Lindsay Lohan Sued For Stealing Fake Tan Trade Secrets
The first time Lindsay Lohan was ever accused of stealing, it was by an unattractive female DJ who then pretended she couldn't find her heart. The next time she was accused of stealing it was by the Mexican government - who claimed they couldn't find Monterrey or three of its suburbs after she stayed there for a long weekend. The third time she was accused of stealing, allegations included allusions to corporate espionage and reports of illicit Hollywood spray tans. That last one - it's unfolding even as we speak.

Lawsuits Against Michael Jackson Finally Surpass The Zillion Dollar Mark
It's no secret that everybody wants a piece of Michael Jackson - granted the pieces people generally envision themselves having are little chunks of nose in a sandwich bag or the darker skin he used to always wear in the 80s. The latter we think would look great spread out in front of our gas-powered fireplace. But not everybody aims to have Jackson's skin stored somewhere in their house. No - some people would rather have his money. Take his old PR rep for instance - she's currently suing him for 44 million dollars.

Prince Gets Sued By Disgruntled Perfume People
This is just a hunch, but we get the feeling that Prince smells like a mixture of hair lacquer, stale jism and very old ladies. And we don't know about you, but that's a smell we'd love to imitate - that way people might think we're a tiny androgynous control freak with no real sense of quality control, too. Oh, why can't Prince ever get around to creating his own perfume? Why? What's that? Prince did create his own perfume last year? But it didn't really sell because Prince refused to promote it? And now the makers of the perfume are suing Prince because they're unhappy with his lack of cooperation? Oh. You do realise that we were only joking back there, don't you? We don't really want to smell like Prince. That'd be quite creepy. Who'd want to do that?

Michael Jackson Gets Sued By Disgruntled Sheikh
Michael Jackson's friendships always fail - usually they're soured by an unproved accusation of molestation or something. But at other times Michael Jackson falls out with people because he goes to live with them and then doesn't pay his way. That's the case with Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa of Bahrain, who's suing Michael Jackson for taking an advance on a recording contract and not seeing it through, amongst other things. Apparently Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa paid Michael Jackson a $7 million advance for his participation in a joint recording project that never happened. Some observers are claiming that this lawsuit could spell financial ruin for Michael Jackson. However, given that the alternative is the release of an album of duets by Michael Jackson and a rapping sheikh, that's something we'd be absolutely happy to live with.

Keanu Reeves Didn’t Run Over A Paparazzo, Says Keanu Reeves
You rarely see paparazzi pictures of Keanu Reeves, and that's because the paparazzi are terrified of Keanu Reeves squishing them into liquid with his car. Or it's because Keanu Reeves is quite private and stuff. One or the other. But photographer Alison Silva probably thinks it's the first one, because he's suing Keanu Reeves for allegedly hitting him with his car last year, causing career-threatening injuries to his wrist which, coupled with the fact that he's got a girl's name, must have really ticked him off. But yesterday Keanu Reeves showed up in court to spread some of the trademark Keanu Reeves moviestar razzle dazzle around and convince everyone otherwise. Sadly, the Keanu Reeves version of razzle dazzle involves standing around looking blank-faced and a bit confused and occasionally saying "woah." We aren't anticipating a good outcome for him.

Alleged: Terrence Howard Beats Up Guy Without The Aid Of Flying Robot Suit
Terrence Howard is getting sued for a gigantic chunk of change by a music composer that says Howard assaulted him like a year ago or something. The Iron Man star is totally getting sued by a guy that claims to have been on the knuckle end of an encounter with him last winter. Terrence Howard is getting sued by music composer Andrew "Tex" Allen for five million dollars, which is ironic because that's the exact amount Howard was gonna get for Iron Man II. Talk about coincidence. Howard and Allen were both working on a Broadway play called Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, which, as we understand it, revolves around a very poor family that makes a fortune selling feline bacon cooked in an 'out of the box' sort of way. We don't have the recipe.

Lindsay Lohan Sued For Something From Back When She Was Fun
Older readers, if they cast their minds right back, may remember a time when Lindsay Lohan was, you know, interesting. Really interesting, too - there wasn't any of this 'occasional blogging about her implied lesbianism' malarkey going on back then. Because, back then, Lindsay Lohan could hardly go a day without getting hammered on one substance or another and driving around all over the place like a cackling bug-eyed lunatic until she was arrested. It was fun. But if you can't remember that, you soon will - because some peripheral characters from one of these bug-eyed driving encounters have decided to sue Lindsay Lohan for causing them 'surprise, shock, fear and panic'. Well, hey, we've seen the trailer for I Know Who Killed Me - and if fear and panic are legitimate reasons for suing Lindsay Lohan, then we'll just go and put a downpayment on that hillside mansion right now.

Lil’ Kim Sued By Odd People Who Want A New Lil’ Kim Album
As a female rapper, it's Lil' Kim's civic duty to get in as much trouble as humanly possibly, but we don't get the feeling she's hungry for it any more. Back in the old days Lil' Kim could usually be relied on to cause a ruckus by lying about shootings and getting sent to jail for it or whatnot but, now that she's a little bit older, Lil' Kim seems to have taken her eye off the balls. Sure, Lil' Kim still gets in trouble, but only for not delivering albums she's been paid to make. As such, Lil' Kim is being sued by her record label. Although a little lawsuit might not seem like much, it's actually an indication of something far far worse than any of us could have ever imagined - there are a handful of people on earth who actually want to hear a new Lil' Kim album. We're scared. Hold us.
