Wow, David Eason is really going out of his way to be super awful, huh? You have to wonder how he even has this much time on his hands, really. In addition to being such a terrifying human being that the actual Secret Service had to pay him a visit, he's exercising his nastiness by making comments about his own wife, Jenelle Evans. And boy, are they nasty … 1. Here We Go So … yeah, there’s been a lot going on lately for these two, huh? 2. Hmmmm … It’s hard to pick an exact point when things started going downhill for them since that’s been happening pretty much since the day they met, but let’s think … 3. Ah You know, there’s pretty much no denying that things took a significant turn after that 911 call from Jenelle made the rounds back in October. 4. Warning: Not Safe for Life If you haven’t heard the call yet, well, lucky you, but here it is: in this recording, we hear Jenelle sobbing hysterically and telling the 911 operator that her husband abused her and she thinks he may have broken a bone. 5. Just Heartbreaking Everyone who listened to the recording agreed that she seemed genuinely terrified and just beside herself, and that she’s just not a good enough actress to make all that up. 6. Huh She never addressed the call itself, but she’s insisted that David never laid a hand on her, and for a while, they went out of their way to act all lovey dovey with each other. View Slideshow
Those who’ve been on social media since 2012 have witnessed both the rise and fall of J Law. But even though Jennifer Lawrence defended Ryan Seacrest against #MeToo accusations, she totally disavows Harvey Weinstein. And she’s now responding to the rumor that the disgraced former producer launched her career in exchange for sex. Late last week, a Jane Doe plaintiff filed a lawsuit against Harvey Weinstein. The actual suit says that he lured her into a private meeting under the guise of discussing her career, only to then sexually assault her. It is an all-too-familiar story of the nightmare that many women face in the entertainment industry and beyond. Though the actress filing the suit has not been identified, one very recognizable name from court documents caught people’s attention. According to the lawsuit, Weinstein once claimed that he had slept with Jennifer Lawrence. His alleged brag also said that the sexual relationship was responsible for J Law’s A-list career. Of particular note was that he referred to Jennifer’s 2012 Oscar win. “I slept with Jennifer Lawrence and look where she is,” he reportedly told Jane Doe. “She has just won an Oscar.” The implication was that he could make — or break — careers on a whim. Pointing to a star at the height of her career and claiming that he made it happen in exchange for sex was clearly meant to encourage this woman to voluntarily sleep with him. That is just so gross — especially in light of everything else that the world has heard about Weinstein. So … is it true? Jennifer Lawrence released a statement to Entertainment Tonight to address the claim that Weinstein allegedly made to the unnamed actress. “My heart breaks for all the women who were victimized by Harvey Weinstein,” Jennifer Lawrence writes. But she, she announces, was not one of them. J Law states: “I have never had anything but a professional relationship with him.” “This is yet another example of the predatory tactics and lies that he engaged,” she concludes. “In to lure countless women.” “This lawsuit was filed and updated strategically with no notice given or any attempt to reach out to Mr. Weinstein’s attorneys for one reason;” Weinstein’s team claims. That’s right — he still has people who are willing to take his money in order to defend him. “It was meant to embarrass Mr. Weinstein and garner unchecked media attention,” Weinstein’s spokesperson claims. Bold of them to imply that their client could possibly be embarrassed at this point. We’re well past that. “There is absolutely no truth to the malicious claims made in this lawsuit,” the response claims. The statement continues: “And we are reviewing our options with an eye on filing for an immediate dismissal.” “Mr. Weinstein is embarrassed for Ms. Lawrence,” the spokesperson says. They continue: “with whom he has only had a professional and respectful relationship, who has sadly been dragged into this ugly attempt at defamation.” Jennifer Lawrence began her statement by directly expressing sympathy for Weinstein’s alleged victims, but she didn’t say alleged . We imagine that J Law would tell Weinstein exactly where he can stick his embarrassment. In the end, Weinstein’s response says that this lawsuit is just taking cheap shots without repercussion. “This filing further proves that anyone can say whatever they want in a lawsuit,” the spokesperson adds. The statement concludes: “for maximum shock value, to defame and debase, without having to offer any facts or reality.” Well, people can make a lot of accusations in lawsuits. But we somehow doubt that Jane Doe filed this suit for fun. View Slideshow: Hollywood Sex Scandal: Who’s Been Caught? Accused? Fired?

Federal Judge Files Lawsuit Against Trump’s Travel Ban The people of the United States aren’t here for burnt sienna POTUS’ travel ban on predominantly Muslim countries. The outrage is so vitriolic that a federal judge in Seattle gave a Dikembe Mutombo finger to the whole thing and Donald is PISSED! According to NYDailyNews , a lawsuit has been filed against Trump’s executive order and is ready to fight it all the way to the Supreme Court: “The law is a powerful thing — it has the ability to hold everybody accountable to it, and that includes the President of the United States,” State Attorney General Bob Ferguson said at a press conference after the Friday evening ruling. Washington is the first state to file suit against the order (New York has joined the suit) but several other judges in both Boston and Virginia have also issued restraining order barring deportation of people affect by the ban. The order, signed off by United States District Judge James Robart, argues Trump’s executive action “adversely” affects “areas of employment, education, business, family relations and freedom to travel.” Reversing the action, the suit concluded, is thereby in the public interest. Trump’s resident do-boy boot-licker, Sean Spicer, says the suit is “outrageous” and issued a brown-nosing statement: “The President’s order is intended to protect the homeland, and he has the constitutional authority and responsibility to protect the American people,” Spicer said in a Friday night statement. In the words of the great American wordsmith YG, “F**k Donald Trump”. Image via AP

Katt Williams’ Assault And Kidnapping Suit Thrown Out Turns out the comedienne that Katt Williams allegedly slapped up and insulted on tour is being a little greedy. Katt’s lawyers had to tap her on the shoulder and remind her that she’s already been paid for her troubles and is going to need to drop her new case — or else. Via TMZ : Katt Williams is the victim of a serious double-dipper — that’s his reaction to a comedian suing him over an alleged beatdown, because he says he’s already forked over a settlement. TMZ broke the story … Ashima Franklin filed a lawsuit, saying Katt attacked and kidnapped her, but sources close to Katt say her suit is just a repeat of claims she made months ago. We’re told Ashima accepted a “small amount” of cash to squash the drama, and even signed a settlement agreement. Apparently, her lawyer didn’t get that memo … and went ahead and filed a $3 million lawsuit for her. Obviously, Katt’s attorneys sent Ashima’s lawyer the previous agreement, so she’s dismissed the suit. WELP. If she took the small amount she can’t go seeking more after finding out Katt has some batsh*t crazy tendencies. But in the meantime…he may want to look into maybe NOT beating up, imprisoning, or kidnapping people he comes across anymore… Instagram
Bobbi Kristina’s Estate Administrator Sued Pat And Cissy Houston For Refusing To Pay Estate Legal Bills Bobbi Kristina Brown’s aunt and grandmother have fired back in a lawsuit accusing them of shirking paying the bills on the estate of their late relative. Marion “Pat” Houston and Emily “Cissy” Houston denied that they’ve held up paying Bobbi Kristina’s estate expenses, and said they’re not paying for the estate’s wrongful death lawsuit against bad boy Nick Gordon because they believe it’s a waste of money, and it’s Bobbi Kristina’s father, Bobby Brown, who has the authority to file the wrongful death suit, not the estate administrator, Bedelia Hargrove. The family said in court papers that they never gave the OK for Hargrove to file the suit in the first place. “It is not in the estate’s best interest to pursue the wrongful death claim against Gordon, because the costs of litigation will be prohibitive, the likelihood of obtaining and collecting on a judgment is extremely doubtful, and such an action by Mrs. Hargrove, the administrator, will only serve to deplete the estate,” the Houston’s wrote in their answer to the suit this month in Fulton County, Ga. Superior Court.
Storch’s Drug Abuse Claims Part Of $4 Million Lawsuit For Breach Of Contract And Fraud Scott Storch has allegedly botched his comeback by falling off the wagon and weaseling out of a deal that was supposed to mark his return. That’s according to Storch’s former business partners Brad and Seth Cohen, who made the claims in a fraud and breach of contract lawsuit that accuses the prolific producer of backing out of an agreement to make hits exclusively for their company, CCS Music Group. The suit, filed New Year’s Eve 2015 in U.S. District Court in Fort Lauderdale, explained that Storch got hooked on his drug of choice – cocaine – back in 2006, and his three-year addiction helped fuel a $30 million spending spree, and resulted in an arrest for coke possession in 2012. Last June, Storch filed for bankruptcy, listing assets of $3,600 and debts of $4.4 million. The Cohen brothers said they agreed to help Storch make a comeback by forming a company, CCS Music Group, where Storch would produce music and the Cohens would own and sell it. They inked the deal last June, and Storch agreed to transfer his music publishing rights and let the company use his name and likeness to promote the music. The brothers said they sunk more than $1 million into the company and paid Storch’s rent and a weekly salary. The Cohens also leased a Rolls Royce Ghost for Storch and the men agreed that the car would be taken away if Storch failed a drug test. Last month, the Cohens discovered that Storch had fallen off the wagon and was again using drugs, the suit alleged. When the men demanded the Rolls Royce back, Storch told them he wasn’t going to work with them anymore, and instead began making music for Florence Mirsky – who is also named as a defendant in the suit. Storch’s lawyer later fired off a letter to CCS Music, banning the company from accessing the music Storch made or even communicating with him.
Rapper Says Performance Ditch Was A Misunderstanding – Not Fraud 2 Chainz said a lawsuit accusing him of fraud for not turning up to perform at a Midwest music festival on his birthday was simply a misunderstanding – and wants the case thrown out. Concert promoter Levelland Productions sued 2Chainz and his manager in Oklahoma Federal Court last month for his no show at the Rawhide Music Festival in Stillwater, OK back in September. The promoter said he and 2Chainz agreed he’d perform at the show on Sept. 12 – his birthday. Instead, 2 Chainz showed up a day earlier and demanded to go on stage. The promoter said other acts were booked that night and he couldn’t reshuffle the lineup. 2 Chainz left, and the promoter saw on social media that the rapper performed a birthday concert in Atlanta. Levelland Productions’ lawsuit said 2 Chainz and his people knew he wouldn’t be available on his birthday, and tried to strong-arm the promoter into letting him perform a day earlier. Levelland Productions said it had to scramble to find a replacement act, and lost money in ticket sales. But the “I’m Different” rapper fired back in court docs Dec. 21, claiming that 2 Chainz’s no show amounted to a broken promise at worst, not fraud, and asked the suit to be dismissed. 2 Chainz said he genuinely believed he agreed to perform Sept. 11, not on his birthday Sept. 12, and was ready to do the show a day earlier. “This lawsuit arises out of a simple misunderstanding – a misunderstanding that the plaintiff now seeks to characterize as a ‘fraud,’” 2 Chainz’s court docs said. “After refusing to allow 2 Chainz to perform on the night he was available, plaintiff now seeks to turn the parties’ misunderstanding into a claim for fraud.” 2 Chainz’s answer also said the promoter’s lawsuit is flimsy because it isn’t specific enough on which member of 2 Chainz’s camp promised that he’d be there. It said the suit should’ve been filed in Atlanta, where all of the defendants live, instead of in Oklahoma. This isn’t the rapper’s first foray into a courtroom. Last month, he beat a defamation case from a North Carolina woman who claimed he ruined her life when he posted an unauthorized video of her with the hashtag #IsThatYoThot.
Singers Sued Kedar Entertainment For Botching Comeback Albums Fresh off of a court putting their old record company in default in their one million breach of contract case, Dru Hill will now have to justify why they deserve the megabucks judgment. A New York Federal court put Kedar Entertainment Group in default on Dru Hill’s case – which accused their former record company of bungling their comeback album and not paying them – because no one from the company ever responded to the suit. The singers said they signed deals with the company for two new albums, and Kedar promised to spend a minimum of $300,000 on promoting each one, 2010’s “InDRUpendence Day,” and Sisqo’s “Last Dragon,” which dropped earlier this year. But the suit said Kedar didn’t spend anywhere close to that amount, and in turn, Dru Hill lost millions in record sales, live shows and publishing profits. Dru Hill also complained that they never saw a dime of their advances and royalties from the records. Kedar Entertainment – headed by former Motown Records honcho Kedar Massenburg – had a month to answer Dru Hill’s lawsuit, but never did. BOSSIP’s attempts to reach Massenburg were unsuccessful. Now, Dru Hill’s lawyer, Lita Rosario, must explain to the judge why the men are entitled to the one million in damages. Lawyers for Kedar Entertainment could also appear and challenge the judgment as well. Only then will the judge make a ruling on the dollar amount. Besides a possible monetary award, the default also means that Dru Hill is no longer bound by their contracts with Kedar Entertainment.
