We're Movin' on Down...
(Geddit?)
From Yahoo!/Reuters:
Four-time Grammy Award winner Lenny Kravitz is being sued for more than $300,000 (164,000 pounds) by an insurance company that claims the rocker let his toilet overflow into a neighbour's apartment, causing "catastrophic water damage."
The suit, filed in a New York City court and made public on Friday, claims a commode in Kravitz's lavish Manhattan condominium "became blocked, clogged and congested with various materials" on August 1 and that the musician's "negligence and carelessness" were solely to blame.
The Amica Mutual Insurance Company is suing Kravitz to recover $333,850 it says it paid out to the recording artist's neighbour, a former insurance executive, for damage to his home....
The Smoking Gun has a copy of the lawsuit.
For the European traveler, there is a shower/toilet on the floor which includes the Lenny Kravitz room (102) at the Swiss Rockhotel. You will share the toilet with the occupants of the U2 and Eurythmics rooms; the Supertramp guests will have their own toilet.
I couldn't find a picture of any of those rooms, but here's a picture of the Pink Floyd room (room 205, a junior suite with shower, toilet on the same floor):
When Lenny thinks of his late mother, he thinks of toilets (emphasis mine):
Then in 1974 Lenny's mother landed the role of a lifetime, playing Helen Willis on The Jeffersons. The whole family relocated to Los Angeles. Almost immediately the show, which lasted 11 seasons, was a hit, and Roxie was a star. Even so, she refused to get a maid or a fancy car. "She cooked the food; she cleaned the damn toilets," says Lenny. "And I was like, `Ma, you're on the number-one TV show in America.' And she looks at me like, `This is my house, right? It's my toilet, right? Get down here; you need to be cleaning, too.' They had me doing chores; I'd be up ironing like, I don't understand this s--."
