LIL' KIM BARRED FROM ST. KITTS GIG BY JUDGE
Hip-hop superstar Lil' Kim was been barred from leaving her native America to perform a gig in the Caribbean by a federal judge on Friday.
Judge Gerard Lynch told the hitmaker she could not travel to the island of St. Kitts to perform alongside Busta Rhymes and Ginuwine on Saturday.
The 29-year-old faces charges of lying to a grand jury over an gunfight incident in February 2001 outside radio station Hot 97 in Manhattan, which reportedly involved members of her entourage.
Her lawyer Mel Sachs argued that the rapper was already contracted to do the performance and "a substantial amount of money was involved."
However, Judge Lynch said: "The ability to escape jurisdiction, if someone is so inclined, is too easy, too tempting and too much risk."
