 04/09/2008 Imagine if someone threw a Frisbee at your face. Repeatedly! Let’s say that you’re a global RnB and Hip Hop star with a penchant for singing like Alvin and Simon and Theodore; you know, the cartoon chipmunks? Okay, okay, if you sung like that we can kind of understand why someone might throw a Frisbee at your face, but still, you’d be pretty pissed off about it wouldn't you?
Well that’s exactly what happened to Akon during a concert in Fishkill, New York last year. Some guy, described by news sources as a ‘boy’, decided that he’d throw a Frisbee at Akon’s face over and over and over again. So Akon decides to grab the ‘boy’, lift him onto the stage and then, and I quote: Toss him off!!!
The ‘boy’ landed on a female concertgoer who claims she suffered a concussion. Probably one of those people who don’t work and try and win like, a million dollars for tripping on a slug or falling off a stone or something. Anyway, according to the Associated Press, Akon has asked for a jury trial in Fishkill Town Court after pleading not guilty to charges. These include misdemeanor charges of endangering the welfare of a minor and second-degree harassment.
Akon the Chipmunk is no stranger to controversy. In the infamous ‘Trinidad and Tobago’ incident, the singer simulated sex with a preacher’s fifteen year-old girl. He was also found in possession of a gun in 1998. Anyway, check out the infamous tossing off a ‘boy’ incident below:
