Bone Thug’s manager, Steve Lobel, is looking to hit LV where it hurts over an event they hosted that went awry:
A veteran rap and hip-hop manager who says he was hurt at Kanye West’s star-studded 30th birthday bash is suing luxury clothier Louis Vuitton, which hosted the event.
Steve Lobel, who oversees the Grammy-winning group Bone, Thugs-N-Harmony, was among the glitterati partying with West at Vuitton’s Fifth Ave. store on June 7, 2007, when a temporary panel fell off the wall onto his chrome dome, the suit charges.
Other high-profile revelers at the party included Rihanna, Sean (Puffy) Combs, Jay-Z, Usher and Mariah Carey.
Lobel is demanding unspecified damages from the company, who, he claims, used unstable wall panels to “obscure the store’s merchandise and create a club look.”
It’s the latest black eye for Louis Vuitton’s 57th St. location. In December, Harlem rapper Jim Jones landed behind bars after beating a friend of rival artist, Ne-Yo, inside the store.
A rep for Louis Vuitton declined to comment.
Nuccas are forever trying to sue somebody. America…SMH
