Rapper and father of 2, Kanye West is suing various syndicates of insurer Lloyd's of London, for not paying him claims emanating from a canceled tour, when he reportedly sufered a mental breakdown. A loss claim was tendered just two days after West checked himself into a psychiatric center, but he and his company - Very Good Touring, Inc. - still have not been paid, over eight months later, according to the suit.
"Nor have they provided anything approaching a coherent explanation about why they have not paid, or any indication if they will ever pay or even make a coverage decision, implying that Kanye's use of marijuana may provide them with a basis to deny the claim and retain the hundreds of thousands of dollars in insurance premiums paid by Very Good," states a complaint filed on Tuesday in California federal court.
