Settled

Remember when Brandy's mother filed that lawsuit against Kim Kardashian alleging she'd made $120,000 worth of unauthorized charges on the Norwood American Express card? Sonja said Kim had permission to use the card once in 2004, when she was hired as a stylist for Brandy and Ray J, but that the unauthorized charges popped up in 2007, suspiciously or not, after Kim and Ray J's sex tape was released. Anyway, the case was dismissed with prejudice on Monday after a settlement between the two parties was reached.

So, is "settlement" legal speak for Kim agreed to pay back the money?

Phony Braxton Acquitted

For those of you just joining us, Trina was hired to impersonate Toni Braxton for a show in Suriname. The only thing is, the promoter billed her as the real Toni and charged up to $53 a ticket. After being pelted with trash and booed off stage, Trina was arressted and jailed in Suriname for 3 months. When officials caught up with the promoter, who had been on the run for weeks, he told them Trina was in on the scam, but later retracted his statment. In the end, the judge ruled he couldn't be sure of Trina's involvement so he let her go. The promoter and his accomplice/girlfriend are expected to go on trial in July. "I'm delighted with the judge's decision," Trina told reporters outside the courtroom. "It was hard dealing with the situation knowing I was innocent. But now I just want to go back home and hug my family, my husband. I haven't seen them for so long."
