Last week Jay Z amended his defamation of character lawsuit against Houston attorney Tony Buzbee and his Jane Doe client, accusing Jane of continuing to claim she was rxped by Jay when she was a minor, despite dropping her lawsuit [click here if you missed that].
Jay has added another amendment listing over $150 million in losses due to the claims...

The revised complaint reveals that Jay “lost other contracts in the sports and entertainment space that would have generated revenues of, at least, $20 million,” which would have cost “many millions of dollars” more if the contract had been carried out.
The music mogul was also denied a $55 million personal credit line, and his 50 percent-owned consumer company, Roc Nation was denied a $115 million loan.
“We have agreements to produce entertainment programs for certain sporting events,” the complaint says. “After Mr. Buzbee filed the lawsuit, the media reported that other businesses could end their deals with Roc Nation, and forced one to speak out and address whether these false allegations would end our business relationship."
In early March, Jay sued Doe for defamation after Buzbee voluntarily dismissed her sexµal assault case in February. Jay also filed a defamation suit against Buzbee.
In a declaration filed in early February, Jay first alleged that her lawsuit led to a $20 million loss in income. This is the same filing where Jay-Z slammed Buzbee and Doe for moving forward with a “false lawsuit” and making “false public statements,” both of which he said affected his livelilhood.
