Akon sexually assaults girl at Trinidad concert.

[gtikid]

Then I guess you have comprehension defecits because I was clear in that I buy music, I bought his last album plus others that have HIM in it, and I certainly have a problem with what he did. Am I gonna lose sleep over it? Hell no. Am I going to picket him and boycott him? Hell no. Do I think it was cool what he did?? Big HELL no.

Speak for yourself when you talk about comprehension defecits. Your the one who can't seem to understand that I am not saying him dry humping a girl on stage is cool. If that's what he wants to do, let him be. Would I ever do that? Shit no. But that doesn't mean i'm not gonna be like damn man that's fucked up. Hey maybe thats not our thing but it's his.

Yall keep bringing up clubs like it's the same thing. It's not.

I could care less if Akon wanted to pull his pecker out and jizz all over the front row during his concert. That's his business. But he also has to man up and realize that when he jizzes all over the front row it may make HIM feel better but it may piss off someone else. So now, I ask you again to use logic. WHO has MORE to lose by jizzing on the front row??? Akon with his millions or someone on the front row looking to get paid???? DUHHHH.

The question then is: WHO is the bigger dumbass in that situation??? The person wanting to get paid or the millionaire celebrity that was stupid enough to put himself IN that situation in the first place??? I know the answer, do you?

It is the samething. What happens when you go to a club? You listen to music and do whatever it is you do. What happens when you go to a concert? The samething except that the music you are listening to is live. I bet you Akon would be doing the samething at a club, even if he wasn't a star/millionaire. Now, jizzing on the front row is just gross I'm pretty sure I can speak for everyone by saying that it would piss everyone off. But he didn't jizz on anybody. Your not comparing red apples with red apples. Your comparing red apples to green apples. Almost the samething, but not quite

I guess the laugh's on you now that you've found out he was making bank with Verizon and may lose it, huh?

No, not really. Did you forget about Convict Records? Verizon isn't gonna be what's making him all the money. Wow, he might of had his picture on their website. I can guarantee the main reason Verizon sponsored his tour was to get their name out to the public and to benefit themselves and to sell more phones

Yes, by defending his actions that's exactly what you are implying.

No, it's just that you hear too much about people trying to take advantage of artists and athletes. How would you like it if, for example, you were a multi-millionaire and your son who is, let's say, 18, is going out with a girl who is 17 and lives with a middle class family and they have sex, her parents find out, and they try sueing you for it? I imagine you'd be very excited about it and punish your kid for doing what every other kid is doing. And then you'd be super happy to pay up

If they have in those mosh pits girls from the age of 0 to 200 that are getting hurt unnecessarily, then I'd say absolutely the same thing. I'd say the band was a bunch of retards for letting it happen. I'd say that the people hurting the women were retarded. I'd say that if they had sponsors endorsing them they'd probably need to re-evaluate their position. Yes, I damn well would say the exact same thing IF the situation was the same where a female was being man handled unnecessarily and the "artist" was stupid enough to let it happen.

BUT, you what if the girls intentionally put themselves into the mosh pit, kinda like how the girl, intentionally got on stage? If those girls got substantially hurt, who's fault would it be?

I'm not bashing anyone for being a millionaire. I'm bashing you, him, and anyone else who supports ANYONE (including millionaires) that is so obviously stupid as to place themselves in the line of fire and then complaining about it. So you're right, they can do anything the damn well please, but they also can deal with the consequences. Don't manhandle some young girl up on stage to get your rocks off and then puss out and say it was ALL her fault.

It wasn't manhandling. Sorry you haven't been to the clubs in a while, but you see that type of shit EVERYWHERE. Believe me, I saw Akon at a concert myself, 1 week before this incident happened, when he was in South Padre, Texas for Spring Break . And once again you bring up the fact that she was a young girl. How in the hell was he supposed to know? You really can't blame him for that. And you know you don't want to blame him for that, b/c in reality, he had no way of knowing how old she was. But I understand why you keep bringing it up, b/c if he had known she was 14 and still went along with it, then yes, that would of been a really bad situation.

I said before, that says more about you and his supporters than it does about him. He's got an excuse, what's yours?

And you're wrong again....when he loses his Verizon contract......do you think ALL the execs listen to Akon's music or buy it? Doubt it. Do they have a chance to screw up his life??? Yep. Same with that young girl. Does it matter if she ever buys another Akon record? No. Can she make his life a PITA??? Absolutely. Which is more important now???

You have the same mentality that most "artists" have. "Ima eat today while I can and fuck the rest of yall and fuck the future...." Well, fine, do what you want and screw up your own future earnings. Very smart. Good for you. Music is cyclical. It comes and it goes. What's hot today is old school tomm. You may be able to pack a stadium today, but what about tomm? Look at Michael Jackson. He can't even be on a Cracker Jack box now. Multi, Multi, Multi millionaire before he started screwing up his own life by making poor decisions that impacted his career and all but ended it. The "King of Pop" wasn't he? Just yesterday he could do no wrong. Just yesterday he was sitting on top of the world with everything and everybody at his beck and call. Now....what is he??? Butt of jokes, a freak, a loner.....why??? Because of BAD choices he made.

What would I need an excuse for? I'm not gonna dry hump some girl at a concert or a club. But that's no reason for me to call the authorities when I see someone doing it.

So the Verizon execs are really gonna mess up his life? I guarantee you they could give 2 shits about him too. They'll just move on and look for someone else. Why would they spend the companies time and money on Akon? As far as the girl making Akon's life a PITA, look at the girl that tried to sue Kobe. What happened to that girl as soon as the media found out all the facts? The girl never even showed her face and as soon as the multiple semen samples were found, she shut up, and quit bitching about the whole situation, and took whatever was offered.

Exactly, the music industry is a cyclical cycle. They can get be replaced the next day at any minute, so why not go out and enjoy it while you can, because in the end, your going to be replaced anyway

If you honestly think that I could ever run out of things to say, you haven't been reading my posts very well.

Then don't try to answer to something by saying BS

You don't know shit about me my friend. I was buying records when they were real records, vinyl. I may not be hardcore into listening to that genre of music, but I'm far from a newbie at the game. Matter of fact, I did a photoshoot with Lil' Jon just this past week. I guess he's not hardcore either. How bout Yung Joc? Jazee Pha? I've been lucky enough to have dealt with all of them one-on-one and learned quite a few things I must admit. So, don't sit there all smug because you have a bigger rap and R&B CD collection than me that I some how don't know shit about "the scene". I know enough to form an opinion. I know enough to be a consumer. That's dangerous enough aint it. So if Akon don't give a shit about my opinion, cool no skin off my back.

So now name-dropping is gonna make you seem like a more reliable source? Is this gonna turn into a I know, you know discussion? We can go on all day talking about who we've met, is that gonna change anything?

A little???

Haha, I meant that in a very sensitive way

Did MJ's career go up or down due to controversy? Answer that and then tell me again just who's crazy.

MJ's career was already over before the whole children thing happened, we all know that.

You have that mentality. So do the majority of entertainers.

So why is it that you would put YOURSELF into a situation where you are caught with your pants down IF by your admission you KNOW what they're trying to do????? Who's the real idiot in that situation then????

Again, you can justify all their bad choices from here to eternity....doesn't change the FACT that they are BAD CHOICES and THEY had some control over it the majority of the time. Who's the bigger fool? The one trying to get one over on you, or YOU for letting them when you KNOW they're trying???? Answer that.

Quit justifying this guy's idiocy. He just put himself in a position where HE could get hurt. He's an the idiot then. Bigger than the girl, bigger than her sneaking in under age, bigger than her parents not keeping tabs. All have a part in it, but HE is the biggest one. BUT FOR THE FACT that he acted like a dog in heat up on stage, this would not be happening....right or wrong? So then, who should hold more responsability. He would not be in the position he's in had he chosen one of his dancers, who he's probably doing anyway, to dry hump all over the stage. Think about it....all of this over a dry freaking hump. I hope she was worth it. I hated dry humping, so I don't see what he sees in it anyway......

Yes a lot of people have the same mentality that people are always out trying to screw artists and athletes over. Why? Because it's been proven over and over again. It happens waaaaaaaay too much. It's not just a rare event. Akon didn't make a BAD CHOICE. He made a choice, that ended up turning bad. Get the difference?

It's not defending his idiocity. I guarantee you if he had done this with a girl over age, it wouldn't of been nearly as bad, especially if the over age girl hadn't pressed charges. Hell if he had done this with an 18+ girl, you would of probably never heard of it. And the fact that she's 14 WOULD change things, ONLY IF he had known her age. She was somewhere she wasn't supposed to be, where only adults are at, and everyone here can agree that she looks nowhere NEAR 14.

If I go to a strip club, and I toss a girl a $20 and she lets me slap her on the ass, then I get arrested b/c it turns out that the girl had given the strip club a fake age and was only 16, who's to punish? Sure as fuck not me, i'm at a strip club where everyone has to be 21+

You see all types of shit happen at concerts. Like the one guy who said Destiny Child gave some dude a lap dance. Why didn't the media make a big deal about it, especially since they were supposed to be so innocent? B/c it really isn't a big deal, until someone wants to get rich off of someone else's wealth

[Turbo04]

Did you watch the same video as everyone else? The girl WAS trying to get away and stop. He had her pinned down. Like you said your not comparing red apples to red apples with the DC concert lap dance thing. So your saying the if a girl gets on stage at a concert of akons or someone like him she should expect him to do whatever he feels like with her and that should be ok? I'm sorry but thats crap. even in your strip club situtaion, there are certain rules and ettiquet (sp) that are enforced and followed with regards to the girls. If pinning a girl down and humping her won't fly there (in a truly sexual enviorment) why in the world is it acceptable at a concert like that? Akon made a bad choice, and as it was stated earlier the fact that she was underage compounded the mistake. Yes he could not have known she was underage, but at the end of the day doing that to even and adult is unacceptable and should not be tolerated.

[aaronfelipe]

I would let Akon do that to me

[disrupt]

LOL! Akons Mormon!

muslim = harem.

Look, let's just agree to disagree. I see it totally different than you guys that are defending him.

The way I see it is simple; I earned it, I'm going to do everything in my power NOT to lose it. If I take unnecessary risks and it costs me, I can only blame ONE person really because ultimately that's the only person you truly have any control over.

So therefore, I don't care if the girl was 14 or 24...he was not using his noodle when he decided to dry hump her like a drunk gorilla. If he wants to take that unnecessary risk to lose what he's earned, then it's his to lose.

if shes old enough to cross the street, shes old enough to get hit

Look, let's just agree to disagree. I see it totally different than you guys that are defending him.
