FOXX SETTLES SUIT WITH STYLIST
Actor JAMIE FOXX has reached a settlement with a disgruntled fashion stylist who was allegedly left unpaid after dressing the star for several high-profile celebrity events.
Freelance celebrity stylist Stacy Young filed her lawsuit against Foxx and his Foxxhole Records label in Los Angeles Superior Court in April (08).
She claims The Kingdom star never paid up after she picked his wardrobe for the BET Awards in June 2006 and then again in July of the same year for a series of publicity events for his film Miami Vice.
Foxx’s legal team denied the initial claims, insisting it was movie giant Universal Studios, not the star, who hired Young to style Foxx for his Miami Vice promotional work.
But, according to the complaint made by Young, Foxx had agreed to pay her $2,850 (£1,425)-a-day to dress him for the awards show and then a further $3,000 (£1,500)-a-day for what the court documents refer to as the "Miami Vice agreement".
However, the pair seem to have come to a resolution, with a settlement being reached in Los Angeles on Wednesday (11Jun08) for an undisclosed amount. Young’s lawyers state they are "pleased" with the agreed settlement, according to online reports. Foxx’s representative was unavailable for comment as WENN goes to press.
