Former NWA Manager Jerry Heller Sues Dr. Dre And Ice Cube For Millions Over Straight Outta Compton
Jerry Heller, 75, vehemently disagrees with his portrayal in “Straight Outta Compton” and has filed a $110 million, lawsuit against Ice Cube, Dr. Dre & anybody else he could sue.
Friday, he formally filed a defamation lawsuit against Dr. Dre and Ice Cube for categorizing him as the “sleazy manager who took advantage of Eazy-E, Dr. Dre and Ice Cube.”
TMZ reports that NBC Universal and the Estate of Eazy-E were also included in the lawsuit.
