Lil’ Kim has been accused of stealing a picture of one of Reddit’s popular make-up artists and using it for commercial purposes. The Canadian female named Samantha Ravndahl claimed that the raptress used the picture as the cover art for her latest release.
The whole problem began after Ravndahl posted a creepy picture of herself in make-up depicting a skull with green and decaying skin. She wasn’t happy when she found out that the image appeared in Kim’s “Dead Gal Walking” a.k.a. “Hardcore 2K13” mixtape as well as in her social media accounts with a copyright logo added to it.
“Lil’ Kim took my photo and is using it as album art (might I add she took the liberty of adding her watermark over it on instagram),” Ravndahl posted her complaint on Reddit. She has already tried to contact Kim’s people and asked for financial settlement.
LIL KIM GOES IN ON WENDY WILLIAMS
Lil’ Kim has since removed her diss tweets but the damage is already done.
Wendy described Lil Kim’s new look to her audience during Hot Topics on her show, saying,
“Kim, in my mind, I knew your goal was always to look like La Toya Jackson. You’ve out-La Toya’d La Toya in your new look. Don’t blame Photoshopping, blame your plastic surgeon, girl.”
This is when ish got real…..
LIL KIM SUES FORMER LAWYER
Brooklyn-born rapper Lil’ Kim slapped her former lawyer and business partner with a $9 million lawsuit yesterday.
Kimberly Denise Jones, 38, accused attorney Sunny Barkats and pal Andrew Ro of swindling her out of “valuable trademark and branding rights” related to liquor, makeup, and fashion endorsements, according to a Manhattan Supreme Court suit.
Barkats promised to deliver “multimillion dollar deals for [Kim’s] brands in the cosmetic and perfume business,” the songstress claimed in the suit, but never delivered.
Barkats called the suit “another frivolous attempt by Lil’ Kim and her attorneys to get out of what is otherwise a binding agreement,” and predicted the court would toss her claim.
