Prep school twat can’t manage his money and, even funnier, is somehow unable to pull off simple stunt perfected by uneducated British boys 35 years earlier:
In early 2008, the rock band 30 Seconds to Mars was in the midst of contract re-negotiations with EMI Records when the private equity firm Terra Firma took over the troubled label and the friendly tone of the proceedings changed.
Mired in US$2.7 million in debt despite having sold 2.5 million copies of their sophomore album, the band attempted to exit their contract through a legal loophole.
EMI’s new owners responded by having EMI subsidiary Virgin Records launch a $30 million breach of contract lawsuit against the Los Angeles-based trio.
