Rockwell (‘Somebody’s Watching Me’) Arrested for Allegedly Beating Woman with a Chair

*Maybe Berry Gordy’s famous one-hit wonder son, Rockwell (“Somebody’s Watching Me”), should be paranoid … about going to jail ’cause he’s been a baaaad boy.

He is reported to have attacked a woman named Margaret Norton at the end of November because she approached him for a payment.  Rockwell (real name: Kennedy Gordy) and Norton, had been staying at the Magic Castle Hotel, located in Hollywood right next door to the famous Magic Castle private nightclub, according to The Blast.

The story goes he became irate after Norton’s payment request and attacked her with a chair, resulting in serious injuries including a broken arm. The 54-year-old singer ended up spending a couple nights in jail before he was released on the morning of December 1.

Here’s what else the The Blast is reporting:

The woman has undergone one surgery and we’re told she needs to go under the knife again to repair the extensive damage to her arm. On January 7, she filed a lawsuit against Rockwell in Los Angeles for personal injury, and claims her damages exceed $25,000.

The troubled son of Berry Gordy has multiple criminal cases open at the moment, including one for criminal threats and another for indecent exposure and lewd acts. He has not yet been in court over the alleged chair beating.

The singer, best known for his 80s hit song, “Somebody’s Watching Me,” was arrested after allegedly beating a woman down with a chair at a Hollywood hotel, and now she has filed a lawsuit over the injury.

Rockwell was arrested November 29, 2018 in Hollywood after the incident went down at the Magic Castle Hotel, and he was booked on a felony charge with $30,000 bail.

The report goes on to say that sources close to the situation say that Norton was working for the singer at the time, and that along with being physically and verbally abusive, he owed her money.

The woman has undergone one surgery and we’re told she needs additional surgery to repair the extensive damage to her arm. On January 7, she filed a lawsuit against Rockwell in Los Angeles for personal injury, and claims her damages exceed $25,000.
