Rapper DMX raped in sleep, sued for $6 million

DMX
Monique Wayne of Prince George’s County filed a $6 million lawsuit last Thursday against rapper DMX, claiming he injured her reputation by claiming in a magazine interview that she raped him in his sleep.

If you read Sister 2 Sister magazine you would have seen the statements DMX made during an interview , and his statements have since been reported worldwide. Since then Monique Wayne has came back with the lawsuit in Prince George’s County Circuit Court claiming damages for defamation, false light, and unreasonable publicity to private life.

“Ms. Wayne has been completely ostracized. It’s a malicious and outrageous allegation,” said Wayne’s attorney Stephanie Moran. “These are serious allegations.”

Monique Wayne claims in the suit that the two had consensual sex after meeting at a D.C. night club in August 2003. She then became pregnant.

The child, Javon Micai Wayne, has since become the center of a drawn-out paternity and child support dispute.

DMX – born as Earl Simmons – has been ordered to pay $5,000 per month in child support in settlement of the custody suit.

China cancels concert by rapper Jay-Z

Jay-Z
Shanghai, China gives rapper Jay-Z the boot. A promoter stated that Jay-Z’s October 23rd concert was canceled because of vulgar language. A lot of people are wondering how could this be when China’s Culture Ministry allowed performances from acts such as The Rolling Stones, the Black Eyed Peas and others that contain sexually suggestive songs. Could it possible have to deal with his nickname he’s giving himself “Jay-hovah” which is considered an insult to Jehovah to some. There has also been statements made that it due to his lyrics about drugs, pimping and violence. Maybe it’s just a conflict with his schedule. Who knows..

However, there is notice posted on an online ticket booking site which says the concert had been postponed and that concert goers would be contacted as soon as a new date was set.
