so that he can get that paper
Nothing more nothing less
He a woman beater
But he tryna to flip
The question isnt do you forgive him
Its are you gonna support a woman beater?
Hes the soulja boy of the singing world
None of his songs are meaning or of substance
Just more bullshit
His new album still might be on some my mind is stuck in high school
When that nigga is grown
Still singing songs for 16yr olds
people are sooo immature and trifling… true chris brown doesn’t owe us an apology but by him being celebrity, his actions do somehow trickle down and affect the public. many of his fans may have direct or indirect exposure to domestic violence and therefore his actions really hurt them.
now for the fans that are jumping to his defense by attacking rihanna, they must have no real experience with domestic abuse or they must just be really young or just plain ignorant because she IS the victim. he put a thrashing on her and that was way too excessive. i’ve never once heard him or anyone that represents her state that rihanna beat him first and he retaliated. they released information from the police report and even there it DOES NOT state that she hit him first and he was protecting himself.
he plead GUILTY, he acknowledged he was wrong why can’t the CB stans do the same?
SIDEBAR:: stop being a hypocrite…. if you hating on Joe Jackson for being a TOUGH and STRICT parent then in the same breath you feel that Chris Brown is an angel even though he ABUSED his girlfriend… you a dam* fool.
ALL THE FEMALES THAT OVERLOOKED THIS OVERLOOK IT BECAUSE THEY JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER THEY ON SOME HE’S CUTE LET HIM BREATH UNTIL HE GOES UPSIDE THEIR HEAD ALL THE DUDES THAT OVERLOOK THIS IS HOMO.IN NO CIRCUMSTANCE DO YOU PUT YOUR HANDS ON A FEMALE AND TO THE DUDES THATS BEEN PHYSICALLY ABUSED BY A FEMALE KNOWS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT YOU GET THE FUCK OUT OF DODGE AND HONESTLY THE THINGS A FEMALE CAN SAY TO A MAN HURTS MORE THAN HER PHYSICALLY ABUSING HIM BOTTOM LINE CHRIS BROWN MADE HIS BED SO HE HAS TO LAY ON IT AND IF YOU GREW UP WATCHING YOUR STEP DAD BEAT YOUR MOMS WHY WOULD YOU DO THE SAME THING?WAS HE TAKING NOTES.
CB does not pay my bills and does no owe me nor my kids and apology, he owes God and Rhianna period point blank. Trust me he has a lot of fans in Chicago, IL a couple of radio stations had forgives as a topic today and this was the subject matter the Chris and Rhianna situation. A lot of callers said forgivenes is the answer, he’s young and deserves a second chanc. I agree well actually my children and I never stop supporting him. This was a teachable moment in our houselhold just like a lot of incindents in their schools, or other relatives home, even our home. No one is perfect and the Celebrities are not considered role models in our home only Jesus is our role model. CB, nor Rhianna are Role models their people like us all and they make mistakes, they entertain, that is their job.
Chris sounded sincere to me, I’m sure he probably wrote an apology himself, but his counsel must have tweek it, that’s what it sounds like. Can’t wait until he does another concert for my kids and niece. He’s a great performer and singer andworks really hard. I’m sure like he said he wish he could have handled the situation differently, also my opinion I think Rhianna should address the matter too, I’m sure CB just pleaded guilty so all of this could go away. Sometimes rather one is right or wrong humility is the best option. This indeed is a learning experience for him and us all. No one should juge, life goes on….
Im pretty sure chris wusnt IKE’IN it all like that. i wudnt beat a bitch up unless i wus really gettin smashed on. yeaa he fucked up bt hes talented rite? all i kno is chris needa hit the studio and not hit the ladies. smack a bitch when needed dnt mollywop her. But 4real give that nigga captain crunch his shirt back
Funny I was wondering what was up with the shirt too. But honestly I think this was a Michael Jackson look.. Remember MJ did an apology wearing looks like the same color shirt CB has on? MJ and CB had the same attorney… Anyway I saw past the shirt, but his apology was sincere.. I have always and will continue to wish this young man well..
CB stay focused & prayed up. You see peoples true colors now, people more than likely was hating on you behind the scenes. God Bless Chris and his family… My heart goes out to Rhianna to because she seems like a lost soul. Being 1/2 naked in front of the cameras and clubbing it around married men, doesn’t mean she is healed, looks like she has some issues within she ’s covering up, Rhi needs to address her issues too or believe you and me her attitude and actions will roll over to the nex relationship if she doesn’t seek help alse. Everything happens for a reason God never puts nothing on you more than one can handle. I can almost gurantee Rhi will not have a steady healthy relationship with any man moving forward… She knows the truth about her behavior and until she deals with it or addresses it in private she will go through a cycle of men.
Off the Record…lol..lol. I really think she wants Jay Z… I really think she always wanted him he’s older and mature, but he now is married. I heard she was not invited to the wedding and she did not know about it. That is when her and Chris became closer, she reached out and tried to have her own relationship and Jay knew he couldn’t say much because Chris was a good kid and talented. Also how would that have looked Jay tryin to dictate her relationship with Chris, rumors was already flyin about them two and I hear MRS. Bey thought they were too close anyway.. So everyone keep watching, I won’t be surprised anything is possible I’m going tto leave it at that…
Peace~

YOU RAISE A VERY VALID POINT,THAT PEOPLE-SPECIFICALLY ADOLESCENT GIRLS-ARE WILLING TO LOOK OVER THIS VIOLENT INCIDENT DUE TO FEELING SOME SORT OF ATTRACTION TOWARDS CHRIS BROWN.
Chris apologized whether he read his apology or not. He is an experienced music writer who have won an award for writing musice, so there is no doubt he can write his feelings in an apology note. So what he read from a teleprompter, Obama has been speaking from a telepromter since he started his run for president and on to the White House. Everytime Obama speak there is a teleprompter. Chris did not have to apologize again to you ungrateful people. His real fans accepted his apology long time ago.
For those of you who think Rihanna was not the aggressor in the fight, go to TMZ site and lookup Rihanna or Chris Brown and locate the police report. TMZ stated that she struck first and several times. They got the picture and you know they got the police report, too. Read it. If you hit expect to get hit back, male or female.
dude i thought u were different..:(
am like trying to decide if u should be given a second chance or thrown in a dungeon am…….dungeon it is jk evry body deserves a second chance no matter Ur stature celeb or not
but damn u tore tht biitch up
Oh My you can’t please anyone. he has apologized, now what!!!! Come on people have forgiveness for goodness sake… He has pleaded guilty to something I’m sure he did not initiate, don’t make it right for his actions or hers, things escalated beyond their control, Chris and Rhi are both young and have a lot of maturing to do. He’s dam if he do he’s damed if he don’t.
CB keep your head up.. All the Nay Sayers can kick rocks. Stay focused and keep God first You are very talented keep the music coming I hope you perform at th MJ Tribute on August 29th you are the only one who can Kill a Michael Jackson Tribute Fo Real..Now that’s Real Talk
Cmon everynigga would do that to get money and a comeback againt he would do it again hey apologizin to get his ass back on the program and be save from the niggas like jay watching for him
chris uve done the baddes wrong in ur life now see how it hurts
i mean even then its unforgiven but if it was one clap or sumthin it would be another situation but u aint clapin u hittin and not once u whooped the shit out of that girl like u about to kill her but thats what u said to her right? u cant whoop the hell out of her leave her with broken bones and a face like a car accident and then come around with a sorry guys. now its ur ass bout to get whooped.
Chris made a mistake among many out of his whole life and just like with any mistake, you apologize. I think this experience has changed Chris Brown for the better. I’m not saying I would trust him as a boyfriend, but as a singer and artist I would. He has always made amazing music. I’ve been a fan and always will be a fan. I forgive you for making a mistake and so should all the people in this world who forget that they aren’t perfect! I don’t approve of you putting your hands on a female, but a mistake is a mistake.

July 20th, 2009 at 4:43 pm
rofl if you beat up a singer of her status you wouldnt perform either. your ass would get boo’d and pies thrown at you
July 20th, 2009 at 4:56 pm
He beat her. He apologized. Its over, let him become the star we all know he is. All us regular people don’t throw stones, celebrity mistakes are blown out of proportion. Granted this situation was” bad, real bad, Michael Jackson!” but let it be, he is a singer and doesn’t owe us his personal life. Let him be! He is truly a great artist that I would like to witness flourish. I know some of you are think, “owe what if it was my sister he beat” its true there would be no way I could forgive him, true. But the way I look at it, if it was my sister the guy wouldn’t have to face the world! look Its understood that this is just the way artists today have to gwan but he slipped up and he faced the camera like a G. I accept your apology brezzy.

Don’t hit somebody if you don’t want to get hit back. That goes for both Chris and Rhianna. Women are getting more and more violent and getting more and more brave when it comes to using their hands against thier men. Not saying its right but it needs to be said. Did anyone think maybe she just slipped and landed on his fist 17 times. It happens.

Times have changed so much to point that people have forgotten the basics. whether your dating, married or just friends you should respect a person space. If you disagree with what someone is doing or saying then you have a right to walk away or say I’m not going to put up with how you do things, not put your hands on someone or even provoke them. Some women nowadays seem to want to put hands on a brother because of an unwanted action, for example: You know Rihanna grab that phone and pop his ass a good one, and in return Chris felt as if she violated him, which sparked him to loose control like he did. Chris seen his mother get violated all the time and he said to himself that he was not going to let anyone do him the same way. Some of y’all are probably like what ever, but If any of you attended college and has taken psychology courses, then you would know about the theories of why this could have happen. I’m not taken up for Chris and what he did was wrong. We as black people act like we have no ethics on how to carry ourselves in a professional manner. A lot of abusive relationships can be avoided, if you take the time to build a friendship and getting to know each other longer than a year. You yourself know that when you meet someone and start to date that your on your best behavior, then once that comfort zone is gone your true self starts to come out and only then do you start to really know someone.

His new album still might be on some my mind is stuck in high school
When that nigga is grown
Still singing songs for 16yr olds
July 21st, 2009 at 11:21 am
people are sooo immature and trifling… true chris brown doesn’t owe us an apology but by him being celebrity, his actions do somehow trickle down and affect the public. many of his fans may have direct or indirect exposure to domestic violence and therefore his actions really hurt them.
now for the fans that are jumping to his defense by attacking rihanna, they must have no real experience with domestic abuse or they must just be really young or just plain ignorant because she IS the victim. he put a thrashing on her and that was way too excessive. i’ve never once heard him or anyone that represents her state that rihanna beat him first and he retaliated. they released information from the police report and even there it DOES NOT state that she hit him first and he was protecting himself.
he plead GUILTY, he acknowledged he was wrong why can’t the CB stans do the same?
July 21st, 2009 at 11:23 am
he needs money for them bills
So here is an fake apology for when he drops a single for his new album thats about to drop
July 21st, 2009 at 11:23 am
SIDEBAR:: stop being a hypocrite…. if you hating on Joe Jackson for being a TOUGH and STRICT parent then in the same breath you feel that Chris Brown is an angel even though he ABUSED his girlfriend… you a dam* fool.
July 21st, 2009 at 12:04 pm

July 21st, 2009 at 3:54 pm
real men never say sorry…they just smack a bitch. what a fucking punk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol52eu67isk
July 21st, 2009 at 7:09 pm
CB does not pay my bills and does no owe me nor my kids and apology, he owes God and Rhianna period point blank. Trust me he has a lot of fans in Chicago, IL a couple of radio stations had forgives as a topic today and this was the subject matter the Chris and Rhianna situation. A lot of callers said forgivenes is the answer, he’s young and deserves a second chanc. I agree well actually my children and I never stop supporting him. This was a teachable moment in our houselhold just like a lot of incindents in their schools, or other relatives home, even our home. No one is perfect and the Celebrities are not considered role models in our home only Jesus is our role model. CB, nor Rhianna are Role models their people like us all and they make mistakes, they entertain, that is their job.
Chris sounded sincere to me, I’m sure he probably wrote an apology himself, but his counsel must have tweek it, that’s what it sounds like. Can’t wait until he does another concert for my kids and niece. He’s a great performer and singer andworks really hard. I’m sure like he said he wish he could have handled the situation differently, also my opinion I think Rhianna should address the matter too, I’m sure CB just pleaded guilty so all of this could go away. Sometimes rather one is right or wrong humility is the best option. This indeed is a learning experience for him and us all. No one should juge, life goes on….
July 21st, 2009 at 7:36 pm
Im pretty sure chris wusnt IKE’IN it all like that. i wudnt beat a bitch up unless i wus really gettin smashed on. yeaa he fucked up bt hes talented rite? all i kno is chris needa hit the studio and not hit the ladies. smack a bitch when needed dnt mollywop her. But 4real give that nigga captain crunch his shirt back
July 21st, 2009 at 8:24 pm
Funny I was wondering what was up with the shirt too. But honestly I think this was a Michael Jackson look.. Remember MJ did an apology wearing looks like the same color shirt CB has on? MJ and CB had the same attorney… Anyway I saw past the shirt, but his apology was sincere.. I have always and will continue to wish this young man well..
CB stay focused & prayed up. You see peoples true colors now, people more than likely was hating on you behind the scenes. God Bless Chris and his family… My heart goes out to Rhianna to because she seems like a lost soul. Being 1/2 naked in front of the cameras and clubbing it around married men, doesn’t mean she is healed, looks like she has some issues within she ’s covering up, Rhi needs to address her issues too or believe you and me her attitude and actions will roll over to the nex relationship if she doesn’t seek help alse. Everything happens for a reason God never puts nothing on you more than one can handle. I can almost gurantee Rhi will not have a steady healthy relationship with any man moving forward… She knows the truth about her behavior and until she deals with it or addresses it in private she will go through a cycle of men.
Off the Record…lol..lol. I really think she wants Jay Z… I really think she always wanted him he’s older and mature, but he now is married. I heard she was not invited to the wedding and she did not know about it. That is when her and Chris became closer, she reached out and tried to have her own relationship and Jay knew he couldn’t say much because Chris was a good kid and talented. Also how would that have looked Jay tryin to dictate her relationship with Chris, rumors was already flyin about them two and I hear MRS. Bey thought they were too close anyway.. So everyone keep watching, I won’t be surprised anything is possible I’m going tto leave it at that…
Peace~

YOU RAISE A VERY VALID POINT,THAT PEOPLE-SPECIFICALLY ADOLESCENT GIRLS-ARE WILLING TO LOOK OVER THIS VIOLENT INCIDENT DUE TO FEELING SOME SORT OF ATTRACTION TOWARDS CHRIS BROWN.
July 22nd, 2009 at 2:13 am
Chris apologized whether he read his apology or not. He is an experienced music writer who have won an award for writing musice, so there is no doubt he can write his feelings in an apology note. So what he read from a teleprompter, Obama has been speaking from a telepromter since he started his run for president and on to the White House. Everytime Obama speak there is a teleprompter. Chris did not have to apologize again to you ungrateful people. His real fans accepted his apology long time ago.
For those of you who think Rihanna was not the aggressor in the fight, go to TMZ site and lookup Rihanna or Chris Brown and locate the police report. TMZ stated that she struck first and several times. They got the picture and you know they got the police report, too. Read it. If you hit expect to get hit back, male or female.
July 22nd, 2009 at 10:22 am
dude i thought u were different..:(
am like trying to decide if u should be given a second chance or thrown in a dungeon am…….dungeon it is jk evry body deserves a second chance no matter Ur stature celeb or not
but damn u tore tht biitch up
July 22nd, 2009 at 10:41 am
throw his non-singing ass in jail
July 22nd, 2009 at 6:53 pm
Oh My you can’t please anyone. he has apologized, now what!!!! Come on people have forgiveness for goodness sake… He has pleaded guilty to something I’m sure he did not initiate, don’t make it right for his actions or hers, things escalated beyond their control, Chris and Rhi are both young and have a lot of maturing to do. He’s dam if he do he’s damed if he don’t.
CB keep your head up.. All the Nay Sayers can kick rocks. Stay focused and keep God first You are very talented keep the music coming I hope you perform at th MJ Tribute on August 29th you are the only one who can Kill a Michael Jackson Tribute Fo Real..Now that’s Real Talk

July 28th, 2009 at 12:14 pm
Chris made a mistake among many out of his whole life and just like with any mistake, you apologize. I think this experience has changed Chris Brown for the better. I’m not saying I would trust him as a boyfriend, but as a singer and artist I would. He has always made amazing music. I’ve been a fan and always will be a fan. I forgive you for making a mistake and so should all the people in this world who forget that they aren’t perfect! I don’t approve of you putting your hands on a female, but a mistake is a mistake.
