Re: Eminem & 50 Cent Bodygaurd Is Being Sued:
Eminem & 50 Cent Bodygaurd Is Being Sued: A Shady Records bodyguard is being sued after allegedly beating a clubgoer at a Manhattan nightclub two years ago.
Scott Cherry, a 7 foot, 400 pounds bouncer who routinely protects Eminem and 50 Cent, allegedly attacked Micheal Esposito, a Department of Environmental Protection employee as he was partying at Union Square's Spa. On February 10, 2002, Esposito was leaning against the bar when Cherry suddenly approached him and asked him to leave before punching him.
"I had no idea why he asked me to leave, so when I asked him, he attacked me for no reason at all," Esposito told the Daily News. "I put my drink down and, boom, I was struck in the nose. There was blood everywhere. My nose was broken."
Esposito is suing for $3 million and hopes to collect money to help pay the two surgeries he underwent to repair his broken nose. On the other hand, Cherry claims that Esposito hit him first.
"I did not strike Scott Cherry, or anyone else on the premises," Esposito told the News. "This was a completely unprovoked attack."
