Cleveland rapper Kid Cudi was reportedly involved in a fight while attending an NBA All-Star Weekend party in Phoenix this weekend.  The rapper is said to have gotten into a verbal altercation with Reebok employees at the shoe company’s All-Star celebration, which then escalated into a physical fight.

Rumor has it that the argument was sparked when Cudi refused to wear Reebok shoes on stage, wearing Jordans instead.  Police were called, and the incident ended with Kid Cudi being tasered and arrested when authorities couldn’t control him.  via BallerStatus
