maybe these hip hop magazines should stop hosting award shows...

cause everytime someone gets f'ed up. seriously though, this is an all-time great ny post story. so many great throwaway lines like "Whoever was stabbed was not a celebrity." and The after-party at a nearby hotel was canceled.



The violence broke out as rapper Dr. Dre rose to accept the Vibe Legend Award from presenters Quincy Jones and Snoop Dogg, a witness at the Santa Monica event told The Post.
An unidentified man sitting with Death Row Records chief Marion "Suge" Knight lunged toward Dr. Dre with a knife — but members of rapper 50 Cent's entourage intervened, the witness said.
It is unclear who was stabbed. MTV reported that he might be a member of the rap group G-Unit's entourage.

It is unclear how the incident will effect UPN's broadcast of the show tonight.

"All I know is that someone from Suge's table ran forward to get to Dre, but a bunch of people from 50 Cent's table blocked him," said the witness.
"Whoever was stabbed was not a celebrity."

"It was pure panic," the witness said. "Russell Simmons ran out of here crying."

Another witness told MTV that Knight had run onto the stage, screaming obscenities at the audience of about 1,000. Several people in the crowd were pepper-sprayed, the network reported.

The after-party at a nearby hotel was canceled.
