Miguel blazed the stage during his performance at the
2013 Billboard Music Awards until it all came crashing down, literally, when he
jumped across to another stage and leg dropped a young girl in the head. UCLA
student, Khyati Shah was on the receiving end of his miscalculation. Although
Shah did an immediate interview after the incident on the carpet next to
Miguel, the girl is reportedly suffering brain injuries and cognitive
difficulties. According to Huffington
Post, Shah’s lawyer, Vip Bhola, is claiming the singer has yet to offer up
any financial assistance and is inviting a lawsuit.
"They didn't rush her to the hospital," Bhola
said. "Instead they rushed a camera to her and an ice pack" and took
advantage of a "star-struck, dazed and injured person." When I read
this, I was a little thrown off because I watched an interview that Miguel did
with BBC Radio that contradicts what her lawyer claims about the star-struck
interview. Watch his BBC interview below.
I don’t think it’s fair to assume that he doesn’t plan on
offering assistance. I do believe he cares about her well being and hopefully
both parties can resolve it amicably.
Miguel is currently on tour with Alicia Keys in Europe.
What are your thoughts on her wanting to sue?
