Lady Gaga Faces Lawsuit on Japan Wristband Sales

Lady Gaga and her wristbands for Japan’s earthquake relief efforts seem to not have gone down the proper profit beneficiary channels . This has been the class action suit filed against the pop sensation  and the other companies involved in the sales and marketing of the “ We Pray for Japan”  wristbands.

The $5  white and red  rubber bands, whose sales and profits were supposedly promised by the singer to benefit the victims of  Japan’s earthquake, are now in question through allegations of  Michigan legal network, 1800 LAWFIRM. The law firm is also pinning charges on account of “artificially inflated reports of total donations” as well as overcharging buyers on shipping costs.

This entire lawsuit comes in the wake of reports that federal racketeering and consumer protection laws were being broken through deceptive advertising as well as misappropriation of profits from the sales of the wristbands.

The 25 yr. old singer’s official website does show a significant number of comments from fans who have expressed their disappointment on  the long delivery as well as shipping and handling costs  of more than the price of the said wristbands.  The lawsuit filed against the pop diva aims to shed light on any improprieties and ensure that the singer and her partnering companies appropriate the full donations to their  promised beneficiaries.

Steffani Germonatta, or also known in pop music as Lady Gaga herself – graced the pages of Forbes magazine  as the most powerful celebrity in the world.  She is currently doing her “Born this Way”  benefit concert tour in Japan. Sales from the rubber bracelets along with other marketing ventures have been reportedly donated to the earthquake victims totalling a whopping donation of $3 million.

Charlie Sheen Inks New Sitcom Deal?



(RadarOnline)

Is Charlie Sheen returning to network television?

RadarOnline reports that Sheen “has inked a deal with Lionsgate Television to create and star in a new sitcom,” and the new show has sparked a “bidding war” among networks, with TBS being the frontrunner.

The show is supposedly similar to “Two And a Half Men,” but will be “a lot racier.”

According an “insider” for the blog, Lionsgate has “committed to ten episodes up front with the option to pick-up and produce 90 more episodes if the ratings prove to be successful.”

However, Gossip Cop reached out to a Lionsgate rep, who declined comment about a deal being in place, and a TBS spokesperson says the network is “not in discussions” with Sheen for a possible project.

While it’s not out of the question that Sheen will one day return to TV, RadarOnline is off on this one.

Animals aren’t the only ones who love Russell Brand and Kristen Wiig.

PETA has named the two comedy stars The Sexiest Vegetarian Celebrities of 2011.

The pair beat out other meat-averse notables like Natalie Portman, Olivia Wilde, Anne Hathaway and Woody Harrelson.

Bridesmaids lead and “Saturday Night Live” veteran Wiig recently said that she’s made soy and tofu a major part of her diet.

For his part, Brand once said, “You shouldn’t eat animals. It’s mean to them.”

Last year, Wilde and “The Biggest Loser” trainer Bob Harper were picked as the hottest vegetarians.

“Survivor” host Jeff Probst is taking on a new challenge.

The Emmy winner will get his own daytime talk show on CBS in fall 2012.

“I’m fascinated with human nature and thrilled that this show will allow me the opportunity to connect with real people and explore their stories on a personal level,” said Probst in a statement.

He’s hosted all 22 seasons of “Survivor” since its 2000 debut.

There’s been no indication that he’ll leave the adventure reality series.

Probst is just the latest addition to a daytime TV landscape that’s changing rapidly, with Oprah and long-running soap operas leaving the air, Regis Philbin’s retirement from “Live!” and primetime news talent such as Katie Couric and Anderson Cooper launching daytime programs.
