Lady Gaga sued for breaching her Bratz contract, engaging in bad corporate romance

The maker of those big-eyed Bratz dolls is suing Lady Gaga for more than $10 million, claiming she delayed the approval of a doll line made in her already doll-like image. MGA Entertainment claims that Gaga, along with her management firm and Universal Music Group’s merchandising arm, Bravado, agreed to make the dolls back in 2011 with the aim of having them in stores this summer. MGA reportedly paid Bravado a $1 million fee, agreed to “an excessively generous royalty rate,” and “invested millions in the preproduction” of the dolls—including, presumably, extensive engineering of tiny rubber corsets and Alexander McQueen shoes.
