The Wheard: TMZ
WANTED: Assistant to rapper Flo Rida … must be willing to work 65 hours a week … answer phones … organize mail, etc … and pays $3.08 per hour … this according to a new lawsuit.
A woman named Mahogany Miller just sued the rapper — claiming she busted her ass as his administrative assistant … and in exchange he paid her less than a high schoolbabysitter.
In her suit, Miller — who claims she started the gig back in August — alleges she eventually confronted her boss over the long hours and low wages … and she was FIRED less than 24 hours after raising the issue.
Miller is suing for unspecified damages. Calls to Flo have not been returned.
***UPDATE***
Flo’s lawyer Sandy Becher claims she’s delusional — telling us, the girl was never officially hired as an employee in Flo’s office … she was an unpaid volunteer, who begged to work for him as a first step in the music biz.
According to the lawyer, she was unqualified for an official position, so Flo took her under his wing as an intern-type worker — occasionally paying for her lunches or gas money, but nothing was ever guaranteed.
What’s more — Flo’s lawyer says the rapper didn’t fire Miller because she asked for money … he fired her because her “behavior was inappropriate for the workplaceenvironment.” He wouldn’t specify why.
Flo tells us, “This is ridiculous that I gave someone an opportunity out of the goodness of my heart and now sadly I am being falsely targeted.”
Editor’s Note: I interviewed Flo-Rida, and he seemed like a sweet, humble guy….
