Star Says Hot 97 Host Taunted Him

by: Mark Lelinwalla

Star’s lawyer Ben Brafman has cited several on-air racist remarks made by rival Hot 97 morning host Miss Jones about his client. Brafman told the New York Daily News that Jones called Star’s mother a “prostitute” and his father a “tar black Sambo.” Brafman also said Jones called Star an “alcoholic” and a “f****t who liked boys.” right Despite his client Star offering listeners $500 to tell him where Envy’s daughter went to school, Brafman believes the offending Hot 97 DJs should have been arrested for their remarks as well. Star reportedly had a four-year $17 million contract with Power 105.1. Brafman, who says none of Star’s comments constitute a crime, is seeking to have criminal charges dropped against his fired client.
