Lil Jon is seeking $30 million from Larry Flynt Productions (Larry Flynt makes Hustler magazine). He is suing because they used "his name and likeness without permission for the adult film "Phat Tuesday"".
According to the rapper's lawsuit, LFP...acquired promotional onstage and backstage footage from another company, Category 5, which shot a February 2004 Lil Jon & the East Side Boyz concert in New Orleans.
Hustler Video then used the footage for "Phat Tuesday," a movie about five women who go to New Orleans for Mardi Gras and, in between having sex with men and each other, attend a Lil Jon concert. On the cover of the DVD package, the rapper's likeness is used in a composite photograph with two of the film's actresses, with the words, "Featuring Lil Jon, King of Crunk." Jon was unaware of this usage until the video was released in February, his suit says.I guess Larry Flynt has to learn the hard way, You can't skeet skeet with Lil Jon...unless Lil Jon gets paid.
