A multi-million dollar defamation lawsuit filed against US musician Phoebe Bridgers has been dropped.
The case was originally filed by producer Chris Nelson back in September 2021. Nelson sued the “Kyoto” singer for 3.8m (£3.2m), claiming she spread false accusations about him.
At the time he alleged defamation, false light, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and intentional interference with prospective economic relations.
In the original suit, it stated that that Bridgers had “consensual sexual encounters” with Nelson and his then girlfriend, Emily Bannon “around 2018”, which continued until Bannon and Nelson broke up in 2019.
Following his split with Bannon, Nelson claims that Bridgers “maliciously and intentionally posted the false and defamatory statements about [him] as part of a vendetta to destroy [his] reputation that was inflamed by defendant Bridgers and his [ex-girlfriend, Bannon’s] sexual relationship”.
The defamation relates to an Instagram post from October 2020, where Nelson claims Bridgers made “false and misleading statements” on her account,...

Boy George’s friend, DJ Fat Tony, has said the musician’s reaction to Matt Hancock entering the jungle was genuine.
On Wednesday night (9 November), Hancock joined the jungle with comedian Seann Walsh, to the shock of their fellow contestants.
On screen, Boy George was upset by the revelation:“You know, beginning of the pandemic my mum was in hospital. I wasn’t allowed to see her. I thought she was going to die,” he told presenter Scarlette Douglas.
“I was tweeting Greenwich hospital going, ‘Please look after my mum.’ I used my name, I was like, ‘Please look after my mum.’ And they did, she was fine… I feel like, I don’t want to be sitting here like I’m having fun with him.”
“It’s difficult for me because, you know, had something happened, if my mum had gone, I wouldn’t be here now. I would...

Kid Cudi has claimed that “toxic fans” are one of the reasons he doesn’t want to make music for much longer.
The US artist’s statement was made on Wednesday (9 November), when Cudi removed his music from Soundcloud after a fan had said they preferred the original version.
It started when the fan tweeted saying “I fkn love u @KiDCuDi thank you so making this masterpiece”, accompanied by a screenshot of his song “love” on Soundcloud.
Cudi then replied to the fan asking if they knew he had released the song officially on his compilation album The Boy Who Flew to the Moon, Vol. 1.
The fan then replied saying that they preferred the Soundcloud edition: “Og version on SoundCloud hits different.”
This reaction prompted Cudi to say he was going to remove it from Soundcloud, before going through with his promise.

The Cure’s keyboardist Roger O’Donnell has responded to Paul Weller’s diatribe against his bandmate Robert Smith.
Earlier this week, Paul Weller hit out at The Cure frontman in an interview, calling him a “fat c***” and suggested he would like to “slap him”.
Weller’s comments were made when an interviewer for the cover story ofRecord Collector suggested that a song from Noel Gallagher’s forthcoming album sounds like “A Forest” by The Cure.
Weller didn’t seem to be too happy with this assertion, with the writer describing him as going into a state of “revulsion”.
"Really??!“ Weller said."I can’t f***ing stand them.”
“F***ing fat c***, with his lipstick and all that b*llocks. He is my age as well, isn’t he?" Weller said.
"He’s a f***ing kn*b end," he continued. "I don’t like him. There you go.

Frontman Robert Smith played a customised guitar with a design celebrating the festival, while the band were joined by Roger O'Donnell on keyboards.
