LOBEL SUES


Steve Lobel, who oversees the Grammy-winning group Bone, Thugs-N-Harmony, says he was hurt at Kanye West's star-studded 30th birthday bash is suing luxury clothier Louis Vuitton, which hosted the event.

Steve was among the glitterati partying with West at Vuitton's Fifth Ave. store on June 7, 2007, when a temporary panel fell off the wall onto his chrome dome, the suit charges.

Lobel is demanding unspecified damages from the company, who, he claims, used unstable wall panels to "obscure the store's merchandise and create a club look."

The suit, filed in Queens Supreme Court, also names Manhattan events promoter Tony Berger, of Relevent Group LLC.

"We were aware of the incident. We reported it to our insurance carrier, and it is being handled by them," Berger said.
