Paying the bills in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…
• A judge ordered O.J. Simpson to hand over loot that a Florida lawyer was holding for him in order to pay Ron Goldman’s family for the $33.5 million wrongful death judgment. The Florida lawyer is probably holding about $3,500. Which would reduce the amount owed to roughly $33.5 million.
• Rapper Eve pleaded not guilty to DUI charges stemming from an April 26 car accident in Hollywood. The artist drove her Maserati into a concrete center median at 2:40 am with a blood-alcohol level of at least .08 and no proof of insurance. Gee, she must have been drunk when pleading not guilty.
• A millionaire couple in New York were charged with slavery for allegedly keeping two female Indonesian housekeepers confined for years. According to prosecutors, the women were beaten, burned with scalding water and forced to climb stairs as punishment for misdeeds. What’s the big deal? Naomi Campbell has done worse than that to hired help.
• WPP Group shareholders will pay $2 million in legal expenses for advertising honcho Martin Sorrell’s libel suit against Italian ad executives who allegedly called him a “mad dwarf.” What’s the big deal? Adman and blogger George Parker has called Sorrell far worse than that. Also, are the shareholders possibly named Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Happy, Sleepy and Sneezy—with Sorrell aka Grumpy?
i had to WPP stock for a minute... less than 100 shares... but you wanna talk about spoiled arrogant egomaniacs? I give you The Brothers Sorrell.
