Chris Brown admits he's not a crowd favourite

The 'Run It' singer - who was convicted of assaulting ex-girlfriend Rihanna and sentenced to five years probation, 12 months of domestic violence counselling and 180 days of community labour - admits many members of the public think he got off lightly and think he should have been handed a tougher sentence.

He said: "I know my love me and support me. But there are people that don't want to see me do anything ... they wanna see me kind of, basically, in jail."

Chris, 20, recently revealed he is still learning from his mistakes and is trying his best to make amends.

He said: "I'm human. If people feel a certain way, I'm not going to say they're wrong. But it's not right to judge somebody when people make mistakes all the time.

"I've learned from my mistakes and I'm learning from them. And I regret every moment, every second of it."

Chris has also admitted he is still not over 21-year-old Rihanna, and still has strong feelings for her.

He added: "We've been friends since I was like 15, we got serious when I was like 17.

"Feelings are feelings and they don't go away overnight, especially if you sit down and are like, 'Look, I'm going to really be in this relationship with you, whatever the case, past our busy schedules, past us being two of the biggest artists.' I really care about her."
