Tameka Vindicated?

During All-Star weekend Usher's ex-wife Tameka Raymond got into a nasty run-in with her former publicist, Rochelle Brown of The V Firm PR. Apparently, Tameka accused Rochelle of stealing $20,000.00 worth of clothing from her. Atlanta blogger Sandra Rose posted the allegations last week [click here if you missed that]. This week another former client of Rochelle's is speaking out about being ripped off by her.

Atlanta celebrity chef D’Andre McCarter reached out to Hello Beautiful  to share is experience with Rochelle. D'Andre says,

The Launch Party for The Real Private Chefs of The World was scheduled for October 17, 2009 but was eventually cancelled due to the un-professionalism of Rochelle Brown and The V Firm PR after a electronic deposit was made into the account of Ms. Rochelle Brown and The V Firm PR all communications stopped. Similar to Ms. Foster after many attempts to contact Ms. Brown she would not answer her phone, respond to texts or emails it was like she basically disappeared off the face of the earth with the deposit. Several weeks before the event Ms. Brown could not be reached for a progress report or would not contact Chef D’Andre to let him know how funds were allocated in preparations for his event. The event date came and went and still with no communication from Ms. Brown it wasn’t until the attorney for The Real Private Chefs of The World contacted Ms. Brown were they able to get a response. As soon as the county in which Rochelle Brown and The V Firm PR is set up to do business in can be determined a civil suit will be pursued.
