Chuck Redd hosted and performed at the Kennedy Center’s annual Christmas Eve concerts for years, but he bowed out of performing at last December’s planned gig, citing “the defiant and illegal name change happening to the Kennedy Center.” The Kennedy Center — or the Trump Kennedy Center, as it was then temporarily known — subsequently sued Redd for breach of contract. The org, which has been taken over by Trump allies, made a show of threatening to sue Redd, and then following through on it. Popular on VarietyIn June, D.C. Superior Court Judge Tanya Jones Bosier tossed the lawsuit, saying there was no signed contract to be breached. The Kennedy Center had argued that he had “agreed to a written contract” to play the gig for $6,500, regardless of whether he actually signed it.
