Sharon Osbourne has been sued by a company that claims she reneged on a promise to hock jewelry bearing her name on the Home Shopping Network.
Lucas Design International claims Sharon approached them last year to design and manufacture a Sharon Osbourne jewelry line that she would personally sell on HSN. Lucas claims they hit the drawing board and came up with some awesome baubles, and projected they would sell a cool million bucks worth of merchandise in 2012 -- with a 50% profit margin no less.
But it wasn't to be, because according to the suit Sharon backed out of the oral agreement at the 11th hour.
Lucas is suing for unspecified damages.
A rep for Sharon tells TMZ, "Sharon Osbourne did not breach any oral contract with Lucas Design because no agreement existed." They add, "Sharon is looking to create her own jewelry line and did have discussions with Lucas Design. Unfortunately the designs and pieces submitted were not the quality that was represented or hoped for. Sharon has moved on."
Kim Kardashian is in desperate need of an upgrade -- hitting the streets in Miami yesterday to find an even bigger home for her beachfront clothing boutique ... to accommodate its exploding popularity.
Sources tell TMZ, the Miami D-A-S-H store (below) has become so successful, it can no longer cater to the massive flux of customers coming and going on a daily basis ... so Kim wants something a little roomier, scoping out possible new locations herself.
Kim's not messing around either -- we're told she's in the market for retail space that's around DOUBLE the size of the current D-A-S-H store ... not bad.
So far, no word on anything that isn't making Kim tons of money.
Michael Vick says his publicist's identity has been stolen -- claiming some stranger has been calling around New York for Fashion Week invites on the quarterback's behalf ... without his permission.
There are reports Vick put his rep on a powerdialing mission for NY Fashion Week invites next month -- but the NFL star's actual rep Chris Shigas tells TMZ ... he's being framed.
According to Shigas, neither he nor Vick has put in requests for invites to the giant citywide fashion events -- often attended by pro athletes like Amar'e Stoudemire.
Shigas adds, Vick doesn't even WANT to go to Fashion Week -- and if he finds out who's been making the phony phone calls ... they're in for trouble.
As for rumors Vick is tying the knot this summer -- Shigas tells us, that's all still up in the air.
Former "Bachelor" winner Shayne Lamas believes in starting 'em off young -- because TMZ has learned she's close to signing her 11-week-old daughter to an endorsement deal.

We're told little Press is even in line for her own signature series "couture pop" ... like Britney Spears has.
Your move, Blue Ivy.
Former "Real Housewives of New York" star Cindy Barshop has heard the cries of the anti-fur community and had a change of heart -- she's going to make her new line of luxury merkins fur-free!
As TMZ first reported, the "RHONY" is selling the pubic wigs at her NYC waxing salon, Completely Bare. One of the merkins used real fox fur -- which, according to our sources, drew lots of hate mail and threats in Cindy's direction.
So, we're told, plans to use the real fox fur have been scrapped and instead she'll go with faux fur.
