DMX to Lose New York Townhouse Over Bad Doggy Deal

DMX isn't just in the doghouse, but the troubled rapper will be minus a house, thanks to a New York judge. After failing to shell out $281,000 he allegedly owes a dog clothing company, X is being forced to sell his New York townhouse to clear his debt.

According to reports, the rapper pulled out of a promotional campaign for the doggy clothing line in 2004 and is now being ordered to make good on the canine contract. The swanky 5th Avenue townhouse, which the rapper purchased in 2001, is due to be auctioned off on August 13.

In other X news, the rapper was arrested in Miami on Monday for driving without a valid driver's license.
