Brandy’s Week Not Getting Any Better Anytime Soon
The Smoking Gun has the details of the wrongful-death lawsuit filed yesterday against singer-actress Brandy, who was involved in an auto fatality in Los Angeles last month when her car struck another vehicle, sending it into traffic. The complaint–filed by the victim’s family–asks for $50 million, and it will no doubt rankle the civil-rights organization that claims Brandy is being unfairly targeted because of her fame (this TMZ.com story has those details, not to mention all the intelligent comments-section back-and-forth you’d expect from a celebrity-gossip site when the topic of race is brought up).
As for the tactful question of how this will affect her music career, it’s hard to say: Brandy’s last album, 2004’s Afrodisiac, was her weakest-selling effort, and while Wikipedia claims she has another record slated for this year, don’t expect to hear it anytime soon. And we’re guessing that her talent-judge slot on America’s Got Talent might be up for grabs, as well.
