Smokey Robinson has recently been accused of alleged rape and sexual assault in a new lawsuit filed by four former housekeepers, who are seeking damages of $50 million.

The allegations span from 2007 to 2024, and each of the women describe being “attacked in a blue bedroom inside his home.”

Mr. Robinson’s wife, Frances Robinson, is also a defendant in the lawsuit. The allegations suggest that Mrs. Robinson, over the years, has been aware of Mr. Robinson’s alleged sexual improprieties and that she turned a blind eye to them.

Lively v. Baldoni Lawsuit – Can You Subpoena Phone & Text Records in a Civil Employment Law Case?

Blake Lively/Ryan Reynolds filed subpoenas for years of Justin Baldoni’s phone records.

While Baldoni’s attorney, Bryan Freedman, acknowledges that it is very common in a civil case for subpoenas to be issued for elements like cell phone & text message records, he argues that this particular subpoena is “fragrantly overbroad” because it asks for cell phone/text message records for several years without any limitation on to/from the calls/text messages were sent.

Will Kendrick Lamar Perform His Hit Song “Not Like Us” at Super Bowl 2025?

That was a key question when Angela Reddock-Wright appeared on Dr. Phil’s Merit TV (on January 16th, 2025) to discuss the recent lawsuit filed by rapper Drake against his record label Universal Music Group (Lamar’s same label), alleging the label defamed him by releasing and publishing Lamar’s hit song “Not Like Us” knowing the “diss track” intentionally stated things about Drake that were not true and led to “dangerous real-life consequences” for Drake, including painting him in a negative light, such as a “pedophile.”

Many believe that part of Drake’s motivation in filing the lawsuit was to push Universal Music Group to keep Lamar from performing the song during his half-time show at the 2025 Super Bowl 59 at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.

On a legal note, Angela discussed whether Drake’s lawsuit gives rise to a true claim for defamation.
