TALENT AGENT FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST 'MISOGYNISTIC' MIMS

U.S. rapper MIMS has been accused of cancelling a gig because of his 'discriminatory' attitude towards women - and is being sued as a result.

Mims arrives at MTV Times Square Studios. New York City, USA - 27.03.07

Talent agent Marquitta Blair has filed a $7.5 million (GBP3.75 million) lawsuit against the star - real name Shawn Mims - for failing to appear at the Eugene nightclub in Manhattan, New York, despite allegedly receiving a $2500 (GBP1250) deposit prior to his scheduled 10-minute performance on 5 April (07).

And Blair believes his failure to honour the $10,000 (GBP5,000) commitment is because of his derogatory feelings towards women, reports PageSix.com.

According to papers filed by the 22-year-old in Rockland County Court, Mims' misogynistic views are "a pattern of conduct involving the belittlement and degrading of females as b**ches and ho's."
