*Things aren’t looking too good for rapper The Game. The scene is set for him to be taken into custody if he shows for a scheduled concert tonight. A judge has empowered US Marshals to arrest him after he disobeyed a court order.
The Game (real name: Jayceon Taylor) is currently in Oregon and is set to perform in Portland tonight.
Earlier this month, the judge found The Game in contempt of court for failing to appear in court. Apparently The Game blew off the court appearance by claiming he was too busy.
As he has now come to learn, that was a serious and ill-advised move. Here’s more via The Blast:
The Game previously filed court docs saying he had contractual obligations during October, including the final stretch of “Nick Cannon Presents: Wild ‘N Out Live.”
Game claimed to have been trying to get all his financial information to turn over to Priscilla Rainey after he had been ordered to do. He asked the judge to allow his lawyer to represent him during the hearing.

The judge wasn’t impressed and instead found the rapper in contempt and issued a bench warrant for his arrest.
Priscilla Rainey was a contestant on The Game’s VH1 reality show “She’s Got Game.” In her 2015 lawsuit, she claimed that during production, the rapper sexually assaulted her by forcefully reaching his hand inside her dress to rub her bare vagina and buttocks. A jury awarded her $7 million in damages.
On top of all that, Rainey has accused The Game of refusing to turn over financial docs and at one point demanded he be found in contempt. She claimed he has yet to pay a dime on the judgment.
Meanwhile, The Game demanded a new trial saying the judgment was too high, but the judge recently shut him down saying the evidence proved Rainey’s case to the jury.
We think we can safely bet The Game now wishes he had kept his hands to himself. That was a potentially financially ruining move.
