It's weird enough that former governor Mitt Romney got assaulted while flying back from the Olympics in Vancouver, but don't worry: it gets worse. Romney was assaulted by a rapper named Sky Blu, star of the group LMFAO, similar to the Black Eyed Peas in style.
What's more, Sky Blu is starting to point fingers at Romney, saying that he was the aggressor in the situation, and his reaction was merely self-defense.
The part of the situation everyone agrees on is that Sky Blu reclined his seat back before take-off, and Romney asked him to straighten his seat.
If you believe Romney, this is the point where Sky Blue freaked out and started attacking the former governor, before being escorted off the plane.
However, Sky Blu says that Romney got physical with him first, loudly telling him to fix his seat and then grabbing his shoulder, at which point Sky Blu slapped his hand away before being escorted off the plane.
Neither Romney nor Sky Blu are pressing any sort of charges, and it appears Romney, at least, is trying to put the whole thing behind him.
TMZ has a fantastic clip of Sky Blu getting taken off the plane, and then trying to explain his actions while wearing nothing but a shirt and underwear, so, if you want his side of the story--or some laughs--check it out.
