In footage obtained by The Daily Telegraph, The Voice coach, clearly frustrated, is seen storming up to the teens after they allegedly said something offensive to him, calling one of them a “f***wit”.Responding to the clip, Sebastian said he was “provoked” by the youths, and that the clip was far from the full extent of the incident.It comes amid a tough time for the Australian Idol alum, who is currently in a court battle against his ex-manager and this week tested positive for Covid.The short snippet published by Sunday Confidential sees the 40-year-old approaching the group saying: “I was f**king being nice to you,” as one of the teens tells him to “calm down”.“He’s a kid calm down,” the teen repeats.“I was a kid once, I wasn’t a f***wit,” Sebastian shoots back in the video.Responding to the snippet, Sebastian admitted he regretted his strong language.“We all know teenagers can push boundaries,” he said.“This isn’t an isolated situation.“Being provoked for a reaction and being filmed sometimes comes with being in the public eye.“I shouldn’t have sworn, I am not proud of that, but … it’s a very short snippet of a situation that does not tell the full story.”This week, Sebastian gave evidence in court against his former manager Titus Day, who is accused of masterminding a $900,000 embezzlement scandal.And on Friday, the singer was forced to postpone his tour dates after testing positive for Covid, revealing he’s “absolutely gutted”.
