MONDAY MORNING UPDATE: Joseph Carozza, Sean Kingston’s publicist, has issued the following statement: “Sean Kingston is now stabilized and has moved from the trauma unit to ICU. Sean’s family thanks everyone for their prayers and support during this time.” Miami’s Local10.com reported that as of Sunday night, Sean Kingston was in serious condition following a Jet Ski accident during a visit to the city, with no information available on the extent of his injuries. The TV station’s Website also reported Kingston’s passenger on the personal watercraft was said to be alert and talking to investigators.
ORIGINAL POST: Singer Sean Kingston was injured Sunday in an accident, his publicist confirms to EW. Further details were not provided in the brief statement made available by his rep, but a source told CNN that Kingston (real name Kisean Anderson) was injured in a Jet Ski accident and taken to a Florida trauma center Sunday evening. His current condition was not given.
The watercraft apparently crashed when it went under a small bridge about 6 p.m., injuring the singer and a female passenger. Officials were still investigating the cause.
“Sean Kingston was in a accident today. No further details are available at the moment. He and his family thank everyone for the well wishes,” his rep’s statement said.
first! hope he’s okay, dutty love is a catchy song. im sure hell pull through he’s a big dude and im sure hes tough enough
Who is Sean Kingston? Never heard of this dude.
But I really, really hope the bridge is OKAY. Bridges are extremely important as they get us from point A to B. Please everyone, pray for the bridge. And the jet ski.
I think he won american idol few years back
He’s a performer who had started out in the “Disney” bracket a few years ago
I like how you put Disney in quoations. I think you meant “Disney bracket”. Seriously, dude, did you learn anything in school?
Ignore the fact that I misspelled “quotations”. > >
Certainly. I will not judge you.
I like how Grammar Police fails to put “Disney” in quotes–which is necessary because he’s singling out a word or phrase–in a post in which he needles someone about poor quotation mechanics.
I also like how he decided to go with the name “Grammar Police” for the post when the issue he brings up has absolutely nothing to do with grammar. (It’s mechanics.)
I also like how he doesn’t know that terminal punctuation, unless it’s inflective (i.e., a question mark or exclamation point) goes inside of the quotes. (If he happens to be British, or just an Anglophile, I’ll rescind my critique.)
So it’s possible that he, too, didn’t learn anything in school. Another possibility, I guess, is that he learned plenty, but that this was offset by the fact that he went to a really crappy school.
That is so disrespectful to Mr. Anderson aka Sea Kingston and his family. although you are untitled to you opinion, this is no joke, your humor is poorly timed and tasteless. Your post should be removed immediately.
hhahahahah yea i agree with the bridge argument and i join you in the prayer for the bridge :’(
Jet ski crash? Did he crash the jet ski while trying to sit on it?
Who are you but a douche bag for making such a comment at someone’s inurys- good to know some americans are exactly what the world says you are- disgusting
ANYONE EVER SEE THIS DUDE’S ‘SUPER SWEET 16′ EPISODE? It’s some funny shiz. He rides up to the party on a jet-ski and when him and his crew get to the dock, it SINKS. He then has to swim to shore. Their Jamaican accents are everywhere, it’s pandemonium, and he has the absolute most tame and tasteful Sweet 16 I’ve ever seen. I just realized he’s always on a jet-ski in my mind… memories.
Did you guys know how many boating accidents happen on memorial day? It’s in incredible.
Such a complete idiot!!!
Realliee ,, yu need t2 shut up ,, heess injured very badly , hom does aa jet skii && t2w peoplee break aa bridgee ,, think ,, thtt couldaa been yu && yur talkinqg abtt smee point a to point b ,, wouldnt bee sayinqg thtt if thtt wass yu ,.!
charlie you’re a moron.
This was almost certainly a Wave Runner crash and not a Jet Ski crash as is reported above. Very poor journalism here.
black comedians will have a field day
And let’s be honest, some white ones too. All inclusive joke here.
why are there no asian comedians?
@Jing : there are, but they obviously give out only the bare minimum of jokes. It’s genetic *zing*
What can I say…monkeys will be monkeys.
I hope he dies for his crimes against music.
A person who says something like that needs to find GOD.
not unless god finds him first
God doesn’t exist, you religious wacko nutjobs. All your prayers are for nothing. But keep believing it, your gullible self can’t do otherwise.
@beaverpounder: Who are you to say what exists and what doesn’t?
@caps Why don’t you ask yourself the same question? Why should anyone believe in your God?
As for SK, should’ve kept his big whiny ass on land. C’mon son! Its the ocean!?! And you hit a bridge?! Gtfo…
@ P2Clinc…..Uhm…caps NEVER said he believed in God….He or she merely posed the question. It is you ASSUMING that this question meant caps believes in God. All types of religious beliefs are based on faith and I see no harm in believing in a God.
thats cruel.
i hope YOU die for your insensitive comments against humanity.
Well said, CJ. Maybe that fat f**k can lose some weight as well.
I’m sure your wh0re mother was proud to push you out of her f*cked up kooch!
Poor jet ski.
SOMEBODY CALL NAAAN-1-1
Gus, that was the funniest thing on this thread. By far
I don’t agree with making fun of the guy, but seriously…that is funny! LOL
Gus that is just so wrong… yet so funny I burst out laughing. Feel better SK.
ain’t going near water no way
I hope he’ll be okay! :’(
He was feeling suicidal, suicidal…
You, sir, win the internet.
HAHAHA Must have been that beautiful girl he had with him lmao
you know what CJ what if he did die? thats not funny to say while i’m not a fan of his music, saying you wished he would die for that make’s you a sick horrible person.
its like they just dont care
What a bunch of animals!
Some of u ppl on here are just idiots have some respect i hope he pulls through and him and fam have my blessings
Is this the american kid who won the american idol couple year ago?
No. But he does look like a fat black lesbian.
never get off the boat. good line from good american movie. sheen..
You mean queen latifah? Haha
Belks: Most of the comments on here are crude. Yours, however, is spot on! TOO FUNNY. Lets hope both of them recover….
These comments are so wrong, yet I couldn’t help but to burst out laughing.
It makes me sick some of the comments on here.
I agree! I wish ew.com had a way to flag inappropriate comments for review. These comments make me sad for humanity!
Also my thoughs and prayers are with Sean and the injured girl and their family and friends!
They do. At the end where the disclaimers are there is a email us link . Please send it the more people who complain the better
I agree, Nick, I don’t know his music, but it’s sad that he is injured and all people can do is make jokes about it!
you never get me on one of those things
Do you mean a black guy?
Wish him quick recovery though had poor show in Zimbabwe
that no matter he go get them next time
It’s a disgrace that more than half the comments on here are disrespectful, racist and outright childish. Is no wonder this world is coming to an end.
*Sean Kingston, your in my prayers.
Obviously, you believe in “God”, that why you’re praying. But here is the dilemma: God is all powerful and all knowing. That means Sean Kingston’s crash happened under “God’s” watch. So essentially, you are praying to “God” to help Sean Kingston recover, even though “God” is the one who put him in that state (Made the accident happen).
Hope you can see the dilemma. Prayer does nothing. Science and medicine is helping him, NOT “God”.
Kelos, very well said!!!!
There is no dilema. For those who believe it centers around faith in that which cannot be seen, free will and consequences to choice. Sometimes children have fall down to learn the ground is hard…..
Here’s what mystefies me though, those who rely on the combination of science and their wits generally don’t go with the nicety of capitalizing God’s name. And yet you do, consistently. Interesting little dichotomy there….
You make a valid point BUT there’s also evil in this world. It didn’t cross your mind that maybe it was “evil” that did this to sean kingston?
and why is it that people automatically blame god for everything that happens in this world like evil doesn’t exist?
There is no need to attack mamma bear just because she said she will pray for Sean Kingston. No one is forcing you to share her beliefs.
There’s been reports he has died; your comments are not funny.
One less bad singer.
Idiot!
and one less Black person.
PRAYIN FOR YOU SEAN KINGSTON AND THE FAMILY
This happened under “God’s” watch. He knew this would happen and let it happen. Why would you pray to him.
Science and medicine saves lives, NOT prayer to a “God” who doesn’t exist except in the imagination.
You may not believe in God but you can’t tell everyone what to believe or who to pray to! And unless you are all knowing yourself, you really don’t know what’s helping him.
Kela, you are not very bright.
I agree with keya I believe that God know this was gonna but he gave sean a choice to either go ahead and ski but remember the punishments or just stay home and watch movies. Sean choice what sounded like fun and didnt think about the punishment. Know since he choice that decision he got hurt. Also medicine does cure you illness’ but God the one who makes them stop. Also I pray to God cause hes coming back for us christians.
They were just trying to say something nice about this kid who got in this jet ski accident. If they want to pray, let them pray. Why does that bother you so much?
I totally agree
wow i feel so sorry for san kingston in that accident
