CELEBRITY JUSTCE (via TMZ): Serious Pimp claims The Situation defrauded the company out of tens of thousands of bucks.
TMZ has learned … Serious Pimp is slapping The Sitch with a lawsuit today, claiming the “Jersey Shore” star made a deal with the company — he would get a $25,000 advance in return for promoting a line of t-shirts on the show, Facebook, Twitter and various other places.
According to the lawsuit, The Sitch and his brother had the right to approve the t-shirt designs, but they never said yea or nay. They simply disappeared — allegedly — and never returned the dough.
Serious Pimp planned on co-partnering with The Situation, hoping to make a bundle on the shirts, so they claim the greasy defendant should not only return the advance, the company wants lost profits as well.
BTW … Snoop Dogg endorses some of Serious Pimps’ products.
A rep for Situation’s company MPS Entertainment tells TMZ, all terms of the contract with Serious Pimp were completed and there is nothing further to discuss.
Snoop Dogg and Wiz Khalifa stopped by Terminal 5 in NYC to perform songs from their new soundtrack Mac and Devin Go To High School, including their hit single “Young, Wild and Free.” Check out the photos below of the two stars during their performance.
