Pastor Mase’s struggle single just cost him more money. A judge ordered the former Bad Boy rapper to pay a model whose pic he swiped for his quickly forgotten “Why Can’t We” single, but the financial hit won’t be as bad as it could have been.
Reports TMZ:
Stephanie Delgado sued the rapper-turned-reverend-turned-rapper for stealing a pic from her Instagram page and plastering it on advertisements to promote his new single, “Why Can’t We.”
Delgado wanted $60,000 in damages … presumably because she felt the pic was effective in hawking the single.
Mase never responded to her lawsuit so the judge entered a default judgment. But the judge wanted her to prove how much the pic was worth. She said she had once made $25,000 for a commercial shoot to promote an artist’s music. The judge asked for proof but she said it was all done in cash and only knew she made the deal with a guy named Woo.
The judge decided a fair price for the pic was $7,500.
Yes, Mase is still rapping.
