Nine former contestants are banding together to sue American Idol, claiming they were all FORCED off “Idol” as part of a racist (and illegal) plot to boost ratings.
James H. Freeman-the attorney representing the contestants- conducted an investigation into the show and found that producers had only publicly disqualified 9 other people from the show since it first hit the air … and they all happened to be black.
Freeman now alleges that “Idol” has been conducting a “cruel and inhumane” scheme to exploit and humiliate black contestants for ratings”.

Just because she’s a public figure doesn’t mean the public gets to examine Britney Spears‘ medical history.
That’s according to a Los Angeles judge, who has denied a request from a company called Brand Sense to gain access to the popster’s medical information in an effort to collect evidence for a lawsuit it’s bringing against Spears over a perfume deal.
Something stinks here.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Reva Goetz ruled that Brand Sense lacked standing to bring the request, not to mention the records were protected by privacy statutes.
Brand Sense sued the Oops! girl in March for $10 million, claiming her camp went behind its back and got the company out of a 35 percent cut of the royalties from Britney’s Elizabeth Arden fragrance deal.

If you were visiting Lady Gaga’s account on YouTube and came across the message ”This account has been suspended due to multiple or severe violations of YouTube’s Copyright Policy” it is not a joke. The reason for this is that she posted footage from her recent appearance on the Japanese show “SMAP x SMAP” and didn’t secure the digital rights.
There hasn’t been a comment from Lady Gaga or her team yet. She tweeted a picture of her and the band before it aired in Japan.
