Miguel’s Reps Claim That He Practiced The Jump Twice

Since speculation that the leg victim of Miguel might sue, there have been several reports made that Billboard warned the singer against attempting the stunt. In more news,  reps of the singer claim that Miguel practiced the jumped twice that resulted in the unfortunate leg drop accident of audience member, Khyati Shah.

According to TMZ, representatives of the Billboard Music Awards producers did not tell Miguel not to jump in response to earlier reports that claimed they had warned the singer against performing the now infamous jump. The singer’s reps noted that producers asked Miguel about the stunt so that they could capture it on camera. They also claim that the producers seemingly supported the leap, completely opposite of what the BMA is reporting.

The back and forth has intensified since Shah’s attorney has revealed that the victim has suffered some “difficulties” that suggest “neurological head injury”. If medical examiners confirm, her lawyer states that there could be grounds to pursue a case. Her lawyer also stated that Shah was only given an ice pack after the incident and not a medical evaluation.

Miguel has had several stage accidents, including a fall earlier this year. It is unsure who is telling the truth in this case, since both parties do not want to be to blame if a case is pursued.
