Lil' Kim was awarded a half million dollars by a judge yesterday after winning a lawsuit against former friend, Junior M.A.F.I.A. rapper Lil' Cease.

Kim sued Cease (born James Lloyd) and his company, Ground Zero Entertainment - which puts out street DVDs - for wrongly capitalizing on her fame with a film about the crew.

She also put the breaks on a second DVD, The Chronicles of Junior M.A.F.I.A Part II: Reloaded, with a court order forcing Cease to stop production.

Lil' Kim had originally sought $6 million in damages from Cease, who testified against her in a criminal trial in which she was convicted for perjury. Kim (born Kimberly Jones) was sentenced to one year and a day in prison for lying to a federal grand jury about a 2001 shootout that took place outside of New York's Hot 97 radio station.

Most recently though, Kim made headlines when repo men showed up at her front door to confiscate her silver Bentley due to delinquent payments. A rep for Kim said the car was a gift and the matter was being resolved.
