BILOXI, MS (WLOX) -
A Grammy nominated entertainer is in trouble with Biloxi police after he decked a female fan during a Fat Tuesday performance.

Joseph Foreman, aka Afroman, was on stage at Kress Live Tuesday afternoon following Biloxi's Mardi Gras parade. While he played his guitar, a woman walked on stage. Seconds later, the video clearly show Afroman turning around, and throwing a punch that knocked the woman to the ground.

Biloxi police say that woman made a citizen's arrest. She filed an affidavit against the entertainer. He was arrested and charged with misdemeanor simple assault.

Afroman paid $330 CASH to bond out of jail. According to Biloxi's police chief, the musician “gave us no problem whatsoever.”

Chase Taylor owns Kress Live. He told WLOX News, "Afroman was about five songs into his set when the incident occurred. We pulled the plug on him, and security met him at the bottom of the stage to escort him outside, where he was taken into custody."

Afroman is 40 years old. He went to USM. In 2002, his song "Because I Got High" was nominated for a Grammy.

"Kress Live does not condone this type of behavior. We like to keep a safe environment, and we addressed the situation the best way we could," said Taylor.

Definitely. If a man were to jump on stage and try to dance, I think everybody would be fine with him being punched in the face. In fact they should probably just call that out as being completely legal and, expected.

Afroman...what a pussy. Guy gets up there and that fat loser doesn't want any part of him. He will hit a little chic without thinking about it though. Hope she sues the shit out of him and wins.

His left leg is letting too much power leak out at contact, he drops his left shoulder, and his weight transfer isn't timed very well. Not a good woman hitter at all. Should stick to eating fried chicken and playing guitar

Damn! Her feet leave the ground. Also just now realizing she landed on the corner of that other stage.

I don't know if I'd have hit her, but yeah. He's trying to do his job, and she's not only trying to grab attention away from him but started to touch him when he pretty clearly didn't want her to. She had to be removed from the stage one way or another, and I think an arrest for a hit of that magnitude is too harsh (she got right back up and seemed to be fine).

Chivalry seems to be pretty popular on a message board full of conservative old men, but if we as a society want women to be actually equal to men, we can't be choosy about the areas they're "equal" in.

men who hit women are cowards and low life....the reason doesn't matter

Equality is one thing. But if you clearly outweighed some guy. And knew you would crush him, would you? For something that small? Also Afroman may not pack as mean a punch as an average person. Looked like he hit her hard, just because she got up quick doesn't make it any better.
