Rapper Tyga is facing a demand
for $20 million (£13.4 million)
from two models over topless
shots which appeared in his video
for the song Make It Nasty.
The hip-hop star, who is signed to
Lil Wayne's Young Money
Entertainment, was initially
slapped with a lawsuit from Alissa
Rae Ross, Azia Davies and
Elizabeth Velasquez last December
(12) after they filmed semi-naked
scenes for his promo.
They claim video producers
insisted the film would be
"tastefully shot" and that their
nipples would be "covered" or
"edited out" of the final cut - but
when an unedited version of Make
It Nasty was released online, they
sued for breach of contract,
invasion of privacy and fraud.
Now two of the plaintiffs, Davies
and Velasquez, have stepped up
their legal battle by demanding
$10 million (£6.7 million) each in
punitive damages over the
unwanted exposure.
