Queen Bee accused of demanding different deal.

Brookland Media has filed a $2 million lawsuit against rapper Lil’ Kim after she allegedly refused to perform contractual obligations. Among the Queen Bee’s alleged demands was a reported insistence that performers Wyclef and Akon be included on her production team. Brookland alleges that it invested $250,000 in Kim and her CD. The company won an injunction to temporarily stop the rapper from talking with other record labels.
Wendy Williams claims platinum performer’s spouse cheated on cam. TV and broadcast gossip queen Wendy Williams says she’ll sell to the highest bidder a sex tape that depicts a rapper’s wife caught in the act of cheating. Tongues are wagging and Web discussion boards are filling with comments because Williams hasn’t revealed the rapper’s identity, nor his wife’s. “Boy, is it clear as day,” she says of the video that was allegedly recorded when the wife was at a resort with her alleged lover. Williams and her co-host speculated on her show this week about various gossip sites that may want to buy the tape. But perhaps her biggest hint? “50 (Cent) might want it.”

W. examines roles of Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice. Actor Jeffrey Wright and actress Thandie Newton play a current and former U.S. secretary of state in a forthcoming film that’s getting little advance praise. Director Oliver Stone’s W., a biopic about President George W. Bush, “plays like a TV movie,” according to The Guardian newspaper in Britain. Wright portrays Colin Powell, with Newton as Condoleezza Rice in the movie that premiers Oct. 17. Despite criticism of the work, Josh Brolin is receiving high marks for his portrayal of Bush.
