... more $ outta my man's pocket. I swear he needs to tighten up. The 3121 Perfume could've been a big seller and a very good opportunity for P to promo it and his music. I was in attendance for the Macy's show for the perfume. It was great and I'll never forget it but, he set himself up for this. 
Thanks for the article, sis

Subject: [ChiTownGeneration] Judge Telling Prince to Pay $4 Million in Perfume Lawsuit
Just posting 4 the pic..j  Judge Telling Prince to Pay $4 Million in Perfume Lawsuit Kevin Mazur/Getty ImagesThat stinks. Back in November 2008, Prince was slapped with a lawsuit from Revelations Perfume and Cosmetics Inc. who went after the singer and Universal Music Publishing Group for $100,000, claiming they failed to help push a fragrance inspired by his 2006 album 3121. Well, they got a lot more than that. According to the New York Law Journal, the company was awarded $3.9 million to cover expenditures it had made in reliance on Prince's commitment to promote the perfume, 3121. However, no money is being forked over just yet. The final decision would have to be confirmed by another judge. The "Purple Rain" singer's lawyer tells the Journal that they will fight to keep the suggested amount from being confirmed. Revelations spent over $2.5 million for licensing privileges and agreed to give Universal a 50 percent cut of the proceeds. In return, Prince was expected to help market the fragrance. The company's lawyer states that Prince's refusal to give media interviews and stage in-store events forced the cancellation of the licensing agreement because Revelations failed to meet minimum sales requirements. "Since July 2007, despite repeated attempts by Revelations there have been virtually no communications from anyone who could commit to or coordinate any promotional efforts by Prince," the suit states. "Happy is the way 2 meet your burdens No matter how heavy or dark the day Pity on those with no hope 4 2morrow It's never as bad as it seems until we say" ~Prince 1996~ |
