In October, Clarkson filed a labor petition (via People) claiming that Starstruck violated California’s Labor Code for “procuring, offering, promising, or attempting to procure employment or engagements” without filing for a talent agency license first.
The original lawsuit filed by Starstruck Management Group alleged that Kelly Clarkson owed at least $5,430,122.54 in estimated commissions for her work.
The lawsuit also claims that Clarkson breached her verbal contract, which stipulated that she pay 15% of all commissions earned to the company.
