Last year, Rihanna filed a suit against her former money managers, Berdon,stating that they mismanaged her funds and owed her money. However, they responded saying they don’t owe her anything and she’s the one who was squandering her own money.
According to TMZ, Berdon has, for months, been trying to get Rihanna and her team to sit down for an official deposition to try to come to an agreement, but she has yet to show up. In November 2012, she was given an extension but for the other times – January 2013, May 8th and 9th and June 19th – she avoided the date, said she had concerts and said she was sick, respectively.
Berdon said it is time to hit Rihanna where it hurts: in her pockets. They say that on June 19th, specifically, they don’t believe she was sick because not only was she tweeting, but she also performed with seemingly no problems the day before and after the scheduled deposition. The firm says they went out of their way to accommodate her schedule and spent about $100,000 (N16 million)doing so and she ended up canceling.
They are asking that the lawsuit finally be thrown out and they’re asking that they fine her the $100,000 they lost in the June arrangements. Oh Rih Rih. I hope her current team is not just smiling and nodding at everything she does, but rather advising her very explicitly about business when it starts to get ugly.
