kanye west and company sues Saint Pablo Tour insurers $10 million over cancellation of tour

Kanye West and his touring company have filed a $10 million lawsuit against Saint Pablo Tour insurers after canceling several shows. In court documents obtained by E! News, the rapper's team is alleging breach of contract and breach of good faith and fair dealing. "More than eight months later, the insurers have neither paid on the multi-million dollar claim nor denied the claim," Kanye's team writes in court documents. "Nor have they provided anything approaching a coherent explanation about why they have not paid, or any indication if they will ever pay or even make a coverage decision." 

Lawyer Howard King wrote in court papers: "They [have not] provided anything approaching a coherent explanation about why they have not paid, or any indication if they will ever pay or even make a coverage decision, implying that Kanye's use of marijuana may provide them with the basis to deny the claim."
According to legal papers, the 40-year-old spent "hundreds of thousands of dollars" on insurance with Lloyd's to cover the costs of a cancellation but hasn't received any payment yet. Kanye's Saint Pablo Tour was set to run until 31 December but was called off after the rapper spent eight days in a neuropsychiatric centre at UCLA in Los Angeles. Mr King, who represents Kanye West's company, denies any allegations that cannabis use led to his "serious, debilitating medical condition" as an "unsupportable contention".

Kanye West was admitted to hospital after a series of erratic comments on stage last November, including alleging that JAY-Z was sending hitmen to kill him and ranting that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg hadn't paid his $53m (£40m) debt. The rapper also told an audience in California that he hadn't voted in the US election but would have backed Donald Trump.
