Try Gooding Jr. seems to have a knack for getting into trouble at social gatherings! After narrowly escaping sexual misconduct allegations, the Hollywood veteran’s summer began with an alleged brawl.
The award-winning actor rose to fame for his incredible performances in iconic films like the 90s classic, “Boyz n the Hood.” Although he is celebrated as a sensational performer, his reputation differs outside the industry.
The New Yorker’s image is the subject of controversy, with various allegations of inappropriate behavior filed against him. While the 55-year-old’s relationship with the woman is still in question, the father of three may be a magnet for trouble.

Following his recent trials and tribulations, the Academy Award winner visited the East End to chill with his beautiful girlfriend, Claudine De Niro. However, a source told PageSix, the “Men of Honor” star’s plan to relax was rudely interrupted by a security guard.
The TV personality is no stranger to visiting the famous Hamptons joint. He frequents places like Surf Lodge, Duryea’s Lobster Deck and Baron’s Cove, among others, but for his date night, the entertainer chose Stephen Talkhouse, a popular music venue.
Gooding and De Niro had gone to the iconic venue in Amagansett for a night of reggae. However, their jam session did not start as planned. The group was delayed, and they were setting up when one of the security guards spotted the “Radio” actor.
“He was sitting on the side of the stage, waiting for the reggae band to start,” the source explained, noting that a bouncer had marched up to the New Yorker and ordered him to stand. Naturally, the 55-year-old did not appreciate the man’s impolite tone and instead tried to resolve the issue peacefully.
According to the insider, “Try to be like, ‘Calm down.’ Security then ran out of power and screamed in his face.” The informant explained they did not see the next scene; however, they heard the matter ended when “[security] lifted it to move it, and then [Cuba] go with Claudine.”
The truth behind the alleged altercation remains uncertain as owner Stephen Talkhouse claimed “the incident was not as reported” when asked. Despite the claims of the owners of the music joint, they refused to share additional information about the issue.
As noted above, Gooding’s split comes weeks after the father of three made headlines for his bad relationships with women. The “Jerry Maguire” star narrowly escaped trial for rape after reaching an out-of-court settlement with the plaintiff.

Gooding and the alleged female victim settled their matter minutes before the sexual assault case was scheduled in New York federal court. Allegations of rape first surfaced in 2020, when the anonymous woman sued the SAG Award recipient.
According to the lawsuit, the TV personality allegedly raped her in a New York City hotel more than a decade ago. She claims the “Boat Trip” actor forced her into his lodgings following their casual encounter in Manhattan.
Gooding used the excuse of changing clothes to take the unknown woman into his room, where the act was committed. However, the New Yorker denied these allegations, claiming the meeting was consensual.
Emmy Nominee Avoids Jail Using Plea Deal In Sexual Misconduct Case
The “Daddy Day Camp” star’s troubles in the social scene began several years earlier with various accusations of inappropriate behavior, but time and time again, he escaped before the legal troubles began.
In October, the 55-year-old managed to escape prison after accepting a plea deal in a sexual harassment case. Gooding was charged with forcible touching after a woman sued him for kissing her without permission at a New York City club in September 2018.
The victim filed a lawsuit a year later, eventually winning his day in court after a grand jury indicted the entertainer. The allegation occurred after the father of three was arrested based on the allegation of another woman. According to the woman, the “End Game” actor groped her breasts without consent on a rooftop hot spot in New York.

At first, the TV personality refused to admit these allegations and tried to get the allegations thrown out of court. However, he broke a plea deal to avoid prison and admitted he kissed the first victim without permission.
In addition, he pleaded guilty to subjecting two other women to non-consensual physical contact in October 2018 and June 2019. According to the legal agreement, Gooding will continue to receive “alcohol and behavioral modification treatment” that he began in 2019 for an additional six months and cannot be caught within the time period.
If the New Yorker fails to comply, he faces up to a year in jail.
