Someone is sour graping as a chick who left the country band Sugarland three years ago wants her cut of the profits now that the band’s latest album is sitting in a comfy spot on the Billboard charts. Kristen Hall is asking for $1.5 million from her former band mates Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush. She claims in a suit that they haven’t paid out her share of the agreement to share the loot. Sugarland also has a multi-platinum album but Kristen hasn’t done so well on her own. She’s just jealous that Sugarland has made it huge and that their latest album ‘Love on the Inside’ is number one on the Billboard charts.

Rihanna and Welsh soul singer Duffy were spotted as they were shopping for shoes at Barneys in New York City last week. I wonder how these two got to be friends. Maybe it’s the fact that in less than one month, the pair will help Fashion Rocks celebrates its fifth anniversary. I wonder if they are up for doing a duet. It’s going to be an interesting sound. The two singers will join other fellow performers at the September 5 celebration concert at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Other performers include the likes of Chris Brown, Beyonce, Justin Timberlake, Mariah Carey and rapper Lil Wayne.
