A CREDIT card company has sued singer Courtney Love, claiming she owes more than $350,000.
In court papers filed in Los Angeles, American Express said it had suspended Loves Amex Gold card after she failed and refused to make payments. Lawyers for Love was not available for comment. In March, the singer was sued by a fashion designer over messages she posted on the internet. American Express is seeking $352,059 for the unpaid balance, as well as damages and lawyers fees. BBC
In court papers filed earlier this year, also in Los Angeles, fashion designer Dawn Simorangkir said Love made several menacing and disturbing statements about her on the singers Twitter and MySpace pages.
The legal action accuses Love of libel, invasion of privacy, interfering with Ms Simorangkirs business, causing emotional distress and breach of contract, according to Reuters. Ms Simorangkir is seeking damages, with the amount to be set at trial. BBC
