Verne Troyer Sues TMZ for $20 Million

Source: www.celebritysmackblog.com

Verne Troyer, a.k.a. ‘Mini-Me’, is suing gossip website TMZ for publishing a slice of his supposedly “stolen” sex-tap yesterday.

Troyer filed a $20 million lawsuit against TMZ Thursday saying they violated his rights by publishing (TMZ.com) and airing (TMZ TV) parts of his sex tape. He also claims they violated his right of publicity and misappropriated his name and likeness. You know he hates being called mini-me!

The pint sized actor claims (as do they all) that his sex tape was stolen and miraculously ended up in the possession of the slimy dude, Kevin Blatt, who busted out Paris Hilton’s infamous, “One Night in Paris”. He is also named in the lawsuit.

Troyer is requesting an injunction stopping any further distribution of the video.
