Teairra Mari Apologizes For Drunk Driving, Denies Assaulting Police Officers

Teairra Mari Apologizes For Drunk Driving, Denies Assaulting Police Officers

Posted August 22, 2011

Singer and actress Teairra Mari has released a statement regarding her arrest last week for drunk driving in Beverly Hills. The 23-year-old adamantly denies "attacking" police officers and facing assault charges in conjunction with the DUI, which TMZ previously reported.

The Division 1 signee's full statement reads:

"Let me start by saying that this is a very embarrassing moment for me, I know that I’ve disappointed so many people including myself. I take full responsibility for my actions, but I absolutely did NOT “attack” a Beverly Hills police officer and I’m very confused by those allegations. I did have drinks and I misjudged the situation by driving myself home. I want to apologize to those that I endangered that night and also to the people that I’ve let down. I hope that this situation can save someone from making the dumb decision to drink and drive!"

It's clear that the former Roc-A-Fella princess is remorseful, and hopefully this incident won't be too much of a blemish on her waning music career.
