Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton is being sued again – this time over a topless Jennifer Aniston pic which appeared on his site.
Universal studios said that the shot of Aniston, which ended up on the cutting room floor, was “misappropriated and illegally copied,” and that Perez “illegally obtained a copy of all or part of the stolen footage.”
Apparently, the studio sent a letter to Perez, requesting that he remove the footage in question from his site. He refused, and the footage is still there.
Perez claims that the picture was all over the web, and that the accusations were “unfair.”
His attorney released a statement: “It is unfortunate that Universal has chosen to bring this lawsuit as our client has done nothing wrong.” He added that Perez did take the offensive photograph down at Universal’s request.
“Our client questions whether this lawsuit was in fact motivated by Ms. Aniston as a result of her disdain for viewpoints expressed about her on the site.” (He called her “Maniston”)
