Brian King Joseph shared a cryptic video alluding to alleged harassment by Will Smith days before he filing a lawsuit against the actor
Professional violinist Brian King Joseph appeared to allude to the alleged harassment he claimed he suffered at the hands of Will Smith days before filing a lawsuit against the famed actor.
“Earlier this year, I was hired to be a performer on a major, major tour with somebody who was huge in the industry,” Joseph, 35, claimed in a video shared via Instagram in December 2025. “So I was excited, you know, proud of myself for getting the opportunity. Unfortunately, some things happened.”
He continued, “I can’t get too into the details of exactly what that was because it’s already a legal issue right now, but the reason why I’m speaking out about this is because getting fired or getting blamed or shamed or threatened or anything like that simply for reporting sexual misconduct or safety threats at work is not okay.”
Joseph also spoke to others who he claimed might be “afraid to speak out” about their own alleged experiences.
“I understand, and if that’s you, I see you,” he said at the time.
