Lisa Ellis is the former manager of Haitian-American hip-hop star Wyclef Jean. NY Daily News broke a story that the singer’s wife, Marie Claudinette, demanded that he rid himself of the manager after coming across a naked photo of Ms Ellis on her husband’s cell. Ouch!The jealous wife reportedly forwarded the nude pic, showing Lisa facing forward with her hands crossed over her nether regions, to several other people within the music industry, presumably to embarrass Ellis. In the ensuing fallout, the manager and Wyclef reportedly parted ways three weeks ago.
Lisa Ellis’ website indicates that, in addition to Wyclef Jean, she has been instrumental in developing, planning and branding artists Prince, Maxwell, Destiny’s Child, Beyonce, The Fugees, Lauryn Hill, John Legend, Nas, and Terrence Howard to name only a few. She previously held the position as Executive Vice President, Sony Music Label Group.
When asked about the situation, Ellis said: “Photographer Mark Baptiste took a portrait of me in December 2008 for an art book. It was tastefully done. Someone leaked the photo. I don’t know who did it, but the photo had nothing to do with my resignation as Wyclef Jean’s manager.”
The Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services has launched an investigation into an incident at the Jackson family home in Encino involving a stun gun.
Jermaine Jackson’s 13-year-old son, Jaafar Jackson, ordered a stun gun online that was delivered to the home two weeks ago. TMZ first reported the gun was confiscated by security shortly after it was delivered and locked up by Katherine Jackson when members of the team and Mrs. Jackson heard noises upstairs and found Jaafar with it in his bathroom, where he “tested it on a piece of paper.”
DCFS went to the Jackson family home last night, around 10:30, where they interviewed Katherine and several of the children and confiscated the stun gun.
It has since been reported by multiple sources that the children played with the stun gun for three days before it was discovered, and employees witnessed Jaafar pointing it at Michael Jackson’s youngest son, Blanket. Sources also say there was a second stun gun in the home.
Naomi Campbell is wanted for questioning by NYPD for allegedly slapping and punching her 27-year-old driver at 3:00 p.m. Tuesday afternoon in Manhattan.
The 39-year-old supermodel reportedly assaulted her driver by striking him with her fists and her cell phone, forcing him to pull his black Cadillac Escalade over to the curb in Midtown.
Campbell fled the scene on foot and is now wanted by police for questioning regarding the incident. They immediately began searching for the runaway model after the driver, suffering a bruised cheek, called 911 to report the attack.
Jeff Raymond, spokesman for the supermodel said, “Naomi will cooperate voluntarily, and there is more to the story than meets the eye.”
Campbell was arrested and sentenced to community service in 2006 for throwing a BlackBerry cell phone at her housekeeper during a fight. She was arrested again in 2008 for assaulting two police officers at London’s Heathrow airport. For that infraction, she was sentenced to 200 hours of community service and fined $4,500.
This growing pattern of violence would seem to suggest that the lovely Ms Campbell has anger issues.
