Kid Laroi's mum arrested, pleads not guilty to fraud (The Sydney Morning Herald)

The pop star has detailed the lengths his mother had to go to make ends meet, but his rags-to-riches story usually skips over his early years in private ...

While not mentioning Korolak’s claims, Campbell told her thousands of followers she was changing the name to Financial Firepower. Which is why I had no choice but to take legal action.” It also makes reading this year’s lists of nominees all the more interesting, especially when you consider which names have not made it. Oops. Was it something we wrote? As PS revealed, Charlton Howard has re-signed with Hollywood super manager Scott “Scooter” Braun, having gone through several managers over a relatively short few years. “I don’t want to be a part of the people who misuse or degrade the word of ‘foreplay’, especially around the sacredness of sex, in particular, for women,” she wrote. To PS, the term “financial foreplay” sounds about as enticing as “Barnaby Joyce nude”. However, an attempt to make finance sexy has set the scene for a Federal Court showdown in November where celebrity social media “finfluencer”, financial planner and television personality Canna Campbell of Sugarmumma fame, is being sued for alleged trademark infringement. Previously, it was up to the public to vote for whom they believed should be in the running for various “most popular” categories, but now that power has gone to the television networks themselves. The matter has been listed for mention on June 27, while Howard – who has been living in Los Angeles with her sons Charlton and 15-year-old Austin for about three years – has been excused from attending court if she is represented by her lawyer. The Kid Laroi’s “rags to riches” tale has been well worked since the teenager’s meteoric rise to fame, from stories of couch-surfing with his mother in public housing estates and cutting his hip hop teeth on the tough streets of Waterloo. Several of the other mothers fondly remember Sloane, who was described to PS by one of them this week as being “a lovely, very attractive and stylish woman”. She would often be spotted driving a luxurious sports car when Charlton was dropped off at school or to friends’ homes for play dates. While her teenage pop-star son Charlton Howard has been tearing up stadiums as The Kid Laroi, his hip-hop “stage mum” Sloane Howard has been making waves of her own: turning herself in to Sydney police over an outstanding arrest warrant just days after returning to her former home town.
