Timbaland has denied reports that he was contemplating suicide after a $2m (£1.2m) watch was stolen from his Malibu home.
According to TMZ, the producer was said to be "deeply upset" about the theft, worrying family members and causing them to call the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department who put out a bulletin for a "possible suicide attempt".
However, he insisted that there was no reason for his family to worry as he was not in danger at any time.
"People steal from me all the time. Something did happen. That wasn't a watch. It was something else," he told Ryan Seacrest on a call to his KIIS-FM radio program.
"Only thing I did was take a drive and figure out how I'm gonna handle it. I wasn't talking, so I guess people got worried. I tell people if my mom ain't calling or my brothers or my best friend, ain't nothing to talk about."
He added: "Now why would I commit suicide? I could buy what was stolen."
