Rapper Akon simulates sex w/ 14yr old

[Elvira]

This type of “dancing” is popular where I’m from as well but it’s done behind closed doors and not in public.

Her top is inappropriate for a 14 year old girl.

Pastor Dave Alleyne of the Flaming Word Ministry of Chaguanas has come to the defence of his 14-year-old daughter whose raunchy dance with international superstar Akon of Senegal can be seen worldwide on YouTube.

Alleyne yesterday described the racy dance video of his 14-year-old daughter and Akon as "atrocious" but said that Deena was taken advantage of when she attended a concert at which Akon, a hip hop and R&B artiste was featured.

"She likes dancing and won a competition," Alleyne said, adding that she became a victim in a situation where she had no control.

Deena was filmed dancing with the superstar during his performance at the Zen nightclub last Thursday in Port of Spain. She had won the first stage of a competition which carried prizes, including a "free trip" to Africa. There was however no free trip to Africa as at the end of the competition, Akon said he was Africa.

Pastor Alleyne has been under attack by members of his Chaguanas ministry who wanted to know why he had failed to voice his opposition to Akon's performance .

Alleyne said he was "shocked" by the "atrocious" video and Akon's performance which bordered on sexual simulations.

In defence of his daughter, Alleyne said that children were exposed to pop culture and were fascinated by pop stars.

"They are innocent to the wicked ways of the world and it is our responsibility as elders to keep them safe," he said, adding that his duty was not to penalise his daughter but to be understanding of the situation and to assist her to grow stronger. There was no comment from Deena.

Outraged church-goers said that Akon sang about sexual promiscuity and should be banned from public performances by the church.

Express reader Elspeth Duncan of St Augustine said the pastor's daughter was treated like a lifeless ragdoll by the star who flung her body around the stage without regard.

She said that the video which had been sent to her showed a crowd laughing and cheering the singer on.

Another Pentecostal pastor, Winston Cuffie of Miracle Ministries, who has come out against the visit to Tobago by pop superstar Elton John next week because of his sexual orientation, has also come under fire for his failure to condemn the actions of Akon, whose stage performance was described by some as " disgusting, degrading and violent."

Cuffie, of McBean, Couva, could not be reached yesterday. Officials of his ministry said he would be asked to contact the Express but up to late evening he had not returned telephone calls.

That would be great for me. I am taking my 9 year old to Gwen Stefani to earn brownie points. I don't want her to see Akon, though, so I am going to have to time it so we arrive just in time for Gwen.

[Mr. Authority]

So the girl was a preacher's daugher eh? Figures.

[ChangingEventually]

I really have no sympathy for the girl. She was WILLING. I don't care what her father says, she wasn't taken advantage of at all. If she didn't want to dance like that, then she shouldn't have gone up there. But of course, if I was her, I would've said the same thing, that I was taken advantage of. Oh well, if you don't want to dance, then don't. What the fuck do people think "Grind on Me" means? "Politely dance 80 miles away from me"? This situation is boring and I've gotta go buy myself some Akon tickets. His concerts seem interesting.

[ChangingEventually]

Yo, here's some pics of da chick involved. She don't look 14, no wonder Akon didn't know she was only 14. Would you?

Gorgeous girl who looks waaaaaay beyond 14.

[Voodoo Child]

I think she looks 16 tops.

[A*O]

14yr old ho, or 16yr old ho - same diff.

[red wine]

That isn't dancing. That's some crazy-ass dry humping. Gross.

[drama_queen]

She looks much older than 14.Akon is a piece of shit.

[MoodyJenny86]

Well, this little girl certainly has a 'wild' side...

Jesus, when I was 14 years old I was probably still playing with barbies and wearing my hair in braids and pigtails!

Kids today...good grief =l

[ChangingEventually]

But how would Akon truly know it was a 14 year old? She probably didn't show him I.D. and I would think she was over 14 as well. So now she's gonna go and say she was taken advantage of.

[A*O]

Her age is irrelevant. In my day that kind of behaviour was 'performing a lewd act in a public place' and got you arrested. I know most music videos these days are basically porn with disturbing sexual stereotypes (playas and ho's) so I guess I shouldn't be shocked that people aren't shocked.

I agree. I just meant that she definately doesn't look as old as people are saying. I just don't see it. I see a baby face trying to glam/sex it up like she is older.

[mad1]

I don't see her look older than sixteen to be honest. Her face is very young looking. How ever she looks or is dressed. That does not excuse that nasty assed pervert getting women to do that with him on stage. Having a so called dancing contest where the only prize is that he gets his rocks off. I really don't understand why rappers go out of their way to demean women.
