Britney Spears Lawsuit: Sued for $141k

15 Dec

Can you believe it costs $303,900 to provide Britney Spears with a full-time 365-day security detail???

TMZ is reporting that her former protectors who claim the pop star’s people screwed them out of half-a-year’s pay, have sued the starlet.

The people who run Britney’s estate are being sued  by Advanced Security Concepts Corporation — claiming Team Spears never paid them more than $140k in fees … after they kicked the bodyguard company to the curb back in 2010.

ASCC claims Team Spears has been unfairly holding a grudge against it ever since one of their former bodyguards, Fernando Flores, filed a lawsuit against Britney last year … accusing her of multiple instances of genital-exposing sexual harassment. Britney has denied the allegations.

But in the lawsuit, ASCC claims Team Spears demanded the company cover Britney’s legal expenses in the case — even though they weren’t obligated to put up the cash.

ASCC claims Britney’s people not only fired them after the stand-off — but they refused to fork over a check for $141,625.00 … the remainder of a 1-year contract which Brit’s camp had previously agreed to pay out whether or not they actually used the security service.

24 Oct

One of the stars of R&B group B2K is being sued by the State of California for more than a million dollars for allegedly operating an illegal marijuana dispensary in L.A. … TMZ  reported over the weekend.

Police believe 25-year-old Dreux Pierre Frederic — aka Lil’ Fizz — is one of the owners of the Little Amsterdam weed shop in West Hollywood, CA., which has been open for business since 2008.
