Mona Scott Young Slapped With $50 Million Lawsuit: Copyright Infringement, Fraud & Breach
Another day, another lawsuit. Mona Scott-Young, one of the executive producer’s behind the Love & Hip Hop franchise is being hit with a pretty hefty lawsuit. 8th Wonder Entertainment, Nicki Lum-Davis and Trisha Lum are suing Mona’s production company, Monami, for $50 million dollars. VH1 and Viacom are also named.
We’ve combed through the court documents, compliments of Tattle Tailzz, and in short, the lawsuit centers copyright infringement , fraud, and breach of contract, breach of confidence for the idea of “Love & Hip Hop” reality show.
According to court documents, the original show was called ‘Hip Hop Wives‘. Similar to shows like Basketball Wives and the Real Housewives franchises, the show would focus on the women associated with hip hop stars and rappers. The initial cast members included Tashera Simmons (the now ex-wife of DMX), Chrissy Lampkin (fiance of rapper Jim Jones), Mashonda Tifere (the now ex-wife of producer Swizz Beatz) and Debbie Lorenzo (the new ex-wife of Irv Gotti).
The plaintiff claims that Mona, Vh1 and all parties involved in their initial pitch meeting stole their concept and created the Love & Hip Hop franchise, which as we know became an instant success. They claim that before their project was greenlit, Chrissy pulled out of their agreement, joining forces with Mona and Vh1. The lawsuit was filed Monday March 10th, 2014. To date, there has been no official response and while in litigation it’s highly unlikely that anyone involved will make public comment. Click here to read the court documents. Story developing.

SMH. People ALWAYS come with these lawsuits when some idea or anything becomes a huge success. If Mona was not as successful as she is, if she were still in the “trying days”, with no money & no hit show, these people would still be sitting WITH her trying to come up with something that’ll pop off successfully. Love & Hip Hop has been on & poppin’ for all these years, why are they JUST NOW coming with a lawsuit???
LOL oh boy ….. I might’ve “spoken” too fast …. I just read the legal document (Complaint) & now I have different thoughts (and cant delete my previous post dayum LOL). There seems to be some “fcukery afoot” in all this mess (in Mona’s camp perhaps??) — but either way, whoever was wronged, I hope they get what they deserve for their original ideas & talents …..
It’s called theft it happens in the entertainment industry all of the time. I’d wait until I heard more before I accused anybody of filing a frivolous suit. I believe it, in the entertainment industry people are always tryna get paid of someone’s work without paying for it or paying very little. Especially when they have money and good lawyers,look at the Gaye family vs. Farrel and Robin Thicke. They thought they were too big but not! 14 Millys later they have to pay…
Sometimes it pays to research information before jumping off the roof without a parachute!!!
Oh SHUT THE FCUK UP. Somebody always has to come on the scene acting like they’re above error & shaking their dirty fingers at somebody with “corrections”. You can keep your sickening a**zz comments to yourself & go try to make somebody ELSE feel stupid with your negative sht. Anybody could make a statement & find out some other details later & change their mind, it’s no big deal. What YOU SHOULD do is take that same funky & greasy finger that you’re so busy trying to point at ME & shove it up your a**zz you ignorant F@GG0T.
Mona get ready to pay up because it sounds like the ladies do have a valid point/law suit. I hope they get what’s due to them. People need to stop stealing people ideas and create they on.
I remember that initial show with Tashera, Deb, & Irv. It seems like it was only like 4 episodes. Deb & Irv living seepage lives was the focal point.
Likewise, if you’re considering doing offline copies, it is certainly an understanding. But that won’t help Sparring floor Honan if your choice as well as scarier climate happenned: The idea that the hackers dismissed his or her equipment is simply not often the most severe which could take place. At the least Mat understood he has hacked a couple of minutes immediately after currently being jeopardized. What in the event the cyberpunks have been far more devious? They might possess disguised . the belief that he is hacked as well as slowly accumulate his or her information information over the long period of the time. With one of these secretly lost username details, the particular cyber criminals would have slowly destroyed his lifetime (eg get a loan in his name, throw away crimes together with information, work with his or her current account being a pantoufle bear in mind that laundering). Will probably be much more to be able to cure this sort of ‘slow‘ crack. In this specific choice circumstance, bac ups more than likely spend less him. Quality guy have a much more diabolical problem!
