Stylist Misa Hylton has filed a lawsuit against Mary J. Blige — a previous client and friend — for allegedly refusing to drop rapper Vado ‘s completed album until he cuts ties with the fashion professional. Documents claim that Blige attempted to persuade Vado to break his management agreement with Hylton during “private yacht gatherings, hotel meetings and exclusive events,” where Misa nor her M.I.S.A.
