Beyonce is in trouble. Not days after rumours surfaced that she's managed to talk her other half into leaving Def Jam and starting a new label with her has the professional booty shaker been hit with a lawsuit by the UK's own piece-of-toast-over-seeing-a-ghost singer Des'ree. Why? Beyonce has covered Des'ree's song 'I'm Kissing You' and released it on the re-issued version of Bidet without obtaining proper clearance.

In the lawsuit filed in Manhattan Federal Court, Des'ree and her reps claim that Bouncy, along with her record company people, originally tried to work out a deal to use the song but weren't happy with Des'ree's conditions: which included not being able to change the title or make a music video for the song. Ms Knowles and her camp allegedly took no notice and recorded the song and video without permission AND renamed it "Still in Love (Kissing You)."

Be interesting to see how this one pans out. Des'ree's got a history of suing people over her songs - she's previously sued Janet Jackson for 'Got Til It's Gone' (which was heavily influenced by Des'ree's 'Feel So High') but will she win this one? Will she see a ghost? Or will she have her preferred piece of toast? As soon as I know any more, I'll let you know.
