Akon Throws a Fan Off Stage

Update 6/06/07: Police identify thrown concertgoer

Akon's got crazy stage etiquette. First he dirty dances with a 15-year-old girl during a show and now he's caught on tape tossing a fan into the crowd.

After an audience member throws something onto the stage, Akon asks his security guards to bring the kid to him. As Akon is waiting he says, "You made a big mistake today, boy."

Akon takes off his necklaces and tank top as if he's about to brawl and lifts the fan on stage like a rag doll. Then he picks him up over his head and throws him back into the crowd Hulk Hogan style. I can't tell if the kid thought it was funny or traumatized for life. It could be the coolest thing that ever happened to him or grounds for a lawsuit. You decide.

I have been to many concerts in my time...probably close to 30. When I was at Ozzfest last year, bottles of water could not be sold with the cap on, due to the fact that people would throw them on stage and injure the artists performing. This kid thorwing things at Akon was a fool who got what he deserved. It is people like him that ruin concerts for others. I think what Akon did is perfectly understandable, and he acted in a very human way. It is unfortunate that people got hurt, but they didn't seem to have a problem urging Akon to react. Sue him??? Oh...Hell no!!!!!! How about stop acting like fools!!!! As for the 14 yo in Trinidad, well, was Akon supposed to card the people getting into the club? I don't think it was his job. Blame THAT person!

I think his mom should sue the pants off Akon. WHat a punk. Just for knowing that he is such a disrespectful punk I'll never buy one of his CD's and I use to like hismusic But I refuse tolisten to anyone's music if I disrespect him or her.

That was good for that dumbass little kid. he shouldn't have thrown whatever that was at Akon. think about it...if you were walking down the street and some kid threw a bottle at you for no reason, just out of the blue, what would you do? you'd confront him, and possibly whoop his ass. so why shouldn't Akon do the same? You mean to tell me just because he's a celebrity, that he doesn't have the right to defend himself, or retaliate against someone attacking him? the boy got what he deserved. do fuck with a man, unless you're ready to get your ass whipped like one. the kid was just dumb. as for the 15 year old girl...i saw that girl, she damn sure didn't look 15. he should have checked her I.D. first. Anybody could have made that mistake though. the girl looked old.

Akon should sue all of you for badmouthing him for things that should be done. i'm sorry, but the 15 year old girl's parents can't sue, because she was in a 21 and older club :) and if someone would throw something at you, they would have no respect, so why would you have respect for that person. this is not my opinion, this is what i know is right. and don't even think i'm doing it cause im on akon's side, cuz i dont even like his music.
