Jamaican US singer Sean Kingston has given his first televised interview since his May 29 jet-skiing crash.
The "Beautiful Girls" singer was visibly slimmer in his interview with MTV, and discussed his recovery, changes in his lifestyle and, surprisingly, his desire to get back on a jet ski.
Kingston was taken to the Jackson Memorial Hospital after crashing his jet ski into a bridge.
He suffered a shattered wrist, broken jaw and had water in his lungs.
Kingston says he took nutrients through a feeding tube for the first few days and had his jaw wired.
During the early days of his hospitalization, Kingston could only communicate by writing things down. He told MTV this served him well in thinking about future songs and lyrics.
When asked whether he would give up jet skiing, Kingston said, "I'm definitely going to be jet-skiing again. I have to overcome my fear. It wasn't the jet ski, it was not knowing the area."
After losing weight during his recovery, the 21 year-old said he's making a concerted effort to lose even more.
He has a trainer, is watching what he eats and aims to lose 20 more pounds.
Kingston also said he has a renewed faith in God and now attends church every Sunday.
The artiste returned to the stage on July 22 to join pal Nicki Minaj on their collaboration "Nutty Love."
