Bad day: Chris Rock is sued over "Good Hair" - Filmmaker claims comedian saw her film, "My Nappy Roots" and copied it


LOS ANGELES - Chris Rock’s new film, “Good Hair,” is having a bad day.

The funnyman is being sued over his new movie, a documentary which looks into the lengths members of the black community go to in order to change their hair, by a filmmaker who claims a film she made — and allegedly screened for the actor — is similar enough to Rock’s movie to be considered copyright infringement to the tune of at least $5 million.

According to the lawsuit filed by Regina Kimbell in United States District Court, Central District of California, Kimbell claims Rock’s new film is very similar to her own film, “My Nappy Roots: A Journey Through Black Hair-itage.”

Damn Mr. Rock, I hope you were "ORIGINAL" and didn't bootleg before it hit the big screen! For the FULL STORY just click the Blog Title.
