Kyle Massey sues 'Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp'

Kyle Massey has filed a lawsuit against a producer of "Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp". If you guys remember, last year, it was announced that Kyle and Bristol Palin were starring in a Reality show together.

Now we know what happened: Kyle and his brother were kicked off the show last minute and it was retitled as "Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp." OMG! I thought they were dating! I wanted to see jungle fever.

From TMZ:

In the suit, filed today in federal court in L.A., the Massey brothers claim they met Bristol on "Dancing with the Stars" ... and developed the idea for a show in which the brothers help Palin meet the challenges of child rearing while adjusting to life in L.A.

But according to the suit, a producer named David McKenzie hijacked the project, cut the Masseys out of the show and repackaged the program as "Bristol Palin: Life's a Tripp" ... which is set to premiere tonight on Lifetime.

The Masseys are demanding monetary compensation -- claiming they were not properly compensated or credited for creating the show.

Bristol is not listed as a defendant in the lawsuit.
