Superstar firm GSO Business Management is claiming that Jonathan Schwartz, one of its business managers, stole $4.7 million from client Alanis Morissette. Other GSO/Schwartz clients include Beyonce and Mariah Carey.

Schwartz claimed that he withdrew the cash so that Alanis could invest in a marijuana growing business. GSO says the story didn't check out, according to [TMZ.](http://www.tmz.com/2016/05/16/alanis-morissette-lawsuit-money-business-manager/?ref=hypebot.com) For her part, Morissette denies that she ever asked Schwartz to invest in growing pot.

The suit says Schwartz stole the money to support his lifestyle, including a $50,000 vacation to Bora Bora and a $75,000 gambling debt at a casino in the Bahamas.
