Michel’le’s biopic, “Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Me.” will air
Saturday on Lifetime. And Dr Dre, who once dated Michel’le is
threatening to sue Sony Pictures Television if the movie shows him
beating Miche’le. Miche’le has claimed many times that she was abused by
Dr Dre during their relationship. Read the full report from TMZ after
the cut…
Dr Dre has delivered a clear threat over an
upcoming TV movie that shows him beating his ex-GF senseless … he’s
threatening to sue if it airs.
Sony Pictures is set to release
“Surviving Compton: Dre, Suge & Michel’le” … a film that depicts
Dre as a woman beater. We’ve learned Dre’s legal team fired off a cease
and desist letter … demanding that Sony back off, if it doesn’t want
to end up in court.
According to the letter, Dre flatly denies
ever abusing Michel’le. It makes reference to the fact that they dated
around 30 years ago and she never hinted at abuse or any type of violent
behavior on his part. They also say she never sought medical treatment
or filed a police report.
We’re told Dre’s character in the film
is extremely violent — attacking Michel’le by pulling her hair,
punching her in the face and even pulling a gun on her.
Dre’s attorneys have also warned Michel’le to back off. The film is set for release next week.
