After facing a $5 million lawsuit sent his way by a 22 year old who claimed she had been sexually abused by he and his entourage, Pop singer Sean Kingston has opted to avoid a trial by settling out court.
Full story below…
Settled three years after the alleged incident- which is explained in full here– took place, the case’s allegations saw Sean maintain his innocence and acknowledge that while he did have consensual sex with the then 19 year old, he- nor his camp- were guilty of rape.
Unfortunately for him, despite the lawsuit set to be shortly dismissed and members of his team informing TMZ that his supposed victim was only paid a fraction of the amount she requested, the University of Western Ontario stand as one of many who aren’t as convinced by the performer as he’d like them to be.
For, after enlisting him to perform at the University as part of their Orientation Week on September 7th, they have now cut ties with him- explaining:
“Having Mr. Kingston perform could cloud the values surrounding O-Week. The University of Western Ontario has zero tolerance for sexual assault.”
It should be noted that Kingston’s settlement is not an admission of guilt, and has cited the time he needs to complete and launch a new album and a new tour as his grounds for avoiding the November trial, despite members of his camp informing ‘TMZ’ that he believed he would have won the case if he had been forced to prove his innocence in court.

I call b*******.
1. His people are the ones saying he only paid her a little.
2. His people are the ones saying he thinks he would have done.
He obvs paid her the full amount because she wouldn’t have accepted any less if all she had to do was go to court in two months and get whatever she was asking for.
Whatever he paid her must have been pretty big for her to decide not to go forward with the case, so that lie about it being a fraction can stop right there.
Second of all, if he was so sure he would have won he would have gone to court, and it’s that simple. Nobody pays out millions to someone lying about them to promote a new album if they think they can prove the person is 100% lying.
Your career is dead now Sean. You shoulda thought twice before putting hands on a drunk girl.
Hmm just Like Michael Jackson pay before you go to JAIL not a Fan of a R***** ~ Sean Kingston or His Crew ~ R.Kelly ~ none of them get my FUNDZ IT’S SAD NOWADAYS FOLKS HAVE A COUPLE DOLLARS & GET AWAY WITH R***? That’s oh so sad!!
Liar liar pants on fire.
Just no, you know your ass gave her 5 milli so stop lying. You made a mistake and now your ass is paying for it.
My n****, you know your ass should have gone to that courtroom and proved her wrong. Come on man, how we supposed to be out here defending you when you make it so obvious that some funny s*** did go down.
I be saying though.
Not everyone who settles out of court is guilty but I am suspicious of Sean now. Whoever told Tmz he was sure he would win the case did him a great disservice, because if he was so sure he would win wouldn’t he have just gone and won.
The worst part is that if he doesn’t promote his new album like crazy everybody will know he was lying because he said he wanted to pay her off so he could promote it.
Sean your guilty f*** outta here you sick piece of s*** smh.
It’s the University of Western Ontario or Western University. Former student.
If your innocent why not fight & prove you are why tf would you give up now in my eyes you look f****** guilty I will never support you again.
If someone accused me of something, and I had proof they were lying I would be HAPPY to go to court so I could clear my name and save my career. I wouldn’t pay them off quietly to promote some album I know I’m actually not going to promote.
Exactly
Just seeing his fat ugly face makes me wanna vomit now,
I honestly don’t think he meant to r*** her BUT i do think he was stupid to even think it was ok to try and have s** with someone who was clearly wasted. Because of that he did abuse her against her will because it’s not like she could have said no even if she wanted to.
Also, why would her friend have to go in the room and rescue her if she wasn’t being attacked and if she was lying why would she call the police so quickly. Are we expected to believe that between the time she got out of the room and went to hospital she cooked up this lie JUST to get money out of him.
Let this be a lesson to everyone. DRUNK OR HIGH PEOPLE SHOULD NOT BE TOUCHED.
I’m sorry, but it takes a certain kind of man to want to sleep with a woman who is so drunk she isn’t even able to say yes or no. That s*** is f***** up and damn nasty.
I wish these girls who hang around celebrities would understand the danger they put themselves in when they agree to go back to these hotels rooms with these bodyguards. That scene out of Showgirls is real in the streets and it does happen.
So essentially we do not know what happened but the damage has already been done. I a guessing Sean’s people advised him to settle outside of court to minimize the damage and not draw more media attention to the issue, but alas the damage has already been done.
Sean does not need this kind of press, especially following the album release.
I am not entirely convinced the girl was r****, but then whether it was consensual or not is difficult to prove considering it is Sean’s word against hers. Her story is not entirely convincing at all and I do believe Sean would have won the case, but to let the story die out before the release of an album is probably the best course of action. Good luck buddy, issues like this never die easily (see R. Kelly, Michael Jackson).
She atleast got 3 million.. Smh thats alot of money to be giving out to someone who supposed to be lying.. Aint no one buying that album fat boy your career is officially over. If someone was lying on me like that I would prove my innocent until the wheels fall off, f*** tryna sell & promote an album this is your reputation going down the drain.
Sean my dear, whoever told you not to go court knows you were lying and that’s why they gave you that advice.
I love MJ but it’s the exact same thing. You either did it or you didn’t and when what you’re being accused of is so particular, it should be EASY to prove your innocence if everything was above board.
Why was she treated for injuries consistent with r*** if she was lying. Yeah I know those injuries can come from having consensual rough s** BUT if that’s true, why were THREE men having rough s** with a drunk girl.
Better yet, why was a drunk girl invited to his room anyway. Is it because his bodyguard knew she would haven’t slept with Sean if she was sober?
Preach!
Guys who intentionally try and get with drunk girls are the worst! Like for real, you deadass need a girl to be half way out of her mind before you get her to let you hit?
INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY…..
Too bad he pussied out before he could proved innocent.
He looks guilty now, he didn’t even try to prove his innocence dumb ass.
This is the same reason I stopped supporting MJ.
Some cases are hard to prove even if you’re innocent, but if you had been behaving APPROPRIATELY the lines wouldn’t have been blurred to give someone the chance to say you did something that you didn’t.
I have no respect for you Sean. Just sad you have to take advantage of a girl who was drunk & high smh that makes me sick to think people are really f***** up that they would do that.. You belong in jail you fat b****** .
There’s nothing that when a guy and girl get together and the girl says she was r**** because she regrets what she does.
It’s a tough pill to swallow but sometimes that does happen but I don’t think that’s what happened here. I think whoever took her to his room did it because they knew she was drunk and high and that’s what’s so unsettling to me.
I get that sometimes paying the person off is easier, but stuff like this never dies down so if you can prove that your innocent push the album back and prove it. Don’t sit here and act like your label is putting pressure on you to put it out when you know you never sell anything anyway.
So sure that you’re innocent that you couldn’t wait 8 weeks to prove it. Yeah Sean, nothing suspicious about that (!)
How do yall even know if he did it tho! LOOKS GUILTY.. Don’t mean he actually r**** somebody. This story if weird & fishy. I don’t think his fat ass r**** nobody. Especially since there is no evidence that proves he r**** somebody. If he did do it then his fat ass needs to die. *KANYE SHRUGS* *Goes Back To Sleep & I Only Woke Up To Eat Some More Blueberry Muffins Mmmmmmmmm
Who is checking for that one hit wonder anyway? Yeah, no one!!!
Ewww!!! GROSS!!!!
Innocent people don’t settle, innocent people fight.
If it was truly consensual s** there wouldn’t be enough evidence for this girl to hold up to sue him with, especially enough to get him to opt out of going to court and instead pay her off quietly under the table.
I can believe it. Like I said before these men true colors always comes out. Breezy was Mr. Innocent before photos of Rihanna’s face surfaced. Bieber was a good boy before all his random tricks started blabbing his details.
P.S.
His career was already pretty much dead before this incident, I hope he has another career plan because McDonald’s isn’t going to hire that fat belly.
