Chris Brown and Drake might have to pay a hefty price for their brawl over Rihanna. The owner of a New York City nightclub sued the hip-hop stars for $16 million on Wednesday, The New York Daily News reports, claiming the fight that left seven people injured was all their fault.

Brown and Drake "began to fight violently with each other" according to the suit. "Each ordered his security personnel, bodyguards, friends and entourage to join the fight. Defendants overran the nightclub's extensive security measures and the brawl overtook the entire space. Terrorized patrons ran for cover...most were unable to protect themselves," the lawsuit continues. Brown and Drake "should have foreseen that their notoriety and celebrity would ensure that their acts had far reaching and devastating effects."

Basketball star Tony Parker, whose left eye was hit by flying glass, has filed a $20 million lawsuit against the club, according to the News. Other alleged victims have also filed suits, and the club says it lost out on a $4 million licensing deal. Do you think Chris Brown and Drake should pay up? Or does this suit go too far?

It's time celebrities were put in their place. Famous or not, they need to be reminded that they are just two more people who need to take their drama somewhere else, away from law-abiding citizens, or else control themselves altogether. I'm sick of punks like these guys stepping on other people and thinking it's OK.

Milk the morons for all they have.

"Celebrities" should be kept in a vault and only let out to do movies, TV, concerts and such.
Other, non productive sorts such as Hiltons or Kardashians, should just be dumped st sea.

Why isn't Rihanna suing Chris Brown for beating her up? I would love to sit on the jury on that case. She would get all his money and he would get life imprisonment in Guantanamo Bay. Rihanna, please call a lawyer!

I'm not seeing why it's 16 million dollars though.

That's a bit much.

Not by charging 2 guys 16 million dollars just because those guys are rich.

reply
Tannenb... to Jada_Ringo 2012/08/24 23:11:33

The charges aren't just targeting a couple rich guys; the charges are targeting a couple rich guys who caused inappropriate behavior and got people hurt; it's only natural that the charges be adequate to make sure these jerks reconsider should they be confronted with similar choices.

reply
Jada_Ringo to Tannenb... 2012/08/25 00:00:45

The owner is suing for damages, minor injuries to 7 people, and a$4 million licensing deal. That does not add up to $16 million. They shouldn't be sued more money just because they make more money. They should be sued the same amount of money of someone of middle class or lower class.

Come on folks. It's a P.R. Stunt. It's called tabloid culture. The guys look tough so they can appeal to men and for women who like bad boy. Rihanna becomes the center of a love triangle like an old chivalric short story, which keeps her name in the headlines as well. A win/win for all involved.
