Akon Sorry for Trinidad Humping
After being dropped by Verizon, Akon (Aliaune Thiam) issued a public apology for the incident at the Zen nightclub in Trinidad where he simulated sex with an underage girl:
“First, and most important to me, I want to sincerely apologize for the embarrassment and any pain I’ve caused to the young woman who joined me on-stage, her family and the Trinidad community for the events at my concert in Port of Spain on April 12th. It was never my intention to embarrass or take advantage of my fans in any way, especially those under the age of 18. That is why we tried to make sure that the club did not admit anyone under 18 in the audience. Somehow, that standard was not met.”
The girl, age 14, is Danah Alleyne who uploaded the following photo to her MySpace account with the caption “girls nite out! best time!!”, according to TMZ:
If you want to see the video that sparked all this mess, Shout Mouth has it. It’s odd that a 14 year old girl claiming to be 15 years old would be admitted to a club where you should be at least 18 or 21 (I’m not sure which). Apparently they only checked ID in the VIP section. The long, conflicting, story can be read in it’s entirety at Hollywood Grind… whose name sounds like a really bad pun for a story like this.
On her MySpace page she claims to be 19. She certainly looks older than 14 to me:
After this, the pastor’s daughter probably won’t be going clubbing for a long time. Hopefully her parents have suitably grounded her and explained to her what rap stars like to do on stage.

She was def. up to something when she step on that stage and if you see the video she wasn’t trying to ressiste him like she claimed she did. Also Akon was wrong because maybe he should have check the girls first but .

i tink ix the gurlz fault because she is the one who came to a 18+ club/show . by doing that she put her self at risk. also the way she dress. is not suitible for a 14 year old. her dad is a pastor ?…… wo0w n she acts like dat. i think that it wasnt akons fault (not all ) but it was his fault if hes a muslim liek he claims i dunt noe y he was actin the way he was.?
young ppl shouldt be lieyn bout their age.. daz jsut palin stupid…!!!
