Pop supperstar Lady Gaga has been sued over the sale of wristbands, of which the proceeds were sopposed to go to victims of the March 11th earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The suit alleges that Gaga and her partners in the $5 "We Pray for Japan" wristbands overcharged buyers on shipping and handling, and that not all the proceeds went to victims, as advertised.
The lawsuit was filed in Michigan on Monday, and is asking a judge to grant class action status. Gaga's representatives have declined to comment. Ironically, the singer is currently in Japan taking part in a benfit concert for the earthquake victims. Gaga is reported to have donated $3 million to the Japanese disaster victimes through the sale of the wristbands and other ventures.
