50 Cent Sued For Posting Sex Tape During Rick Ross Beef

A Florida woman says 50 unlawfully distributed a video of her during one of his Ross disses. By Gil Kaufman 50 Cent Photo: Rick Diamond/ Getty Images A Florida woman prominently featured in a homemade sex tape posted online by 50 Cent last year as part of his feud with Rick Ross has sued 50 (born Curtis Jackson) in New York City, claiming he unlawfully distributed the video over the Internet. According to The Associated Press, Lastonia Leviston filed the lawsuit on Wednesday in Manhattan, claiming unauthorized use of her name or image and emotional distress caused by the public release of a video she made with an unidentified man in 2008. In the tape, Leviston is seen showing off a tattoo on her chest with the initials “RR,” seemingly in reference to Ross, and 50 is heard providing exaggerated voice-over narration to the action in his wigged “Pimpin’ Curly” persona. In the lawsuit, Leviston claims the rapper posted the video on ThisIs50.com last year, blurring out the face of he man in the tape but not hers, and that 50 edited himself into the video. The New York Daily News, reported that Leviston claims she asked the man in the tape, Maurice Murray, to destroy it. He agreed, but then allegedly either gave or sold it to 50. In addition to airing on 50’s site, the video made it onto YouTube and other video-sharing sites and has been seen millions of times, the suit claims. Leviston also claims that 50 spoke about the video on a radio program and referred to her as a “call girl” in it. A spokesperson for 50 could not be reached for comment at press time. The release of the video was part of a long-running beef between 50 and Ross, which featured a number of dis-heavy mixtape songs , mocking animated videos and a clip in which 50 appeared with Tia Kemp , the mother of Ross’ son, who mocked her former partner.

Perez Hilton, Black Eyed Peas Manager Settle Lawsuit

The civil lawsuit stemming from a now-infamous scuffle last year between annoying celebrity gossip blogger Perez Hilton and hot-tempered Black Eyed Peas manager Polo Molina has been dropped. A Los Angeles Superior Court Judge agreed Tuesday to dismiss the lawsuit, brought by Hilton against the Peas’ road manager (real name Liborio Molina) after the two sides agreed on a settlement . Terms of the settlement were not officially revealed. The decision comes three months after a Toronto assault charge against Molina was dropped. A photo of the melee in which Perez’s clock was cleaned. In November, Molina formally apologized to Hilton for kicking his ass outside a Toronto nightclub following the Much Music Video Awards in June 2009. The violence occured after the blogger (real name is Mario Lavandeira), admittedly exchanged heated comments with Will.i.am earlier that night. The Peas were upset at Perez’s negative coverage of them. Hilton, who is openly gay, referred to will.i.am as a f****t. The punches began flying. As part of the agreement, Molina made a donation to the city’s Red Door Family Shelter and agreed not to contact Hilton except through their lawyers, not to carry any weapons for 12 months and not go near the club where the fight occurred.
