Russell Simmons Refutes Theft Allegations

Hip hop moguls and brothers Russell Simmons and Rev. Run have been accused of stealing millions by a former business partner. Rasheed Young, President of Run Athletics, sent the Simmons brothers a letter where he claims they funneled revenue from the Pastry footwear line--which is affiliated with Run's daughters, Angela and Vanessa.

Russell has fired back at Young's allegations.

"[Rasheed] worked for me...I fought to keep his job ... and I'm sorry he's disgruntled, but that's what happens," Simmons told TMZ. "Anyone can say anything if a celebrity's name's attached to it ... there's nothing I can do about it ... it's false."

"We never stole any money from anybody," Simmons claims.
