The Artist… known as Prince has recently made headlines for allegedly taking 22 bootleggers to court for illegally uploading footage of his concert(s) to YouTube. As many should know, the artist is stern about his music. So stern that he rarely remasters any of his old music for digital download. The lawsuit added up to $22 million ($1 mil per each offender). However, after the lawsuit made headlines, it –for some reason– went away. Well, Prince’s lawyer released a statement, telling us why.
Kanye West Settles Case With Beating Victim
Get hit by Kanye and get a big return! The guy Kanye West beat up in the waiting room of a Beverly Hills chiropractor is getting a big reward for taking the beating… MORE THAN $250,000 reward. Sources say the young man who allegedly let out racial slurs at Kim earlier this month has agreed to the civil settlement and is okay with NOT going forward with a criminal prosecution. Law enforcement say the D.A. has not decided whether to charge Kanye with battery. TMZ states, “There’s almost no chance of that happening. First, the D.A. now has an uncooperative victim. Second, the victim’s alleged racial epithets will not sit well with the jury. And there are probably lots of Kanye fans in the jury pool. During the settlement negotiations the victim’s demand soared to the upper 6 figures, so $250K is just a fraction.” Kanye’s civil lawyer, Shawn Holley, had no comment.

Miley Cyrus Named In Lawsuit Over Miami Concert
This seems to happen far too often! Promoters in Miami paid a woman claiming to be Miley Cyrus’ rep $125k as a deposit for a performance at the annual Miami South Beach Outdoor Festival on New Year’s Day, but Miley failed to show – mostly because of the fact she was never really booked! The woman took the money but did not produce Miley, and it is now being discovered she actually has no real connection to the pop star. She is responding to requests for commentary, however, and hasn’t gone completely MIA, saying that though she doesn’t work directly for Miley, she was acting as an intermediary and forwarded the money to Miley’s real agents. Miley’s people claim BS, though, and say they never heard of the woman or any such gig. The promoter has filed suit against Miley’s camp and the alleged agent for their $125k.
