Hip-hop star Sean Kingston was critically injured this week in a jet-skiing accident in Miami, said TMZ.com. Kingston, 21, and a female passenger were traveling at a high rate of speed when they crashed into a bridge. Kingston sustained multiple injuries and is recovering in an intensive-care unit. Doctors say he’ll remain in the hospital for about six weeks. His passenger, Cassandra Sanchez, was treated for minor injuries. “We were going really fast,” she said afterward. Police say alcohol was not a factor in the crash.
