To all my family, friends, and fans:
I am very sorry. I made a mistake last week, a mistake with no excuses. I want to be clear: getting in a car with anything to drink is wrong; it's dangerous; and it's unacceptable. My parents taught me that no matter how tough a situation is, you must take responsibility for your actions, and I will do that. Again, I am very sorry.
