Washington, May 10 (ANI): Rapper Akon has apologized for engaging in sexually explicit dance moves with an underage girl at a club in the Caribbean.

A video that was put on YoutTube, and later on TV channels, showed the artists engaged in the explicit act with a fifteen-year-old girl in Zen night club in Trinidad.

As a result of the row, Akin was dropped by Verizon as a featured talent, and also terminated sponsorship of Gwen Stefani’s latest tour, where the”Smack That” rapper was to perform an opening act.

Akon apologized for the embarrassment he caused to the girl, her family and the Trinidad community

“I want to sincerely apologize for the embarrassment and any pain I’ve caused to the young woman who joined me onstage, her family and the Trinidad community for the events at my concert,” E! Online quoted Akon’s statement.
