Chris Brown and Drake may be shelling $16 million for their W.I.P nightclub bottle throwing brawl this past June. The owner of Greenhouse/W.I.P is suing the artists, claiming they ordered their entourage to throw bottles of champagne, resulting in the June 14th club brawl.
The SoHo club has already incurred over $4 million dollars in losses, possibly more, also garnering a bad reputation following the event. In the aftermath, it was also ordered to close temporarily and was allowed to re-open only after paying a fine and agreeing to hire more security.
NBA player Tony Parker, who attended the club that night, also sued the club for $20 million dollars. Parker suffered an injury to his eye as a result of the uncontrollable brawl. In his lawsuit Parker noted, “I could have lost an eye.”
His case is still pending.
The lawsuit claims both Brown and Drake arrived at Greenhouse’s sister club, W.i.P., with an entourage of “at least 15 heavily built men trained and/or experienced in hand-to-hand and weapons combat.”
