CHAMELEONE SUES GRACE

What everyone thought was a joke is turning out really ugly. Showbizxklusivs has learnt that Pearl's lead singer Jose Chameleone has sued Kawonawo star Grace Nakimera over unauthorized use of his pictures during her album launch. Grace Nakimera who launched her debut album mid last May this year had advertised Jose Chameleone as amongst the opening acts. Chameleone had ordered his lawyers to take further action towards Grace after she put his picture on her album launch posters without his consent.

But just last week news came out revealing that Chameleone's lawyers had filed a case at Mengo Magistrates Court asking for compensation and damages worth Kshs 4M. Our Kampala source told us, "If you thought it was a joke then the Bayuda singer is not one to joke around.

REDSAN STILL HIRING WHEELS

Whereas his Ugandan peers like Chameleon ,Ragga Dee, Peter Miles and even Ghetto monster Bobi Wine are rolling in fuel guzzlers,Redsan is still hiring whips.
