Akon accused of molesting a 14 year old on stage.

I think of Jessica Simpson's father, Joe, who used to be a preacher.

the video is erm... strange
i obviously wasn't there but seems like such a odd thing to do

 

[Beauty Mark]

He scares me with how he comments on Jessica's breasts. Somehow, I can't dislike her too much if she turned out half okay being raised by that man.

No, I'm saying typical club girls do what she's doing and more.

I dont consider grinding up on someone a sex act. Be she backing up on him, or straddling him. As long as they have all their clothing on, it's just a tease.

If he had his fingers down her pants up up her skirt, it would be different.

You should break the rules once in a while babe. Take the screen off your window and sneak out with some friends, dress a little bit naughty now and again. It's fun ;p You dont have to walk the line 100% of the time to turn out to be a perfectly productive responsible adult.

Been there, done that and much more, babe. I just had no desire to do such things in middle/high school. I was a tomboy, so it really never appealed to me.

Regardless of what she was wearing and regardless of her age, his actions were crass. But that's no surprise to me. It's just a visual representation of the garbage he spews. Blechh....I can't stand Akon.

 

[MiCHiE]

^Right. And, besides that, there's no reason for a grown ass man to be flopping around like a fish out of water. Only a 14 YO would find that attractive.

 

[aziza]

Anyhoo, if I had of done some mess like she did, my Trinidadian mother would have beat me down. West Indian parents don't play

 

[sabn786]

i def did not look like that when i was 14 an that was only 5 years agoo!! damn..girls these days..craziness!!

 

[Urbana]

thats a bit crazy. the girl sure is happy to do it, and i bet she told everyone what akon did to her.
i really dont like akon, but in this case...

 

[Raerae]

He just lost all his contracts with Verizon.

They pulled all his ring tones, pics, phones, etc... In response to this story.

Go Verizon. LOL. So glad their my phone carrier.

 

[CaraAmericana]

I might get some slack for this but, I don't think he should have lost his contracts and be in trouble for this single occurrence. It was a concert in a club right? where there are suppose to be rules right? If you ask me, security is should be in trouble for letting on under-ager in. And whether Akon is crude or lewd, people wanted to see him so obviously he has fans in Trinidad. And I was looking at some personal pics of her from like May of 2006 when she was like 13 then and there is one where is looks like she taking a pic of herself topless. I just have no tolerence for fast little girls who think they are grown and cry victim to daddy later. I'm done = )

 

[Beauty Mark]

The club was supposed to be 18+. She snuck in somehow.

I don't think she is crying victim. Someone upthread said the father had no qualms about what she did until the media made a big deal out of it.

I'm disturbed that people are emphasizing her age on this one. Sure, that's a factor, but in what world is it okay for anyone to throw around another person like that without prior consent? I don't care if she's 14 or 40; it just isn't cool.

 

[MiCHiE]

I made that same statement to a friend. When I go to a music concert (of all places), I DO NOT want to see simulated sex. Volunteer or not, it's in poor taste, but not unexpected from someone who sings "I Wanna F*ck You". And, the age thing....It's the same as the R. Kelly case(s). As a 14YO, she had no business there, but since when is it OK to take advantage of women (of any age) because they're "hot to trot"?

 

[DevinGirl]

Wow. I just saw the video & read the article. I had seen the one w/ him & Tara Reid. It seems that Akon likes to get a bit 'physical' when he dances w/ the ladies on stage. I think young girls who have all of these hormones buzzing around everywhere & these full-blown woman bodies...get wrapped up in trying to be these sexual beings. Their minds are still those of young girls, mind you & when the two collide, especially at a concert, on a stage, with someone like Akon, in front of a bunch of people...craziness can & probably will ensue.

Getting dry humped by Akon isn't my thing, but when I hit the clubs I was all about it. I'm sure for the most part, for her - it was hella exciting. Of course when the whole world can see it, parents-included...well then of course you're ashamed - NOW. I think she just got in way over her head...Akon didn't know her age, so when he seems someone dressed sexily & willing enough to straddle him - he probably thought all systems go. I'm not trying to defend him as I think he's mega icky - but is molesting the right word? No, I don't think so. However during that video...if she were uncomfortable it's not like she could have pulled herself away, that man had her ALL OVER that stage. Pretty f-ing intense. Ahhh, I dunno. If she was underage she shouldn't have been allowed in the club. Period.

Maybe now she'll realize that while you should never be treated a certain way b/c of your appearance - this is the real world, where you will be. And grown men can act a certain way that she might not be ready for, so she needs to avoid putting herself in sticky (ew, haha) situations. Now men behaving that way doesn't make it right or fair if it's unwarranted. You still have a responsibility to yourself to realize that a lot of shit's not fair but to still be safe. I've snuck out of the house looking decent & changed into some hooch gear after. It wasn't my parents' fault. Kids can be sneaky as hell. The world's a crazy crazy place. That's my story & I'm sticking to it!

 

[astronaut]

I'm a VERY conservative person. And this coming from someone who's a feminazi and gets disturbed even with kissing in public. I believe that stuff to be intimate and private. I think that's plain nasty. I nearly puked when I saw that video. I felt like I was basically watching sex on my computer screen. He's throwing her around like a rag doll and what disturbs me the most is that there are people around, it's public. I don't want to see that shit! I don't care what age the girl is. I'd still think it's nasty, disturbing, and wrong even if it was a 25 year old. Her being 14 is the sprinkling on top.

[Beauty Mark]

I think people wouldn't have even cared if she were 18 instead of 14

Akon's probably done the same thrashing around before on stage.

Your right, they wouldn't have.
