War of words between singer Vanessa Amorosi and her mum

A property in Narre Warren on the outskirts of Melbourne is at the centre of a bitter family feud, which has turned ugly in a Victorian supreme court showdown.

Singer Vanessa Amorosi is battling it out with her mum Joyleen Robinson.

It centres on a conversation Amorosi's mum says happened in 2001 after the then-teen became a household name.

She claims Vanessa said "I'm going to buy this house for you, mum. It's perfect for you"

The singer denies it and wants her mum out.
