Chris Brown and Drake are being sued over a bottle-throwing nightclub brawl involving their entourages.
A company with connections to the nightclub is trying to hold the music stars responsible for the melee.
Representatives for the music stars have kept their mouths closed about the €13million lawsuit which literally blames the artists for at best doing nothing to stop the June 14th incident. It claims it sullied the chic Manhattan nightspot’s name.
The lawsuit, filed by Entertainment Enterprises, should bear blame for a glass-flinging, bottle-swinging free-for-all in a crowded club “in circumvention of the venue’s extensive security measures”.
The owners of the club itself is not involved in the lawsuit and refused to comment.
No criminal charges have been filed in the fight, which left Brown, basketball star Tony Parker and others injured.
Police said the dispute began after members of Drake’s entourage confronted Brown on the dance floor as he was leaving the club’s basement lounge.
The lawsuit even points to news accounts of bad blood between Brown and Drake, both of whom have dated singer Rihanna.
Entertainment Enterprises believes the two men instigated, encouraged, or at least failed to stop the fight, lawyer Andrew Miltenberg said.
"It's their posse, and they're in charge, and to the extent that they could have controlled or dissipated whatever was going on, we don't believe they did," he said.
The city shut the club for a time after the brawl and it reopened on July 10.
The nightclub is continuing to fight a State Liquor Authority effort to revoke its drinks licence.
