50 Cent and Tiffany Lighty had some business to- gether on Friday, but ended up making headlines after the daughter of the late Chris Lighty ended up marring the mogul’s expensive Lamborgh- ini.

A car was parked too close to the Lambo and Tiffany attempted to maneuver around it and was unsuccess- ful. She hit the car and even tore off the passenger side

The pair were shooting “In
the Light with Lighty,” Tiffany’s new show.
Comedian Chris Tucker's show at the Straz Center Friday Night was one of the best.
You can almost compare Tucker to the best that ever done it, Richard Pryor. Yeah we said it ! Tucker's
quick wit, stories about him- self (Richard Pryor like) and impersonations was truly hilarious.
Next time he comes to Tampa, don't miss him if you want to laugh.
Excellent show!

YG’s Shooting Caught On Tape
YG’s shooter has a big problem.
The attempt on the rap- per’s life was likely caught by security cameras.

The selection committee’s chair Maureen Waltz said
in a statement: ”We know that the new selections repre- sent the best of the entertain- ment industry and will be a great addition to the Walk of Fame for both the Hollywood community and fans from around the world who visit Hollywood every year.”
Chomping and stomping its way to box office infamy, Jurassic World took in $511.8 million dollars around the world this weekend, setting the record for biggest global opening of all time.
This is the first time a movie has grossed more than a half a billion dollars in one weekend, notes TheWrap - the previous record for a global opening weekend was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hal- lows Part 2 with $483.2 mil- lion. Directed by Colin Tevrorrow, and starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dal- las Howard, Jurassic World was number one in all 66 mar- kets it debuted, which in- cludes the United Kingdom, China, Russia, Australia and Mexico.
In the U.S., Jurassic World beat out Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron for biggest opening weekend this year, with $204 million versus Ultron's $191.3 million. This gives the dinosaur sequel the second best U.S. opening ever, behind 2012's Marvel's The Avengers, which captured $207 million during its open- ing weekend. If Sunday ends up being higher than pro- jected, it's possible Jurassic World will have the biggest opening domestically when the final tally is in on Monday.
Tyga’s been going through a lot of financial troubles lately.
Months ago, the “Rack City” rapper was served pa- pers from his landlord for $90k. Now, Tyga is is being sued for sexual assault from Allisa Brown.
Brown was a part of a 2011 music video shoot for Tyga’s single “Make It Nasty”.
Brown claimed she was plied with alcohol, forced to appear topless on camera, and dry humped by some dude in a rabbit suit.”

Pitbull Dragged Into Lawsuit Filed Against Akon
AKON AND PITBULL
TYGA
The Tyga and Brown case came to a settlement for $50k, but Brown has only received half from Tyga in February. There hasn’t been response from the rapper’s party.
Pitbull has been dragged into the $300K legal battle between Akon and an Egypt- ian singer over him not show- ing up to film a music video, and now the singer is prepar- ing to call the rapper to court.
Egyptian singer Tamer Hosny filed a federal lawsuit against Akon earlier this year, claiming he paid $300K to Akon to have both him and Pitbull feature on his new song along with appear- ing in his music video.
He explained that the song was delivered with both artists, but when it came time for the video Pitbull never
showed up. Hosny said he spent hundreds of thou- sands on the music video but Akon failed to hold up his promise to secure Pitbull for the shoot.
Akon fired back at the al- legations, explaining that he never had a written contract with Hosny – only a verbal agreement. He also says that he was never paid $300K for the agreement and bank records show he only re- ceived a total of $145K. He demanded Hosny’s lawsuit be thrown out, but a judge shot down Akon’s motion to dismiss the legal battle.
