Pacquiao Sued Over Music for $10 Million

17 Nov

Manny Pacquiao just got smacked with a $10 million lawsuit–but not for beating an ex-girlfriend or body-guard (Floyd Mayweather Jr.)– instead for allegedly cheating a company that hired him to record music. RBM Group International filed a lawsuit today against the boxer in a Los Angeles County Superior Court. The suit alleges that the pound-for-pound champ signed a contract in 2009 where he promised to record 12 songs but never did. According to TMZ, in the court documents the RBM Group claims they gave Pacquiao a $40,000 check in October, 2009, which he deposited in return for the first two songs. But apparently, Manny has refused to record the music. RBM claims they are out-of-pocket $200,000 and lost potential profits in the amount of $10 million.
