Will Lindsay Lohan EVER catch a break?! You know, other than the dozen or so times she's avoided jail.

After filing a lawsuit against D.N.A.M. Apparel Industries, the clothing manufacturer behind LiLo's 6126 leggings line, the actress has been countersued for $5 million!

OUCH!

In response to her $1.1 million breach of contract, fraud and trademark infringement suit, D.N.A.M. claims Lindsay's "drug-addled image", constant legal problems and frequent visits to rehab damaged

Rip off!

Khloe Kardashian is about to get slapped with a lawsuit by New York Governor Andrew Cuomo if she doesn't stop selling the Rich Soil t-shirt (above)!

The state of New York has ordered Khloe and her husband Lamar Odom to halt sales of the $35 t-shirt because the picture looks an awful lot like the state's Department of Agriculture logo.

In fact, it's practically identical.

If the two don't remove the shirt from their joint label's website within five days, the state will resort to dragging them to court with an argument saying:

Don't invoke the wrath of Rihanna!

Topshop has been selling a tank top with a picture of RiRi from her We Found Love music video (below) without her permission, and despite asking them repeatedly to halt sales of the item, the British retailer's refused.

The new name of the line will be…drum roll please…

Selena Gomez isn't taking this one lying down!

After being sprayed with a lawsuit by Adrenalina, Inc. over a botched fragrance deal, the Come and Get It singer is saying "na na na na" and fighting back with her OWN lawsuit!

In her newly filed countersuit, Selena's lawyers say

Lil' Kim sued for being a diva?

Get outta town!

The rapper has been slapped with a lawsuit by her former business manager, Andrew Ro, who claims his company, International Rock Star Corp, lost around $15 million after she backed out on a plethora of endorsement deals that included a clothing line, a shoe collection with Steve Madden, a fragrance, and a honey maker.

Yes, you read that right.

Not only does Ro allege that

So much for any peace of mind she had following her reconciliation with Justin Bieber!

Selena Gomez has been slapped with a lawsuit by Adrenalina, Inc., on the grounds that the Come & Get It singer failed to follow through in a business deal with the company…and they lost more than $2 million because of it!
