Despite published
reports, Murder Inc. CEO Irving "Irv Gotti" Lorenzo and rapper Jeffery
"Ja Rule" Atkins are not owners in the clothing line, ErvingGeoffrey.
The two have been
seen donning various denim jackets and T-shirts from the denim clothing company,
but Rule said that they are spokesmodels for the clothing line, due to the coincidental
likeness of the clothing lines name and their first names.
"ErvinGeoffrey?
Nah we don’t own it. They stuffed our pockets nice to rock the clothes because
of the name," Ja-Rule told AllHipHop.com. "Matter of fact, they hit
us with a nice amount of cash."
Rule is putting
his acting career in high gear, starring in "Scary Movie 3," "Back
in the Day," opposite Ving Rhames.
Ja-Rule joined
the cast of "Shall We Dance?" which will also star Jennifer Lopez.
