Update: Dru Hill $1 Million Breach Of Contract Case Not Over Yet

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.

NBC’s Primetime Playboy Show May Feature Actual Nudity

Considering the world only recently recovered from Janet Jackson ‘s Super Bowl boob back in 2004, it’s probably futile to get your hopes up about seeing any actual boob or butt on the upcoming NBC drama Playboy , set in the friendly confines of the Playboy Mansion back in the swinging 60’s. But Variety reports that female lead Amber Heard and other cast members have signed a nudity clause in their contracts similar to those used on pay-cable shows like Californication , which is “virtually unheard of in broadcast.” The most likely scenario is that nude scenes will be filmed, removed for primetime, and added back in for the “unrated” DVD release. But back in January newly installed NBC programming chief Bob Greenblatt told the New York Post that he intended to “push the envelope as far as his new [Comcast] bosses will let him”, so it will be a skinteresting ride at least. Stay tuned to the Mr. Skin blog for the newest, nudest updates on Playboy as they unfold!
