CeeLo Green will probably never look at a cell phone the same.

Video footage of the singer surfaced online, showing a phone exploding by his ear. Green was talking on a cellphone while sitting in a chair in a recording studio. Not too long after, the device exploded. Green was knocked down to the floor because of the impact.

Some fans worried about what effects it had on the star and some even wondered if he was killed in the incident. In a video posted on Facebook, Green gave an update on his health.

“I just want to let everybody know that I am alive, and I’m well, and I’m OK,” Green said. “Truthfully, I’m really upset that anybody had to be emotionally disturbed by what they saw today. Actually, what you saw today was a clip from a smaller video that we were shooting for a new project I’m doing called Gnarly Davidson. It’s supposed to set up and introduce the new character identity.”

Green added, “I’m still gonna release the music, though,” he continued. “But first and foremost, for everybody that love me and care about me, I just want to let y’all know that I’m OK … I just want to thank everybody for their love and support and concern.”

Green has been busy promoting Gnarly Davidson for months. On Halloween, he released a song called “Hurt Me Again” that was billed as a Gnarly Davidson cut.
