Sean Kingston was involved in a Jet Ski accident on Sunday.
Kingston (real name: Kisean Anderson) rose to fame with the single "Beautiful Girls" in 2007. The hit single, along with "My Love" and a collaboration with Phil Collins, were on His 2007 self-titled debut album. In 2009, the Jamaican-American singer released Tomorrow, a 14-song album which included collaborations with Wyclef Jean and Good Charlotte
The 21-year-old singer was driving the watercraft that apparently crashed when it went under a small bridge at about 6 p.m., CNN reported. A female passenger on board was also injured.
On Monday, Kingston's rep told reporters that: "Sean Kingston is now stabilized and has moved from the trauma unit to ICU. Sean's family thanks everyone for their prayers and support during this time."
Justin Bieber, who collaborated with Kingston on the song "Eenie Meenie," asked fans to keep his pal in their thoughts. "I've got my friend Sean Kingston in my prayers tonight," he tweeted Sunday evening."A true friend and big bro. Please keep him in your prayers tonight as well."
Cassandra Sanchez, Sean Kingston's long time friend and passenger during Kingston's accident over the weekend has finally spoken out. Here is what she had to say about the incident…
"Both jet skis pulled out of the dock at the same time and we were going so fast we just blasted past them. When we turned a corner and crashed ... they were so far behind us they didn't even see us crash."
She also noted as they were racing towards the bridge, she screamed out "We can't fit under there! Are we going to try and go under there? Sean stop!" She then goes onto say that the next thing she remembers is waking up in the water in pain. Sean's friend was trying to position him so that he wouldn't swallow any more water, but Sanchez says that, "[Sean] was coughing up blood, foam and pink stuff" ... and when he finally opened his eyes, he kept repeating the words, "I'm hurting. I'm hurting"
Sanchez says that Kingston has a tube down his throat, but he is lucid and understands what is going on. She also said that Kingston should be home in a few weeks.
