Brandy's Lawsuit

Looks like Brandy is getting sued for a lotta money after her car crash:

Singer-actress Brandy was sued for $50 million on Tuesday by the family of a woman killed in a four-car freeway crash which police have blamed on the 27-year-old performer.

The wrongful death lawsuit by the parents of Awatef Aboudihaj, 38, was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court a day after police recommended that prosecutors charge Brandy with a misdemeanor count of vehicular manslaughter.

The California Highway Patrol found that the entertainer, whose full name is Brandy Norwood, was at fault in the December 30 accident for failing to prevent her Land Rover from hitting the car in front of her when traffic suddenly slowed, CHP spokesman Leland Tang said this week.

Yeah, OK, we know she's rich, that's why the sum of money is so high. But it isn0t her that would have to pay if they won. It would be the company that had insured her car. Can't believe that this suit will get very far. Why should an accident caused by someone rich cost the insurance company more than one caused by someone poor?
