FORMER POP STAR SUES GAGA’S MUSICAL DIRECTOR
Pop star-turned-record executive GERARDO MEJIA is suing LADY GAGA’s musical director over a business dispute.
The Latin rapper/singer, who became an executive for Interscope Records after stepping out of the spotlight, claims he helped Fernando Garibay find fame as a music producer and DJ, and is owed a portion of a lucrative deal he set up for him in 2007.
He has filed a lawsuit against Garibay, who worked on Gaga’s Born This Way album, in Los Angeles claiming he gave up his job in 2004 to become his protege’s manager and he is now demanding at least $4 million (£2.7 million) in compensation, according to TMZ.com.
Garibay has also worked with stars including Britney Spears, Sting and Enrique Iglesias.
