“Beautiful Girls” singer Sean Kingston reportedly punched a Los Angeles music video director before pulling a gun on him, according to TMZ.
The producer who goes by the name GXDLIKE, says that he has been living with Kingston for around three months while working on projects together.
He said the assault happened at around 2:00 am on November 5, when the Jamaican singer called him downstairs into the basement to film something.
GXDLIKE told the artist that his phone died and a frustrated Kingston began punching him before dragging him down the hallway and pointing a gun at him.
The director alleges that Kingston left him with several bruises and cuts on his face and told him to pack his stuff and get out.
A source confirms that GXDLIKE filed a police report with the LAPD.
Despite being on a musical hiatus for eight years, Kingston, born Kisean Paul Anderson, has stayed in the headlines for his troubling behaviors.
In 2019, Kingston was caught on video being detained by police after someone reported that he was brandishing a hand gun at Dino’s Chicken & Burgers in Los Angeles.
The video shows police arriving on the scene and ordering Kingston and several other people out of their vehicle for questioning. They were eventually released. A bystander at the restaurant also alleges that Kingston’s car was blocking the exit out of the parking lot, upsetting customers who were trying to leave.
The singer also reportedly got angry and began throwing ice at the restaurant’s window.
