According to
TMZ, the CEO of Megalectrics, Chris Ubosi and his company, are suing RiRi over
a 2013 concert that never happened. Ubosi says he struck a deal with 2 people
who
claimed to represent Rihanna, as well as her label Roc Nation and Jay Z.
Rihanna would get $425,000 to play for 65 minutes.
Ubosi allegedly
forwarded Roc Nation $160,000, to secure the date, according to the Manhattan
civil suit. But the month she was due to arrive, Rihanna’s reps said they would
have to reschedule. Ubosi says he agreed, but only if Rihanna posted the new
date on social media.
In the suit, he
says that never happened so Megalectrics pulled the plug, and demanded its
money back. Since Ubosi didn't get the cash, he's suing Rihanna, Jay Z and Roc
Nation. Sources close to Rihanna however told TMZ that her management knew
nothing about the gig and the singer never collected a dime.
A rep for Roc
Nation also said: "Rihanna, Roc Nation nor anyone associated personally or
professionally with either party was in contact with this person. Unfortunately
it was a scam’’
