Jailed New York jeweller Jacob Arabov’s company is suing ex-Fugees star Wyclef Jean over non-payment of bills.

Lawyers for Jacob and Company Incorporated claim the hip-hop star owes money for watches and jewellery he bought.

In court papers filed in New York on Tuesday, the jewellery firm’s bosses claim Wyclef `bought’ several items between March 2002 and January 2006 for a total of $765,100 and still owes almost $320,000, despite “repeated demands for payment”.

Amy Winehouse’s father Mitch is furious about reports stating he’s convinced the star’s recent hospital dash was the result of her being spiked with ecstasy - insisting he never made the claims.

The Back To Black hitmaker was admitted to hospital on Monday after she fell ill at her London home.

The singer’s spokesman subsequently released a statement blaming her condition on an adverse reaction to medication she is taking to help kick her drug addiction.
