Prince Sued Over Book Deal Gone Bad

No one ever called Prince an angel -- especially when it comes to his money. According to TMZ.com, a literary agency filed a lawsuit against The Purple One in Los Angeles Superior Court because of the skulduggery he displayed in their business dealings.

According to court papers, Prince chose the agency to be his "exclusive agent with respect to the negotiations of a publishing deal" for a book called 21 Nights and a special limited edition version. However, in the final stages of the deal, Prince stopped calling them back and went behind their back to finish the negotiations.

The agency is taking Prince to court to get the 15 percent he screwed them out of -- which roughly amounts to about 200-thousand dollars.
