Concert security personnel dismissed the allegation following Akon's performance in Sochi.
In the vibrant city of Sochi, international music sensation Akon took the stage for an electrifying performance. However, the event was not without an unusual incident involving one of the security personnel, Iskander Cherkesov.
During the concert, a video captured by spectators shows Cherkesov, a security guard, being directed by the rapper. The video, now widely available on social media, depicts Akon straddling Cherkesov and slapping him in the face.
Cherkesov, in a recent statement, described the incident as happening "on autopilot" and mentioned that unexpected situations can occur at concerts. He also patiently endured Akon's improvisation during the performance.
Rumors emerged that Cherkesov was demanding a 10 million ruble compensation from Akon. However, these claims have not been substantiated by any verified information or credible sources. Cherkesov himself has denied these compensation claims and stated that he was asked if he wanted money for the incident, but he is not demanding it.
It is worth noting that Cherkesov's role during the concert was to bring the rapper to the barrier and take him back. In an act of kindness, he agreed to replace Akon's assistant during the concert.
The online reactions to the incident are divided. Some condemned Akon's behavior, considering it inappropriate, while others considered it part of the show. Cherkesov, on the other hand, stated that he would not have remembered the incident if the video hadn't gone viral.
The incident at Akon's Sochi concert, though surprising, serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of live performances and the importance of maintaining professionalism in all situations.
The video of the incident involving security guard Iskander Cherkesov during Akon's concert in Sochi is now widely circulating on social media, stirring up discussions about pop-culture and entertainment. Akon's unexpected behavior at the concert, as shown in the video, is causing divided opinions among online spectators.
