Rock Lawsuit Dismissed
By WENNFriday, October 9, 2009
A U.S. judge has dismissed a $5 million (£3.5 million) plagiarism lawsuit against funnyman CHRIS ROCK.
The Everybody Hates Chris star was at the centre of a suit from Regina Kimbell, who alleged he stole her ideas for his upcoming documentary Good Hair.
Kimbell claimed she showed Rock her show, My Nappy Roots - which features celebrities discussing different African-American hairdos - back in 2007, and he subsequently ripped off her idea,
Rock hit back at the allegations, insisting the only similarity between the projects was the topic.
And a judge agreed with him, dismissing the suit on Thursday (08Oct09), according to TMZ.com.
The show will air in America on Friday (09Oct09).
