Cindy's husband sued

Cindy Crawford's husband, Rande Gerber, is in legal hot water over a new business venture - and it all comes down to the word "sky".

According to celebrity website TMZ.COM, restaurateur Gerber signed a contract with Morgans Hotel Group - the company that owns Hollywood hotspot Skybar, which Gerber once managed - forbidding him from incorporating the word "sky" into any of his future ventures.

Gerber's decision to design a new in-flight cocktail menu, Midnight Sky, for Delta Airlines has, however, ruffled feathers at Morgans. Lawyers for the group have filed a $500,000 lawsuit for breach of contract and unjust enrichment in Los Angeles Superior Court.

Gerber's defence? He had no control over the naming of the new range.
