A man by the name of Shutterbug Robert Rosen is doing what he does best…Sue People!
A photographer has sued the R&B singer for assault and battery, claiming Brown’s entourage chased him after he took a picture of the star during a pickup basketball game March 13. Then one of Brown’s bodyguards “picked him up by his shorts and physically assaulted him.”
Shutterbug Robert Rosen, who two years ago accused Pierce Brosnan of sucker-punching him outside a restaurant, is also suing L.A. Fitness, the gym where Brown was shooting hoops, according to the complaint filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court.
“This is a specious and frivolous lawsuit by one of the paparazzi seeking publicity and a payday,” Brown attorney Mark Geragos tells E! News. “He’s done this before and lost. We will vigorously defend against this.”
According to the plaintiff, he had snapped a pic of the recently maligned artist when Brown’s “associates/and or bodyguards/and or others” spotted him, yelled something and started walking toward him.
Rosen started running toward the exit to avoid a confrontation, the suit states, but Brown’s people blocked the exit and grabbed him. When Rosen wrested free, he tripped going down a flight of stairs.
He sat down in a chair at the bottom of the stairs, Rosen said, after which one of the bodyguards (or miscellaneous guys) further roughed him up, leaving the paparazzo—who was yelling for L.A. Fitness employees to call the police and an ambulance—in “great fear for his life, health and safety.”
Rosen was “severely injured and disabled, both internally and externally,” the suit claims. He is asking for unspecified damages.
In addition to assault and battery, the allegations include intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligence, negligent hiring, premises liability and false imprisonment.

Keep in mind that Shutterbug Robert Rosen is in the Guinness Book of World Records for suing the most people. He also sued the Guinness Book of World Records for adding him to the book. Let’s sit back and see who wins.

This is how Obama does it:
What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas—unless you’re the President of the United States.
I just got the scoop on Pres. Obama’s overnight in Sin City.
Where did he stay? What did he eat? What celebs was he hanging with? Read on for all the details!
Obama checked into Caesars Palace at about 5 p.m. yesterday. He is said to have ordered a steak from the hotel’s Neros restaurant. Then it was off to a fundraiser for U.S. Sen. Harry Reid’s re-election campaign and the Nevada Democratic Party.
I’m told Obama met backstage with comedian Rita Rudner and Bette Midler, who had performed during the gala. The Divine Miss M presented the president with two ukuleles for the First Daughters, Sasha and Malia.
He spent the night in a 22,000-square-foot suite, which features four bedrooms, six bathrooms, at least two formal living , a dining room and butler’s quarters. Oh, and there’s a private pool out on the patio!
Obama hit the Qua Baths and Spa 8:30 a.m. this morning for a 45-minute run on a treadmill, according to a source.
“The spa was closed down just for him,” the source said.
How long does it take to secure a place like Caesars for the Commander-In-Chief? About a week. I’m told Secret Service first arrived last Tuesday.
After Vegas, it was off to Hollywood. The president headlines a fundraiser tonight for the Democratic Party at the Beverly Hilton hotel.

We love Obama!
