Ice Spice Don't Wig Out … You're Gonna Be Deposed!!!
Ice Spice totally wigged out when she refused to ante up $20,000 for more than two dozen custom wigs she ordered from a company -- at least according to a lawsuit from the wig company -- and now the rapper is now facing a deposition in the case.
According to new court docs, obtained by TMZ, Spice is set to be deposed as a defendant in a lawsuit brought by Thee Bella Brand, which is owned by Gabrielle Alexis.
The legal drama started in 2025 when Spice was first slapped with the suit for allegedly reneging on a discounted $20,000 deal for the 25 custom-made wigs.
The docs say Spice signed a contract for Alexis to create the one-of-a-kind wigs, but Thee Bella Brand claims Spice didn't make good on her promise to pay or take delivery of the wigs ... and then went on to tarnish the reputation of Alexis and her wigs on social media when things went awry between them.

Paris Jackson to MJ's Estate Executors You're Using My Dad's Fortune to Bully & Attack Me!!!
Paris Jackson slammed the two executors in charge of her late father Michael Jackson’s estate ... claiming they are bullying her for asking questions about money spent, TMZ has learned.
Paris' claims come after the executors said Paris was “more interested in playing to the media than” working out any issues. According to court docs, obtained by TMZ, Paris and her legal team say the executors, John Branca and John McClain, are filing court documents that “mock and belittle” Michael’s only daughter.

As TMZ previously reported, Paris and the executors have been going back and forth about payments made to third-party law firms who worked for the estate ... with Paris questioning the process for handing out huge bonuses and fees.
Branca and McClain have been arguing that their work turned the estate from insolvent to worth billions. They also argue Paris has benefited greatly from their hard work.
