NEW YORK (AuditionPortal News) — Makeup Artist Roxanna Floyd and Fashion Stylist Susan Moses claim in 2 separate, yet coordinated lawsuits, that Queen Latifah, acting and singing star of radio and film, owes them close to one million dollars for work performed during 2005 through to February of 2008.Floyd, a Celebrity Cosmetologist, says she lost $700,000 when the actress failed to pay her for work, while celebrity Fashion Stylist Susan Moses said she was cheated of $300,000 during the same time.
The lawsuits were filed yesterday in federal court in Manhattan and Ms. Latifah's spokeswoman, Amanda Silverman, says she can't comment on pending litigation, but later eluded to the notion that the lawsuits held no water.
Audition Portal's Paul Brighton commented "I'm sure it will be worked out amicably. Hollywood can be a tough battleground for lawsuits because there are so many players involved from agents to managers to personal assistants. It's highly probable that it was just a misunderstanding or lack of communication."
Queen Latifah, originally from Newark, New Jersey, has appeared in numerous films and received an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress in a Supporting Role for her role, in the made-for-screen musical Chicago.
