Toni Braxton

is suing Lloyd's of London because they won't pay out on her unemployment claim. Back in 2006 Toni signed on as the resident headliner at the Flamingo in Las Vegas. Toni played the venue for a few months, cancelled more than a few shows, and after being hospitalized one night with breathing problems, quit the show all together and blamed it on the Pericarditis she'd been diagnosed with after the birth of her second child. Toni is suing Lloyd's because she says she bought "non-appearance" and "cancellation" insurance and says Lloyd's owes her for the 9 months left on her contract when she quit, while Lloyd's says Toni had an undisclosed, pre-existing condition so they aren't liable.
