A Miguel lawsuit in the works? R&B singer Miguel might finally be getting the recognition he so deserves considering he’s one of the best things to happen to R&B in years, however, it’s not his music that’s been keeping him in the headlines as of late. Although he recently raised eyebrows for his Twitter rant about black people being too judgmental the other day, everyone is still talking about that infamous “leg drop” he did accidentally to a fan during his performance on the Billboard Music Awards. Unfortunately for Miguel, inviting the injured fan backstage, hugging, and apologizing to her may not be enough to keep her from suing the singer. According to E! News, she’s actually thinking about slapping Miguel with a lawsuit:
Khyati Shah—the audience member who was accidentally landed on by the singer during his performance at the Billboard Music Awards a few weeks back—is now “considering” legal action.
Shah’s attorney, Vip Bhola, tells E! News exclusively that a decision will be made soon on whether to file a lawsuit against Miguel pending Khyati’s most recent medical results. He noted that the fan has been experiencing “difficulties” as a result of the incident.
“We will determine that after we have feedback from medical providers,” Bhola told E! News, declining to give a timeline on when any civil action might be filed.
The attorney also added that he has not spoken to the performer’s legal representatives, but did leave open the possibility of a settlement.
Miguel hasn’t said anything yet regarding the potential lawsuit on his Twitter account, but something tells us he won’t be too shocked if a lawsuit does come into fruition. Most of us did see this coming.
He should at least pay her medical fees.
Haaaa! He’ll naw but I knew that was coming to theses AFRICAN AMERICAN ARTISTS HAVE NO CHANCE sum how they gone come up with a story that led to this
*grabs a drink* with eye brow raised*
I knew she was going to sue. Somebody told her to get the money while she can. LOL.
Damn. Oh well. Pay up Miguel.
She should sue. I mean he should at least pay her doctor bills.
She should sue. He hurt her but she had to pay her own doctor bills. Doesn’t make sense.
Good.
Has he been asked to pay any bills at this point? It sounds to me she wants some $$$, A lawsuit doesnt solve everything and clearly this was an accident. Im sure he will pay her medical bills, give her some concert tickets and gifts to settle this!
The whole situation still makes me laugh lol.
The only thing he owes her is doctor’s bills. It was an accident.
I’m not surprised.
Uh oh.
I’d sue too. LOL.
I agree he should pay her medical bills. But it was a freakin accident for crying out loud. Some people would do anything for some attention
I agree that he should pay for her medical bills but sue him?I think is a bit to much….this feels like someone wants to cash in and attention…SMH
Does this make her Judgemental? *ZING*
