R&B singer Johnny Gill is being sued by the CEO of his record label for talking too much smack on Twitter.

New Edition singer Johnny Gill waged a ferociously bitter Twitter war against the CEO of his record label last week — calling her “f**king nuts” — and now she’s taking his ass to court.

The producer, Ira DeWitt — wife of St. Louis Cardinals owner Bill DeWitt — claims Johnny was PISSED when a song rumored to be on his upcoming album was leaked on the Internet … and he wrongly blamed her.

According to the lawsuit, filed Thursday in L.A. County Superior Court, DeWitt claims she had nothing to do with the leak — but Gill attacked her on Twitter anyway … calling her “deranged” and “f**kng nuts.”

DeWitt also claims Gill tweeted defamatory statements about her business … saying her record company is a sham and that she only liked the leaked recording because she had a “hard on” for one of the song’s producers.

DeWitt claims Gill has damaged her reputation — so she’s suing for unspecified damages … AND she wants the judge to force Gill to stop trashing her on Twitter.

Calls to Gill have not been returned.
