Rapper Chrisean Rock sued for alleged assault at Tamar Braxton show
A fight that allegedly broke out at a Tamar Braxton event has led to legal action against American rapper Chrisean Rock.
TV personality James Wright is suing Chrisean, according to TMZ. He claims she attacked him at a club event in November, causing many facial lacerations and two damaged teeth.
James Wright reportedly ended up in the hospital following Tamar’s gig in Downtown Los Angeles, as was previously reported.
Tamar talked about the alleged incident during an IG Live where she said Chrisean thought she was supposed to have a bigger role in the show and apparently became agitated when she was told that wasn’t the case.
In the suit, James who sang as backup for Tamar Braxton, said he told Rock she was supposed to only come onstage for the twerk portion at the end of the night. He said he told her she was not in the properly designated area and that’s when she allegedly hit him.
Wright claims Rock struck him several times using a hand with “large champion style rings” that caused the lacerations and broken teeth. He also claims she called him a homophobic slur in the aftermath of the alleged assault.
Wright said he was sent to the hospital and also had to consult with a dentist and plastic surgeon in the aftermath of the alleged incident.
He is now suing Chrisean for assault, battery, and emotional distress. He’s seeking compensation for his medical bills, among other damages.
