The Chipmunk

Do you know which Chipmunk wore glasses? The answer is easy! It’s Simon. Did you watch Million Dollar Money Drop tonight?
In other “Chipmunks” news, the owner of the Alvin and the Chipmunks franchise, is suing EMI Music for allegedly failing to pay appropriate royalties on a boxed set of Chipmunks music featuring 24 songs.
Ross Bagdasarian, Sr. created the Chipmunks in 1958 but his son Ross Bagdasarian, Jr. now owns the company.
As for the suit with EMI, Bagdasarian Jr. demands damages for breach of contract and copyright infringement. Each song on the set is possibly subject to statutory damages of up to $150,000, which could mean $3.6 million he could collect.
Bagsasarian Jr. sued last year over the latest Chipmunks movie, saying he was due half of the $200 million it grossed.
