Des'ree News

Beyonce is at the center of a lawsuit brought by Des'ree, according to reports.

The former Destiny's Child star faces a demand for damages over the use of the song "I'm Kissing You," which was originally recorded by the '90s British soul diva.

A different version featured on Beyonce's B'Day album last year, with a new title of "Still In Love (I'm Kissing You)."

In the case, which was filed at Manhattan's Federal Court yesterday, Des'ree demanded $150,000 in damages and an immediate end to the distribution of the song.

She also claims the two parties originally discussed the possibility of agreeing a cover before Knowles decided to go ahead without reaching any terms.
