I believe him but I also believe he needs to keep working on himself.. I don't see it as a free pass to do some of the stupid shit he has done. He's incredibly talented, no doubt about it but with that there comes social responsibility which he needs to work on.
This comes as a surprise to no one.
Remember he said it on Saturday Night Live. Thus it's of doubtful validity.
Next up, the real deal: he admits his narcissism and sociopathy.
