Arsenio sues Sinead O’Connor over Prince drug claims

Posted by | May 5, 2016 19:16 | Filed under: Media/Show Business News Behaving Badly


Arsenio Hall is suing Sinead O’Connor for a Facebook post where she says he supplied Prince with drugs.

In a complaint filed on Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court, Hall rips into O’Connor as a “desperate, attention-seeker … now known perhaps as much for her bizarre, unhinged internet rants as for her music.”

O’Connor’s biggest hit was “Nothing Compares 2 U,” a cover version of a Prince composition released in 1990. About a week after Prince died in Minneapolis, O’Connor wrote that Prince was a “long time hard drug user” who “got his drugs over the decades” from Hall.

The television personality says that’s absolutely false, and that O’Connor is hardly in any position to know anyhow, having acknowledged that she only met Prince “a couple of times.” Hall also states through the lawsuit that he hasn’t had any contact with O’Connor in 25 years and that her accusation of criminal conduct is “extraordinarily damaging” to his reputation.

    He might have a case…of course that is if he wasn’t scoring for Prince

      I can’t imagine why Arsenio Hall would deal drugs to anybody. And, of course, Prince could get his own drugs.

      The talk about prescription drugs seems more likely. It’s such a problem these days.

    Sinead is a great singer, I think, but she is definitely someone who should just stop talking.

    Libel, false innuendos and slander can soon lead to poverty… especially when, in a moment of idiotic ineptitude, you post the libel, slander and false innuendos on social media for the world to see.
