LaChapelle Funeral Home
The Death of Art
Rhihana has settled with photographer David LaChapelle after he sued the star, stating her" S&M” video were direct copies of his provocative pictures. LaChapelle alleged that the video copied his poses, lighting, wardrobe and props. He launched a lawsuit against Rihanna and her label, Def Jam, and asked for $1 million in damages.LaChapelle said This is not personal, it’s strictly business, But then again all Lachapelle knows is business!

Well Mr LaChapelle:

What would you call taking my painting”American Jesus ” while I was in

the hospital recovering from a fire that engulfed my home almost killing me and refusing to return it. Get all the lawyers you want but both you and Fred Torres, your business associate, removed the painting from my residence on the pretense you were going to repair than kept my picture (probably selling it.) It is theft and I have reported it to the LAPD. You claim I never paid for the picture. If so why is the only bill I have for this photo $4000 for repairs from the fire.. If I did not pay for this painting why is there no other bill?.. David you know very well why there is no bill being the businessman you are ---- there is no bill for this painting because like so many of your works you requested to paid for the picture in cash. That is not to say I have not delivered close to $30,000 worth of care to you ,and $10,000 to your friends as well as given you well over $20,000.00 worth of Michael Jackson memorabilia . Possibly you forgot how I cared for your friend after he split his head open from drug use and arranged care for him at a hospital.

Mr LaChapelle it is now very clear to me why you made those images of Michael Jackson. You are a businessman and you made them to make money. You did not care about Michael but rather the hysteria surrounding his death would sell more of your pictures so you made the Jackson pictures. You did the same with the Naomi Campbell and the blood diamond. If you think you know the value of the picture you stole from me think again. Because this picture hung in the place in my home where Michael Jackson requested his portrait be hung the provenance of this piece has it insured at $400,000.
