Video Shows Ray J & Lemuel Plummer Feeling Froggy
The two men were having a conversation close to each other’s faces while Lemuel shook Ray J a few times by the shoulder. At that point, security intervened, tearing the men apart.
Still, Ray and Plummer continued to exchange words over the chaos in the crowd, and at one point, Ray tried to throw hands in between security’s human wall! The actor and singer didn’t back down easily, circling a car to try to get to Lemuel Plummer.
It’s still unclear what caused all the commotion. However, Ray J and the Zeus network executive have had bubbling beef for the last few weeks. Last month, Ray reportedly shared surveillance footage of Plummer allegedly getting hands put on him, per blogs like Sweet Tea.
While Plummer hasn’t said a peep on social media about the incident, Ray J issued a lengthy statement via his Instagram Story. They were both in attendance at the BET Awards on Sunday, according to red carpet photos.
