T.I. just doesn't take any crap these days. Weeks after getting into a scuffle with Ludacris' manager, Chaka Zulu, the rapper gets into it with a fan.

According to a report from gossip site TMZ.com, the rapper was performing at an ESPY Awards pre-party at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel on Tuesday night (July 10), when he became enraged by a fan in the audience.

Apparently, a fan was not too impressed with T.I.'s performance, so he threw a cup at him. T.I. became very angry, and then leaped off stage into the crowd, where he jumped over celebrities such as Brody Jenner and the Duff sisters, according to TMZ.com.

When he finally reached the fan, he allegedly struck the individual with his microphone. The bloody fan was then escorted out of the building.

It is unknown as to whether the fan filed a complaint.

T.I. and/or his camp were unavailable for comment at press time.

Well T.I. may have been wrong in this situation, but he's a human being just like the rest of us and the only reason dude threw the the cup is because of who T.I. is so if u ask me I would have smacked the nigga up to and apologized later because T.I. likes it or not he is now a role model so he has to play that part and the only way is for a public apology u cant have kids thinking its ok to punch people in the face but u also can't let them think its ok for people to treat u any kind of way so this is kind of a tuff situation for T.I. all he did was react like the next man would he didn't stop and think mane what am I doing im T.I. I think its about time for someone to grow up and im not talking about the fan if yall know what I mean and anybody who don't agree wit me or my response FUCK U !

T.I. is a hot head, he is on the same road 2pac was on, jumping on fans. Next time T.I. better think before he jumps, because a shank could be waiting for his neck.

The elevator went up too fast for TI - he must be dizzy from the ride. He is a good artist but the maturity with the grind gives you a lot of respect for the industry and those who like or don't like you... the fans are what make artists. He might want to take some tips from all those people who made it open for him to be in the industry he is so busy whining is "hating on him"... a plant with no root will blow away... Man up... TI

I thought T.I. had more cool in him than that. I saw Lil' Wayne get hit by a cup, and he just laughed it off. You know, shit happens, and haters gonna hate. It's Nothing
