Oprah Winfrey is known for her magnanimity and generosity of spirit. Over the years we've seen her give makeovers, cars, TV shows…

But according to one former employee of OWN, one thing the company didn't give was time.

Carolyn Hommel is suing the TV network, saying they "temporarily" replaced her as the senior director of scheduling and acquisitions when she took maternity leave.

But then when she came back she found herself "laid off" and the temp in the position she wanted!

And what's worse, Carolyn says there were suddenly

If that’s protocol to sue, then everyone prepare to be sued!

While it might seem a little cray-cray to sue over random comments on the Internet, one Real Housewife of Miami star is doing just that.

Lisa Hochstein is suing Jessica Lederman for her nasty, untruthful comments on an article about Lisa joining the Housewives cast. Jessica had written:

We previously mentioned that Subway is coming under fire for its footlong subs not always measuring 12 inches.

There are even two men in New Jersey who are suing Subway!

We were wondering what would happen if the flood gates opened and the lawsuits started pouring in… and now it looks like it may be happening after all.

Sweet baby Gleezus! Say it aint so!

Could Mark Salling really be a real-life punk??

Glee's veteran bad boy has been slapped with a vicious lawsuit claiming he forced a girl to have sex with him WITHOUT a condom!

In the lawsuit filed by Roxanne Gorzela's attorney, the victim claims the two began dating back in September of 2010.

The pretty lady from Michael Jackson’s Thriller music video finally settled her lawsuit with the late pop icon’s estate for a cool $55,000.

The suit was filed waayyyyy back in May of 2009 by actress and Playboy playmate Ola Ray, just months before Michael's ill-fated death.

Ola claimed to still be owed a small fortune in royalties from the 1983 spooky video as promised in her contract.

Even post-mortem, everyone still wants a piece of the King of Pop!!

Legal probz for the Jonas Brothers!

Those boys need to lawyer up because they are being sued by a woman who claims she was crushed by a crowd at one of their concerts.

Boy bands are getting dangerous!

Jonas Brothers Enterprises and Caruso Management Co. are being sued by Ashleigh Johnson over a free concert that took place at the Grove in El Lay three years ago.

She claims both parties knew a large amount of people would attend, but proper security measures were not taken to protect everyone.

For the future, better safe than sorry!

Really?!

Another celebrity with outstanding debt?

Are the bills getting lost in the mail?

We sure hope so because now it’s Terrence Howard who’s racking up some debt.

Mister Howard had a lawsuit filed against him last month by American Express because he hasn’t caught up on his bill totaling $33,474.79 despite their demands.

Oops! Maybe the amount was so insignificant to him it slipped past?

Or maybe he's been putting his money elsewhere?

Either way, he better catch up on it quickly because American Express now wants the payment plus 10 percent interest since accrued on Terrence’s account and legal fees.

And that's not a fun way to spend your money.

Time to Get Rich or Die Tryin'…LOLz!
