Sean Kingston "alleged sexual assault case"

Thursday, September 16, 2010

The alleged incident occurred Sunday night, at the Crowne Plaza hotel in Seattle. Sources tell us two women showed up for a party in one of the hotel rooms. Kingston was present.


Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the women were both intoxicated when they arrived, with bottles of vodka and beer in hand. We're told one of the women claims Kingston had sex with her, and, as one source says, "She was very aggressive." Kingston then left the party and went to another room on the same floor.

Sources say the woman then proceeded to have sex with two other men in the room.

The second woman, we're told, also had sex with someone in the room.

A hotel manager tells TMZ "an incident" did indeed occur in the hotel Sunday night, though he was not specific. The fire department tells us an ambulance was called and transported both women -- 19 and 20 years of age -- to a hospital where rape tests were conducted. We're told the women were also tested for Rufinol, but the results are not in.

Sources say Kingston, who is scheduled to perform tonight with Justin Bieber in Portland, was initially asked by cops to come in for an interview, but police have determined the case is not credible and they now say an interview is unnecessary.

We're told one of the women is going to file a civil lawsuit, and maybe both.

Sean Kingston debut performance at LIME Golf Academy

Thursday, January 14, 2010

In line with their heavy celebrity endorsed campaigns for Coke Zero, Coca Cola will be hosting an event in Jamaica. The high profile event scheduled for January 16, 2010 at the LIME Golf Academy, St. Andrew, will feature top Jamaican artists such as Etana, Ding Dong, Alaine, Tessanne Chin, G-Whizz, Demarco, Elephant Man, Tifa and Laden. Along with Coke Zero sponsored artist's, Chino, D'Angel and Serani.


Headlining the event will be international superstar Sean Kingston, performing for the first time in Kingston. The Ocho Rios native rose to international fame with his debut single, Beautiful Girls, in 2007. The single peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks, the UK Singles Chart and other international charts. Kingston later produced more hits with tracks such as Love Like This (alongside Natasha Beddingfield), Take You There, and more recently two chart-toppers, Fire Burning and Face Drop, both from his sophomore album Tomorrow, released in September 09.

Considering the looming recession and the completive social season with events such as Shaggy's charity fundraiser and the highly acclaimed Air Jamaica Jazz & Blues Festival around the corner, the Coke Zero team have devised a clever strategy to make the event accessible to almost everyone. Tickets are being made available to persons with the provision of three Coke Zero labels and a small fee of $100 JMD at any Burger King or Mother's restaurant.

Coca Cola's (Jamaica) manager, Chris Hardy stated: "Yes, only three Coke Zero labels and $100 JMD. Unbeatable value and it's all because Coke Zero has so much to be grateful for and we just want to say thanks to Jamaica for embracing the brand with open arms. We've embraced the culture and the country, and Jamaica has shown nothing but love to us."

Of the 10, 000 tickets printed for the January 16 event, a substantial amount has already been recouped by patrons since the advertisement hit the airwaves at the beginning of January.

SEAN KINGSTON WRITES FOR RIHANNA

Thursday, August 6, 2009

Sean Kingston has revealed he is writing songs for Rihanna's new album.

Sean Kingston is to give an "island feel" to Rihanna's next album.

The Jamaican 'Beautiful Girl' singer has been approached to pen tracks for the 'Umbrella' hitmaker's forthcoming LP because they are both from the Caribbean.

He said: "Me and my producer Yankee, we cooking up some stuff. Her people said they want some stuff for Rihanna because I'm from Jamaica. I got the island feel, so I'm writing some stuff right now for her new album."

The 'Fire Burning' hitmaker loves spending time with Rihanna and particularly admires the way she stays true to her Barbados roots.

He added to Rap-up.com: "You know what I like about her? She's never changed. Even when her music changed, she always represented for the Caribbean, always represented for Barbados and that's what Sean Kingston does. He represents for Jamaica. Anything I do, I always put Jamaica in there. You can't leave where you're coming from and I like that about her.

"Every time we see each other, we talk in our accent. She's funny. She's dope. I like her."

Sean Kingston: A Music Mix Q&A with the 'Fire'-starting singer

Thursday, July 16, 2009

We first met the then-17-year-old Sean Kingston in 2007, when the sweetly retro R&B-irie single "Beautiful Girls" became an inescapable Billboard-topping summer smash. Now 19, the Miami-born, Jamaican-bred singer has yet another chart blazer, "Fire Burning," and a new album, due in stores September 22.

Below, our Q&A with Kingston, who talks touring, sampling rock classics, and Gwen Stefani:

Entertainment Weekly: Hi, Sean. So let’s talk about your new album, Tomorrow -- not coming out tomorrow, but called "Tomorrow." The single “Fire Burning” is already at number seven on Billboard…
Sean Kingston: Number six!

EW: Oh, sorry! I stand corrected. Can you tell me a little about what makes this new album different than your debut?
SK: Honestly, just a lot of growth. I grew up since the last album, and I’m talking about things I didn’t talk about on the first one. You know, since my debut, I’ve been around the world, I learned a lot of stuff in the industry, and the melodies, the concepts of the songs, the producers... it's all new stuff.

EW: Well you’re definitely a ladies’ man when it comes to live performances – you’ve opened tours for Gwen Stefani and Beyonce in the last two years, two bona fide female superstars. Did you learn anything from them?
SK: Oh definitely, I learned a lot. Especially from Gwen, as far as performances, just giving a good show every single night -- she’s phenomenal. It’s way better to tour with women, it’s just more fun. It’s still, like, competition but it’s different, you know? It’s a blast.

EW: You’ve had two hits built on pretty famous samples, “Beautiful Girls” with Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me,” and “Me Love,” featuring Led Zeppelin’s “D’yer Maker." Are you going that same route on your new album?
SK: No, I didn’t really want to do that on this album, so I didn’t; everything’s original. You know, “Fire Burnin’” “Wrap You Around Me,” “Tomorrow” – all my singles are original music. It was just creativity and being in the studio, whatever worked, just vibing, and this time it didn’t really come up to sample anything.

EW: That’s fair! So you were born in Miami, but grew up mostly in Jamaica. Do you feel more American or Jamaican, musically?
SK: More Jamaican, probably, cuz I’m always around Jamaicans, I spent a lot of time down there -- it’s more home to me.

EW: You’ve had “Fire Burning" on the charts for a while, when will you be taking it on the road?
SK: I’m gonna be doing a lot of different stuff, be headlining my own tour for the House of Blues, performing, a full-city tour. We’re still figuring out right now who’s gonna open.

EW: You've done way more than most teenagers, but I'm guessing there's are still things you want that you haven't achieved ...
Sean: A Grammy! [laughs]. A Grammy. That’s where I’m at right now.
