Evans Sued Over Notorious B.i.g. Clips

Bosses at Kaushi Entertainment claim they paid $30,000 (£18,750) for homemade movies featuring the hip-hop star, real name Christopher Wallace, in a deal approved by Evans, according to a lawsuit filed at Los Angeles County Superior Court on Tuesday (23Feb10).

The clips were to be used in a documentary about the rapper, who was shot dead in 1997.

The production company's executives insist they never received the tapes - and now they're suing Evans as well as Wallace's estate for $1 million (£625,000) and punitive damages for breach of contract.
