Lauryn Hill Sued By Fashion Consultant For Keeping Clothes, Withholding Pay

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 09/26/2011 7:12 am Updated: 11/26/2011 4:12 am

Oh, Lauryn. Back in headlines again.

TMZ reported that Hill is being sued by a fashion consultant who lent the R&B singer clothing for her 2007 European tour... and never got all her money or the clothes back.

In a lawsuit filed in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, Hill snagged "an entire wardrobe of high fashion items" intended for four week which Hill kept for three months.

The store that provided the gear, Via Davia Vintage, also claims to have been paid only a fraction of what Hill owed them and only got back about 30 percent of the clothes.

It's just more drama for the singer, who was recently sued for verbally abusing one of her guitar players.

Then there was the Rohan Marley-Isabeli Fontana drama: if you recall, Hill was pregnant with her sixth child when Rohan Marley, father to her other children and presumed father of the sixth, made off with Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana, sparking critiques that Marley "abandoned" Hill.

The drama turned out to be not so dramatic at all, when Hill defended Marley and announced he was not the baby's father. But not before the media churned out plenty of negative stories and threw Hill, who has not released a full studio album since 1998, back in the headlines.

We're guessing this new lawsuit will do the same.

this "singer" (in my opinion r&bc is not music) Laurin hill is an AFRICAN / American from niger country I believe and someboddy told me that she is an AFRICAN / American from NIGER so they are experts to keep dollars, euros ect - look africans from niger (nigeria) and see how many emails they send you asking to "help them transfer milion of dollars, euros, from the ridicolous niger country to a normal country) they are ALL scams !!

so she "liked" the idea tpo keep clothes and the designer will pay the clothes for her
why not? hehhhe

It could all be so simple
But you'd rather make it hard
Loving you is like a battle
And we both end up with scars
Tell me, who I have to be
To get some reciprocity
No one loves you more than me
And no one ever will...

I still swoon when I hear those words....

reciprocity: a mutual exchange of privilages, especially a trade policy in which special advantages granted by one country in return for special advantages granted it by another....hummmm, you swoon because the song wants ..... the above defination. Someone just looked up a word that they figured no one would know the meaning.....but you know the meaning now, lol

Are you familiar with the song Ex-Factor?
Reciprocity in the song refers to responding to a positive action with another positive action.
