Monday Memo

The film "The Possession" topped the weekend box office, earning over $17 million. "Lawless", "The Expendables 2", "The Bourne Legacy" and "ParaNorman" round out the top five films of the week. Rapper Lil Wayne is suing producer Quincy Jones 3 for using his music in a documentary without permission. The rapper allowed the producer to follow him around with cameras while filming a documentary about the New Orleans native's life and career, but apparently is not pleased with the finished product. We'll see what happens with the case. The mother of singer Chris Brown is not at all pleased with the kiss between her son and singer Rihanna at the VMAs. As mentioned, the two reconciled during a moment that wasn't seen on television, but was caught on VH1's behind the scenes cameras. No comment from Brown or Rihanna. Singer R. Kelly is in trouble with the IRS again. After forking over millions for unpaid taxes in 2005, Kelly still owes Uncle Sam for unpaid taxes from 2011. Kelly may get the funds from an upcoming tour, provided he stays healthy enough to tour. We'll see. The husband of "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" star Rasheeda apparently has a huge skeleton in his closet. Rumor has it that he father a child outside the marriage with the daughter of a former flame. While there's been no comment from either regarding the matter, let's hope that it's not true. Rapper Gucci Man is out $60,000. He was ordered by a judge to pay the woman he pushed out of his moving Hummer $60,000 for her injuries. The rapper was sent to prison last September on a batter charge after pushing the woman out of his car when she rejected his sexual advances. He was released in December. The independent music website Pitchfork has pulled a video it posted of Chicago rapper Chief Keef where the teen rapper is shown firing guns at a gun range.The video, first released in the spring, drew plenty of criticism for glorifying gun violence and reinforcing negative stereotypes. Pitchfork initially stood by the video but has now changed its mind in light of the recent murders in Chicago, including that of Keef's rap rival 18-year-old Lil JoJo. Keef himself drew plenty of backlash for laughing off the death of Lil JoJo on Twitter. We'll see what comes of this situation. On the tube: "Hell's Kitchen" on Fox, "How I Met Your Mother" on CBS, "Bachelor Pad" on ABC and "The Voice" on NBC. Happy Monday!
