7 Weird Ways To Bug-Proof Your Picnic
Two women from Texas are upset that rapper Jim Jones (above, far left) allegedly taped them topless without their permission for his snippet video 'Summer Time.'
Houston residents Sharie Johnson and Samantha Stotts filed a lawsuit on Monday at the Manhattan Supreme Court in New York City. According to the young women's lawyer, Taso Pardalis, Johnson and Stotts were cavorting in the ocean at a private beach in Miami last May. The women knew they were being filmed, but according to their attorney, did not know the footage would be used for a video. Johnson and Stotts are claiming that they never granted permission to anyone to use their images for promotional purposes.
The video depicts Jones rapping, clutching a Champagne flute and playing with a stack of $100 bills. In a subsequent shot, the two young women are then seen topless (pictured above).
Johnson is a college student who also works in a doctor's office, and Stotts has a real estate background. Ironically, both women are now pregnant.
The 'Pop Champagne' hit maker, who starred in 'Hip-Hop Monologues: Inside the Life and Mind of Jim Jones' an off-Broadway play that chronicled his life on the road and on the streets back in 2009, still plans to shoot a full-length video for the controversial song in question.
The women are seeking unspecified damages.

when are black men, especially rappers going to stop acting as though there are no pretty or beautiful black women to gwak at or run behind for their videos!! I think black men need to stop seeing us as competitors and start seeing as as an extension of themselves. If you cannot appreciate the black women's beauty and run behind white females or the (white man's woman" that just shows how self-hating, and lack of self-pride you have....The black man does this to embarass the black woman but all people are now saying is "look how they don't want their own woman"
