It appears that Tony Braxton, in spite of how much money she has, is very cheap. She likes to get things for free or for less money, like a lot of celebrities that we know. E!Online reports:
The "Unbreak My Heart" chanteuse was sued for breach of contract Friday by a costume designer who claims Braxton bounced a check and has yet to pay their agreed-upon fee for his work on her Las Vegas show, Toni Braxton: Revealed.
Plaintiff Anthony Franco, who says he designed the entire wardrobe for Braxton's standing act at the Flamingo Hotel, claims he has only collected $20,000 of the $35,000 that’s owed to him and that the check he tried to cash was returned for insufficient funds because the defendants put a stop-payment on it.
Liberty Entertainment Inc., which issued the check, has also been named as a defendant.
Franco is seeking $15,000 in compensation, plus unspecified damages for the alleged slight, according to the complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.[E!Online]
