Not her face, though. The Queen Bee is currently in a legal battle with Canadian makeup artist Samantha Ravndahl, who claims the raptress took her creation (above) off of Reddit and used it online to promote her music…with zero credit to Samantha. Back in November, Sam sent a cease and desist for Kim to pull the image, but nothing happened. Now Samantha and her lawyer are preparing to sue for a $150k minimum. I’m not sure she really has a case, though, as it was only Instagram and the artwork for a single that wasn’t sold for profit. Also, a quick glance at Kimmy’s IG and I don’t see the photo anywhere. I’m thinking this won’t get too much further.
Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s Widow Issues Cease and Desist Letter To Rock The Bells Organizer
Earlier we reported Eazy-E and Ol’ Dirty Bastard would be performing at Rock The Bells, however his widow, Icelene Jones, who happens to be the administrator of his estate says she did not sign off on that. As administrator of his estate she owns the rights to his likeness, lyrics, and performances, and she says nobody at Rock The Bells contacted her about the hologram performance. Icelene Jones says she’s upset that nobody contacted her directly about the use of her husbands likeness, and she will be talking with Wu-Tang about this incident and coming up with a positive solution to bring her husband back to the stage. Hopefully they can get it together because seeing Ol’ Dirty once more on stage would be legendary for hip hop. Hit the jump for more.
