Prince
Former talks show host Arsenio Hall, has
filed a $5,000,000 defamation lawsuit against singer, Sinead
O'Connor. Shortly after the death of singer, Prince, on
April 21, 2016, O'Connor, who had remade the late musician's
song "Nothing Compares 2 U" and achieved worldwide fame from
it, accused Hall of
supplying Prince with illegal drugs. O'Connor blamed Hall
for Prince's death. O'Connor also referred to Hall as
"Prince and Eddie Murphy's b***h" regarding gay rumors that
have surrounded them since the 1980s.
Arsenio Hall
O'Connor reported Hall to police in Prince's
hometown of Minneapolis, Minnesota, as apart of their
investigation into his death. Hall labeled the claims
defamatory and hit O'Connor with a lawsuit over her conduct.
O'Connor has responded to Hall's lawsuit via items posted on
her Facebook page. O'Connor labels the lawsuit "laughable
threats" and told Hall, "He can suck my d**k. That is if he
isn't too busy sucking someone else's." She further stated,
"I'm more amused than I've ever dreamed a person could be
and look forward very much to how hilarious it will be
watching him trying to prove me wrong."
Sinead O'Connor
O'Connor's family has been very worried
about her of late. Prior to slamming Hall, she went missing
for days, then surfaced online making posts about them on
social networking they labeled untrue. In the past, O'Connor
stated Prince summoned her to his house in the 1990s and
asked her to stop using profanity in promotion of the remake
of his song "Nothing Compares 2 U." O'Connor revealed she
became angry and started punching Prince. O'Connor stated
she and Prince got into a fist fight, prompting her to flee
his house in Los Angeles late at night.

Arsenio Hall Sues Sinead O’Connor For $5M For Claiming He Was Prince’s Drug Dealer
Collin Robinson @slangsyllables | May 5,
2016 - 3:59 pm - Sinead O’Connor recently accused Arsenio
Hall of fueling his good friend Prince’s drug habit, which
led to the artist’s death. According to TMZ, Hall has
responded to the tune of a $5 million defamation lawsuit.
The funnyman’s lawyers, Marty Singer and Lynda Goldman,
filed a suit this morning in which the comedian calls
O’Connor a “desperate attention-seeker” for posting a rant
on Facebook earlier this week. She called Prince a “longtime
hard drug user” and referred to Hall as “Prince’s and Eddie
Murphy’s b***h.”
The former late-night host also denies ever
supplying Prince with illegal drugs in the lawsuit and adds
he hasn’t had contact with O’Connor for 25 years. He also
dismisses her claim of spiking her with drugs in the past.
Hall furthermore claims that he witnessed O’Connor tell
Prince she “detested him” and told the singer to “go f**k
himself.” This one may get ugly...

Sinead O'Connor Responds to Arsenio Hall's $5 Million Defamation Lawsuit: It's 'Laughable'

performs in Italy on Oct. 5, 2014 and Arsenio Hall attends
an event in Burbank, Calif. on May 2, 2016. WATCH Arsenio
Hall Suing Sinead O'Connor for $5 Million. Sinead O'Connor
has responded to Arsenio Hall's $5 million defamation
lawsuit, which the comedian filed last Thursday in Los
Angeles, after the Irish singer suggested in a Facebook post
that he supplied Prince with drugs.
In a post written Friday on her official
Facebook page, O'Connor said she was responding to Hall's
"laughable threats." She wrote, "I'm more amused than I've
ever dreamed a person could be and look forward very much to
how hilarious it will be watching him trying to prove me
wrong." O'Connor reiterated her previous claims, and added,
"I do not like Arsenio Hall." Then, in a subsequent post,
O'Connor posted a YouTube video of her song "Nothing
Compares 2 U," and captioned it "THIS IS FOR PRINCE. RIP."
As ABC News previously reported, on May 2
O'Connor wrote on her Facebook page, "Two words for the DEA
investigating where prince got his drugs over the
decades.... Arsenio Hall (AKA Prince's and Eddie Murphy's
b****). Anyone imagining prince was not a long time hard
drug user is living in cloud cuckoo land. Arsenio I've
reported you to the Carver County Sherrif's office. Expect
their call. They are aware you spiked me years ago at Eddie
murphy's house. You best get tidying your man cave."...

Sinead O'Connor has revealed she came to blows with Prince over 'Nothing Compares 2U', the song he penned which propelled Sinead to superstardom
Speaking in an interview with Norwegian
station NRK yesterday, she said, "I did meet him a couple of
times. We didn't get on at all. In fact we had a punch-up.
"He summoned me to his house after 'Nothing Compares'. I
made it without him. I'd never met him. He summoned me to
his house - and it's foolish to do this to an Irish woman -
he said he didn't like me saying bad words in interviews. So
I told him to f*** off."
Sinead revealed the row became physical. "He
got quite violent. I had to escape out of his house at 5 in
the morning. He packed a bigger punch than mine. In other
news, Sinead last week posted a review of OhMiBod's latest
sex toy, saying, "The OhMiBod? Oh my God! This is what every
adult woman wants for Christmas, trust me. Even your Ma! So
tell your Da! No man will ever be nagged again who buys this
for his woman."...
