Former AGT Violinist Sues Will Smith, Claims He Groomed and Sexually Harassed Him

There was a Katt Williams interview a while back where he gave names and mentioned the meeting where success was promised if you would participate in a gay sex act, which he declined, and Ludacris accepted to have many starring movie roles, Farmer’s Insurance commercial… And we’ve had reports of the young people in Hollywood that go to the parties of producers, not to mention how those that seem to have gone through with it end up having bad drug problems later because they can’t handle the exploitation. And this really shows why the top talent doesn’t succeed on merit, with inferior actors, actresses and projects foisted on us repeatedly. So with that backdrop, listen to what has happened to Will Smith, and probably why he didn’t care as much about his cheating occultist wife. And it seems pretty believable with weird details you wouldn’t make up, and Will has a particular male friend he was taking a lot of trips with previously rumored to be involved with… The Romans 1 reprobate mind in action.

A new lawsuit has emerged in Hollywood, with professional violinist Brian King Joseph accusing actor and musician Will Smith of sexual harassment and deliberate grooming during the 2025 “Based on a True Story” tour. Joseph, known for his appearance as a finalist on “America’s Got Talent” in 2018, claims Smith created an environment ripe for exploitation, leading to a disturbing incident that ended with his abrupt firing. The complaint, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on December 30, 2025, details a sequence of events that Joseph says caused him severe emotional and financial harm.

The allegations trace back to late 2024, when Joseph was hired for a San Diego performance with Smith. That collaboration expanded into tour work and contributions to Smith’s album, released in March 2025. According to the suit, Smith made comments suggesting an unusually close bond, telling Joseph, “You and I have such a special connection that I don’t have with anyone else.”

These statements, Joseph argues, were part of a grooming pattern aimed at priming him for sexual advances.

The core incident unfolded in Las Vegas in March 2025, during early tour rehearsals. Joseph’s hotel room key went missing after being left in a crew van, and management took hours to retrieve his bag. Upon entering his room, he discovered it had been accessed without signs of forced entry. Scattered items included a handwritten note saying, “Brian, I’ll be back no later [than] 5:30, just us,” with a drawn heart and signed “Stone F,” along with wipes, a beer bottle, a red backpack, a bottle of HIV medication prescribed to someone else, an earring, and hospital discharge papers for an unknown individual.

Joseph interpreted this as evidence of an impending sexual encounter and immediately alerted hotel security, Smith’s team, and local police through a non-emergency line, documenting everything with photos.

In the days that followed, Joseph’s report backfired. A member of Smith’s management, Tim Miller, allegedly confronted him, saying, “I don’t know, you tell me, because everyone is telling me that what happened to you is a lie, nothing happened, and you made the whole thing up. So, tell me, why did you lie and make this up?”

Joseph provided a detailed timeline as requested, but was soon replaced by another violinist and terminated. The lawsuit contends this was retaliation for raising safety concerns tied to harassment, resulting in PTSD, other mental health issues, lost income, and reputational damage.

Smith’s representatives have pushed back strongly. Attorney Allen B. Grodsky told media outlets the claims are “false, baseless, and reckless,” adding that they are “categorically denied” and that legal action will vindicate Smith. As of January 2, 2026, no further statements from Smith or his company, Treyball Studios Management, have surfaced, and the case remains in its early stages.

This suit arrives amid ongoing scrutiny of Smith’s personal and professional life, including a separate $3 million claim against his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, by a former associate alleging threats and coercion in 2021. Observers note patterns in Tinseltown where powerful figures seem to operate with impunity, echoing scandals involving other celebrities like Sean “Diddy” Combs, whose own legal troubles have exposed networks of influence and alleged cover-ups. Some speculate these incidents point to deeper systemic issues in the entertainment industry, where accountability often lags behind accusations.

For Joseph, the fallout has been profound, disrupting a career built on talent and perseverance. The violinist’s story raises questions about workplace protections in high-profile tours, where boundaries can blur under the glare of fame. As the legal process unfolds, it may reveal more about how such claims are handled—or dismissed—in elite circles.

In a broader sense, these events serve as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and moral integrity in professional relationships. Scripture warns against the snares of unchecked desires, as in Proverbs 4:23: “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.” Whether this case uncovers isolated misconduct or something more entrenched, it calls for justice to prevail without favoritism.

The entertainment world watches closely, as resolutions in similar disputes have sometimes exposed uncomfortable truths about those at the top. Joseph seeks damages for his losses, but the real cost may lie in the erosion of trust within an industry already plagued by whispers of hidden agendas.
