I think at this time BB will be so angry on this shortcoming of Ryan Seacret's company...BB got bad year of 2013
Just wait, Ryan Seacret's company has yet to provide the some evidence to disproof Black Berry's claim....
I am reading about this news almost daily, but I suppose Black Berry will take very strict action and ask to compensate for this.
