Tommie Lee turned a Zeus Network event in Houston into a hospital run after a glass thrown from the stage allegedly hit a 20-year-old attendee in the face.
Davion Chambers says what was supposed to be a fun night on the Bad Guys tour quickly descended into chaos when Tommie Lee, best known for Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, allegedly retaliated for an object being thrown at her, only to hit the wrong person.
“Tommy was performing on stage. There were bad guys upstairs in the VIP area and they were throwing things at Tommy. Tommy reacted and thought it was the crowd, so she threw the shot glass at me,” Chambers told the Houston Chronicle.
Video footage from the event appears to show Lee throwing glasses into the audience.
Chambers was hit near his left eye, causing a deep cut that required emergency care and stitches. He said the impact was so sudden and disorienting that he initially thought he had been hit in the head.
Chambers said blood streamed from his face as he struggled to get help from event staff and performers. His pleas for assistance were largely ignored until he burst into tears.
“No one noticed me until I started crying. I started tapping the bad guys. I tapped them all, trying to get their attention and let them know this was just happening to me,” he said.
Tommy Lee later issued a general apology on her Instagram Stories, saying “Houston” but not naming Chambers directly. He has since reported the incident to the police and plans to take legal action against Lee and Zeus Network.
Representatives for Lee have not responded to requests for comment.
Lee’s role in the Bad Guys series is her latest television gig following her starring role on VH1’s Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta.
This wasn’t Tommy Lee’s first run-in with the law. According to the reality TV host, she has been arrested more than 30 times.
In May 2019, she was sentenced to ten years in prison on one count of first-degree child abuse, three counts of simple assault, domestic violence and one count of disrupting a public school.
In that incident, she went to her daughter’s school, beat her and stuffed her head into a locker. She managed to avoid jail time after participating in a court-ordered residential rehabilitation program.
