'LION KING' BLING SUIT

One of the Broadway producers behind "The Lion King" is being sued for allegedly bouncing more than $2 million in checks to a Madison Avenue jeweler.
The jeweler, Graff Diamonds, also said that when it tried to get back $300,000 of its bling from the producer, theatrical-family scion Scott Nederlander, he claimed that the gems were "lost," according to the company's suit in Manhattan federal court.
