LaChapelle Suing Rhianna

David LaChapelle, the great photographer of our time, is suing Rhianna over her video for ‘S&M’. LaChapelle said that Rhianna’s video had appropriated eight of his images into the video and copied the “composition, total concept, feel, tone, mood, theme, colors, props, settings, decors, wardrobe and lighting” of his work.

No word on how much he is suing for which sounds like he will settle out of court most likely.

Clarkson, Ke$ha, Gaga, JT Music Stolen

You gotta love the young ones for creativity. An 18 year old has been BUSTED for hacking and stealing songs from Kelly Clarkson, Ke$ha, Justin Timberlake and Lady Gaga then selling them online to make some dough. How about $13,000 worth? The 18 year old is from Duisburg, German and STILL lives with his parents. He goes by the name of ‘DJ Stolen’ ( real name Deniz A.) and had a 23 year old accomplice (Christian M.) that he says “I haven’t heard from him for a while.”

Apparently he had attached a Trojan (no not the condom) to an MP3 file that was sent to the official addresses of the music stars, their managers and their record companies.

He says “I’m a fan and I just wanted to have cool music. I’m no blackmailer.”

If convicted he could be sentenced up to five years in prison.
