R & B vocalist Ne-Yo, whose real name is Shaffer Smith, and his booking agent have been named in a lawsuit filed in the state of Maryland. The suit alleges the singer missed a 2008 New Year's Eve concert in Washington state and refused to repay the $95,000 advance. Kenyohn Clark, the promoter who filed the lawsuit, is seeking $1 million in damages. The lawsuit is scheduled for trial later this month in Anne Arundel County, where Mike Esterman, Ne-Yo's booking agent, is based.
