From Radar Online
Mel B's ex-husband, Stephen Belafonte, is facing a lawsuit from singer Malu Trevejo, who claims she was swindled into a contract that was one-sided in his favor.
RadarOnline.com has discovered the social media personality believes he misrepresented himself as a talent agent who could help advance her career.
She claimed to have been caught up into a binding deal after Belafonte discovered her in 2020 and said they should collaborate professionally.
Trevejo also has issues with his handling of her cash, according to a January 18 report, alleging that Belafonte once rented a luxury Beverly Hills home in 2021 with her money.
According to the filing, he lied and insisted the lease was only for a few months when it was actually for a year without her knowledge. Trevejo said there was a portion of time Belafonte allegedly used the place for himself on her dime.
Another instance of alleged fraud that Trevejo came forward with was in regards to a $400k loan she claims Belafonte lent her through a friend before allegedly hiking up the interest.
The Hasta Luego performer wants a jury to decide on her case, while Belafonte has not yet responded to her filing.
She is suing for fraud, conversion, conspiracy, theft, misappropriation, breach of fiduciary duty, and more.
