Last month, a source tipped off Sandrarose.com that Antonia Wright’s husband, Memphitz, was about to file a lawsuit against pseudo-singer K Michelle and VH1 for defamation of character. After giving the aforementioned individuals a chance to settle out of court, the lawsuit was filed today.
According to his attorney, Memphitz, real name Mickey Wright, is suing K. Michelle for defamation of character after she claimed he spent her entire recording budget and beat her to within an inch of her life. K. Michelle hurled the accusations as a cast member on VH1’s hit show Love & Hip Hop.
Included in the lawsuit are Mona Scott Young’s company Monami Entertainment and VH1’s parent company Viacom. Memphitz is asking for $1 per viewer of the episodes in which K. Michelle brought up his name. At a minimum, that’s $3-8 million — if he wins the suit.
As you probably already know, Mona Scott attempted to cast Memphitz in Love & Hip Hop Atlanta which would have eliminated any threats of lawsuits arising from the show — at least against VH1.
But Memphitz wisely declined to participate in the show.
Memphitz married Tiny & Toya star Antonia Wright in 2011 after a brief courtship.
In 2010, Toya’s daughter, Reginae, (by rapper Lil Wayne) was overheard saying Memphitz threatened to smack up a youngster who pushed Reginae at school. Toya vigorously denied the story that Memphitz threatened the young boy.
