Tulisa is suing Will.i.am for publishing royalties after claiming she wrote part of his track 'Scream & Shout'.

http://www.standard.co.uk/showbiz/article6501432.ece/ALTERNATES/w460/Tulisa

According to The Sun, Tulisa wrote the song with Will.i.am's friend and producer, Jean Baptiste, before the former Black Eyed Peas man recorded his own version of the track with Britney Spears.

A source told the newspaper: "Tulisa is still fuming with Will for taking the song off her. The fact the song blew up only makes it worse. She’s well within her right to claim some of the publishing money. If she proves the words are hers, she could get a huge pay-out."

Tulisa, whose debut album 'The Female Boss' was a major flop, claims she wrote the lyric: "When you hear this in the club, you’d better turn this **** up." The track was originally called 'I Don't Give A ****', and was due to appear on her album.

If successful with her suit, the 'Young' singer will have to be listed as a co-writer on the track and will most likely receive a hefty royalty pay-out, as the song has been a global smash hit for Will.i.am and Britney Spears.



so she wrote 1 line..

Suppose she has to make a name for herself somehow.

Releasing the video of 'How Not to Give a Blowjob' didn't take off so well.

i suppose in a way all men should thank her, because now all women that give bad blow jobs were shamed after that video came out.

She showed all girls that lookijng up with puppy dog eyes, and just licking it, is NOT good enuf. Yu do need to SUCK IT.

Licking is not good enough

Making sexy faces is not good enough

PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH! mmkay? srsly.
