Fan sues Kendrick Lamar for $1 million for causing her 'deep sadness'

by Dan MacRae

Kendrick Lamar is a popular recording artist everyone would like to meet. He’s talented, charming, and at the top of roughly 50,000 Best Of 2015 lists at the moment. One fan was so excited about the prospect of meeting the Grammy nom magnet that she ponied up some serious dough to make it happen and now she’s suing the To Pimp A Butterfly tune vendor for one million dollars because their encounter never happened.

The Kardashian tracking system known as TMZ is reporting that fan Whitney Larkins has launched the seven figure suit because she feels his manager ripped her off. Larkins says Kendrick’s manager Dave Free agreed to arrange three minutes of “one-on-one” time with the rapper for a cash payment of $10,000. (This would be in addition to the $350 VIP meet and greet package Larkins bought for the event.) It was all going hunky dory until she got an email from Lamar’s camp saying she was banned from the concert and would get a refund on her $350 VIP ticket.

Larkins is adamant that she’s still in a good place with her Kendrick Lamar fandom, but she’s pissed with his manager for the banning and backstep from the $10K meeting. The jilted fan says she’s experienced “deep sadness” and even blasts Free as an “arrogant, snotty, and an all-around bad dude from the rooter to the tooter!”
